FIGURE 7:

Cldn3 and Rab25 have additive effect on increasing barrier function and the lumen size. (A) HPPL-Cldn3+Rab25 shows stronger barrier function than HPPL-Cldn3 or HPPL-Rab25. Paracellular efflux of 4-kDa FITC-dextran is further decreased by coexpression of Cldn3 and Rab25 in HPPL as compared with expression of either of them. (B) HPPL-Cldn3+Rab25 and HPPL-Grhl2 show similar barrier function. (C) HPPL-Cldn3+Rab25 form significantly larger cysts than HPPL-Cldn3 or HPPL-Rab25. The size of lumen is further increased by coexpression of Cldn3 and Rab25 in HPPL as compared with expression of either of them. A dot plot for a representative culture is shown. The diameter of the lumen was measured for >50 cysts per culture. Experiment was repeated for three times independently. (D) HPPL-Grhl2 forms significantly larger cysts than HPPL-Cldn3+Rab25.
