Potential Regulatory Effects of Corticotropin-Releasing Factor on Tight Junction-Related Intestinal Epithelial Permeability are Partially Mediated by CK8 Upregulation

Background/Aims: Intestinal permeability and stress have been implicated in the pathophysiology of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Cytokeratin 8 (CK8), for the first time, has been shown to mediate corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF)-induced changes in intestinal permeability in animal models of IB...
