The role of cellular adhesion molecules in virus attachment and entry [PDF]
, 2015 As obligate intracellular parasites, viruses must traverse the host-cell plasma membrane to initiate infection. This presents a formidable barrier, which they have evolved diverse strategies to overcome.

Phosphatase regulation of intercellular junctions [PDF]
Tissue Barriers, 2013 Intercellular junctions represent the key contact points and sites of communication between neighboring cells. Assembly of these junctions is absolutely essential for the structural integrity of cell monolayers, tissues and organs. Disruption of junctions can have severe consequences such as diarrhea, edema and sepsis, and contribute to the development

Connexins in neurons and glia: targets for intervention in disease and injury
Neural Regeneration Research, 2015 Both neurons and glia throughout the central nervous system are organized into networks by gap junctions. Among glia, gap junctions facilitate metabolic homeostasis and intercellular communication.

RhoA GTPase switch controls Cx43-hemichannel activity through the contractile system [PDF]
, 2012 ATP-dependent paracrine signaling, mediated via the release of ATP through plasma membrane-embedded hemichannels of the connexin family, coordinates a synchronized response between neighboring cells.

Porcine rotavirus mainly infects primary porcine enterocytes at the basolateral surface
Veterinary Research, 2019 Intestinal epithelium functions as a barrier to protect multicellular organisms from the outside world. It consists of epithelial cells closely connected by intercellular junctions, selective gates which control paracellular diffusion of solutes, ions ...

Increased Expression of Adherens Junction Components in Mouse Liver following Bile Duct Ligation
Biomolecules, 2019 Adherens junctions, consisting of cadherins and catenins, are a group of cell-to-cell junctions that mediate mechanistic linkage between neighboring cells. By doing so, adherens junctions ensure direct intercellular contact and play an indispensable role

Mechanisms of endothelial cell dysfunction in cystic fibrosis [PDF]
, 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.
