Abstract
► Gap junctions (GJs) provide a direct pathway to expand cell death. ► IP3 transfer through GJs is crucial to provoke bystander apoptosis. ► Additional factors are necessary to convert IP3 into a toxic molecule. ► Various GJ-permeable factors could sensitize cells to IP3-induced apoptosis. ► Intercellular IP3/Ca2 + signaling can play a role in different pathologies.
