Comparison of mucosal absorption-enhancing activity between a claudin-3/-4 binder and a broadly specific claudin binder.

Abstract:

:Intercellular spaces between adjacent mucosal epithelial cells are sealed by tight junctions (TJs) that prevent the free movement of solutes across the epithelium. Claudins (CLs), a family of 27 integral membrane proteins, are essential components for TJ seals. We previously used a CL-3/-4 binder, the C-terminal fragment of Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin (C-CPE), to show that CL modulation is a promising method to enhance mucosal absorption. Recently, by using a C-CPE mutant library, we developed a CL binder (m19) with broad specificity to CL-1, -2, -4, and -5. Here, we compared the mucosal absorption-enhancing activity of C-CPE and m19. Both CL binders enhanced jejunal absorption of dextran with a molecular mass of 4000 and 150,000 Da and nasal absorption of dextran with a mass of 4000 Da but not 150,000 Da in rats. Although both binders showed similar nasal absorption-enhancing activity of dextran (4000 Da), m19 exhibited a more potent jejunal absorption-enhancing effect than that of C-CPE. These findings suggest that mucosal absorption-enhancing activity may be modified by modulating CL specificity.

  • Genetic evidence for involvement of two distinct nonhomologous end-joining pathways in repair of topoisomerase II-mediated DNA damage.

    abstract::In vertebrate cells, DNA double-strand breaks are efficiently repaired by homologous recombination or nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ). The latter pathway relies on Ku (the Ku70/Ku86 heterodimer), DNA-PKcs, Artemis, Xrcc4, and DNA ligase IV (Lig4). Here, we show that a human pre-B cell line nullizygous for Lig4 exhibi...
