abstract：:Ca2+ signals regulate most aspects of animal cell life. They are of particular importance to the nervous system, in which they regulate specific functions, from neuronal development to synaptic plasticity. The homeostasis of cell Ca2+ must thus be very precisely regulated: in all cells Ca2+ pumps transport it from the...
