Effect of Urolithin A on TNFα-caused claudin-1 delocalization in HT-29/B6 monolayers. Localization of claudin-1 was studied by confocal laser scanning microscopy in (A) control (B) TNFα (C) urolithin A (UroA) +TNFα and (D) urolithin A-challenged monolayers. Merging of claudin-1 (green) with the TJ marker protein ZO-1 (red) was assessed by z-stack imaging, nuclei are DAPI stained (blue). TNFα caused delocalization of claudin-1 (indicated by white arrows in (B)), while parallel Urolithin A treatment enhanced claudin-1-ZO-1 merging (indicated by white arrows in (C)). Bars indicate 5 µm.
