Tight Junction Integrity

TEER is quantified by measuring the resistance across a confluent tissue layer.

Summary

Tight junctions help to preserve specialized cell functions and transcellular transport, and prevent the passage of molecules through the space between cell membranes of adjacent cells. TEER measurements on RHuA tissues are used to assess tight junction integrity.
