ABSTRACT Background Challenges in establishing clinical conventional in vitro fertilization (IVF) in horses include variation in sperm and oocyte quality, which can be affected by mare age. Extended preincubation of stallion spermatozoa has resulted in successful IVF.

Studies of intercellular Ca2+ signaling and gap-junction coupling in the developing cochlea of mouse models affected by congenital hearing loss [PDF]
Connexin 26 (Cx26) and connexin 30 (Cx30) form gap junction channels that allow the intercellular diffusion of the Ca2+ mobilizing second messenger IP3.

Background and Purpose Notoginsenoside‐Fa (Noto‐Fa) is an emerging active compound derived from notoginseng with promise in treating cardiovascular diseases. The development of cardiovascular diseases is intricately linked to the damage of vascular endothelium and it is widely acknowledged that numerous chronic inflammation pathways, especially the ...

Two different types of gap junction proteins, beta 1- and beta 2-connexin, were expressed in insect cells, either singly or together, using infection with recombinant baculovirus. Membrane fractions enriched in gap junction proteins were isolated, and connexons (hemichannels) were solubilized with detergent.

Introduction: Gap junctions are intercellular membrane channels that provide direct cytoplasmic continuity between adjacent cells. This communication can be affected by changes in expression of gap junctional subunits called Connexins (Cx).

Spatial and temporal patterns of distribution of the gap junction protein connexin43 during mouse gastrulation and organogenesis [PDF]
Connexin43 (Cx43) is a member of the family of channel-forming proteins that make up the gap junction and are believed to provide pathways for cell-cell exchange of developmental signals.

Mitochondria can be transferred from bone marrow cells to cancer cells in acute myeloid leukaemia and multiple myeloma, boosting tumour energy production, growth, and drug resistance. This review highlights key transfer mechanisms and shows how targeting mitochondrial movement and dynamics may offer new therapeutic strategies to limit cancer ...

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...
