Effects of Cd2+ on Cx43 expression in Cx43-LLC-PK1 cells.

open access: yes, 2013
(A–C) Time- and dose-dependent effects of Cd2+ on Cx43 protein levels. Cx43-LLC-PK1 cells were treated with 35 μM CdCl2 for the indicated duration (A) or exposed to the indicated concentrations of CdCl2 for 6 h (C). The cellular protein was extracted and

Entorhinal Astrocyte Transplants Restore Spatial Exploration and Alleviate Amyloid‐Beta Pathology in Alzheimer's Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Impaired MEC astrocytic Ca2+ signaling is associated with fragmented spatial exploration in AD mice. Region‐specific glial progenitor transplantation generates engrafted astrocytes that are accompanied by improved AQP4 polarization, reduced amyloid‐β‐associated pathology, attenuated neuroinflammation, preserved synaptic integrity, and ameliorated ...

Newly Identified NO‐Sensor Guanylyl Cyclase/Connexin 43 Association Is Involved in Cardiac Electrical Function

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
BackgroundGuanylyl cyclase, a heme‐containing α1β1 heterodimer (GC1), produces cGMP in response to Nitric oxide (NO) stimulation. The NO‐GC1‐cGMP pathway negatively regulates cardiomyocyte contractility and protects against cardiac hypertrophy–related ...

Electrophysiology of single and aggregate Cx43 hemichannels. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Connexin43 (Cx43) is the most ubiquitous gap junction protein in the human body and is essential for cell-to-cell communication in a variety of organs and organ systems. As a result, Cx43 is responsible for mediating both electrical and chemical signals,

Role of soft tissue and bone interactions in the developmental integration and modularity of the skull in neural crest‐specific gap junction alpha‐1 knockout mice

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The vertebrate skull is composed of bones derived from neural crest cells and mesoderm. The evolutionary capacity of the skull has been linked, in part, to the emergence of neural crest cells; however, this increased capacity for evolutionary change requires that variation within neural crest‐ and mesoderm‐derived bones remains partly ...

Mechanosensitive piezo1 calcium channel activates connexin 43 hemichannels through PI3K signaling pathway in bone

open access: yesCell & Bioscience, 2022
Background Mechanical loading promotes bone formation and osteocytes are a major mechanosensory cell in the bone. Both Piezo1 channels and connexin 43 hemichannels (Cx43 HCs) in osteocytes are important players in mechanotransduction and anabolic ...
