Functions of claudin-7 in human lung cancer
(East Carolina University, 2012)Lung cancer is the second most common cancer and the most common cause of cancer-related death in both men and women in the United States with a very poor overall 5-year survival rate. Nearly 95% of the lung cancer originates ... -
FUNCTIONS OF CLAUDIN-7 IN THE SELF-RENEWAL OF INTESTINAL EPITHELIUM
(East Carolina University, 8/5/2020)Tight junctions (TJ) are located at the most apical region of the junctional complex and contain many integral membrane proteins. Claudin 7 (Cldn7) is a TJ membrane protein located at the apical TJ and basolateral side of ... -

Tight junction claudin-7 protein modulates multiple processes of cancer progression in human lung cancer cells
(East Carolina University, 2016-05-03)Carcinogenesis usually consists of cancer initiation, promotion, and progression. Several tight junction claudin proteins have been identified as tumor suppressors or activators during cancer development. As apical proteins, ...
