Abstract. The traditional concept of electrotonic synapses suggests that they synchronize outputs from coupled neurons and provide rapid impulse propagation between pre- and postsynaptic elements. These properties have provided an evolutionary advantage in certain behavioral repertoires, for example, in the rapid impulse propagation between axonal segments in the crayfish and in electrotonic synapses...
Cells of multicellular organisms need to communicate with each other and have evolved various mechanisms for this purpose, the most direct and quickest of which is through channels that directly connect the cytoplasms of adjacent cells. Such intercellular channels span the two plasma membranes and the intercellular space and result from the docking of two hemichannels. These channels are densely packed...
