The Mitochondria and Calcium Signalling Part 1

In this video we look at the effect of activating the Gq pathway and calcium release from intracellular stores on the mitochondria and respiration.

Given how difficult it is to achieve huge 1mM concentration locally to activate the mitochondria MCU channels to increase respiration, the ER calcium storage sufficiency would appear to be the most vulnerable location to fail. One known ER calcium storage problem outcome: heart disease (via cell atoptosis). Imo, plant diets are heart healthy because they contain more (not less) calcium (and cofactors) than meat.
