Synopsis Calcium Signalling in Alzheimer’s Disease by : Mounia Chami
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most well-known neurodegenerative disorder, causing dementia. In recent decades, several studies have reported calcium dysregulation in AD occurring through the intervention of several calcium receptors and channels, and affecting different cellular compartments, such as mitochondria, the endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes, and microdomains within the plasma membrane. Calcium signalling dysregulation is now considered a common proximal cause of dysfunctional neurons and glial supporting cells. This book gathers the newest results and advances in calcium signaling deregulation mechanisms in AD, how they are linked to other players involved in AD, and the potential therapies targeting calcium alterations to treat AD.

Synopsis Investigating Aberrant Neuronal Calcium Signalling in Alzheimer's Disease by : Joe Atherton
Substantial evidence indicates that aberrant neuronal Ca2+ regulation may contribute to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The aim of this thesis was to further investigate cellular events associated with elevated neuronal Ca2+ in AD. Proteins altered by increased Ca2+ concentration were assessed in post-mortem neurodegenerative disease brain. Increased amounts of active calpain-1 and decreased amounts of active calpastatin, an endogenous calpain inhibitor, were found in AD brain in comparison to control tissue. In addition, elevated calpain-mediated cleavage of several proteins was found in AD brain, including that of the sodium calcium exchanger (NCX3), which normally acts to extrude excess cellular Ca2+. Mechanisms that contribute to increases in neuronal Ca2+ concentration in AD were identified using a primary culture model of AD. Application of oligomeric A[beta] 1-42 to cells was shown to increase the activity of calpains, caspase-3 and induce tau phosphorylation and cleavage through a pathway dependent upon poly-ADP ribose mediated gating of transient receptor potential cation channel, melatonin subfamily 2 (TRPM2) channels. Finally, to begin to examine the potential role of selected neuronal Ca2+ sensors (NCS) in AD, their expression and distribution was examined in primary neurons under different conditions, and in postmortem AD brain. Decreases in the amounts of two of these proteins, DREAM and hippocalcin, were apparent following A[beta] treatment of primary cortical cultures, and A[beta]-induced a Ca2+-dependent relocalisation of hippocalcin within cells, a phenomenon believed to alter the function of this protein. Therefore, these results may suggest that alterations in NCS proteins influence the response of neurons to A[beta]-induced increases in cellular Ca2+ concentration.

Synopsis Calcium Signaling: From Physiology to Diseases by : Senthilkumar Rajagopal
This book focuses on disorders of calcium channels and the use of drugs to treat calcium-related disorders and their associated toxicities. In particular, it discusses the role of various natural products and their attributes in preventing problems associated with calcium imbalances. In addition, the book analyzes trends in the processing of natural products using nanotechnology and their implications in calcium-related disorders. Lastly, it explores some of the most promising aspects of research into calcium signalling disorders – which is especially important, given the wide variety of cellular processes that are controlled by calcium ions – and provides a trustworthy source of up-to-date information in this area of research.

Synopsis Calcium Signaling in Biology and Medicine by : Mylo Sanders
The process that increases low cytoplasmic concentrations in order to activate specific, essential events required by the cell is defined as calcium signaling. It uses calcium ions (Ca2+) to communicate and carry out intracellular processes often as a step in signal transduction. Calcium signaling plays a crucial role in the regulation of a diverse set of essential functions within the human body. The management of various neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Huntington's disease (HD), and Parkinson's disease (PD) requires calcium signaling. It has been observed that disruption in calcium signaling may lead to synaptic deficits which further leads to accumulation of Aβ plaques and neurofibrillary tangles. Calcium plays an important role in various biological processes and calcium signaling has been linked to various diseases. Therefore, it is currently being explored as a therapeutic target for various types of cancer. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to the importance of calcium signaling in biology and medicine. It will serve as a valuable source of reference for those interested in this field of study.

Synopsis Calcium Homeostasis and Signaling in Aging by : M.P. Mattson
This volume of Advances in Cell Aging and Gerontology reviews the mechanisms that regulate cellular calcium homeostasis in various tissues throughout the body and how these systems change during aging. Normal functions of calcium in regulating various physiological processes are considered and the evidence supporting roles for perturbed calcium regulation in the pathogenesis of several prominent age-related disorders are detailed. The cross-disciplinary approach used to organize this book should provide readers interested in a specific area of calcium regulation with a broader perspective and a framework for which to shape future studies in their laboratories.
