Abstract

Activation of Ca 2+ channels in Ca 2+ stores in organelles and the plasma membrane generates cytoplasmic calcium ([Ca 2+]c) signals that control almost every aspect of cell function, including metabolism, vesicle fusion and contraction. Mitochondria have a high capacity for Ca 2+ uptake and chelation, alongside efficient Ca 2+ release mechanisms. Still, mitochondria do not store Ca 2+ in a prolonged manner under physiological conditions and lack the capacity to generate global [Ca 2+]c signals. However, mitochondria take up Ca 2+ at high local [Ca 2+]c signals that originate from neighbouring organelles, and also during sustained global elevations of [Ca 2+]c. Accumulated Ca 2+ in the mitochondria stimulates oxidative metabolism and upon return to the cytoplasm, can produce spatially confined rises in [Ca 2+]c to exert control over processes that are sensitive to Ca 2+. Thus, the mitochondrial handling of [Ca 2+]c is of physiological relevance. Furthermore, dysregulation of mitochondrial Ca 2+ handling can contribute to debilitating diseases. We discuss the mechanisms and relevance of mitochondria in local and global calcium signals.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
