CBC Workshop on Calcium Dynamics in Cardiac Myocytes - November 3, 2009
Contraction of muscular heart cells (myocytes) are triggered by electrical signals, but the intra cellular carrier of this signal is calcium ions. The topic of the workshop was on this intra cellular calcium signalling. Specifically, the focus was on the early phase of the rocess, called the calcium induced calcium release, where a small influx of ions trigger a much larger release from internal compartments. Both the phenomenon itself and the modeling of it was discussed.
