Abstract
Epithelial barrier characterization in occludin-deficiency points against an essential barrier function of occludin within the tight junction strands or to a substitutional redundancy of single tight junction molecules like occludin. A dramatic change in gastric morphology and secretory function indicates that occludin is involved in gastric epithelial differentiation.
