Detailed knowledge on the biophysical mechanisms and local intercompartmental dynamics by which fluid and solute transport is achieved and regulated at the cellular and subcellular level is lacking. In this paper, cultures of immortalised human retin... Read More about Multimodal imaging of fluid transport in living epithelial sheets.

Functional gap junctions accumulate at the immunological synapse and contribute to T cell activation (2011)
Journal Article
Mendoza-Naranjo, A., Bouma, G., Pereda, C., Ramiŕez, M., Webb, K. F., Tittarelli, A., …Salazar-Onfray, F. (2011). Functional gap junctions accumulate at the immunological synapse and contribute to T cell activation. Journal of Immunology, 187(6), 3121-3132. https://doi.org/10.4049/jimmunol.1100378

Gap junction (GJ) mediates intercellular communication through linked hemichannels from each of two adjacent cells. Using human and mouse models, we show that connexin 43 (Cx43), the main GJ protein in the immune system, was recruited to the immunolo...
