Importantly, SPCA2-mediated Ca2+ signaling is uncoupled from its conventional role of Ca2+-ATPase and independent of store-operated Ca2+ signaling pathway. SPCA2-induced store-independent Ca2+ entry (SICE) plays essential roles in many important physiological processes, while unbalanced SICE leads to enhanced cell proliferation and tumorigenesis.
