Determination of Extracellular Space in Amphibian Muscle [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe Journal of General Physiology, 1967
The volumes of distribution of inulin and dextran in the sartorius, stomach, and cardiac muscle of the frog agree rather closely. That these spaces represent the volume of extracellular water is supported by the observation that efflux of sucrose can be divided into a fast and a slow phase and that the fast-moving fraction corresponds closely with ...

The Extracellular Space of Voluntary Muscle Tissues [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe Journal of General Physiology, 1967
The volume occupied by the extracellular space has been investigated in six types of voluntary muscles: sartorius (frog), semitendinosus (frog), tibialis anticus longus (frog), iliofibularis (frog), rectus abdominis (frog), and diaphragm (rat). With the aid of four types of probe material, three of which are conventionally employed (inulin, sorbitol ...

Protein Dynamics in the Plant Extracellular Space [PDF]

open access: yesProteomes, 2016
The extracellular space (ECS or apoplast) is the plant cell compartment external to the plasma membrane, which includes the cell walls, the intercellular space and the apoplastic fluid (APF).

Diffusion in Brain Extracellular Space [PDF]

open access: greenPhysiological Reviews, 2008
Diffusion in the extracellular space (ECS) of the brain is constrained by the volume fraction and the tortuosity and a modified diffusion equation represents the transport behavior of many molecules in the brain. Deviations from the equation reveal loss of molecules across the blood-brain barrier, through cellular uptake, binding, or other mechanisms ...

Current Techniques for Investigating the Brain Extracellular Space [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
The brain extracellular space (ECS) is a continuous reticular compartment that lies between the cells of the brain. It is vast in extent relative to its resident cells, yet, at the same time the nano- to micrometer dimensions of its channels and ...

Local diffusion in the extracellular space of the brain

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2023
The brain extracellular space (ECS) is a vast interstitial reticulum of extreme morphological complexity, composed of narrow gaps separated by local expansions, enabling interconnected highways between neural cells.

Extracellular space in some isolated tissues [PDF]

open access: greenThe Journal of Physiology, 1974
1. The spaces occupied by isotopically labelled inulin, polyethylene glycol, mol. wt. 4000 (PEG 4000), polyethylene glycol, mol. wt. 1000 (PEG 1000) and sucrose in metabolizing mammalian kidney and liver slices and in toad bladder epithelial cell preparations incubated in vitro have been examined.2.

Diffusion in the extracellular space in brain and tumors [PDF]

open access: greenPhysical Biology, 2013
Diffusion of solutes and macromolecules in the extracellular space (ECS) in brain is important for non-synaptic intercellular communication, extracellular ionic buffering, and delivery of drugs and metabolites. Diffusion in tumor ECS is important for delivery of anti-tumor drugs.

An Isotonic Model of Neuron Swelling Based on Co-Transport of Salt and Water

open access: yesMembranes, 2023
Neurons spend most of their energy building ion gradients across the cell membrane. During energy deprivation the neurons swell, and the concomitant mixing of their ions is commonly assumed to lead toward a Donnan equilibrium, at which the concentration ...
