Tight junctions (TJ) and adherens junctions (AJ) regulate cell-cell adhesion and barrier function of simple polarized epithelia. These junctions are positioned in the apical end of the lateral plasma membrane and form the socalled apical junctional complex (AJC). Although initially seen as purely st
## Abstract The median eminence is one of the seven soβcalled circumventricular organs. It is located in the basal hypothalamus, ventral to the third ventricle and adjacent to the arcuate nucleus. This structure characteristically contains a rich capillary plexus and features a fenestrated endothel
