CD24 regulated gene expression and distribution of tight junction proteins is associated with altered barrier function in oral epithelial monolayers
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Control of intercellular penetration of microbial products is critical for the barrier function of oral epithelia. We demonstrated that CD24 is selectively and strongly expressed in the cells of the epithelial attachment to the tooth...
