Quercetin increases claudin-4 expression through multiple transcription factors in intestinal Caco-2 cells
We previously reported that quercetin increases tight junction (TJ) barrier integrity in intestinal Caco-2 cells. This study was aimed at determining the molecular mechanism underlying the quercetin-mediated effect with a particular focus on the transcriptional regulation of claudin-4. Quercetin agl...
