Figure Lengend Snippet: Schematic diagram illustrating the role of ER-to-cytosol Ca 2+ in regulation of survival and death of NSCs in insulin withdrawal model. Presence of insulin constitutively ensures proper distribution of intracellular Ca 2+ which maintains homeostasis of HCN cells. Inactivation of the pro-survival insulin signaling pathway by insulin withdrawal leads to increased expression and activation of RyR3 which subsequently discharge Ca 2+ from the ER, the major intracellular Ca 2+ store. Increase in cytosolic Ca 2+ subsequently triggers a signaling cascade that induces ACD in HCN cells.
