Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** Claudin 7 is a transmembrane protein with four transmembrane domains and a cytoplasmic domain that interacts with other claudin family members and occludin to form tight junctions. It is highly expressed in epithelial tissues, including the colon, intestine, and kidney, where it plays a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of the epithelial barrier. Claudin 7 has been shown to be involved in various cellular processes, including cell adhesion, migration, and proliferation. **Pathways and Functions:** Claudin 7 is involved in several key pathways, including: 1. **Tight junction assembly and maintenance**: Claudin 7 interacts with occludin and other claudin family members to form tight junctions, which are essential for maintaining the integrity of the epithelial barrier. 2. **Cell adhesion**: Claudin 7 has been shown to interact with various cell adhesion molecules, including N-cadherin and E-cadherin, to regulate cell adhesion and migration. 3. **Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)**: Claudin 7 has been implicated in the regulation of EMT during gastrulation and other developmental processes. 4. **Cell motility**: Claudin 7 has been shown to regulate cell motility and migration by interacting with various signaling pathways. **Clinical Significance:** Claudin 7 has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)**: Claudin 7 has been shown to be downregulated in IBD, leading to impaired tight junction function and increased permeability. 2. **Cancer**: Claudin 7 has been implicated in the development and progression of various cancers, including colon, breast, and lung cancer. 3. **Neurological disorders**: Claudin 7 has been shown to be involved in the regulation of EMT during neurodevelopment and has been implicated in various neurological disorders, including autism and schizophrenia. 4. **Infectious diseases**: Claudin 7 has been shown to play a role in the regulation of immune responses and has been implicated in various infectious diseases, including HIV and tuberculosis. In conclusion, claudin 7 is a critical component of tight junctions and plays a key role in maintaining the integrity and function of epithelial barriers. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting the importance of claudin 7 in human health and disease. Further research is needed to fully elucidate the functions and clinical significance of claudin 7.
