“INTEGRINating” the connexin hemichannel function in bone osteocytes through the action of integrin α5

Mechanical loading influences skeletal structural integrity and bone remodeling. Application of a mechanical stimulus such as fluid flow shear stress to the bone osteocytes activates the cascade of mechanotransduction mediated by multiple signaling molecules. Hemichannels formed by connexin molecule...
