Calcium signaling and nucleotide metabolism

Calcium signaling and nucleotide metabolism is a research topic within Physiology. Science Explorer counts 12k research works in it since 1950. 30.3% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.

This cluster of papers explores the evolution, function, and dysregulation of lysosomal calcium signaling, focusing on the role of two-pore channels, NAADP, TRPML1, and cyclic ADP-ribose in intracellular calcium release and endolysosomal trafficking. It also investigates the implications of these mechanisms in diseases such as mucolipidosis type IV and lysosomal storage disorders.
