TL;DR: It is the first connexin to be expressed predominantly in mammalian neurons and its identification paves the way for a molecular approach in the study of the role played by gap junctions in the physiology and the pathology of the mammalian brain.

TL;DR: It is found that mCx36 was strongly and widely expressed in the brain, including areas where the presence of gap junctions was never detected before, and is the first connexin specifically expressed in neuronal cells in the adult rodent brain.

TL;DR: It is proposed that the axis miR-671-5p /CDR1-AS / CDR1 / VSNL1 is functionally altered in GBM cells and is involved in the modification of their biopathological profile.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the scaffold per se is able to induce hADSCs differentiation, while the addition of osteo-inductive factors produces a significant acceleration of the osteogenic process.

TL;DR: It is suggested that pannexin1 and connexin36 are involved in different functional roles or that they are expressed in different cell types and that only those expressing the Cx36 are induced to apoptosis by epileptic seizures.
