Comparison of the function of the tight junctions of endothelial cells and epithelial cells in regulating the movement of electrolytes and macromolecules across the cell monolayer

In cell culture, both endothelial and epithelial cell monolayers have been found to generate structurally similar tight junctional complexes, as assessed by thin section electron microscopy. Although structurally similar, the tight junctional complexes of the two cell types are, at least in part, re...
