Journal ArticleDOI

MCMC Estimation of Markov Models for Ion Channels

TL;DR: This method, new to the authors' knowledge, detects overparameterizations and gives more accurate results than existing MCMC methods, and shows similar performance as QuB-MIL, which indicates that it also compares well with maximum likelihood estimators.
Journal ArticleDOI

A computational model of lysosome–ER Ca2+ microdomains

TL;DR: A computational model of lysosome–ER coupling was generated that incorporated a previous model of the inositol trisphosphate (IP3) receptor as the ER Ca2+ ‘amplifier’ andLysosomal leaks as the Ca2- ‘trigger’, suggesting that the microdomain [Ca2+] need not be higher than that in the cytosol for responses to occur, thus matching the relatively high affinity of IP3 receptors
Journal ArticleDOI

Calcium wave propagation by calcium-induced calcium release : an unusual excitable system

TL;DR: Goldbeter's model for calcium-induced calcium release is an excitable system of a type not previously studied in detail, and is considered a piecewise linear simplification of the model, and construct travelling pulse and periodic plane wave solutions to the simplified model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Traveling waves of calcium in a pancreatic acinar cells: model construction and bifurcation analysis

TL;DR: In this article, a model for intracellular calcium wave propagation with particular attention to pancreatic acinar cells was proposed, based on a model of the inositol trisphosphate (IP3) receptor.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Deterministic Model Predicts the Properties of Stochastic Calcium Oscillations in Airway Smooth Muscle Cells

TL;DR: Calcium dynamics can be accurately modeled using simplified models, and to obtain qualitative predictions of how oscillation frequency depends on parameters it is sufficient to use a deterministic model.
