Asymmetry of Membrane Functions in Transporting Cells

  • Conference paper
Renal Transport of Organic Substances

Part of the book series: Proceedings in Life Sciences ((LIFE SCIENCES))

Abstract

The necessity for all cells to regulate solute transfer across their limiting membranes arises from the requirements for maintaining internal composition, for extracting nutrients from the surrounding medium, and for excreting metabolic end products. In addition, as cells become organized into structures of greater complexity, they must assume progressively more specialized functions. The function to be considered here is that of transport across epithelial cell layers.
