Connexin 43 Hemichannels Regulate Mitochondrial ATP Generation, Mobilization, and Mitochondrial Homeostasis against Oxidative Stress

This study shows that mitochondrial Cx43 hemichannels regulate mitochondrial ATP production and protect osteocytes from oxidative stress by facilitating ion and ATP transfer and interacting with ATP synthase.

Nef enhances HIV-1 replication and infectivity independently of SERINC3 and SERINC5 in CEM T cells

This study shows that HIV-1 Nef enhances replication and infectivity in CEM T cells without relying on SERINC3 or SERINC5 antagonism.
