Gap junctions comprise arrays of intercellular channels formed by connexin proteins and
provide for the direct communication between adjacent cells. This type of intercellular …

Connexin, a four-pass transmembrane protein, contributes to assembly of gap junctions
among neighboring cells and thus facilitates gap junctional intercellular communication …

Background The effects of diet in cancer, in general, and breast cancer in particular, are not
well understood. Insulin inhibition in ketogenic, high fat diets, modulate downstream …

Breast cancer is a highly complicated disease. Advancement in the treatment and
prevention of breast cancer lies in elucidation of the mechanism of carcinogenesis and …

Gap junctions are cell‐to‐cell junctions that are located in the basolateral surface of two
adjoining cells. A gap junction channel is composed of a family of proteins called connexins …

Connexins are a family of transmembrane proteins that are characterized by their capacity to
form intercellular channels called gap junctions that directly link the cytoplasm of adjacent …

Connexin 43 is a prominent gap junction protein within normal human breast tissue. Thus
far, there have been a number of research studies performed to determine the function of …

Purpose Obtaining tumour-free margins is critical for avoiding re-excision and reducing local
recurrence following breast-conserving surgery; however, it remains challenging. Imaging …

Simple Summary Breast cancer is a leading cause of death for women worldwide. This study
aims to examine the mechanisms for the anti-cancer effects of a therapeutic peptide agent …

Gap junctions and their connexin components are indispensable in mediating the cellular
coordination required for tissue and organ homeostasis. The critical nature of their existence …
