| Research Abstract |
In this study, we analyzed the mechanism of disruption of epithelial paracellular barrier function caused by botulinum HA. Using recombinant HA, we purified HA-binding proteins from human intestinal epithelial cell lines. Next, we analyzed the localization of botulinum toxins in vivo . The HA bound and transcytosed to the basolateral side and disrupted the epithelial barrier at the specific cells.
