Different ion transport hypotheses tested in this study and their simulation results (Hohn and Merico 2015). (H1) transcellular ion transport only, (H2) paracellular ion transport only, (H3) proton flux hypothesis, and (H4) combination of transcellular and paracellular ion transport. The upper panels visualize the conceptual models of the different transport hypotheses (H1–H4). Ca2+ is transported into the cell through the Ca2+-channel, whereas it is transported into the calcifying fluid from the cell by the Ca-ATPase pump
