Gap junctional communication in the adult CNS plays an important role in the synchronization of neuronal activities. In vitro studies have shown evidence of electrotonic coupling through gap...
Abnormal connexin expression underlies delayed wound healing in diabetic skin (2007)
Wang, C.M., Lincoln, J., Cook, J.E., Becker, D.L.
Objective: Dynamically regulated expression of the gap junction protein connexin (Cx)43 plays pivotal roles in wound healing. Cx43 is normally downregulated and Cx26 upregulated in keratinocytes at...

Mori, R., Power, K.T., Wang, C.M., Martin, P., Becker, D.L.
Experimental downregulation of connexin43 (Cx43) expression at skin wound sites appears to markedly improve the rate and quality of healing, but the underlying mechanisms are currently unknown. Here,...
Theodossiou, T.A., Thrasivoulou, C., Ekwobi, C., Becker, D.L.
We performed second harmonic generation (SHG) imaging of collagen in rat-tendon cryosections, using femtosecond laser scanning confocal microscopy, both in backscattering and transmission geometries....
Gap junctions modulate interkinetic nuclear movement in retinal progenitor cells (2005)
Pearson, R.A., Lüneborg, N.L., Becker, D.L., Mobbs, P.
During early retinal development, progenitor cells must divide repeatedly to expand the progenitor pool. During G1 and G2 of the cell cycle, progenitor cell nuclei migrate back-and-forth across the...

JANNAF 30th Propellant Development & Characterization Subcommittee Meeting. Volume I (2004)
This volume, the first of three volumes, is a compilation of 22 unclassified/unlimited technical papers presented at the Joint Army-Navy-NASA-Air Force (JANNAF) 30th Propellant Development &...
Targeting connexin43 expression accelerates the rate of wound repair (2003)
Qiu, C., Coutinho, P., Frank, S., Franke, S., Martin, P., ...
The repair of tissue damage is a key survival process in all organisms and involves the coordinated activation of several cell types. Cell-cell communication is clearly fundamental to this process,...
Marziano, N.K., Casalotti, S.O., Portelli, A.E., Becker, D.L., Forge, A.
Mutations in the gene (GJB2) encoding connexin 26 (cx26) have been linked to sensorineural hearing loss either alone or as part of a syndrome. Here we compare the properties of four cx26 mutants...
Drummond, M.F., Becker, D.L., Hux, M., Chancellor, J.V.M., Duprat-Lomon, I., Kubin, R., ...
Study objective: To evaluate costs, clinical consequences, and cost-effectiveness from a German and French health-care system perspective of sequential IV/po moxifloxacin monotherapy compared to...
Wright, C.S., Becker, D.L., Lin, J.S., Warner, A.E., Hardy, K.
Gap junction communication plays an essential role in follicle growth. Immunocytochemistry and confocal microscopy were used to examine the expression of gap junction connexins of the alpha and beta...
Di, Wei-Li, Lachelin, Gillian C.L., McGarrigle, H.H.G., Thomas, N.S.B., Becker, D.L.
Oestradiol increases the protein expression of connexin43 (Cx43) gap junctions in myometrium but the effect of oestriol on gap junction expression has not been described previously. Oestriol is the...
This workshop was sponsored by the Joint Army-Navy-NASA-Air Force (JANNAF) Combustion Subcommittee. The workshop was held 2-4 May 1988 at The Johns Hopkins University/Applied Physics Laboratory,...
