Transepithelial potential as a novel biomarker and therapeutic target for epithelial disease and regeneration

The transepithelial potential (TEP) is a stable, long-range bioelectrical gradient maintained across epithelial barriers, generated primarily by polarized ion transport mechanisms such as the Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase and epithelial sodium channels (ENaC). Ranging from a few millivolts to ov...
