Book Description
This book presents a series of models in the general area of cell physiology and signal transduction, with particular attention being paid to intracellular calcium dynamics, and the role played by calcium in a variety of cell types. Calcium plays a crucial role in cell physiology, and the study of its dynamics lends insight into many different cellular processes. In particular, calcium plays a central role in muscular contraction, olfactory transduction and synaptic communication, three of the topics to be addressed in detail in this book. In addition to the models, much of the underlying physiology is presented, so that readers may learn both the mathematics and the physiology, and see how the models are applied to specific biological questions. It is intended primarily as a graduate text or a research reference. It will serve as a concise and up-to-date introduction to all those who wish to learn about the state of calcium dynamics modeling, and how such models are applied to physiological questions.

Models of Calcium Signalling
Author: Geneviève Dupont
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319296477
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 453
Book Description
This book discusses the ways in which mathematical, computational, and modelling methods can be used to help understand the dynamics of intracellular calcium. The concentration of free intracellular calcium is vital for controlling a wide range of cellular processes, and is thus of great physiological importance. However, because of the complex ways in which the calcium concentration varies, it is also of great mathematical interest.This book presents the general modelling theory as well as a large number of specific case examples, to show how mathematical modelling can interact with experimental approaches, in an interdisciplinary and multifaceted approach to the study of an important physiological control mechanism. Geneviève Dupont is FNRS Research Director at the Unit of Theoretical Chronobiology of the Université Libre de Bruxelles; Martin Falcke is head of the Mathematical Cell Physiology group at the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine, Berlin; Vivien Kirk is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Auckland, New Zealand; James Sneyd is a Professor in the Department of Mathematics at The University of Auckland, New Zealand.

ISBN: 3030124576
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 1110
Book Description
This volume contains a unique selection of chapters covering a wealth of contemporary topics in this ubiquitous and diverse system of cell signaling. It offers much more than the accessibility and authority of a primary text book, exploring topics ranging from the fundamental aspects of calcium signaling to its varied clinical implications. It presents comprehensive discussion of cutting-edge research alongside detailed analysis of critical issues, at the same time as setting out testable hypotheses that point the way to future scientific endeavors. The contributions feature material on theoretical and methodological topics as well as related subjects including mathematical modeling and simulations. They examine calcium signaling in a host of contexts, from mammalian cells to bacteria, fruit fly and zebrafish. With much of interest to newcomers to the field as well as seasoned experts, this new publication is both wide-ranging and authoritative. The chapter “Calcium Signaling: From Basic to Bedside” is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.

Analysing Mathematical Models of Intracellular Calcium Dynamics Using Geometric Singular Perturbation Techniques
Author: Emily Paige Harvey
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Calcium
Languages : en
Pages : 151
Book Description
Oscillations in free intracellular calcium (Ca2+) concentration are known to act as signals in almost all cell types, transmitting messages which control cellular processes including muscle contraction, cellular secretion and neuronal firing. Due to the universal nature of calcium oscillations, understanding the physiological mechanisms that underlie them is of great importance. A key feature of intracellular calcium dynamics that has been found experimentally is that some physiological processes occur much faster than others. This leads to models with variables evolving on very different time scales. In this thesis we survey a range of representative models of intracellular calcium dynamics, using geometric singular perturbation techniques with the aim of determining the usefulness of these techniques and what their limitations are. We find that the number of distinct time scales and the number of variables evolving on each time scale varies between models, but that in all cases there are at least two time scales, with at least two slower variables. Using geometric singular perturbation techniques we identify parameter regimes in which relaxation oscillations are seen and those where canard induced mixed mode oscillations are present. We find that in some cases these techniques are very useful and explain the observed dynamics well, but that the theory is limited in its ability to explain the dynamics when there are three or more distinct time scales in a model. It has been proposed that a simple experiment, whereby a pulse of inositol (1,4,5)- trisphosphate (IP3) is applied to a cell, can be used to distinguish between two competing mechanisms which lead to calcium oscillations [53]. However, detailed mathematical investigation of models has identified an anomalous delay in the pulse responses of some models, making interpretation of the experimental data difficult [14]. In this thesis we find that the response of models to a pulse of IP3 can be understood in part by using geometric singular perturbation techniques. Using recently developed theory for systems with three or more slow variables, we find that the anomalous delay can be due to the presence of folded nodes and their corresponding canard solutions or due to the presence of a curve of folded saddles. This delay due to a curve of folded saddles is a novel delay mechanism that can occur in systems with three or more slow variables. Importantly, we find that in some models the response to a pulse of IP3 is contrary to predictions for all bifurcation parameter values, which invalidates the proposed experimental protocol.
