ADVANTAGES AND LIMITATIONS OF COMMONLY USED METHODS TO ASSAY THE MOLECULAR PERMEABILITY OF GAP JUNCTIONAL INTERCELLULAR COMMUNICATION

Advantages and limitations of commonly used methods to assay the molecular permeability of gap junctional intercellular communication

The role of gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) in regulation of normal growth and differentiation is becoming increasingly recognized as a major cellular function.GJIC consists of intercellular exchange of low molecular weight molecules, and is the only means for direct contact between cytoplasms of adjacent animal cells.Disturbances

Theileria equi isolates vary in susceptibility to imidocarb dipropionate but demonstrate uniform in vitro susceptibility to a bumped kinase inhibitor

Abstract Background The apicomplexan hemoparasite Theileria equi is a causative agent of equine piroplasmosis, eradicated from the United States in 1988.However, recent outbreaks have sparked renewed interest in treatment options for infected horses.Imidocarb dipropionate is the current drug of choice, however variation in clinical response to ther
