Emerging functions of Pannexin 1 in the eye
Pannexin 1 (Panx1) is a high-conductance, voltage-gated channel protein found in vertebrates. It has been shown that Panx1 is widely expressed in many organs and tissues, including sensory systems. In the eye, Panx1 is expressed in major divisions including the retina, lens and cornea. Panx1 is foun...
