The atypical chemokine receptor 3 interacts with Connexin 43 inhibiting astrocytic gap junctional intercellular communication

The atypical chemokine receptor 3 (ACKR3) is known to regulate cell migration, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. Here, the authors show, from an interactome analysis, ACKR3 association with the gap junction protein Connexin 43 in vivo and ACKR3-mediated inhibition of astrocyte gap junctiona...
