## Background: Gap junctional communication (gjc) has been implicated in the control of cell proliferation. numerous cancer cells show a decrease or loss of gjc compared to their normal counterparts. lack of adequate information on the status of gap junctions during prostate neoplasia prompted us t

## Abstract The influence of mast cells upon aberrant wound repair and excessive fibrosis has supportive evidence, but the mechanism for these mast cell activities is unclear. It is proposed that heterocellular gap junction intercellular communication (GJIC) between fibroblasts and mast cells direc
The effects of extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic ยฎeld on gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC), protein levels, and phosphorylation of connexin43 (Cx43) were studied in NIH3T3 cells. The suppression of GJIC by 24 h, 50 Hz, 0.8 mT ELF magnetic ยฎeld, 2 h, 3 ng/ml 12-O-tetradecanoylpho
## Abstract Many studies have correlated reductions in gap junctional intercellular communication (a) with altered cellular growth, tumor promotion, and neoplastic transformation. To test directly whether reduced GJIC affects cellular growth, GJIC was inhibited in murine BALB/c 3T3 fibroblasts by t
