Acidosis potentiates endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation and gap junction communication in the superior mesenteric artery. [PDF]
Extracellular pH is an important physiological determinant of vascular tone that is normally maintained within 7.35-7.45. Any change outside this range leads to severe pathological repercussions.

Mutations in GJA5 encoding the gap junction protein connexin40 (Cx40) have been linked to lone atrial fibrillation. Some of these mutants result in impaired gap junction function due to either abnormal connexin localization or impaired gap junction ...

Regulation of Cx45 hemichannels mediated by extracellular and intracellular calcium [PDF]
Connexin45 (Cx45) hemichannels (HCs) open in the absence of Ca2+ and close in its presence. To elucidate the underlying mechanisms, we examined the role of extra- and intracellular Ca2+ on the electrical properties of HCs.

Posttranslational Modifications in Connexins and Pannexins [PDF]
Posttranslational modification is a common cellular process that is used by cells to ensure a particular protein function. This can happen in a variety of ways, e.g., from the addition of phosphates or sugar residues to a particular amino acid, ensuring ...

Mechanisms of ATP release and signalling in the blood vessel wall [PDF]
The nucleotide adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) has classically been considered the cell's primary energy currency. Importantly, a novel role for ATP as an extracellular autocrine and/or paracrine signalling molecule has evolved over the past century and ...
