Regulation of Cellular Volume

  • Chapter
Physiology of Membrane Disorders

Abstract

With some 55 to 60% of body weight attributable to water and approximately two-thirds of this within cells, the constancy of body weight is testimonial to the precision with which cells regulate their water content. Understanding of how this is accomplished is still, however, controversial, and the subject of several recent reviews.(1–5)
