Abstract
⺠Apical calcium removal produces a modest effect on epithelial tight junctions (TJ). ⺠Following an initial depletion, apical calcium level recovers. ⺠Prolonged apical calcium exhaustion exhibits a larger, but moderate effect on TJ. ⺠Basolateral calcium depletion leads to notably large effect on TJ. ⺠Polyacrylic acid does not alter basolateral calcium and modestly affects TJ.
