Calcium Fluxes in Pathologically Altered Red Cells

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Contemporary Biomedicine ((CB,volume 10))

Abstract

Calcium flux is defined as the amount of calcium ions crossing unit area of a membrane in unit time. In red blood cells with no intracellular organelles surrounded by membrane structures, calcium flux refers solely to transport through the plasma membrane, and this transport may be directed inwards (influx) or outwards (efflux). The calcium flux may be passive (i.e., electrodiffusion) or active (i.e., mediated by the calcium pump).
