    T-cell calcium dynamics visualized in a ratiometric tdTomato-GCaMP6f transgenic reporter mouse

    Tobias X Dong, Shivashankar Othy ... Michael D Cahalan
    Salsa6f is a novel, ratiometric genetically encoded Ca2+ indicator that combines the power of ratiometric chemical Ca2+ indicators with the ability, when expressed transgenically, to image cellular Ca2+ signals amid complex tissue environments in vivo.

    Graded Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent coupling of voltage-gated CaV1.2 channels

    Rose E Dixon, Claudia M Moreno ... Luis F Santana
    The Ca2+-driven functional coupling of CaV1.2 channels is a mechanism of channel memory that may modulate the amplification of Ca2+ influx.

    Endothelial pannexin 1–TRPV4 channel signaling lowers pulmonary arterial pressure in mice

    Zdravka Daneva, Matteo Ottolini ... Swapnil K Sonkusare
    Endothelial pannexin 1-P2Y2 purinergic receptor-TRPV4 channel signaling, facilitated by caveolin-1, is a novel pathway for lowering pulmonary arterial pressure.

    Ca2+ entry into neurons is facilitated by cooperative gating of clustered CaV1.3 channels

    Claudia M Moreno, Rose E Dixon ... Luis F Santana
    CaV1.3 channels of the short isoform are coupled via their C-terminal domains in a Ca2+-CaM-dependent manner, which facilitates Ca2+ influx and increases the discharge of hippocampal neurons.

    Neuroprotective effects of TRPA1 channels in the cerebral endothelium following ischemic stroke

    Paulo Wagner Pires, Scott Earley
    Acute hypoxia activates TRPA1 channels in cerebral artery endothelial cells to activate an early adaptive response to reduce tissue ischemic damage through vasodilation.

    Intermittent Ca2+ signals mediated by Orai1 regulate basal T cell motility

    Tobias X Dong, Shivashankar Othy ... Michael D Cahalan
    Orai1 channels activate intermittently in motile T cells, generating calcium transients, detected by a novel genetically encoded indicator and inducing pauses that favor antigen scanning.

    Kv2.1 mediates spatial and functional coupling of L-type calcium channels and ryanodine receptors in mammalian neurons

    Nicholas C Vierra, Michael Kirmiz ... James S Trimmer
    A potassium channel, as a nonconducting function, organizes compartmentalized neuronal calcium signaling microdomains via structural and functional coupling of plasma membrane and endoplasmic reticulum calcium channels.

    SPARK regulates AGC kinases central to the Toxoplasma gondii asexual cycle

    Alice L Herneisen, Michelle L Peters ... Sebastian Lourido
    Genetic and proteomic analyses reveal that the SPARK kinase, which is a regulator of key life-cycle transitions in the parasite Toxoplasma gondii, complexes with an elongin-like protein to regulate several important AGC-family kinases.
