Publication Link Summary of findings
11024208 Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
11295246 Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
11545686 Observational study of genetic testing. (HuGE Navigator)
11835375 Observational study of genotype prevalence. (HuGE Navigator)
17200131 Observational study of genetic testing. (HuGE Navigator)
17714866 This studies identified a L89P mutation for the first time in a CMTX1 family in China and an associated response to PMP22 in males.
17546509 a cross-talk between CFTR and a variety of gap junction channels. Cytoskeletal scaffolding proteins and/or other intermediate cytoplasmic proteins are likely to play a role in CFTR-connexins interaction.
17620124 Two novel mutations in the connexin32 gene are more severe than the majority of previously described mutations possibly due to the severe structural change of the gap junction they encode.
17565422 we refer to a new aspect of Cx32-dependent functions against cell proliferation, invasion and metastasis in RCC cells, especially in a GJIC-independent manner[review]
12775342 A mutation of the Cx32 gene is identified, consisting of a guanine to adenine transition at position 271 (271G-A) in a large Turkish family (N=39) with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.
12542510 These findings suggest that some gain of function mutations of GJB1 may be related to CNS symptoms because the patients with GJB1 deletion only had peripheral neuropathy.
14960772 molecular genetic analysis of the GJB1 gene in Charcot-Marie-Tooth type X1 disease
16373087 This study identified a novel substitution T>C in the P2 promoter of GJB1 at position -529, in the SOX10 binding site S2 in a family with X-linked dominant Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy.
15334670 mRNA level correlates with cell differentiation, nd is predictive of postopoperative recurrence in hepatocellular carcinoma.
14663144 Mutation (D178Y) that causes an inherited peripheral neuropathy induces a complete Ca2+ deregulation of Cx32 hemichannel activity.
15704645 The connexin 32 were sparsely distributed In epithelial cells.
16079393 Cx32 is prenylated, but that prenylation is not required for proper trafficking of Cx32 and perhaps not even for certain aspects of its function, in myelinating Schwann cells.
16096811 Four novel connexin 32 mutations in X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease with phenotypic variability.
17052905 We describe an Italian family with an intermediate CMTX phenotype with late onset. Mutation screening of the GJB1 gene revealed a 9-bp duplication leading to the insertion of three aminoacids.
12536289 G/A transition (Ala40Thr)in a conserved transmembrane region of the connexin-32 gene was also found associated with X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease
12849984 Data show that connexin 32 (Cx32)-transfected HepG2 cells not only expressed a higher level of Cx32 mRNA, but also showed increased gap junctional intercellular communication.
12205082 alpha-catenin facilitates trafficking of connexins 32 and 43 to the cell surface and induces gap junction assembly
15006706 10 of 22 CMTX Cx32 mutations studied in the present investigation could lead to the assembly of defective Cx32 gap junctions, which in turn may result in peripheral neuropathy
15508871 Nine patients had clinical features of X-linked dominant inheritance and a moderate Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy phenotype showed a G-to-A transition at position -215 of the nerve-specific promoter P2 of the Cx32 gene.
17372902 cytoplasmic Cx32 protein exerts effects favourable for HCC progression, such as invasion and metastasis, once the cells have acquired a malignant phenotype.
11891346 Voltage opens unopposed gap junction hemichannels formed by a connexin 32 mutant associated with X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease
12717835 gap junctional intercellular communication in hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines, and signal transduction mechanism of gap junction genes connexin32, connexin43 in hepatocarcinogenesis.
15947997 A Charcot-Marie-Tooth syndrome in a family with a missense mutation in GJB1.
17353473 Most GJB1 mutations cause neuropathy by a loss of normal connexin 32 function.
17569045 Connexin 32 may contribute to the enhancement of vinorelbine-induced cytotoxicity in A549 lung cancer cells.
15470753 This study identified a large Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease family with a novel mutation in the Connexin 32 (Cx32) P2 promoter region at position -526bp.
14688024 Transgenic mice with the mutant Cx32 gene are more susceptible to diethylnitrosamine-induced hepatocarcinogenesis, developing more liver tumors with shorter latency.
15685554 Cpmmexom 32 was found intracellularly in activated hepatic stellate cells.
12111842 Cx32 mutants that are associated with a CNS phenotype do not interact with Cx45, but may instead have other toxic effects in oligodendrocytes.
12362307 A new mutation in the connexin 32 gene of a Chinese family with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease associated with central conduction slowing
15703409 Human Cx32 protein "rescued" the phenotype of cx32-null mice. The transgenic mice have less demyelinated or remyelinated axons than nontransgenic littermates. Loss of Schwann-cell-autonomous expression of Cx32 is sufficient for demyelination in CMT1X.
16790356 In transgenic mice that express the R142W mutation in myelinating Schwann cells, the Arg142Trp mutant protein is aberrantly localized to the Golgi, indicating that it does not traffic properly.
