“Orphan” Connexin43 in Plakophilin-2 Deficient Hearts Revealed by Volume Electron Microscopy

Previous studies revealed an abundance of functional Connexin43 (Cx43) hemichannels consequent to loss of plakophilin-2 (PKP2) expression in adult murine hearts. The increased Cx43-mediated membrane permeability is likely responsible for excess entry of calcium into the cells, leading to an arrhythm...
