A mechano-osmotic feedback couples cell volume to the rate of cell deformation [PDF]
Mechanics has been a central focus of physical biology in the past decade. In comparison, how cells manage their size is less understood. Here, we show that a parameter central to both the physics and the physiology of the cell, its volume, depends on a ...

As viruses regulate prokaryotic abundance and the carbon cycle by infecting and lysing their prokaryotic hosts, the volume of infected prokaryotes is an important parameter for understanding the impact of viruses on aquatic environments.

Physical basis of the cell size scaling laws
Cellular growth is the result of passive physical constraints and active biological processes. Their interplay leads to the appearance of robust and ubiquitous scaling laws relating linearly cell size, dry mass, and nuclear size.

Current and previous studies have extensively studied the physiological and ecological consequences of genome size (GS) on plants because of the limiting effect of GS on cell size.

Dynamics of cell mass and size control in multicellular systems and the human body
Cellular processes, in particular homeostasis and growth, require an intricate and complex exchange of matter between a cell and its surroundings. Yet experimental difficulties have prevented a detailed description of the dynamics of a cell’s mass and ...

Ions, cell volume, and apoptosis [PDF]
Programmed cell death culminating in apoptosis is responsible for normal tissue homeostasis and has increasingly been implicated in mediating pathological cell loss (1–3). Apoptosis is accompanied by characteristic morphological changes, including cell body and nuclear condensation, chromatin margination, and the formation of membrane-bound remnants ...

Cell AT-Models for Digital Volumes [PDF]
In [4], given a binary 26-adjacency voxel-based digital volume V, the homological information (that related to n-dimensional holes: connected components, ”tunnels” and cavities) is extracted from a linear map (called homology gradient vector field) acting on a polyhedral cell complex P(V) homologically equivalent to V.

Triggering of Suicidal Erythrocyte Death by Celecoxib
The selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor celecoxib triggers apoptosis of tumor cells and is thus effective against malignancy. The substance is at least partially effective through mitochondrial depolarization.
