Zusammenfassung

Abstract Epithelial barrier properties are determined by three components, namely transcellular permeability, the paracellular pathway, and locally limited peaks of permeability caused by apoptoses. Whereas transcellular permeability is strongly dependent on polarity or specific substrate recognition by membrane receptors and transport proteins, a promising target for specific permeabilization is the tight junction. Within this structure, tetraspan tight junction proteins have been shown to determine paracellular barrier properties, including occludin, tricellulin and the family of claudins. Especially members o…
