Definition of 'Extracellular Space'

Interstitial space between cells, occupied by INTERSTITIAL FLUID as well as amorphous and fibrous substances. For organisms with a CELL WALL, the extracellular space includes everything outside of the CELL MEMBRANE including the PERIPLASM and the cell wall.

Extracellular ATP inhibits transport in medullary thick ascending limbs: role of P2X receptors.

24 Aug 2009 Absorption of NaCl by the thick ascending limb (TAL) involves active transport and therefore depends on oxidative phosphorylation. Extracellular ATP has pleiotropic effects, including both stimulation and inhibition of transport and inhibition of ... Read more...


Optimal tuning of bacterial sensing potential.

5 Jul 2009 Through production and sensing of small signal molecules, quorum sensing (QS) enables bacteria to detect changes in their density and regulate their functions accordingly. QS systems are tremendously diverse in terms of their specific sensory ... Read more...


One-to-one neuron-electrode interfacing.

16 Jun 2009 The question of neuronal network development and organization is a principle one, which is closely related to aspects of neuronal and network form-function interactions. In-vitro two-dimensional neuronal cultures have proved to be an attractive and ... Read more...
