IP3Rs are intracellular Ca2+ release channels which are gated by IP3 and Ca2+ itself.The interactions between IP3Rs allow Ca2+ to function as local or global signals.The local Ca2+ signals (blip and puff) can not only serve as fundamental and building blocks for the global Ca2+ signals but also provide specific physiological functions [1].
