Abstract:
Tight junctions(TJ) are the primary junctions between intestinal epithelia.TJ serves as the maintenance of epithelial cell polarity and the rate-limiting barrier to passive movement of hydrophilic solutes across intestinal epithelia.The disrupture of TJ may cause or promote some diseases.This review is about structure,biological functions,molecular regulating mechanisms of intestinal epithelial tight junctions and some related diseases.
