IP3 receptors and store-operated Ca2+ entry: a license to fill [PDF]
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs) are widely expressed intracellular Ca2+ channels that evoke large local increases in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration. By depleting the ER of Ca2+, IP3Rs also activate store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE). Immobile IP3Rs close to the plasma membrane (PM) are the only IP3Rs that respond to physiological stimuli ...

Gastrodin Inhibits Store-Operated Ca2+ Entry and Alleviates Cardiac Hypertrophy
Cardiac hypertrophy is a major risk factor for heart failure, which are among the leading causes of human death. Gastrodin is a small molecule that has been used clinically to treat neurological and vascular diseases for many years without safety issues.

Emerging perspectives in store-operated Ca2+ entry: Roles of Orai, Stim and TRP [PDF]
Depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores induces Ca2+ influx across the plasma membrane through store-operated channels (SOCs). This store-operated Ca2+ influx is important for the replenishment of the Ca2+ stores, and is also involved in many signaling ...

Dysregulation of Neuronal Calcium Signaling via Store-Operated Channels in Huntington's Disease
Huntington's disease (HD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that is characterized by motor, cognitive, and psychiatric problems. It is caused by a polyglutamine expansion in the huntingtin protein that leads to striatal degeneration via the ...

Transverse tubule remodeling enhances Orai1-dependent Ca2+ entry in skeletal muscle
Exercise promotes the formation of intracellular junctions in skeletal muscle between stacks of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) cisternae and extensions of transverse-tubules (TT) that increase co-localization of proteins required for store-operated Ca2 ...

Store-operated Ca2+ entry supports contractile function in hearts of hibernators. [PDF]
Hibernators have a distinctive ability to adapt to seasonal changes of body temperature in a range between 37°C and near freezing, exhibiting, among other features, a unique reversibility of cardiac contractility.

Hydrogen peroxide activates store-operated Ca2+ entry in coronary arteries
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Abnormal Ca2+ metabolism has been involved in the pathogenesis of vascular dysfunction associated with oxidative stress. Here, we have investigated the actions of H2O2 on store-operated Ca2+ (SOC) entry in coronary arteries and ...

Ca2+-independent Phospholipase A2 Is a Novel Determinant of Store-operated Ca2+ Entry [PDF]
Store-operated cation (SOC) channels and capacitative Ca(2+) entry (CCE) play very important role in cellular function, but the mechanism of their activation remains one of the most intriguing and long lasting mysteries in the field of Ca(2+) signaling.
