Gap junction development in the human fetal hair follicle and bulge region

1 Mar 2004

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Gap junctions, composed of connexin (Cx) subunits, are channels that allow intercellular communication between adjacent cells and are thought to play a key role in the regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation. The Cx expression pattern and formation of gap junctions in human fetal hair follicles has yet to be clarified, including the prominent follicular bulge region that is believed to be...
