Carbohydrates are macromolecules made of simple sugars. Carbohydrates have several functions inside cells including cell signaling, adhesion, and energy production. Answer and Explanation:1 Carbohydrates are found (a) on the outer side of the plasma membrane, (b) in the endoplasmic reticulum and the...
Where do vital centers are located? Where is the greater omentum located? Where do the T-lymphocytes mature? Where is the Duct of Wirsung located? State what are the 3 principal parts of the cells. Where is the thalamus located and what is its role? What role do plasma cells play? Whe...
Water transport across cell membranes occurs bydiffusion and osmosis. ... The two main pathways for plasma-membrane water transport are the lipid bilayer and water-selective pores (aquaporins). Aquaporins are a large family of water pores; some isoforms are water-selective whereas others are permea...
Some glycoproteins can be found in plasma. Good examples of these are mucopolysaccharides, albumin, embryo globulin, and mucoproteins among others. Generally, these glycoproteins are characterized by galactose and mannose in the oligosaccharide side chain. Different types of plasma glycoproteins serve var...

Renin isa hormonesecreted by the juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney; it interacts with a plasma protein substrate to produce a decapeptide prohormone angiotensin I. Where are renal baroreceptors located? Baroreceptors (or archaically, pressoreceptors) are sensors locatedin the carotid sinus (at the...
In human lymphocytes, great amounts of melatonin have been found, with values up to five times greater than the values of plasma concentrations at night [66,67]. In these cells, local melatonin production has been related to the intra-, auto-, and paracrine regulation ...
Although there are numerous clinical trials underway, few have reached phase 3 or 4. We opine that the future of pancreatic cancer research may reside in further characterizing the “omics” of PDAC, including a better understanding of the tumor microenvironment and its relation with tumor cells,...
