Optical single-channel recording by imaging Ca2+ flux through individual ion channels: theoretical considerations and limits to resolution.

abstract：:Ca(2+) is known as a universal messenger mediating a wide variety of cellular processes, including cell death. In fact, this ion has been proposed as the 'cell death master', not only at the intracellular but also at the intercellular level. The most direct form of intercellular spread of cell death is mediated by gap...
