The need for further and well-controlled studies is evident to clarify these observations. 2 Calcium at the center of the obesity problem. (A) Low levels of Ca2+ intake lead to increased circulating calcitriol, which induces increases in intracellular Ca2+ in adipocytes. In the cytosol, Ca2+ has an inhibitory effect on lipolysis and promotes lipogenesis, thus promoting lipid accumulation. (B) The calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) is a complex regulator of signaling cascades. Its activation depends on extracellular Ca2+ and can be modulated by multiple allosteric factors.
Extracellular Ca2+ entry to the cytoplasm is regulated by plasma membrane channels such as the dihydropyridine receptor (DHPR) (voltage-gated); it can then extrude back out of cells via ATPase pumps such as plasma membrane Ca2+-ATPase (PMCA). The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) acts as an intracellular Ca2+ reservoir by accumulation via pumps [sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA)]. Upon stimulation, the ER can release Ca2+ back into the cytoplasm through channels such as inositol triphosphate receptor (IP3R) and ryanodine receptor (RyR).
