Knockout of Pannexin-1 Induces Hearing Loss [PDF]
Mutations of gap junction connexin genes induce a high incidence of nonsyndromic hearing loss. Pannexin genes also encode gap junctional proteins in vertebrates. Recent studies demonstrated that Pannexin-1 (Panx1) deficiency in mice and mutation in humans are also associated with hearing loss.

Powerful partnership: crosstalk between pannexin 1 and the cytoskeleton [PDF]
Pannexin 1 (Panx1) large-pore ion and metabolite channels are emerging as key proteins in many physiological and pathophysiological scenarios. Recent evidence has tightly linked Panx1 trafficking and function to the cytoskeleton, a multi-component ...

Role of Pannexin 1, P2X7, and CFTR in ATP Release and Autocrine Signaling by Principal Cells of the Epididymis [PDF]
Extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a signaling molecule that acts as a paracrine and autocrine modulator of cell function. Here, we characterized the role of luminal ATP in the regulation of epithelial principal cells (PCs) in the epididymis ...

Inhibition of pannexin‐1 does not restore electrolyte balance in precystic Pkd1 knockout mice [PDF]
Mutations in PKD1 and PKD2 cause autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), which is characterized by the formation of fluid‐filled cysts in the kidney.

Probenecid, a gout remedy, inhibits pannexin 1 channels [PDF]
Probenecid is a well-established drug for the treatment of gout and is thought to act on an organic anion transporter, thereby affecting uric acid excretion in the kidney by blocking urate reuptake. Probenecid also has been shown to affect ATP release, leading to the suggestion that ATP release involves an organic anion transporter.

Pannexin-1 Channels as Mediators of Neuroinflammation [PDF]
Neuroinflammation is a major component of central nervous system (CNS) injuries and neurological diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease, multiple sclerosis, neuropathic pain, and brain trauma. The activation of innate immune cells at the damage site causes the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines, which alter the functionality of ...
