The role of connexin 43 in mediating odor response
European Journal of Cell Biology, 2015 Connexin proteins are the hemichannels that form gap junctions to regulate the intercellular communication. Connexin 43 (Cx43) is the most common gap junction protein that expresses in many cell types, including the olfactory sensory neurons. Phosphorylation is a crucial step to regulate the function of Cx43. Gap junction was found to modulate the odor

Low dose ionizing radiation-induced activation of connexin 43 expression
, 2003 Purpose: Connexin 43 has been implicated in the cellular response to ionizing radiation by enabling cell-to-cell communication. It is established here that the expression of connexin 43 is affected by ionizing radiation and the mechanism involved is ...

Role of astroglial hemichannels and pannexons in Memory and Neurodegenerative diseases
Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2016 Under physiological conditions, astroglial hemichannels and pannexin channels allow the release of gliotransmitters from astrocytes. These gliotransmitters are critical in modulating synaptic transmission, plasticity and memory.

Nonlinear behaviour of conduction and block in cardiac tissue with heterogeneous expression of connexin 43 [PDF]
, 2014 Altered gap junctional coupling potentiates slow conduction and arrhythmias. To better understand how heterogeneous connexin expression affects conduction at the cellular scale, we investigated conduction in tissue consisting of two cardiomyocyte ...

Connexin 43 phosphorylation and degradation are required for adipogenesis
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2012 Connexin-43 (Cx43) is a membrane phosphoprotein that mediates direct inter-cellular communication by forming gap junctions. In this way Cx43 can influence gene expression, differentiation and growth. Its role in adipogenesis, however, is poorly understood.

Effects of Connexin 43 Inhibition in an Ovalbumin-induced Mouse Model of Asthma
Iranian Journal of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, 2018 Connexion 43 (Cx43), a gap junction protein, is expressed abundantly in the airway and has been implicated in the pathogenesis of asthma. However, the effects of blocking Cx43 in asthma remain unclear.
