Gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) has been proposed as a cellular mechanism for tumour suppression and there is experimental evidence in support of this. If aberrant GJIC contributes to the formation of human breast tumours, one might expect that the connexins (gap junction proteins)
Gap junctions are an important means for intercellular communication during development, processes of tissue differentiation, and in maintenance of adult tissue homeostasis. We investigated the expression levels and distribution of connexin-43 (Cx-43), the most abundant astrocytic gap junction prote
