1. Calcium transport in the Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas - in a changing environment
Abstract : Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, is globally one of the most important farmed bivalve species. A prominent features of the C. gigas is the thick CaCO3 shell covering the body of the animal and protecting it from the environment. READ MORE

2. Interaction of Calcium Ions with Lipid Membranes
Abstract : Bilayer membranes enclose and shield the biological cell and its inner compartments, as well as the tubular networks that exist within and between the cells. Due to their fluidic nature, the membranes are incredibly dynamic and flexible, which allows them to bend, reshape and fuse in response to mechanical and chemical stimuli within their natural microenvironments.

3. The interplay of ions in the stimulation of the pancreatic -cell
Abstract : Glucose stimulation of insulin release is mediated by depolarisation of the pancreatic β-cells with accompanying entry of Ca2+ through voltage-dependent channels. An important feature of the glucose-induced depolarisation is its rhythmicity causing oscillations of the cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), which trigger pulsatile release of insulin.

4. Calcium signaling in neurogenesis: regulation of proliferation, differentiation and migration of neural stem cells
Abstract : The calcium ion (Ca2+) is a highly versatile and ubiquitous signaling messenger in all cell types. Signal transduction occurs through changes in the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration after the opening of Ca2+ channels in the plasma membrane (PM) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER). READ MORE
