We quantified actin glutathionylation, F-actin abundance, TJ expression and organization, and barrier integrity. In the absence of dysregulated F-actin organization, FA iBMVEC exhibited a loss of 50% ZO-1, 63% Occludin, and 19% Claudin-5 protein expression, along with a disruption in the bi-cellular organization of the latter two proteins. Functionally, this correlated with barrier hyperpermeability, delayed barrier maturation, and increased flux of the fluorescent tracer Lucifer Yellow.

Clinically, this may represent a targetable pathway to reduce brain iron accumulation, neuroinflammation, and neurodegeneration profiles in FA.
