Ouabain Enhances Gap Junctional Intercellular Communication by Inducing Paracrine Secretion of Prostaglandin E2
Ouabain is a cardiac glycoside that has been described as a hormone, with interesting effects on epithelial physiology. We have shown previously that ouabain induces gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) in wild, sensitive cells (MDCK-S), but not in cells that have become insensitive (MD...
