Our new review on epithelial barrier homeostasis has been published in Trends in Cell Biology(www.cell.com/trends/cell-...)! Please use the following link for free access until May 1: authors.elsevier.com/a/1mlnq3QxxT...
Epithelia cover the body’s surface to form a barrier that segregates the internal
body from the external environment. Tight junctions (TJs) seal the paracellular space
and are crucial for the formatio...
