Sentence examples for cell barrier function from inspiring English sources

Both P0 and P30 maintained their cell barrier function in vivo for as long as 24 weeks; PGH30, for 8 weeks; and PG30, for less than 8 weeks.

Epithelial cell barrier function loss is thought to be the initial inciting event that underlies injury and inflammation in many intestinal disorders, including IBD [19], [20].

In particular, there is clear evidence that FoxO1 is the most important FoxO factor in the vasculature, where it is essential for the regulation of endothelial cell barrier function [49], [50], [51].

It is well recognized that actin cytoskeletal reorganization plays a pivotal role in mediating endothelial cell barrier function and permeability such that actin polymerization and actin stress fiber formation result in increased vascular permeability by inducing paracellular gaps [11], [12], [13], [14], [15].

The intense cellular immune response alters endothelial cell barrier function and is harmful.

Consistent with our hypothesis, knockdown of caspase-14 preserved RPE cell barrier function under HG conditions.

TACE and other protease enzymes are thought to form interlinked "networks" that regulate epithelial cell barrier functions and may display altered functionality in inflammatory conditions, such as sepsis (23), whereas conditional murine TACE knockout appears protective in endotoxic shock (24).

The architectural features, mechanical properties, hydrophilicity, drug-encapsulation efficiency, drug-release pattern, antimicrobial properties, cell barrier functions, in vitro/vivo degradability and biocompatibility were investigated.

Therefore, it has been suggested that HFRS pathogenesis is likely to be a complex multifactorial process that includes contributions from immune responses, platelet dysfunction, disregulation of endothelial cell barrier functions and hosts' genetic factors [ 5- 7].

We report here that K14 expression was observed in both bovine limbus and central cornea and that K14 expression was found to increase in limbal epithelial cells, after air-lifting treatment, a cell culture technique well known to increase cell differentiation and promote cell-cell barrier function [18], [27], [28], [29].

Intriguingly, the precise mechanisms, by which infliximab and adalimumab work, are in part different, such as effects of TNF-α blockade on reverse (outside to inside) intracellular signaling cascade, infiltrating cells, epithelial cells' barrier function [17].
