- junction
Intercellular junctions mediate adhesion and
communication between adjoining
endothelial and epithelial cells. In the
endothelium, junctional complexes comprise
tight junctions, adherens junctions, and gap
junctions. The expression and organization
of these complexes depend on the type of
vessels and the permeability requirements
of perfused organs. Gap junctions are
communication structures, which allow the
passage of small molecular weight solutes
between neighboring cells. Tight junctions
serve the major functional purpose of
providing a "barrier" and a "fence" within the
membrane, by regulating paracellular
permeability and maintaining cell polarity.
Adherens junctions play an important role in
contact inhibition of endothelial cell growth,
paracellular permeability to circulating
leukocytes and solutes. In addition, they are
required for a correct organization of new
vessels in angiogenesis. Extensive research
in the past decade has identified several
molecular components of the tight and
adherens junctions, including integral
membrane and intracellular proteins. These
