local activation of fluorescent molecular probes (LAMP), which uses the cell-permeable caged dye NPE-HCCC2/AM to study cell gap junction coupling 1. To extend this assay to cells in physiological ...

Cells communicate with one another during development, but what are the steps that enable them to transition from local cell-cell communication ... called "gap junctions," that connect adjacent ...

Connexin 26 (CX26), which is encoded by GJB2, helps in the formation of intercellular gap ... the physiological function of gap junction cell-cell communication was restored.
