Abstract Jet lag syndrome appears after multiple time zone transitions as bodily rhythms shift out of phase with the local environment. The possible psychiatric complications of jet lag have been underinvestigated. In the present review, the symptoms of jet lag in the general population, the chronobiological aspects of psychosis, as...

Claudins in renal physiology and disease
|
|
Abstract The tight junction forms the paracellular permeability barrier in all epithelia, including the renal tubule. Claudins are a family of tight junction membrane proteins with four transmembrane domains that form the paracellular pore and barrier. Their first extracellular domain appears to be important for determining selectivity. A number of...
