- Calcium-induced calcium release - Calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) is a mechanism of calcium release from muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum that was proposed in the 1970s. Originally proposed for skeletal muscle, subsequent research has revealed that it is actually the predominant mechanism in cardiac muscle.
- Elemental calcium - Elemental calcium is a term that is in common use in the context of dietary supplements. Calcium is an element and is a metal, so it is reasonable to expect "elemental calcium" to refer to pure calcium metal.
- Calcium alpha-ketoglutarate - Calcium-alpha-ketoglutarate C5H4CaO5•H2O Is a mineral Calcium in a special form to help normalize concentrations of ordinary calcium in the body. Calcium-alpha-ketoglutarate eliminates excess Phosphate in the blood by binding to it and passed into waste.
- Calcium-sensing receptor - The calcium-sensing receptor is a G-protein coupled receptor which senses extracellular levels of calcium ion. In the parathyroid gland, the calcium-sensing receptor controls calcium homeostasis by regulating the release of parathyroid hormone.
- Sodium-calcium exchanger - The sodium-calcium exchanger (often denoted Na+/Ca2+ exchanger, NCX, or exchange protein) is an antiporter membrane protein which removes calcium from cells. It uses the energy that is stored in the electrochemical gradient of sodium (Na+) by allowing Na+ to flow down its gradient across the plasma membrane in exchange for the countertransport of calcium ions (Ca2+).
