Junctional adhesion molecule-1 (JAM-1) forms part of the tight junction between adjacent
endothelial cells. Using microarray technology, we showed previously that JAM-1 was …

Aims Establishing biochemical markers of pre-hypertension and early hypertension could
help earlier diagnostics and therapeutic intervention. We assess dynamics of junctional …

Rationale: Intercellular tight junctions are crucial for correct regulation of the endothelial
barrier. Their composition and integrity are affected in pathological contexts, such as …

Since the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS) is a pivotal region for regulating the set‐point of
arterial pressure, we proposed a role for it in the development of neurogenic hypertension …

Human essential hypertension is a complex polygenic trait with underlying genetic
components that remain unknown. Since the brainstem structure—the nucleus of the solitary …

The junctional adhesion molecule (JAM)-C is a widely expressed adhesion molecule
regulating cell adhesion, cell polarity and inflammation. JAM-C expression and function in …

Objectives Recent studies have demonstrated that pro-inflammatory molecules such as
junctional adhesion molecules-1 are highly expressed in the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS) …

Essential hypertension is idiopathic although it is accepted as a complex polygenic trait with
underlying genetic components, which remain unknown. Our supposition is that …

Junctional adhesion molecule A (JAM-A) is a unique tight junction (TJ) transmembrane
protein that under basal conditions maintains endothelial cell-cell interactions but under …

Junctional adhesion molecule-A (JAM-A) is one component of tight junctions which are
involved in important processes like paracellular permeability, cell polarity, adhesion …
