The exocytosis of insulin-containing granules from pancreatic beta-cells is tightly regulated by changes in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i). We investigated the role of the sarcoendoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) pump, Na+/Ca2+ exchanger, and plasma membrane Ca2+-ATPase pump in the Ca2+ dynamics
