Abstract excerpt
Free Calcium (Ca2+) is an important and universal signalling entity in all cells, red blood cells included. Although mature mammalian red blood cells are believed to not contain organelles as Ca2+ stores such as the endoplasmic reticulum or mitochondria, a 20,000-fold gradient based on a intracellular Ca2+ concentration of approximately 60 nM vs. an extracellular concentration of 1.2 mM makes Ca2+-permeable...
