Assembly of gap junction intercellular communication channels.
788 with a lipidlprotein molar ratio of 100:1, a value close to that found in most biological membranes [21]. The data show that the calculation of distances between sites within the monomer of a membrane protein of a cross-sectional diameter of 5 nm based only from FET efficiency measurements is largely speculative in most cases in native biological membranes. Because the contribution of FET t...
متن کاملTrahalose Activates Autophagy and Prevents Hydrogen Peroxide-Induced Apoptosis in the Bone Marrow Stromal Cells
Bone marrow stromal stem cells (BMSCs) play a significant role in cell therapy. These cells quickly die after transplantation to the affected area due to oxidative stress. The natural disaccharide, trehalose which can be known as autophagy inducer. The present study aimed to investigate the role of trehalose in preventing BMSCs from oxidative stress caused by H2O2. BMSCs were isolated from the ...

متن کاملGap junction-mediated intercellular communication in the immune system.
Immune cells are usually considered non-attached blood cells, which would exclude the formation of gap junctions. This is a misconception since many immune cells express connexin 43 (Cx43) and other connexins and are often residing in tissue. The role of gap junctions is largely ignored by immunologists as is the immune system in the field of gap junction research. Here, the current knowledge o...
متن کاملHydrogen peroxide inhibits gap junctional intercellular communication in glutathione sufficient but not glutathione deficient cells.
Cell to cell communication via gap junctions is essential in the maintenance of the homeostatic balance of multicellular organisms. Aberrant intercellular gap junctional communication (GJIC) has been implicated in tumor promotion, neuropathy and teratogenesis. Oxidative stress has also been implicated in similar pathologies such as cancer. We report a potential link between oxidative stress and...
