Abstract

The correct spatial and temporal control of Ca2+ signaling is essential for such cellular activities as fertilization, secretion, motility, and cell division. There has been a long-standing interest in the role of caveolae in regulating intracellular Ca2+ concentration. In this review we provide an updated view of how caveolae may regulate both Ca2+ entry into cells and Ca2+-dependent signal transduction
