The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Superoxide dismutase C affects Dictyostelium contractile vacuole biogenesis and function
Development, Growth and Differentiation, 2020 Dictyostelium cells cope with hypo‐osmotic stress with a contractile vacuole (CV) system, which consists of one or two vacuoles that cyclically charge and discharge.

An organelle K⁺ channel is required for osmoregulation in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]
, 2016 Fresh water protozoa and algae face hypotonic challenges in their living environment. Many of them employ a contractile vacuole system to uptake excessive water from the cytoplasm and expel it to the environment to achieve cellular homeostasis.
