English: Eye lens epithelial cells use gap junction and hemichannel distributed connexins to connect directly with neighboring cells and via the extracellular space respectively. Most of the gap junction plaques appear at the interface between epithelial cells. The face of epithelial cells towards the viewer, normally adjacent the fiber cells, appears to have predominantly non-clustered hemichannels. The fiber cells rely on the epithelial cells for metabolite exchange with the aqueous humor.
