Cx43 promotes SHF-DPCs proliferation in the hair follicle of Albas cashmere goats from anagen to telogen
2020, Research in Veterinary ScienceCitation Excerpt :In this study, we found that Cx43 overexpression increased the proliferation of Tel-SHF-DPCs, whereas its knockdown attenuated the proliferation of Ana-SHF-DPCs. Our results are consistent with previous studies indicating that Cx43 promotes cell proliferation in hepatoma (Zhang et al., 2007), osteosarcoma (Gramsch et al., 2001), and prostate cancer(Zhang et al., 2015). Meanwhile, many previous studies have demonstrated the tight link between IGF-1 and cell proliferation of hair follicle (Ben Amitai et al., 2006; Hou et al., 2015; Li et al., 2014).

2017, European Journal of Cell BiologyCitation Excerpt :A complex process of recognition occurs between the two cell types during this crucial phase (Pollmann et al., 2005; Saito-Katsuragi et al., 2007). In line with several studies (Gramsch et al., 2001; Matemba et al., 2006), we found an increase in Cx43 expression in the differentiated osteoblasts. This may explain why we observed GJIC between hOS cells and differentiated osteoblasts at either 7 or 21 days, whereas no cell-cell communication was observed between osteoblast precursors (MSC) and tumour cells.
