Desmoglein 2 regulates the intestinal epithelial barrier via p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase

Abstract Intestinal epithelial barrier properties are maintained by a junctional complex consisting of tight junctions (TJ), adherens junctions (AJ) and desmosomes. Desmoglein 2 (Dsg2), an adhesion molecule of desmosomes and the only Dsg isoform expressed in enterocytes, is required for epithelial b...
