Abstract excerpt
The gap-junctional proteins connexin43 and connexin42 have been shown to be expressed in the developing and mature avian heart, but their respective spatiotemporal distributions are unknown. In the present study, we have immunolocalized connexin42 in the conduction tissues of the adult avian heart (nonbranching bundle, bundle branches, and Purkinje fibers) and vascular endothelial cells. Connexin43 immunolabeling...
