[The importance of calcium ions in the body].
The review on the calcium ion is divided into two parts. One part contains so-called basic physiological data on calcium: distribution on body fluids, tissues, its bond with proteins, daily turnover and calcium requirement in different stages of life, its absorption and excretion. In the second, special, part the author presents recent findings on calcium at a molecular and cellular level: calcium as the so-called primary messenger, types of intracellular communications, relationship with G-proteins, relationship of calcium with its regulators (vitamins D, parathormone, calmodulin).
