The Different Mechanisms of Action Potential Propagation in the Heart
It was thought previously that cardiac muscle gap junctions provide low-resistance connections between cells and permit the local-circuit current to flow. Some evidences show that myocardial cells may not require low-resistance connections for successful propagation of the action potential (AP). It seems that some other types of mechanisms must be involved in AP propagation. In this article, we...
متن کاملThe carboxy terminal domain of connexin43: from molecular regulation of the gap junction channel to supramolecular organization of the intercalated disk.
Cardiac function depends fundamentally on gap junctions, plaques of transmembrane channels constructed from connexin proteins that bridge the plasma membranes of adjacent myocytes. By electrically coupling the entire myocyte population of the heart, these junctions preside over the cell-to-cell passage of the precisely orchestrated patterns of current flow that synchronize, coordinate, and harn...

متن کاملHigh resolution map of Caenorhabditis elegans gap junction proteins.
The innexin family of gap junction proteins has 25 members in Caenorhabditis elegans. Here, we describe the first high-resolution expression map of all members through analysis of live worms transformed with green fluorescent protein under the control of entire promoter regions. Our analyses show that innexins have dynamic expression patterns throughout development and are found in virtually al...
متن کاملGap junctions of the hippocampal CA1 area are crucial for memory consolidation
Introduction: Gap junctions are specialized cell–cell contacts between eukaryotic cells through which they communicate. This type of communication has the potential to modulate memory process. We evaluated the effects of the gating of the hippocampal CA1 area gap junction channels on memory consolidation, using passive avoidance task. Materials and Methods: 72 adult male Wistar rats were distri...
