BACKGROUND: The influx of extracellular Ca(2+) into mast cells is critical for the FcεR1-dependent release of preformed granule-derived mediators and newly synthesised autacoids and cytokines. The Orai(CRACM) ion channel family provide the major pathway through which this Ca(2+) influx occurs. Ho...
