Glucocorticoids Regulate Tight Junction Permeability of Lung Epithelia by Modulating Claudin 8.

abstract：:Hyperplasia and cell migration of smooth muscle are features of both airway and pulmonary vascular diseases. The precise cellular and molecular mechanisms that regulate smooth muscle migration in the lungs remain unknown. In this study, we examined the effect of cAMP-mobilizing agents and steroids on smooth muscle cel...
