calciumhandling
Calcium handling refers to the complex biological processes by which cells and organisms manage the concentration of calcium ions (Ca2+). Calcium is a crucial intracellular messenger, involved in a vast array of cellular functions including muscle contraction, neurotransmitter release, gene expression, and cell division. Due to its critical roles, maintaining precise intracellular calcium levels is essential for cell survival and proper physiological function.
Cells utilize a variety of mechanisms to regulate calcium. These include the controlled movement of calcium
Disruptions in calcium handling can have significant pathological consequences. Imbalances, leading to either excessive calcium (calcium
