Based on the early transcriptome and digital differentially expressed profiling library construction in consecutive monoculture (two-year culturing) Rehmannia glutinosa, we screened and chose the twelve differentially expressed protein genes which might be related with calcium signal system. The spatiotemporal expression of these genes was measured by the real-time quantitative PCR, and the relative expression values of the genes related with calcium signal system in different development stages and tissues of normal growth (one-year culturing) and succession cropping of R. glutinosa (two-year culturing) was elaborated in detail. In addition, disposed succession cropping of R. glutinosa was treated with different levels of calcium signal blocking agents in order to verify the mode of action of calcium signal system on consecutive monoculture problem in R. glutinosa. Among the twelve genes, two calcium channels away from the cytoplasm were down-regulated expressed, while the ten calcium channels toward the cytoplasm were up-regulated expressed. The results implied that succession cropping caused calcium ions flowing from endoplasmic reticulum to cytoplasm. While the key genes in calcium signal respond components such as CBL, CBP, CIBP, PLC, etc. were down-regulated expressed significantly in succession cropping of R. glutinosa which were disposed with calcium signal blocking agents, the extent of the damage was relieved, and approached the normal growth (one-year culturing) level. This result strongly showed that calcium signal system participated in the perceiving, conducting and magnifying processes of succession cropping obstacles of R. glutinosa.

Mares with endometrosis exhibit histological changes not only in the endometrium but also in the myometrium that suggest possible functional impairment. The molecular background of these changes is not well understood. We hypothesize that the transcriptomic profile of the mare myometrium varies depending on the degree of endometrosis in mares.

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a significant cause of lifelong disability, with no available disease-modifying treatments to promote neuroprotection and axon regeneration after injury. Photobiomodulation (PBM) is a promising therapy which has proven effective at restoring lost function after SCI in pre-clinical models. However, the precise mechanism of action is yet to be determined.

The mitochondrial Ca uniporter is the Ca channel responsible for mitochondrial Ca uptake. It plays crucial physiological roles in regulating oxidative phosphorylation, intracellular Ca signaling, and cell death. The uniporter contains the pore-forming MCU subunit, the auxiliary EMRE protein, and the regulatory MICU1 subunit, which blocks the MCU pore under resting cellular Ca concentrations.

Fractures are common and serious skeletal injuries, and accelerating their healing while alleviating patient suffering remains a clinical challenge. Annexin A2 (ANXA2) is a widely distributed, calcium-dependent, phospholipid-binding protein involved in bone remodeling. However, its role in chondrocyte differentiation and endochondral ossification remains unclear.

Membrane contact sites (MCS) are specialized compartments found in all eukaryotic cells that are formed between membranes of different organelles that are in close proximity. MCS have important functions as they are sites of efficient transfer of molecules between neighboring organelles. Two recent articles have used the splitFAST system to mark and follow the dynamics of membrane contact sites and used the method to highlight the importance of MCS between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and lipid droplets in metabolic adaptation and MCS between the ER and mitochondria in Ca signal propagation.
