Influenza H7N9 virus infection decreased the expression of junctional proteins VE-cadherin, Occludin and Claudin-5 in hCMEC/D3 cells. A WB depicted that the amount of VE-cadherin, Occludin and Claudin-5 decreased in hCMEC/D3 cells post-infection. The amount of junctional proteins expression was normalized by β-actin. B The expression level of VE-cadherin, Occludin, Claudin-5 and ZO-1 compared to the mock group was quantified by ImageJ. Statistical differences were obtained through One-way ANOVA. **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001
