Epithelial BiologyExpression of a zinc transporter in the human intestinal cell line Caco-2

ICaMB’s Epithelial Biology Group focuses on universal organizing principles that include the processes governing the specialised roles of epithelial cells in:

  • Epithelial transport,
  • Nutrition,
  • Microbial-interactions,
  • Health and disease.

Insights into abnormalities in physiological processes are of potential value in the understanding and the molecular correction of a large number of human diseases that affect epithelial tissues.
