CO<sub>2</sub>-Sensitive Connexin Hemichannels in Neurons and Glia: Three Different Modes of Signalling?

Connexins can assemble into either gap junctions (between two cells) or hemichannels (from one cell to the extracellular space) and mediate cell-to-cell signalling. A subset of connexins (Cx26, Cx30, Cx32) are directly sensitive to CO<sub>2</sub> and fluctuations in the level within a ph...
