Global and Local Regulation of Neuronal Differentiation by Calcium Transients
Embryonic spinal neurons express ion channels prior to synaptogenesis that mediate specialized forms of excitability promoting Ca 2+ influx. Ca 2+... -
Intestinal Piezo1 aggravates intestinal barrier dysfunction during sepsis by mediating Ca2+ influx
IntroductionIntestinal barrier dysfunction is a pivotal factor in sepsis progression. The mechanosensitive ion channel Piezo1 is associated with...

Modeling Calcium Waves
We present an introduction to the mathematics of calcium waves, both intracellular and intercellular. After a discussion of the earlier models I... -
Cell-surface photochemistry mediated calcium overload for synergistic tumor therapy
Calcium (Ca 2+ ) is essential for mitochondrial homeostasis and function coordination, particularly in cancer cells that metabolize frequently to...

Regulation of Presynaptic Calcium Channels
Voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs), especially Cav2.1 and Cav2.2, are the major mediators of Ca2+ influx at the presynaptic membrane in response... -
Sympathetic Nervous System Regulation of Cardiac Calcium Channels
Calcium influx through voltage-gated calcium channels, Cav1.2, in cardiomyocytes initiates excitation-contraction coupling in the heart. The force... -
Upconverting-photon quenching-mediated perforation influx as an intracellular delivery method using posAuNP@UCNPs nanocomposites for osteoarthritis treatment
Photoporation techniques based on plasmonic nanoparticles such as gold nanoparticles have been extensively studied for the intracellular delivery of...
