Spine apparatus modulates Ca2+ in spines through spatial localization of sources and sinks

María Hernández Mesa, Guadalupe C. García, Frédéric J. Hoerndli…·Padmini Rangamani

The paper develops a stochastic spatial model to study how SER and SA geometry, along with RyR localization, influence Ca2+ dynamics in dendritic spines and dendrites.
