---|---|---|---|

FRAP analysis was performed on post-confluent MDCK cell populations expressing full-length GFP-occludin protein. Prior to FRAP analysis, cell populations were treated without or with 55 μM H2O2 for 2 h. Derived parameters, t1/2 and % Immobile Fraction, were calculated for each experiment. Results are presented as mean ± SD of derived parameters for the indicated number of independent experiments. Results are representative of studies using at least two separate cell populations.
P < 0.05 compared to 0 μM H2O2
