Regulation of extracellular calcium sensing in rat osteoclasts by femtomolar calcitonin concentrations.
Certain eukaryotic cells can sense changes in their extracellular Ca2+ concentration through molecular structures termed Ca(2+)-sensing receptors (CaRs). We have shown recently that in the bone-resorbing osteoclast, a unique cell surface-expressed ryanodine receptor (RyR), functions as the CaR. The...
