Microdomain calcium oscillations in Drosophila glia regulate seizure susceptibility and require NCKX
… Ca²+, yet it is unclear whether glial Ca²+ oscillations are required during neuronal signaling. Somatic glial Ca²+ waves are primarily mediated by the release of intracellular Ca²+ stores, and their relative importance in normal brain physiology has been disputed. Recently, near-membrane …

FREQUENCY AND AMPLITUDE CONTROL OF CORTICAL OSCILLATIONS BY LIPID METABOLISM
Dynamic patterns, such as oscillations and waves, of signaling factors are of great importance to cell physiology in single and multicellular systems. Currently, majority of the studies focus primarily on cytoskeleton-dependent feedbacks. In contrast, information on signaling mechanisms upstream of …

Analysing Mathematical Models of Intracellular Calcium Dynamics using Geometric Singular Perturbation Techniques
Oscillations in free intracellular calcium (Ca2+) concentration are known to act as signals in almost all cell types, transmitting messages which control cellular processes including muscle contraction, cellular secretion and neuronal firing. Due to the universal nature of calcium oscillations, …

Thermodynamic and topological characterization of living systems
… gene regulatory dynamics, and intracellular calcium oscillations. Another challenge is to distinguish two amorphous yet structurally different cellular materials, where in contrast to crystals, cellular structures are somewhat disordered. Here, we use information contained in the local …

Influence of Sodium Channel Activation on NMDA Receptor-Mediated Structural Plasticity.
… nM) accelerated the appearance of spontaneous calcium oscillations in cerebrocortical neurons, which could be indicative of enhanced or accelerated functional network and synapse formation. Acute exposure to PbTx-2 increased cell surface expression of NR2B containing NMDARs and TrkB receptors …

Neuronal and Molecular Basis of Nociception and Thermosensation in Drosophila melanogaster
… Significantly, these neurons exhibit elevated calcium levels in response to cooling. dTrpA1 mutants have a premature decay of the cooling response at temperatures below 22 °C during a cooling process. I have also identified another population of cells in the antennae that can respond to …

The Role of Protein S-glutathionylation on Ca2+ Signaling in Cultured Aortic Endothelial Cells
… of diamide reversibly increased spontaneous Ca2+ oscillations, whereas high concentrations (250, 500 ¿¿M) of diamide caused an immediate, synchronized Ca2+ oscillation in essentially all cells examined followed by a time-dependent rise in basal [Ca2+]i. Most strikingly, diamide evoked a …

Stochastic dynamics in olfactory signal transduction and development
… of recently measured experimental results, e.g. oscillations in calcium concentration or the adaptation of the cell towards strong stimuli. This feedback is an experimentally well-established inhibition of cationic channels by the calcium-loaded form of the protein calmodulin. The results of the …
