Schematic illustration for MCs-derived miRNA destroys by inhibition of tight junction-related proteins in IECs. Enrichment of miRNA in MCs were transferred into IECs via exosomes, and internalized exosomal miRNAs suppressed tight junction-related proteins expression, including ZO-1, Occludin and Claudin, leading to increase intestinal epithelial permeability and destroy intestinal barrier function
