Callose homeostasis at plasmodesmata: molecular regulators and developmental relevance [PDF]
, 2014 Plasmodesmata are membrane-lined channels that are located in the plant cell wall and that physically interconnect the cytoplasm and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of adjacent cells.

Loss and reappearance of gap junctions in regenerating liver [PDF]
, 1978 Changes in intercellular junctional morphology associated with rat liver regeneration were examined in a freeze-fracture study. After a two-thirds partial hepatectomy, both gap junctions and zonulae occludentes were drastically altered.

Intercellular Communication in the Anterior Pituitary* [PDF]
Endocrine Reviews, 2000 In addition to hypothalamic and feedback inputs, the secretory cells of the anterior pituitary are influenced by the activity of factors secreted within the gland. The list of putative intrapituitary factors has been expanding steadily over the past decade, although until recently much of the work was limited to descriptions of potential interactions ...

Antitumor Immunity: Role of NK Cells and Extracellular Vesicles in Cancer Immunotherapy
Current Issues in Molecular Biology, 2023 The immune system plays a crucial role in recognizing and eliminating altered tumor cells. However, tumors develop mechanisms to evade the body’s natural immune defenses. Therefore, methods for specifically recognizing/targeting tumor cells, for instance,

Immunocytochemical localization of the main intrinsic polypeptide (MIP) in ultrathin frozen sections of rat lens. [PDF]
, 1983 The in situ distribution of the 26-kdalton Main Intrinsic Polypeptide (MIP or MP 26), a putative gap junction protein in ocular lens fibers, was defined at the electron microscope level using indirect immunoferritin labeling of ultrathin frozen sections ...

Inferring spatial and signaling relationships between cells from single cell transcriptomic data. [PDF]
, 2020 Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) provides details for individual cells; however, crucial spatial information is often lost. We present SpaOTsc, a method relying on structured optimal transport to recover spatial properties of scRNA-seq data by ...

Diet-dependent immunohistochemical evaluation of connexin 43 in the sheep rumen [PDF]
, 2016 The objective of this study was to characterize the immunohistochemical localization of plasma membrane connexin 43 in the rumen of sheep after changing the diet from hay (ad libitum) to a mixed hay/concentrate diet.

Exosomes and Ectosomes in Intercellular Communication [PDF]
Current Biology, 2018 Exosomes and ectosomes, two distinct types of extracellular vesicles generated by all types of cell, play key roles in intercellular communication. The formation of these vesicles depends on local microdomains assembled in endocytic membranes for exosomes and in the plasma membrane for ectosomes.
