Intracellular free Ca2+ in the cell cycle in human fibroblasts: transitions between G1 and G0 and progression into S phase.

abstract：:Microtubule-associated protein 1B (MAP1B) is essential for neural development. Besides the abundant expression in neurons, MAP1B recently was found in myelinating oligodendroglia. Moreover, MAP1B deficiency causes delayed myelin development, suggesting the functional importance of MAP1B in oligodendroglia. However, mo...
