Two Distinct Heterotypic Channels Mediate Gap Junction Coupling between Astrocyte and Oligodendrocyte Connexins

Genetic diseases demonstrate that the normal function of CNS myelin depends on connexin32 (Cx32) and Cx47, gap junction (GJ) proteins expressed by oligodendrocytes. GJs couple oligodendrocytes and astrocytes (O/A channels) as well as astrocytes themselves (A/A channels). Because astrocytes express d...
