Connection probabilities, FSI-FSI and PN-FSI connections
| TypeParameters | Gap Junction between FSIs | FSI to FSI | Unidirectional FSI to PN | Unidirectional PN to FSI | Reciprocal PN to FSI | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Overall connectivity | 8% | 26% | 34% | 12% | 16% | |||
| Connectivity of subtype | -- | Unidirectional | Bi-directional | -- | -- | -- | ||
| Between coupled FSIs | Between uncoupled FSIs | Between coupled FSIs | Between uncoupled FSIs | -- | ||||
| 50% | 19% | 25% | 3% | -- | ||||
Data is from in vitro BLA reports (Woodruff and Sah, 2007) limiting connectivity from/to FSIs to within ∼300 μm (also, see Cammarota et al., 2013).
