This allowed them to track changes in calcium ion concentrations in the cells around wounds in living tissue (as opposed to the cell cultures used in many previous wound response studies) and to do so with an unprecedented, millisecond precision.

Previous research had determined that calcium ions play a key role in wound response.

Using near - infrared light, researchers have shown they can selectively activate an immune response by controlling the flow of calcium ions into the cell.

Among the most interesting ones identified were those associated with 1) the large category of transport, and the more specific categories of carbohydrate transport and cation: amino acid symport; 2) several related to calcium, including calcium ion binding, calmodulin binding, and voltage gated calcium channel activity; 3) DNA damage response and signal transduction; 4) response to oxidative stress; and 5) oxygen and reactive oxygen species metabolism.

Using flourescence imaging, the scientists tested calcium response (an important nervous system ion implicated in the symptoms of bipolar disorder) in olfactory nerve cell samples from 17 bipolar patients (10 currently taking medication, 7 medication - free) with those of matched controls.

Titin is activated by calcium ions (Labeit et al. 2003; Cornachione et al. 2016), which are released in response to the action potentials that cause activation of muscle fibers.

Many organisms require supersaturated conditions to form sufficient calcium carbonate shells or skeletons, and biological calcification rates tend to decrease in response to lower carbonate ion concentrations, even when the ambient seawater is still supersaturated.
