The Effects of Hypoxia and Inflammation on Claudin‐1 in CaCo‐2 Cells as a Model Intestinal Epithelium.

Abstract

The use of hydrocortisone in association with indomethacin is a known risk factor for spontaneous intestinal perforation in extremely low birthweight infants. Hypoxia, inflammation and non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs independently alter apical junctional complexes of epithelial cells. We are interested in understanding the combined effects of hypoxia, inflammation and non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs on the apical junctional complex and barrier integrity in a gastrointestinal epithelial cell model.
