The for novel inhibitors of auxin-Induced Ca2+ signaling

, 2020
Ca2+-based second messenger signaling is used by many signal perception mechanisms to modulate specific cellular responses. The well-characterized phytohormone auxin elicits a very rapid Ca2+ signal, but the molecular players involved in auxin-induced ...

Intracellular Ca2+ is not essential for SHH signaling but is promoted by Shh ligand in embryonic fibroblasts

BMC Molecular and Cell Biology
Background Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) signaling pathway controls cell proliferation, differentiation, and organ formation. The changes in Ca2+ and their regulatory role in the context of activated SHH signaling have not been fully examined.

Host-derived stimuli alter intracellular calcium levels in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, revealing its potential role as a second messenger

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Calcium signaling is a fundamental cellular communication mechanism, well established in eukaryotes, that relies on calcium ions (Ca2+) acting both as first and second messengers to regulate diverse life-sustaining processes.

Annexin A5 controls VDAC1-dependent mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis and determines cellular susceptibility to apoptosis

The EMBO Journal
Annexin A5 (AnxA5) is a Ca2+-dependent phospholipid-binding protein associated with the regulation of intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis. However, the precise role of AnxA5 in controlling mitochondrial Ca2+ signaling remains elusive.

Organelle-specific crosstalk between calcium and redox signaling in pancreatic β-cells in physiology and type 2 diabetes

Frontiers in Network Physiology
Two of the main intracellular signaling molecules in pancreatic β-cells are calcium (Ca2+) and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Ca2+ signaling is essential for regulating energy metabolism, insulin secretion, and the modulation of key factors involved in β-

The Ca2+-binding protein CSE links Ca2+-signaling with cell-cell communication in multicellular cyanobacteria

Because of their multicellular lifestyle, filamentous cyanobacteria have evolved sophisticated cell-cell communication machinery to exchange, synchronize, and coordinate the efforts of individual cells in the filament.
