Target Background

Function(From Uniprot)
Gap junction protein that acts as a regulator of bladder capacity. A gap junction consists of a cluster of closely packed pairs of transmembrane channels, the connexons, through which materials of low MW diffuse from one cell to a neighboring cell. May play a critical role in the physiology of hearing by participating in the recycling of potassium to the cochlear endolymph. Negative regulator of bladder functional capacity: acts by enhancing intercellular electrical and chemical transmission, thus sensitizing bladder muscles to cholinergic neural stimuli and causing them to contract. May play a role in cell growth inhibition through the regulation of NOV expression and localization. Plays an essential role in gap junction communication in the ventricles.
Gene References into Functions
  1. This study found that down-regulation of Cx43 expression in the junction zone might play an important role in pathogenesis of adenomyosis, and that estradiol modulates gap junctions during adenomyosis. PMID:27760016
  2. Cx43 mRNA and protein expression increased after endothelial cell exposure to ketone bodies; this was accompanied by upregulation of gap junctional intercellular coupling and cell migration. PMID:24210276
  3. RhoA appears to be an important molecular switch that controls Cx43 hemichannel openings and hemichannel-mediated ATP-dependent paracrine intercellular communication under (patho)physiological conditions of stress PMID:22860057
  4. Papillary urothelial carcinomas showed moderate cytoplasmic and membrane labelling, while invasive carcinoma showed loss of connexin 43 expression. PMID:20643416
  5. Human TGF-beta1 induces an accumulation of connexin43 in a lysosomal compartment in bovine endothelial cells PMID:11824477
  6. Increased degradation of Cx43 and reduction of intracellular communication through gap junctions in high glucose may be of physiological importance by contributing to endothelial cell dysfunction. PMID:15123628
  7. Expression in the rumen epithelium. PMID:15319221
  8. intermediate invasive status of bovine trophoblast is supported by the fact that trophoblast giant cells coexpress connexins (Cx)26, Cx32, and Cx43 PMID:16310041
  9. CBN blocks junctional communication and modulates Cx43 expression in BAEC. These results suggest a feedback mechanism for control of connexin expression based on junctional patency. PMID:16552723
  10. Results describe the effect of suppression of connexin 43 and E-cadherin on the development, mRNA and protein expression of bovine blastocysts cultured in vitro or in vivo. PMID:17219420
