Role of carbon dioxide and ion transport in the formation of sub-embryonic fluid by the blastoderm of the Japanese quail [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
1. The explanted blastoderm of the Japanese quail was used to explore the role of ions and carbon dioxide in determining the rate of sub-embryonic fluid (SEF) production between 54 and 72 h of incubation. 2.

Adherens, tight, and gap junctions in ependymal cells: A systematic review of their contribution to CSF-brain barrier

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2023
IntroductionThe movement of fluids and solutes across the ependymal barrier, and their changes in physiologic and disease states are poorly understood.

Regulation of gap junctions by protein phosphorylation

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1998
Gap junctions are constituted by intercellular channels and provide a pathway for transfer of ions and small molecules between adjacent cells of most tissues.

PSD-95 Is Associated with the Postsynaptic Density and Not with the Presynaptic Membrane at Forebrain Synapses [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
PSD-95, a prominent protein component of the postsynaptic density (PSD) fraction from rat forebrain, has been localized by light microscopy to dendrites of hippocampal neurons (Cho et al., 1992) and to the presynaptic plexus of cerebellar basket cells ...

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

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 ...

Mouse middle ear ion homeostasis channels and intercellular junctions. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The middle ear contains homeostatic mechanisms that control the movement of ions and fluids similar to those present in the inner ear, and are altered during inflammation.The normal middle ear cavity is fluid-free and air-filled to allow for effective ...

Mechanisms of endothelial cell dysfunction in cystic fibrosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Although cystic fibrosis (CF) patients exhibit signs of endothelial perturbation, the functions of the cystic fibrosis conductance regulator (CFTR) in vascular endothelial cells (EC) are poorly defined.

Tunneling Nanotubes and Gap Junctions–Their Role in Long-Range Intercellular Communication during Development, Health, and Disease Conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2017
Cell-to-cell communication is essential for the organization, coordination, and development of cellular networks and multi-cellular systems. Intercellular communication is mediated by soluble factors (including growth factors, neurotransmitters, and ...

The structural organization and protein composition of lens fiber junctions. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
The structural organization and protein composition of lens fiber junctions isolated from adult bovine and calf lenses were studied using combined electron microscopy, immunolocalization with monoclonal and polyclonal anti-MIP and anti-MP70 (two putative

Connexin communication compartments and wound repair in epithelial tissue [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Epithelial tissues line the lumen of tracts and ducts connecting to the external environment. They are critical in forming an interface between the internal and external environment and, following assault from environmental factors and pathogens, they ...
