Fig. 4From: α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist GTS-21 attenuates DSS-induced intestinal colitis by improving intestinal mucosal barrier functionGTS-21 improves the tight junction (TJ) proteins expressions and distribution in Caco2 monolayers. A Western blot analysis of Caco2 cellular TJ proteins (ZO-1, claudin-1, occludin, JAM-1) expressions level in each group with stimulation of different concentrations of TNF-α for 24 h. B Western blot analysis of Caco2 cellular TJ proteins (ZO-1, claudin-1, occludin, JAM-1) expressions level in different groups. C Representative immunofluorescence of ZO-1 and JAM-1 (red), claudin-1 and occludin (green) in Caco-2 monolayers. (DAPI nuclear staining). Magnification, ×400. Scale bar, 100 nmBack to article page
