Abstract
Recent research has shown the importance of the spatial and temporal aspects of calcium signals, which depend upon regenerative properties of the inositol trisphosphate and ryanodine receptors that regulate the release of calcium from internal stores. Initiation sites have been found to spontaneously release calcium, recognized as 'hot spots' or 'sparks', and can trigger a wave that spreads through a process of calcium-induced calcium release.Entities:
