Connexin 43 hemichannels mediate the Ca(2+) influx induced by extracellular alkalinization

Although alkaline pH is known to trigger Ca(2+) influx in diverse cells, no pH-sensitive Ca(2+) channel has been identified. Here, we report that extracellular alkalinization induces opening of connexin 43 hemichannels (Cx43 HCs). Increasing extracellular pH from 7.4 to 8.5, in the presence of physi...
