Mitochondrial oversight of cellular Ca2+ signaling

D F Babcock et al. Curr Opin Neurobiol. 1998 Jun.

Abstract

Mitochondria, the metabolic powerhouses of the cell, can sequester and release large amounts of Ca2+. This import and export of Ca2+ helps to adjust energy production to cellular needs. Recent advances show that mitochondrial Ca2+ fluxes play a major role in normal Ca2+ signaling.
