Down-regulation of Cx43 by Retroviral Delivery of Small Interfering RNA Promotes an Aggressive Breast Cancer Cell Phenotype

TL;DR: Results suggest that Cx43 is required for maintaining cell differentiation and the regulation of molecules important in angiogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oculodentodigital dysplasia-causing connexin43 mutants are non-functional and exhibit dominant effects on wild-type connexin43.

TL;DR: These studies suggest that, although patients suffering from oculodentodigital dysplasia possess one wild-type Cx43 allele, it is likely that C x43-mediated gap junctional intercellular communication is reduced below 50% because of a dominant-negative effect of mutant Cx44 on wild- type Cx 43.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective assembly of connexin37 into heterocellular gap junctions at the oocyte/granulosa cell interface

TL;DR: Results indicate that the growing murine oocyte is functionally coupled with granulosa cells by homotypic gap junctions composed of Cx37, and that the formation and/or stabilization of CX37 junctions is selectively induced at the oocyte-granulosa interface by cell contact.
