Astrocytes are characterized by extensive intercellular communication mediated primarily by gap junction channels composed of connexin43. To examine this junctional protein in astrocytic functions, astrocytes were cultured from embryonic mice with a null mutation in the connexin43 gene (Reaume et al

## Abstract We studied the effect of extremely low frequency (ELF) currents on gap junction intercellular communication (GJIC) mediated by connexin43 protein. Confluent monolayers of synovial fibroblasts (HIG‐82) and neuroblastoma cells (5Y) were exposed in bath solution to 0–75 mA/m^2^ (0–56 mV/m)

Cells rely heavily on cues from their extracellular environment and other cells to coordinate normal physiological processes, and the exchange of molecules via gap junctions has been suggested as an important avenue for cell-cell communication.

We have previously shown that gap-junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) appears to play a role in the bystander effect that is observed in anticancer suicide gene therapy mediated by herpes simplex virus (HSV) thymidine kinase (tk) and ganciclovir (GCV). We now report that when connexin-expr
