Poroelastic osmoregulation of living cell volume. [PDF]
Cells maintain their volume through fine intracellular osmolarity regulation. Osmotic challenges drive fluid into or out of cells causing swelling or shrinkage, respectively.

The increase in cell volume and nuclear number of the koji-fungus Aspergillus oryzae contributes to its high enzyme productivity [PDF]
While the ratio of nuclei to cell volume is well regulated, it remains largely unexplored in multinucleate organisms. The koji-fungus Aspergillus oryzae, traditionally used in Japanese brewing and fermentation for over a thousand years, is now widely ...

This mini-review describes the history of cell volume conferences with the emphasis on the research of cell volume sensitive peptide exocytosis initiated by Prof. Monte A. Greer as well as the recent achievements on the study of the mechanisms of cell volume adjustment and their implications in the regulation of metabolism, gene expression, cell ...

Cell Volume Regulation Mechanisms in Differentiated Astrocytes [PDF]
The ability of astrocytes to control extracellular volume homeostasis is critical for brain function and pathology. Uncovering the mechanisms of cell volume regulation by astrocytes will be important for identifying novel therapeutic targets for ...

Micropatterning of single endothelial cell shape reveals a tight coupling between nuclear volume in G1 and proliferation [PDF]
Shape-dependent local differentials in cell proliferation are considered to be a major driving mechanism of structuring processes in vivo, such as embryogenesis, wound healing, and angiogenesis.

An Improved Cell Volume Analyzer [PDF]
A cell volume sensing instrument has been built which employs the principle used in the Coulter counter in which a cell changes the impedance of a narrow orifice as it passes through the orifice. An improved transducer utilizes a coaxial flow of the cell suspension inside a sheath of cell-free solution through the orifice, thereby avoiding some ...

Cell Volume Regulation in the Epidermis
In order to cope with external stressors such as changes in humidity and temperature or irritating substances, the epidermis as the outermost skin layer forms a continuously renewing and ideally intact protective barrier. Under certain circumstances, this barrier can be impaired and epidermal cells have to counteract cell swelling or shrinkage induced ...

Chick cardiomyocytes, when submitted to hyposmotic swelling, exhibit a partial regulatory volume decrease (RVD). A Ca2+ influx by stretch-activated channels signals a taurine efflux and the RVD at 37°C.

Mechanisms of cell volume regulation and possible nature of the cell volume sensor
In animal organisms, cell volume undergoes dynamic changes in many physiological and pathological processes. To protect themselves against lysis and apoptosis and to maintain an optimal concentration of intracellular enzymes and metabolites, most animal cells actively regulate their volume.
