Pannexins are new molecular candidates for assembling gap junctions in the cochlea
, 2008 Genetic studies have linked many nonsyndromic deafness patients to mutations in genes coding for gap junction proteins. To better understand molecular identities of gap junctions in the cochlea, we investigated the expression of pannexins (Panxs ...

Connexins and pannexins in the integumentary system: the skin and appendages:The skin and appendages
, 2015 The integumentary system comprises the skin and its appendages, which includes hair, nails, feathers, sebaceous and eccrine glands. In this review, we focus on the expression profile of connexins and pannexins throughout the integumentary system in ...

IMPLICATIONS OF PANNEXIN 1 AND PANNEXIN 3 IN KERATINOCYTE DIFFERENTIATION [PDF]
, 2009 Pannexin (Panx) 1 and Panx3 are integral membrane proteins with sequence homology to the invertebrate gap junctions, innexins, and are expressed in mammalian skin. Panxs form functional single-membrane channels but their importance in regulating cellular function is poorly understood.

Exciting and Not So Exciting Roles of Pannexins
, 2019 It is the current view that purinergic signaling regulates many physiological functions. Pannexin1 (Panx1), a member of the gap junction family of proteins is an ATP releasing channel that plays important physio-pathological roles in various tissues ...

Molecular characterization of pannexins in the lens
, 2006 Cell communication in the lens is critical for the life-long homeostasis of this tissue. Abundant gap junctions and cell-cell fusions are reported to be indispensable to the metabolic requirements and optical properties of the highly interconnected ...

, 2017 ATP release has vital importance as an intracellular energy molecule and upon release from cells, as a purinergic signaling molecule. Working skeletal muscle releases ATP which is subsequently converted extracellularly to adenosine by ectoenzymes ...

The mammalian pannexin family is homologous to the invertebrate innexin gap junction proteins
, 2004 We have cloned the genes PANX1, PANX2 and PANX3, encoding putative gap junction proteins homologous to invertebrate innexins, which constitute a new family of mammalian proteins called pannexins.
