Holey barrier: claudins and the regulation of brain endothelial permeability

Endothelial tight junctions (TJs) are an important functional part of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). In this issue, Nitta et al. (2003) demonstrate that claudin-5, a transmembrane protein of TJs, is a critical determinant of BBB permeability in mice. Unexpectedly, knockout of claudin-5 did not resul...
