Take a look behind the scenes of an article recently published in Nature Methods entitled “jYCaMP: an optimized calcium indicator for two-photon imaging at fiber laser wavelengths” as we invite first ...

Mitochondria are crucial for maintaining calcium balance in cells, but their calcium dynamics are challenging to study due to pH changes in the mitochondrial matrix, and the lack of cyan-colored GECIs ...

When neurons fire an electrical impulse, they also experience a surge of calcium ions. By measuring those surges, researchers can indirectly monitor neuron activity, helping them to study the role of ...

Researchers at MIT have developed a calcium indicator, or sensor, that can overcome one of the main problems associated with a technique that is used to visualize, or map the activity of individual ...

A new calcium indicator called Calcium Green FlAsH allows researchers to monitor rapid and localized calcium dynamics in the cell. Got calcium? It's not just for strong bones. Calcium is an important ...

New ultra-fast sensors developed at Janelia can detect calcium ions nearly as fast as they are released from neurons, allowing scientists to tease out the individual, milliseconds-long signals passing ...

Calcium signaling is essential for cellular communication, orchestrating a myriad of physiological processes. As the quest for a more profound understanding of cellular dynamics intensifies, calcium ...
