Intracellular Ca regulation plays a pivotal role in endothelial biology as well as during endothelial restoration processes. Interest in honey utilization in wound approaches is rising in recent years. In order to evaluate the positive effects of buckwheat honey on endothelial responses, we utilized an immortalized endothelial cell line to evaluate cellular responses upon honey exposure, with particular interest in Ca signaling involvement. The results highlight the positive effects of buckwheat honey on endothelial cells' responses and the central role played by Ca signaling as an encouraging target for more efficacious clinical treatments.
