Calcium ions trigger the exposure of phosphatidylserine on the surface of necrotic cells
2020-08-21
Abstract excerpt
Intracellular Ca 2+ level is under strict regulation through calcium channels and intracellular Ca 2+ storage pools such as the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Mutations in certain ion channel subunits, which result in the mis-regulation of Ca 2+ influx, cause the excitotoxic necrosis of neurons. In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans , six mechanosensory (touch) neurons are induced to undergo excitotoxic necrosis...
