Abstract
The TJ is a highly dynamic rate-limiting barrier for passive transepithelial solute flow. It is not only physiologically regulated but is modulated in various disease states as well. Such modulations occur as a result of epithelial cell interactions with immune cells or immune cell products and thus epithelial barrier function appears to be regulated in disease states.This publication has 51 references indexed in Scilit:
