Gap junctions and cochlear homeostasis.

The Journal of membrane biology - 1 Jan 2000

Zhao H-B, Kikuchi T, Ngezahayo A, White T W

Abstract excerpt

Gap junctions play a critical role in hearing and mutations in connexin genes cause a high incidence of human deafness. Pathogenesis mainly occurs in the cochlea, where gap junctions form extensive networks between non-sensory cells that can be divided into two independent gap junction systems, the epithelial cell gap junction system and the connective tissue cell gap junction system. At least four different...
