This book is designed for laboratory use by graduate students, technicians, and researchers in many disciplines, ranging from molecular to cellular levels of investigation.
The definitive text on the key component for cell functions—intracellular calcium This comprehensive book reveals the evidence for intracellular calcium as a universal switch in all animal, plant, fungal and microbial cells.
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.
Text reviews the understanding of the role of calcium in phototransduction, dark-and light-adaptation, recovery from bleaching and return from the dark state, and synaptic signaling of photoreceptors and their second-order neurons.
... Ca2+ fluxes at different stimulation frequencies. As mentioned above, we were able to do this using a spectrofluorometric system (see section “Fluorometric Measurements in Live Myocytes”). Cells were super-fused with 1.5 mM Ca2+ ...
... Ca2+ channel has been observed (Stanley, 1993), in most synap- ses exocytosis appears to normally be due to Ca2+ enter- ing through clusters of Ca2+ channels in active zones and contributing to local high [Ca2+] at docked vesicles: 1 ...
