Occludin’s role in mammalian tight junction activity was examined by ‘labeling’ the occludin
pool with immunologically detectable chick occludin. This was accomplished by first …

The function of occludin (Occ) in the tight junction is undefined. To gain insight into its role in
epithelial cell biology, occludin levels in Madin-Darby canine kidney II cells were …

A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to estimate the effect of herb species
on milk production and urinary nitrogen (UN) excretion from grazing dairy cows. Grazing …

Background In South Africa, sputum smear microscopy has been replaced with Xpert MTB/RIF
as the initial diagnostic test for tuberculosis. In a pragmatic parallel cluster-randomised …

Xenograft cell transplantation into immunodeficient mice has become the gold standard for
assessing pre-clinical efficacy of cancer drugs, yet direct visualization of single-cell …

Occludin and 18 distinct members of the claudin family are tetra-span transmembrane
proteins that are localized in cell-specific tight junctions (TJs). A previous study showed that …

Background An outbreak of listeriosis was identified in South Africa in 2017. The source
was unknown. Methods We conducted epidemiologic, trace-back, and environmental …

Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS) is a common pediatric malignancy of muscle, with
relapse being the major clinical challenge. Self-renewing tumor-propagating cells (TPCs) …

the lower band is the high mannose form of FcRn usually found in the endoplasmic reticulum, …

Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a common childhood cancer that shares features with
developing skeletal muscle. Yet, the conservation of cellular hierarchy with human muscle …
