Inhibition of gap junction and adherens junction assembly by connexin and A-CAM antibodies [PDF]
We examined the roles of the extracellular domains of a gap junction protein and a cell adhesion molecule in gap junction and adherens junction formation by altering cell interactions with antibody Fab fragments.

Sacubitril/Valsartan (Sac/Val) alleviates fibrosis and inflammation in metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatohepatitis (MASH). Its anti‐fibrotic effect is linked to the suppression of Integrin alpha 8 (Itga8), a protein crucial for hepatic stellate cell (HSC) activation and collagen production.

What's the Function of Connexin 32 in the Peripheral Nervous System? [PDF]
Connexin 32 (Cx32) is a fundamental protein in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) as its mutations cause the X-linked form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT1X), the second most common form of hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy and a demyelinating

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.

ABSTRACT Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice. Its incidence increases significantly with age and has become a major global public health issue. Although research into the mechanisms of AF has spanned over a century‐ranging from the reentry theory to the rotor hypothesis‐none of these

Trafficking pathways of Cx49-GFP in living mammalian cells [PDF]
In the present study we examined the trafficking pathways of connexin49 (Cx49) fused to green fluorescent protein (GFP) in polar and non-polar cell lines. The Cx49 gene was isolated from ovine lens by RT-PCR.

Myocardial sleeves of the pulmonary veins in racehorses with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation exhibit upregulated pathways associated with tissue structure remodeling. Pathways related to the extracellular matrix and cellular components differ significantly from those in healthy horses.

Connexin36 knockout mice display increased sensitivity to pentylenetetrazol-induced seizure-like behaviors [PDF]
Large-scale synchronous firing of neurons during seizures is modulated by electrotonic coupling between neurons via gap junctions. To explore roles for connexin36 (Cx36) gap junctions in seizures, we examined the seizure threshold of connexin36 knockout (
