IgA is produced in large quantities at mucosal surfaces by IgA+ plasma cells (PC), protecting the host from pathogens, and restricting commensal access to the subepithelium. It is becoming increasingly appreciated that IgA+ PC are not constrained to mucosal barrier sites. Rather, IgA+ PC may ...
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...
Where are DNA and RNA located in the cell? Where is DNA found inside a cell? Where in a cell would you find DNA? Where does transcription and translation occur in prokaryotic cells? Where is DNA found in the cell? Where does DNA replication start? Is it the same for prokaryotes and eu...
Striated muscles fibres are long or elongated,unbranched,have many nuclei. Each muscle cell is enclosed in a thin but distinct plasma membrane called sarcolemma. These muscles are present inlimbs,face,neck,tongue,pharynx,diaphragm. It help in smooth contraction and movement. Are striated muscles fo...

Where does the Krebs cycle take place? a. Mitochondria b. Golgi apparatus c. Nucleus d. Cytosol e. Plasma membrane Where do the glycolysis citric acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation located in the ...
CXCR4 is generally regarded as a plasma membrane receptor where it transmits signals that support transformation, progression and eventual metastasis. Due to...Erika Caldwell
“Although more than 99 % of the total body magnesium is located in the intracellular space, intracellular magnesium measurement is not included in daily basis in the clinical laboratory, being measured in serum and/or plasma. Hypomagnesemia – considered when serum magnesium concentration is below ...
The salt water is a hypertonic solution, thus water will move out of the cell. As water moves out of the cells there is a loss of turgor pressure and the plasma membranes detach from the cell walls as the cells shrink. ... Elodea normally lives in fresh water. ...
