TRPC channels and store-operated Ca2+ entry
Store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) is a major mechanism for Ca(2+) influx. Since SOCE was first proposed two decades ago many techniques have been used in attempting to identify the nature of store-operated Ca(2+) (SOC) channels. The first identified and best-characterised store-operated current is I(CRAC), but a number of other currents activated by ...

Lithium- Sensitive Store-Operated Ca2+ Entry in the Regulation of FGF23 Release
Background/Aims: Lithium, a widely used drug for the treatment of mood disorders, has previously been shown to stimulate the release of fibroblast growth factor FGF23, a powerful regulator of 1,25(OH)2D3 formation and mineral metabolism.

Molecular Determinants for STIM1 Activation During Store- Operated Ca2+ Entry. [PDF]
STIM/ORAI-mediated store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) mediates a myriad of Ca2+-dependent cellular activities in mammals. Genetic defects in STIM1/ORAI1 lead to devastating severe combined immunodeficiency; whereas gain-offunction mutations in STIM1/ORAI1 are intimately associated with tubular aggregate myopathy. At molecular level, a decrease in the Ca2+

Caffeine-induced Ca2+ oscillations in type I horizontal cells of the carp retina and the contribution of the store-operated Ca2+ entry pathway. [PDF]
The mechanisms of release, depletion, and refilling of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+ were investigated in type I horizontal cells of the carp retina using a fluo-3-based Ca2+ imaging technique.

Thapsigargin (TG) inhibits the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA) pump and, when applied acutely, it initiates a Ca2+ mobilisation that begins with the loss of Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and culminates with store-operated Ca2 ...

Store‐operated Ca2+ entry depends on mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake [PDF]
Store-operated Ca(2+) channels, which are activated by the emptying of intracellular Ca(2+) stores, provide one major route for Ca(2+) influx. Under physiological conditions of weak intracellular Ca(2+) buffering, the ubiquitous Ca(2+) releasing messenger InsP(3) usually fails to activate any store-operated Ca(2+) entry unless mitochondria are ...

Shaped by leaky ER: Homeostatic Ca2+ fluxes
At any moment in time, cells coordinate and balance their calcium ion (Ca2+) fluxes. The term ‘Ca2+ homeostasis’ suggests that balancing resting Ca2+ levels is a rather static process.

Lafutidine-Induced Increase in Intracellular Ca2+ Concentrations in PC12 and Endothelial Cells
Lafutidine, a histamine H2 receptor antagonist, exerts gastroprotective effects in addition to gastric antisecretory activity. The gastrointestinal protective effects of lafutidine are mediated by capsaicin-sensitive neurons, where capsaicin excites ...

Calcium Transport in Specialized Dental Epithelia and Its Modulation by Fluoride
Most cells use calcium (Ca2+) as a second messenger to convey signals that affect a multitude of biological processes. The ability of Ca2+ to bind to proteins to alter their charge and conformation is essential to achieve its signaling role.
