Calcium (Ca2+) is a unique mineral that serves as both a nutrient and a signal in all
eukaryotes. To maintain Ca2+ homeostasis for both nutrition and signaling purposes, the …

Meta-analyses of genome-wide association studies (meta-GWASs) and candidate gene
studies have identified genetic variants associated with cardiovascular diseases, metabolic …

Calcium is a universal signal in all eukaryotes, but the mechanism for encoding calcium
signatures remains largely unknown. Calcium oscillations control pollen tube growth and …

The establishment of a functioning neuronal network is a crucial step in neural development.
During this process, neurons extend neurites—axons and dendrites—to meet other neurons …

Membrane‐less organelles, because of their capacity to dynamically, selectively and
reversibly concentrate molecules, are very well adapted for local information processing and …

The formation of the nervous system involves establishing complex networks of synaptic
connections between proper partners. This developmental undertaking requires the rapid …

In this review we describe the present knowledge about store operated Ca 2+ entry (SOCE)
in neurons and the proteins involved in this process: STIM, as well as Orai and TRP …

Stable and predictive neural cell culture models are a necessary premise for many research
fields. However, conventional 2D models lack 3D cell‐material/‐cell interactions and hence …

Brain development relies on dynamic morphogenesis and interactions of neurons. Filopodia
are thin and highly dynamic membrane protrusions that are critically required for neuronal …

Nerve injuries are common, and the available treatments including invasive surgeries do not
guarantee complete regeneration of the injured nerves and restoration of function. Despite …
