This important computational study investigates homeostatic plasticity mechanisms that neurons may employ to achieve and maintain stable target activity patterns. The work extends previous analyses of ...

a group of fat-soluble secosteroids crucial to calcium homeostasis, are essential for the mineralization of bone matrix. Extracellular calcium concentrations are controlled by parathyroid hormone ...

Having too little of these vitamin D metabolites in the body results in the failure to control calcium homeostasis, causing osteoporosis, osteomalacia and rickets. Rickets is a particularly ...

Astrocytic calcium homeostasis is especially crucial to neuronal functions and survival. The researchers examined whether iPSC-derived astrocytes can undergo ATP-induced calcium uptake and ...

I continued to work on calcium homeostasis in the heart after I moved Dalhousie in 1989 as an Assistant Professor in 1989. I have moved up through the ranks at Dalhousie ever since then. I am now ...
