ATP-evoked intracellular Ca2+ transients shape the ionic permeability of human microglia from epileptic temporal cortex

Abstract Background Intracellular Ca2+ modulates several microglial activities, such as proliferation, migration, phagocytosis, and inflammatory mediator secretion. Extracellular ATP, the levels of which significantly change during epileptic seizures, activates specific receptors leading to an incre...
