Although these methods measure changes in global barrier function, they lack the sensitivity needed to detect local or transient barrier breaches, and they do not reveal the location of barrier leaks. Therefore, we previously developed a method that we named the zinc-based ultrasensitive microscopic barrier assay (ZnUMBA), which overcomes these limitations, allowing for detection of local tight junction leaks with high spatiotemporal resolution. Here, we present expanded applications for ZnUMBA. ZnUMBA can be used in Xenopus embryos to measure the dynamics of barrier restoration and actin accumulation following laser injury. ZnUMBA can also be effectively utilized in developing zebrafish embryos as well as cultured monolayers of Madin–Darby canine kidney (MDCK) II epithelial cells. ZnUMBA is a powerful and flexible method that, with minimal optimization, can be applied to multiple systems to measure dynamic changes in barrier function with spatiotemporal precision."}],"department":[{"_id":"CaHe"},{"_id":"EvBe"}],"issue":"15","date_published":"2023-08-01T00:00:00Z","publication_status":"published","scopus_import":"1","publisher":"The Company of Biologists","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","date_created":"2023-08-20T22:01:13Z","oa_version":"None","status":"public","title":"ZnUMBA - a live imaging method to detect local barrier breaches","quality_controlled":"1"}
