The regional distribution of gap junction mRNAs was examined in the adult rat brain. The level of connexin43 mRNA is more abundant than connexin32, being homogeneously distributed throughout different regions of brain. In contrast, there is dramatic heterogeneity in the level of connexin32 mRNA, with the highest level in the hindbrain. These results suggest that the gap junction genes are differentially expressed in regions of the adult rat brain.
在成年大鼠脑中检测了缝隙连接mRNA的区域分布。连接蛋白43 mRNA的水平比连接蛋白32更丰富,在脑的不同区域均匀分布。相比之下,连接蛋白32 mRNA的水平存在显著异质性,在后脑中水平最高。这些结果表明缝隙连接基因在成年大鼠脑的不同区域差异表达。
