Ca2+ signals co-ordinate zygotic polarization and cell cycle progression in the brown alga, Fucus serratus. [PDF]
Zygotes of the fucoid brown algae provide excellent models for addressing fundamental questions about zygotic symmetry breaking. Although the acquisition of polarity is tightly coordinated with the timing and orientation of the first asymmetric division ...

Kinetic Study of CaCO3 Precipitation Accelerated by High Voltage Impulse
Objectives : Determination of reaction order (n) and rate constants (k) of the CaCO3 scale formation reaction that was accelerated by the HVI (high voltage impulse) induction. Methods : HVI was inducted to the synthetic solution containing 2.5 mM of Ca2+

The Response of Physarum polycephalum to Extracellular Ca2+: Studies on Ca2+ Nutrition, Ca2+ Fluxes and Ca2+ Compartmentation [PDF]
Summary: The calcium requirement for optimal growth of Physarum polycephalum is between 0.05 and 2.5 mM. Media without Ca2+ will not support growth though Ca2+-chelating agents, such as EDTA and EGTA, do not have any marked effect on Ca2+ availability at the low pH used to culture this organism. The intracellular Ca2+ concentration varies approximately

In adrenal fasciculata cells stimulated by ACTH, Ca2+ and cAMP play indispensable roles as second messengers in cortisol production. However, whether their second messengers cooperatively or independently participate in steroid production remains unclear.

Effects of Monovalent and Divalent Cations on Ca2+ Fluxes Across Chromaffin Secretory Membrane Vesicles [PDF]
: Bovine chromaffin secretory vesicle ghosts loaded with Na+ were found to take up Ca2+ when incubated in K+ media or in sucrose media containing micromolar concentrations of free Ca2+. Li+- or choline+loaded ghosts did not take up Ca2+.

It is difficult to adjust the pH of oil acidized wastewater rich in Ca2+, thus hindering the polyacrylamide (PAM) flocculation. This study aims at accelerating the flocculation process by introducing CO2 into the water to induce the formation of CaCO3 ...

Ca2+-dependent Transcriptional Control of Ca2+ Homeostasis [PDF]
Intracellular free Ca(2+) ions regulate many cellular functions, and in turn, the cell devotes many genes/proteins to keep tight control of the level of intracellular free Ca(2+). Here, we review recent work on Ca(2+)-dependent mechanisms and effectors that regulate the transcription of genes encoding proteins involved in the maintenance of the ...

ER localized bestrophin1 activates Ca2+ dependent ion channels TMEM16A and SK4 [PDF]
Bestrophins form Ca2+ activated Cl- channels and regulate intercellular Ca2+ signaling1. We demonstrate that bestrophin 1 is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where it physically interacts with stromal interacting molecule 1 (Stim1), the ER ...
