Intercellular Communication in Atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesPhysiology, 2009
Cell-to-cell communication is a process necessary for physiological tissue homeostasis and appears often altered during disease. Gap junction channels, formed by connexins, allow the direct intercellular communication between adjacent cells. After a brief review of the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis, we will discuss the role of connexins throughout

Intercellular Communication in Spheroids [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
This chapter has shown that the response of spheroid cells to gap junctional communication may lead to certain metabolic and cell physiological changes. It has also become apparent that the functions of the gap junctions are very complex. They may, for example, be related to the fundamental effects of cAMP and/or Ca 2+.

Exosomes for Intramyocardial Intercellular Communication [PDF]

open access: yesStem Cells International, 2015
Cross-talk between different cell types plays central roles both in cardiac homeostasis and in adaptive responses of the heart to stress. Cardiomyocytes (CMs) send biological messages to the other cell types present in the heart including endothelial ...

Connecting different heart diseases through intercellular communication

open access: yesBiology Open, 2021
Well-orchestrated intercellular communication networks are pivotal to maintaining cardiac homeostasis and to ensuring adaptative responses and repair after injury. Intracardiac communication is sustained by cell–cell crosstalk, directly via gap junctions

Non-coding RNAs in Cardiac Intercellular Communication

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Intercellular communication allows for molecular information to be transferred from cell to cell, in order to maintain tissue or organ homeostasis. Alteration in the process due to changes, either on the vehicle or the cargo information, may contribute ...

Airineme-Mediated Intercellular Communication [PDF]

open access: yes
Intercellular communication is indispensable across multicellular organisms, and any aberration in this process can give rise to significant anomalies in developmental and homeostatic processes. Thus, a comprehensive understanding of its mechanisms is imperative for addressing human health-related concerns.

Intercellular communication in peritoneal dialysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology
Long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD) causes structural and functional alterations of the peritoneal membrane. Peritoneal deterioration and fibrosis are multicellular and multimolecular processes.

7-Ketocholesterol modulates intercellular communication through gap-junction in bovine lens epithelial cells [PDF]

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2004
Background Connexin43 (Cx43) is an integral membrane protein that forms intercellular channels called gap junctions. Intercellular communication in the eye lens relies on an extensive network of gap junctions essential for the maintenance of lens ...

ICAMs in Immunity, Intercellular Adhesion and Communication

open access: yesCells
Interactions among leukocytes and leukocytes with immune-associated auxiliary cells represent an essential feature of the immune response that requires the involvement of cell adhesion molecules (CAMs).
