CLDN2 — TNF
Text-mined interactions from Literome
Mankertz et al., Cell Tissue Res 2009
:
Our aim has been to characterize the molecular mechanisms regulating the expression of the channel forming tight-junctional protein
claudin-2 in
response to the pro-inflammatory cytokine
tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) , which is elevated, for example, in active Crohn 's disease ... The
claudin-2 protein level was
increased by
TNFalpha without changes in subcellular tight-junctional protein localization as revealed by confocal laser scanning microscopy ... Thus, the
up-regulation of
claudin-2 by
TNFalpha is attributable to the regulation of the expression of the gene, as a result of which epithelial barrier function is disturbed, for example, during chronic intestinal inflammation

In addition,
TNF-a induced a downregulation of claudin-1,
claudin-2 , claudin-4, and occludin as well as activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase signaling in T-84 but not Caco-2 cells, which was reversed by adalimumab
