Mutations of lens connexins are linked to congenital cataracts. However, the role of connexin mutations in the development of age-related lens opacification remains largely unknown. Here, we present a focused review of the literature on len...
Retinoic Acid Influences connexin43 Expression During Joint Formation in the Regenerating Zebrafish Fin [0.03%]
视黄酸影响再生斑马鱼鳍关节形成过程中连接蛋白43的表达

Background: The regenerating zebrafish fin skeleton is comprised of multiple bony fin rays, each made of alternating bony segments and fin ray joints. This pattern is regulated by the gap junction protein Connexin43 (Cx43...
Channel Behavior and Voltage Gating of a Cx43 Mutant Simulating Preconditioning [0.03%]
模仿预处理的Cx43突变体通道的行为及其电压门控功能

Jose F Ek-Vitorin et al.
Background: Ischemic preconditioning induces lateralization and dephosphorylation of Connexin 43 (Cx43). However, the Cx43 protein that remains at intercalated disks may be phosphorylated by casein kinase 1 (CK1) and prot...
