Sentence examples for barrier function of the septate from inspiring English sources

Further, we found that both adherens junction structure (Figure 6I, J), as well as the transepithelial barrier function of the septate junctions were intact in γCOP mutants (Figure 5P S).

Ulceration could disrupt the mucosal barrier and thereby abrogated the protective barrier function of the epithelium.

A modified barrier dye penetration assay [41] was carried out to determine the barrier function of skin.

Many factors contribute to the barrier function of skin.

Ultimately, the barrier function of epithelium is lost thereby.

Thus, we hypothesized that the four SNPs in grh affect the function of septate junctions by altering the expression of genes encoding septate junction proteins.

Occluding junctions, including vertebrate tight junctions and invertebrate septate junctions, contribute to the epithelial barrier function by restricting free diffusion of solutes through the paracellular route.

The decrease reflects the restoration of the epidermal barrier function.

Specifically, the junctional complexes that provide barrier function – tight junctions (TJs) in vertebrates and septate junctions (SJs) in invertebrates – are positioned differently with respect to the adherens junctions (AJs) (Willott et al., 1993; Woods and Bryant, 1993).

Tricellular junctions are part of the septate junctions in insects and of the tight junctions in vertebrates.

(1) GWA analysis for variation in the MI24 uncovered genes linked to the function of septate junctions, including grh, which encodes a transcription factor required for epithelial barrier formation, and bbg and scrib, which encode PDZ domain-containing, septate junction-associated proteins (Bilder and Perrimon, 2000; Narasimha et al., 2008; Bonnay et al., 2013).
