The tight junction molecules expression and localization in mouse placenta

Ahn Changhwan , Jeung Eui-Bae

Introduction: Tight junctions (TJs) are composed of a branching network of sealing strands. TJs regulate paracellular conductance and ionic selectivity. The established paracellular transport barriers that control transportation of molecules within intercellular space.Methods: We examined expression of mouse placental claudin family. Pregnant C57/BL6 mice were used in this study and TJ proteins including Claudin-1 to Claudin-24 expressions. The pregnant ...
