The concentration of free calcium ions (Ca 2Ο© ) in the cytosol is precisely regulated and can be rapidly increased in response to various types of stimuli. Since Ca 2Ο© can be used to control different processes in the same cell, the spatial organization of cytosolic Ca 2Ο© signals is of considerable
Living cells often generate signals spontaneously in the absence of external stimuli. Those signals play an important role in their tactic behaviors. This paper presents a theoretical treatment on the mechanism of spontaneous signal generation. The mechanism consists of two steps: (1) production of
