Upregulation of the tight junction protein occludin: effects on ventilation-induced lung injury and mechanisms of action
BACKGROUND: Occludin, a tight junction protein, plays an important role in maintaining the integrity of the lung epithelial barrier; however, its role in ventilation-induced lung injury has not been explored. Here, we measured the expression of occludin with different tidal volumes. Our study indica...
