Expression and role of connexins in the rat renal vasculature.

abstract：:Recent studies have greatly expanded our knowledge of initial events that lead to epithelial cell polarity. Epithelial polarity is defined, in part, by apical cell-cell tight junctions that separate the plasma membrane into the apical domain and the basolateral domain, as well as the zonula adherens that mediate inter...
