Calcium signalling represents a fundamental process in cellular communication, orchestrating diverse physiological responses from muscle contraction to neurotransmission and gene regulation. At the ...
In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers investigated severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) envelope (E) protein activity in terms of calcium ...
Managing Calcium Overload Identified as Novel Therapeutic Approach in Treating Injured Muscle Fibers
Mutations in a calcium ion channel anoctamin 5 (ANO5), commonly found in muscle cells, cause the debilitating disease called limb girdle muscular dystrophy 2L (LGMD2L). Characterized by progressive ...
Researchers have discovered how an ion channel in the brain’s neurons has a kind of ‘molecular memory’, which contributes to the formation and preservation of lifelong memories. The researchers have ...
Towards the end of 2019, the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) appeared on the scene, and practically shut down the world for the next several months. Since then, a slow and ...
Transgenic tobacco leaves after 24 hours of green light exposure: a, plant with anion channel GtACR1; green light-induced membrane potential change (depolarization) is shown on the left. b, plant with ...
Calcium is a very special nutrient. In the cells of most living beings calcium ions function as so-called second messengers to transmit important signals. The same applies equally to animal, plant and ...
When you have atrial fibrillation, the two upper chambers of your heart (atria) don't beat in sync with the two lower chambers (ventricles). This makes your heart beat out of rhythm and sometimes very ...
