Intracellular calcium signaling.
In excitable cells, the major pathway for Ca2+ influx is via highly Ca2+-selective voltage-gated Ca2+ channels (VGCC). The original alphabetical nomenclature was replaced recently with standard numerical nomenclature: Cav1.1-1.4, Cav2.1-2.3, Cav3.1-3.3. In skeletal muscle cells, an additional voltagesensitive pathway is provided by dihydropyridine receptors (DHPR, Cav1.1) that do not pass signi...
متن کاملOptimal intracellular calcium signaling.
In many cell types, calcium is released from internal stores through calcium release channels upon external stimulation (e.g., pressure or receptor binding). These channels are clustered with a typical cluster size of about 20 channels, generating stochastic calcium puffs. We find that the clustering of the release channels in small clusters increases the sensitivity of the calcium response, al...
متن کاملTranslating intracellular calcium signaling into models.
The rich experimental data on intracellular calcium has put theoreticians in an ideal position to derive models of intracellular calcium signaling. Over the last 25 years, a large number of modeling frameworks have been suggested. Here, I will review some of the milestones of intracellular calcium modeling with a special emphasis on calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) through inositol-1,4,5-...
متن کاملNeuronal modeling with intracellular calcium signaling.
Cytosolic Ca(2+) ions play an important role in the regulation of numerous aspects of cellular activity in virtually all cell types. There is a complex interaction between the neuronal electrical signals on plasma membrane and the chemical signals of intracellular calcium. Each neuron can be considered as a binary membrane system with plasma membrane and endoplasmic reticulum membrane, and the ...
متن کاملCalcium, channels, intracellular signaling and autoimmunity.
Calcium (Ca²⁺) is an important cation able to function as a second messenger in different cells of the immune system, particularly in B and T lymphocytes, macrophages and mastocytes, among others. Recent discoveries related to the entry of Ca²⁺ through the store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) has opened a new investigation area about the cell destiny regulated by Ca²⁺ especially in B and T lymph...
