Connexin Expression Is Altered in the Eye Development of Yotari Mice: A Preliminary Study

Biomolecules
This study aimed to explore how Dab1 functional silencing influences the expression patterns of different connexins in the developing yotari (yot) mice eyes as potential determinants of retinogenesis.

Cellular mechanisms of radiation‐induced myocyte dysfunction: effects on calcium handling, ion channel regulation and mitochondrial energetics

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Dose‐dependent effects of radiation on cardiac electrophysiology and arrhythmia susceptibility. At low radiation doses (left), increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) initiate an ROS–Ca2+ positive feedback loop involving calcium/calmodulin‐dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) activation, enhanced L‐type Ca2+ current (ICaL ...

Renal connexins and blood pressure

, 2012
The kidneys are centrally involved in the regulation of blood pressure. Kidney function requires the coordinated actions of a number of different vascular and tubular cell types in the renal vasculature and in the renal tubular system.

Electrodiffusion in cardiac intercalated disc nanostructures alters cell–cell action potential transmission via ephaptic coupling: A model study

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Ephaptic phenomena in a high‐resolution model of the cardiac intercalated disc. Meshed representation of a tortuous intercalated disc that was generated based on electron and super‐resolution microscopy data. Na+ channels (red) and gap junctions (green) are heterogeneously distributed, with additional regions of reduced ion ...

Heart and head defects in mice lacking pairs of connexins

, 2004
Gene ablation studies in mice have revealed roles for gap junction proteins (connexins) in heart development. Of the 20 connexins in vertebrates, four are expressed in developing heart: connexin37 (Cx37), connexin40 (Cx40), connexin43 (Cx43), and ...

Intercalated disk structure, tissue heterogeneity and ion channel distribution modulate conduction and local calcium influx

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A, three‐dimensional representation of cardiac intercalated disk, reduced to a 100‐partition, computationally efficient network representation. B, ion dynamics within intercalated disk extracellular cleft space. C, rapid pacing leads to localized conduction block in tissue with regions of perturbed intercalated disk (ID ...

Connexins as targets for cancer chemoprevention and chemotherapy

, 2005
Cells within a tissue continuously interact to coordinate normal tissue functions and maintain homeostasis. Gap junctional communication (GJC), mediated by the connexin protein family, allows this type of intercellular crosstalk resulting in synchronized
