A novel role for FGF and extracellular signal–regulated kinase in gap junction–mediated intercellular communication in the lens

Gap junction–mediated intercellular coupling is higher in the equatorial region of the lens than at either pole, a property believed to be essential for lens transparency. We show that fibroblast growth factor (FGF) upregulates gap junctional intercellular dye transfer in primary cultures of embryon...
