Water crossing membranes

Crossing Membranes

space should have been devoted to describing the ex-age of cell biology. The book does not include sections periments that led to this information. For example, a on immunology/immunity, cancer, or development, section in Chapter 46 (box 46-1) contains a synopsis leaving these topics for more specialized texts, which I of key experiments in cell cycle research that I found personally find appro...

Shallow water modeling of Antarctic Bottom Water Crossing the Equator

[1] The dynamics of abyssal equator-crossing flows are examined by studying simplified models of the flow in the equatorial region in the context of reduced-gravity shallow water theory. A simple ‘‘frictional geostrophic’’ model for one-layer cross-equatorial flow is described, in which geostrophy is replaced at the equator by frictional flow down the pressure gradient. This model is compared v...

Electrospun membranes: Next generation membranes for desalination and water/wastewater treatment

Crossing interaction of adrenergic, cholinergic, histaminergic and opioidergic systems on water intake in adult male rats

Several lines of evidence have indicated that many nuclei in the brain including preoptic nucleus, AV3V, subfornical organ, septal area and lateral hypothalamus are the targets of efferents from chemo-sensitive and pressure-sensitive systems. These areas may concern with regulation of fluid homeostasis. In the present study, intracerebroventricular injections were carried out in all experiments...

Aquaporins and Water Permeability of Plant Membranes.

The mechanisms of plant membrane water permeability have remained elusive until the recent discovery in both vacuolar and plasma membranes of a class of water channel proteins named aquaporins. Similar to their animal counterparts, plant aquaporins have six membrane-spanning domains and belong to the MIP superfamily of transmembrane channel proteins. Their very high efficiency and selectivity i...
