17. C1019T polymorphism in the connexin 37 gene is associated with Helicobacter pylori infection and gastric cancer. PMID: 22901223

19. GJA4 polymorphism is not associated with stroke risk in the Taiwanese population. PMID: 22305353
20. We propose that the establishment of gap junctional communication between Cx37-expressing platelets provides a mechanism to limit thrombus propensity. PMID: 21810657
21. In women with higher fasting glycemia TT genotype of Cx37 polymorphism was protective against subclinical atherosclerosis. PMID: 21617605
22. The gene for Cx37 was associated with subclinical atherosclerosis in women with type 1 and 2 diabetes and in women with advanced central obesity. PMID: 21208019
23. Connexin 37 genetic variants significantly affect carotid IMT and contribute to future development of ischemic stroke PMID: 21044781

25. Cx37 C1019T polymorphism is associated with tumour cell proliferation. PMID: 20705954
26. Data show for the first time a functional and specific interaction between eNOS and Cx37 in endothelial cells. PMID: 20081116
27. These data suggest that alterations of specific connexins, in this case connexin 37, and resulting changes in intercellular communication may modulate endothelial cell growth and death. PMID: 15194487
28. NO inhibits the intercellular transfer of small molecules by a specific influence on Cx37 PMID: 15481066
29. Here, data for human connexin37 (hCx37) hemichannels indicate that voltage gating can be explained as block/unblock without the necessity for an independent voltage gate. PMID: 15504903
30. T1019 Cx37 SNP has shown to be a risk factor for acute myocardial infarction (AMI). PMID: 15982495

34. Connexin 37 is expressed in the granulosa layer of follicles in the human ovary, and expression of Cx37 in granulosa cells was not different between poor responder and nonpoor responder to ovulation induction. PMID: 17531234
