Calcium Regulation of Ion Channels in Neurons
Intracellular calcium modulates the activity of a number of voltagedependent ion channels in neurons. This modulation is often functionally important, and can influence the responsiveness of cells to natural inputs. In extreme cases, the regulation of ion channels by intracellular calcium can even determine the pattern of electrical activity of neurons. In this review, I will summarize the role...
متن کاملS100 Calcium Binding Proteins and Ion Channels
S100 Ca(2+)-binding proteins have been associated with a multitude of intracellular Ca(2+)-dependent functions including regulation of the cell cycle, cell differentiation, cell motility and apoptosis, modulation of membrane-cytoskeletal interactions, transduction of intracellular Ca(2+) signals, and in mediating learning and memory. S100 proteins are fine tuned to read the intracellular free C...
متن کاملCalcium-permeable ion channels in pain signaling.
The detection and processing of painful stimuli in afferent sensory neurons is critically dependent on a wide range of different types of voltage- and ligand-gated ion channels, including sodium, calcium, and TRP channels, to name a few. The functions of these channels include the detection of mechanical and chemical insults, the generation of action potentials and regulation of neuronal firing...
متن کاملCalcium-permeable ion channels in the kidney.
Calcium ions (Ca(2+)) are crucial for a variety of cellular functions. The extracellular and intracellular Ca(2+) concentrations are thus tightly regulated to maintain Ca(2+) homeostasis. The kidney, one of the major organs of the excretory system, regulates Ca(2+) homeostasis by filtration and reabsorption. Approximately 60% of the Ca(2+) in plasma is filtered, and 99% of that is reabsorbed by...
متن کاملCalcium Homeostasis and Cone Signaling Are Regulated by Interactions between Calcium Stores and Plasma Membrane Ion Channels
Calcium is a messenger ion that controls all aspects of cone photoreceptor function, including synaptic release. The dynamic range of the cone output extends beyond the activation threshold for voltage-operated calcium entry, suggesting another calcium influx mechanism operates in cones hyperpolarized by light. We have used optical imaging and whole-cell voltage clamp to measure the contributio...
