Loss of Panx1 Impairs Mammary Gland Development at Lactation: Implications for Breast Tumorigenesis. [PDF]
Pannexin1 (Panx1) subunits oligomerize to form large-pore channels between the intracellular and extracellular milieu that have been shown to regulate proliferation, differentiation and cell death mechanisms.

A metastasis-associated pannexin-1 mutant (Panx1<sup>1-89</sup>) forms a minimalist ATP release channel. [PDF]
A truncation mutant of Panx1 (Panx11‐89), enriched in metastatic breast cancer cells, is capable of forming a large ATP‐permeable membrane channel despite containing only 20% of the amino‐terminal amino acids of the wild‐type channel protein (wtPanx1). However, cells expressing Panx11‐89 alone die, whereas co‐expression of wtPanx1 is protective.

The Contribution of Astrocyte and Neuronal Panx1 to Seizures Is Model and Brain Region Dependent
Pannexin1 (Panx1) is an ATP release channel expressed in neurons and astrocytes that plays important roles in CNS physiology and pathology. Evidence for the involvement of Panx1 in seizures includes the reduction of epileptiform activity and ictal ...

Genetic ablation of Pannexin1 protects retinal neurons from ischemic injury. [PDF]
Pannexin1 (Panx1) forms large nonselective membrane channel that is implicated in paracrine and inflammatory signaling. In vitro experiments suggested that Panx1 could play a key role in ischemic death of hippocampal neurons. Since retinal ganglion cells

Endothelial pannexin 1–TRPV4 channel signaling lowers pulmonary arterial pressure in mice
Pannexin 1 (Panx1), an ATP-efflux pathway, has been linked with inflammation in pulmonary capillaries. However, the physiological roles of endothelial Panx1 in the pulmonary vasculature are unknown.

Background Neuroinflammation is a major component of secondary damage after traumatic brain injury (TBI). We recently reported that pharmacological inhibition of Pannexin-1 (Panx1) channels markedly reduced the inflammatory response after TBI.

Stomatin inhibits pannexin-1-mediated whole-cell currents by interacting with its carboxyl terminal. [PDF]
The pannexin-1 (Panx1) channel (often referred to as the Panx1 hemichannel) is a large-conductance channel in the plasma membrane of many mammalian cells.

Pannexin-1 Contributes to the Apoptosis of Spinal Neurocytes in Spinal Cord Injury
Currently, the role of Pannexin-1, a homomeric membrane hemichannel on the neuron cell membrane, in the development of spinal cord injury (SCI) is largely unknown. Herein, we assessed the contribution of Panx1 in the development of SCI.

Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a deadly cancer of skeletal muscle origin. Pannexin 1 (PANX1) is down-regulated in RMS and increasing its levels drastically inhibits RMS progression.

Pannexin 1 Influences Lineage Specification of Human iPSCs
Every single cell in the body communicates with nearby cells to locally organize activities with their neighbors and dysfunctional cell-cell communication can be detrimental during cell lineage commitment, tissue patterning and organ development ...
