Cell–cell junctions form the structural and functional backbone of multicellular tissues, coupling adhesive complexes with the actomyosin cytoskeleton to regulate barrier function, tissue remodelling ...

Northwestern Medicine investigators have discovered new mechanisms underlying cellular adhesion and repair, findings that could inform the development of new therapeutics that boost cellular repair ...

Gap junctions are specialised intercellular channels formed by hexameric assemblies of connexin proteins in vertebrates, and related pannexin channels that mediate paracrine signalling. Connexin ...
