Cell Calcium across the Phylogenetic Tree: From Physiological Signaling to Pathogenic Mechanisms
Calcium signaling is the most versatile and evolutionarily conserved means of controlling cellular functions from invertebrates to mammals. Investigation of calcium signaling mechanisms in different animals along the phylogenetic tree not only revealed important knowledge about animal physiology, but also helped to elucidate the pathogenic role of the deranged Ca2+-handling machinery in human pathology.
The Special Issue “Cell calcium across the phylogenetic tree: from physiological signaling to pathogenic mechanisms” welcomes original contributions related to the physiology and pathology of Ca2+ signals, components of the Ca2+ signaling toolkit, Ca2+regulated proteins and processes studied in the species populating the Earth.
In this webinar, I am pleased to welcome Drs. Luigia Santella, Letizia Zullo and Petronella Kettunen, with their bright examples of the investigation of Ca2+ signaling in three different animal phyla: echinoderms (starfish and sea urchin), mollusks (octopus) and chordate (zebrafish), respectively.
