Cxs and Panx- hemichannels in peripheral and central chemosensing in mammals

Connexins (Cxs) and Pannexins (Panx) form hemichannels at the plasma membrane of animals. Despite their low open probability under physiological conditions, these hemichannels release signaling molecules (i.e., ATP, Glutamate, PGE(2)) to the extracellular space, thus subserving several important phy...
