Reduced surface expression of epithelial E-cadherin evoked by interferon-gamma is Fyn kinase-dependent.
Interferon gamma (IFNγ) is an important regulatory cytokine that can exert a pro-inflammatory effect in the gut, where it has been shown to increase epithelial permeability via disruption of the tight junctions. Here we investigated the potential for IFNγ to regulate the adherens junction protein E-...
