An Intact Kidney Slice Model to Investigate Vasa Recta Properties and Function in situ [PDF]
, 2012 Background: Medullary blood flow is via vasa recta capillaries, which possess contractile pericytes. In vitro studies using isolated descending vasa recta show that pericytes can constrict/dilate descending vasa recta when vasoactive substances are ...

Randomised double blind study of hypotonic oral rehydration solution in diarrhoea [PDF]
Archives of Disease in Childhood, 1997 A hypotonic (osmolality 224 mmol/l, sodium 60 mmol/l) oral rehydration solution (ORS) was compared with an isotonic high glucose ORS (osmolality 304 mmol/l, sodium 60 mmol/l) in children with acute diarrhoea in a randomised double blind study. The stool output and hence the mean consumption of ORS for maintenance hydration was less (p = 0.036) in ...

KCNK5 is Functionally Down-Regulated Upon Long-Term Hypotonicity in Ehrlich Ascites Tumor Cells [PDF]
, 2013 Background/Aims: Regulatory volume decrease (RVD) in response to acute cell swelling is well described and KCNK5 (also known as TASK-2 or K2P5.1) has been shown to be the volume sensitive K+ channel in Ehrlich cells.

Excitation of Squid Giant Axons in Hypotonic and Hypertonic Solutions
The Japanese Journal of Physiology, 1979 Excitability of intracellularly perfused squid giant axons was maintained in hypotonic solutions (down to 300 mOSM) and in hypertonic solutions (up to about 10 OSM), when osmolalities of internal and external solutions were adjusted to be equal with glycerol, glucose, or sucrose.

An examination of walking track analysis footprints of right-side unoperated limbs in rats prior to and following peripheral nerve injury and PEG fusion repair [PDF]
, 2018 Peripheral nerve injury can result in long-lasting functional deficits in humans due to mammals’ limited axon regenerative capacity. PEG fusion is a defined technique that fuses injured axons, resulting in morphological and electrophysiological ...

Swelling-activated Ca2+ channels trigger Ca2+ signals in Merkel cells.
PLoS ONE, 2008 Merkel cell-neurite complexes are highly sensitive touch receptors comprising epidermal Merkel cells and sensory afferents. Based on morphological and molecular studies, Merkel cells are proposed to be mechanosensory cells that signal afferents via ...
