Gap junctions, made up of connexins (Cxs), play fundamental roles in coordinating a number of cellular processes through their ability to directly regulate cell-cell communication. Cx43 is the most widely expressed Cx in the endometrium and is known to be important in a variety of physiological and pathological processes in this tissue.
