Figure 4From: Increased intestinal permeability and tight junction disruption by altered expression and localization of occludin in a murine graft versus host disease model Occludin and ZO-1 expression in the jejunum. Expression of the tight junction proteins occludin (A)) and ZO-1 (B)) in the specimen of the jejunum of GvHD-mice (n = 20) and control animals (n = 18) were analysed by PCR. Mean and SD of occludin (A)) and ZO-1 (B)) expression normalized to the housekeeping gene GAPDH are shown. * indicates p-values < 0.05.Back to article page
