(a) Signalling competent neutrophil: showing (i) release of Ca2+ from vER; (ii) uptake by energized mitochondria; and (iii) signalling Ca2+ influx. (b) Neutrophil approaching apoptosis with non-energized mitochondria; showing (i) release of Ca2+ from vER, (ii) no uptake by non-energized mitochondria, and (iii) lack of signalling Ca2+ influx.
