Visfatin reduces gap junction mediated cell-to-cell communication in proximal tubule-derived epithelial cells [PDF]
, 2013 Background/Aims: In the current study we examined if the adipocytokine, visfatin, alters connexin-mediated intercellular communication in proximal tubule-derived epithelial cells.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Deinococcus radiodurans‐derived extracellular vesicles (R1‐EVs) provide radioprotection against total‐body irradiation‐induced acute radiation syndrome in mice. R1‐EVs mitigate oxidative damage by scavenging free radicals, promoting intestinal repair, enhancing hematopoietic function, and modulating immune responses. This study highlights the potential

The Multi-Scale Impact of the Alzheimer's Disease in the Topology Diversity of Astrocytes Molecular Communications Nanonetworks [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 The Internet of Bio-Nano-Things is a new paradigm that can bring novel remotely controlled actuation and sensing techniques inside the human body. Towards precise bionano sensing techniques in the brain, we investigate the challenges of modelling spatial distribution of astrocyte networks in developing a mathematical framework that lay the groundwork ...

Compartmentalized and signal-selective gap junctional coupling in the hearing cochlea [PDF]
, 2006 Gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) plays a major role in cochlear function. Recent evidence suggests that connexin 26 (Cx26) and Cx30 are the major constituent proteins of cochlear gap junction channels, possibly in a unique heteromeric ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Synthetic matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)‐degradable polyethylene glycol (PEG)‐based hydrogels are developed to investigate the influence of mechanical and biochemical cues on cardioid development. Matrix stiffness and cell adhesion motifs significantly regulate cardioid formation, chamber morphogenesis, contractile function, and cardioid transcriptome.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.The study introduces innovative 3D microtissues that replicate the glomerular filtration barrier of the kidney, offering a novel platform for understanding podocytopathies. These microtissues simulate the glomerulus's structure and dynamics, allowing for the modeling of podocyte injuries and drug testing.

Gap Junctional Intercellular Communication and Carcinogenesis [PDF]
Carcinogenesis, 1990 It is widely accepted that the process by which a normal cell becomes a malignant tumour is multistage (Doll, 1978; Yamasaki and Weinstein, 1985). It is possible that cell growth is such a tightly controlled process that multiple events are needed in order for a normal cell to deviate so markedly as to be potentially cancerous.

Characterisation of Anti-Arrhythmic Drug Effects on Cardiac Electrophysiology using Physics-Informed Neural Networks [PDF]
The ability to accurately infer cardiac electrophysiological (EP) properties is key to improving arrhythmia diagnosis and treatment. In this work, we developed a physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) framework to predict how different myocardial EP parameters are modulated by anti-arrhythmic drugs.

Studies of intercellular Ca2+ signaling and gap-junction coupling in the developing cochlea of mouse models affected by congenital hearing loss [PDF]
, 2013 Connexin 26 (Cx26) and connexin 30 (Cx30) form gap junction channels that allow the intercellular diffusion of the Ca2+ mobilizing second messenger IP3.
