Neomycin and bacitracin reduce the intestinal permeability in mice and increase the expression of some tight-junction proteins

Abstract

The combination of neomycin and bacitracin reduce intestinal permeability and increase the gene expression of ZO-1, junctional adhesion molecule A (JAM-A), and occludin in the ileum and ZO-1, claudin-3, and claudin-4 in the colon.
