Decreased Expression of Connexin 43 Blunts the Progression of Experimental GN.
GN refers to a variety of renal pathologies that often progress to ESRD, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this progression remain incompletely characterized.

Cerebral ischemia is a serious neurological disease that mainly leads to pathological changes such as mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress and iron death. Mitochondria play a key role in the regulation of cellular energy metabolism and oxidative stress, and their damage can lead to mitochondrial damage, reduced adenosine triphosphate production,

Connexin 46 and Connexin 50 in Selenite Cataract
The purpose of this work was to determine if the lens gap junction proteins connexin 46 (Cx46) and connexin 50 (Cx50) were altered with the development of selenite-induced cataract. Cataracts were induced in young Sprague-Dawley rats with a single subcutaneous injection of sodium selenite; age-matched uninjected rats served as controls.

Premature MicroRNA-1 Expression Causes Hypoplasia of the Cardiac Ventricular Conduction System. [PDF]
Mammalian cardiac Purkinje fibers (PFs) are specified from ventricular trabecular myocardium during mid-gestation and undergo limited proliferation before assuming their final form.

HepaCAM associates with connexin 43 and enhances its localization in cellular junctions
HepaCAM (GlialCAM) is frequently deleted in carcinomas, and reintroduction of hepaCAM into transformed cell lines reduces cellular growth and induces senescence.

Involvement of gap junction channels in the pathophysiology of migraine with aura
Migraine is a common, recurrent and disabling primary headache disorder with a genetic component which affects up to 20 % of the population. One third of all patients with migraine experiences aura, a focal neurological disturbance that manifests itself ...

Connexin 43 plays a role in pulmonary vascular reactivity in mice [PDF]
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a chronic condition characterized by vascular remodeling and increased vaso-reactivity. PAH is more common in females than in males (~3:1).

Pannexin2 (Panx2) is the largest of three members of the pannexin proteins. Pannexins are topologically related to connexins and innexins, but serve different functional roles than forming gap junctions.

MiR‐1 Is Regulated by Hydrogen Peroxide via MAPK and Limits Cell Migration and Invasion
ABSTRACT MicroRNA‐1 (miR‐1) is a conserved microRNA that is highly expressed in skeletal and cardiac muscle tissues. Moreover, miR‐1 regulates genes and has critical roles in cell migration and invasion. Downregulation of miR‐1 has been found in many pathologies of numerous organs, including the lungs.
