Activation of store-operated calcium entry in airway smooth muscle cells: insight from a mathematical model.
Intracellular Ca(2+) dynamics of airway smooth muscle cells (ASMC) mediate ASMC contraction and proliferation, and thus play a key role in airway hyper-responsiveness (AHR) and remodelling in asthma. We evaluate the importance of store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) in these Ca(2+) dynamics by constru...
