Calcium in Living Cells will update classic techniques in detecting microscopic levels of calcium ions (Ca2+) in living cells, as well as address new techniques in the field of calcium detection and calcium signaling.

... Ca2+. However, aside from this special case, Ca2+ influx through AMPA receptors does not seem to play a major role in astrocyte Ca2+ signaling because in most brain regions astrocytes express AMPA receptors that contain the GluR2 sub ...

... Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The positive feedback (+ve) of Ca2+ on the IP3 receptor (IP3 R. CICR and R limit initiates the Ca2+ Ca2+-induced increase. Some Ca2+ release (CICR) through the IP3 The elevated Ca2+ has ...

... Ca2+ mobilization and Ca2+ entry mechanisms coupled to the α mesenteric 1 -adrenoceptor arteries in were resistance kept in a arteries, nominally endothelium-denuded Ca2+-free medium, stimulated with PE and further activated with ...

... Ca2+] i may be regulated independently, Ca2+ waves generated in the cytoplasm can spread into the nucleo- plasm of several cell types. Furthermore, cytoplasmic Ca2+puffs can cause transient increase in nucleoplas- mic [Ca2+]. In HeLa ...

... Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+] i ) (15), but important differences were noted. FcγRIIa used the second messenger of Ca2+ from an internal pool (15), while IP3 to the increase induce release in [Ca2+] i induced by FcγRIIIb did not involve ...
