Tight junctions are intercellular junctions that act as both the barrier (or gate), and the fence.
The barrier function of tight junctions regulates the passage of ions, water, and various macromolecules through paracellular spaces.
The fence function maintains cell polarity, thus, tight junctions work as a fence to prevent intermixing of molecules in the apical membrane with those in the lateral membrane.
Tight junctions are comprised of the membrane proteins occludin, claudins, and JAMs.
Claudins are responsible for the formation of tight junction strands and are connected with the actin cytoskeleton mediated by ZO-1.
Claudin 12 expression has been observed in the lung, brain, kidney, skin, urinary bladder and ear.
