Ca2+ signaling and STIM1

Progress in Biophysics and Molecular Biology, 2010
An increase in the intracellular calcium ion concentration ([Ca(2+)]) impacts a diverse range of cell functions, including adhesion, motility, gene expression and proliferation. Elevation of intracellular calcium ion (Ca(2+)) regulates various cellular events after the stimulation of cells.

Ca2+ signalling in cardiogenesis

Cell Calcium, 2005
A variety of InsP3-dependent Ca2+ signals coded in time, amplitude and space occur during the process of cardiac cell differentiation and heart development. Studies performed in both embryos and embryonic stem cell differentiating in cardiomyocytes have uncovered that Ca2+ regulates multiple steps of these biological processes in vertebrates.

Ca2+ signaling in prokaryotes

Microbiology, 2014
The role of Ca2+ ions in the regulation of motility, cell cycle, and division of prokaryotes is dis- cussed, as well as their involvement in pathogenesis of come infectious diseases. The structural and functional organization of the prokaryotic Ca2+ signal system and the mechanisms of Ca2+ membrane transport and homeostasis are described.

Ca2+ signaling in mammalian spermatozoa

Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2020
Calcium is an essential ion which regulates sperm motility, capacitation and the acrosome reaction (AR), three processes necessary for successful fertilization. The AR enables the spermatozoon to penetrate into the egg. In order to undergo the AR, the spermatozoon must reside in the female reproductive tract for several hours, during which a series of ...

Local Ca2+ Signals in Cellular Signalling

Current Molecular Medicine, 2004
Local Ca2+ rises and propagated Ca2+ signals represent different patterns that are differentially decoded for fine tuning cellular signalling. This Ca2+ concentration plasticity is absolutely required to allow adaptation to different needs of the cells ranging from contraction or increased learning to proliferation and cell death.

Ca2+ Signaling and Intracellular Ca2+ Binding Proteins

Journal of Biochemistry, 1996
Changes in cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations evoke a wide range of cellular responses and intracellular Ca(2+)-binding proteins are the key molecules to transduce Ca2+ signaling via enzymatic reactions or modulation of protein/protein interations (Fig.1).

Ca2+ as an extracellular signal in bone

Cell Calcium, 2004
Bone is the major sink and store for calcium and it fulfils essential roles in the maintenance of extracellular free ionised calcium concentration ([Ca2+]e) within its homeostatic range (1.1-1.3 mM). In response to acute hypercalcaemia or hypocalcaemia, Ca2+ is rapidly transported into or out of bone.

Lipids in Ca2+ signalling—An introduction

Cell Calcium, 2009
Lipids and lipid-derived metabolites are increasingly recognised as bonafide signalling molecules that regulate many cellular processes. These include the well-established InsP(3), diacylglycerol (DAG), PIP(2), PIP(3) and arachidonic acid (AA), as well as other poly-unsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), lysophospholipids, sphingolipids, endocannabinoids and

Ca2+ Signalling in Pericytes

2018
Microcirculation is the generic name for the finest level of the circulatory system and consists of arteriolar and venular networks located upstream and downstream of capillaries, respectively. Anatomically arterioles are surrounded by a monolayer of spindle-shaped smooth muscle cells (myocytes), while terminal branches of precapillary arterioles ...
