A 22-amino-acid peptide regulates tight junctions through occludin and cell apoptosis

Occludin is a structural protein of tight junctions (TJ) in the blood–testis barrier (BTB). A 22-amino-acid peptide (22AA) in the second extracellular loop can reversibly regulate TJ, but its regulatory mechanism is unknown. In this study, a 22AA-induced TJ destruction animal model was constructed t...
