Salt is getting under our skin ∗ Ton
Traditionally, the Na+ cation is thought to be largely restricted to the extracellular compartment, while K+ is stored intracellularly. This balance is maintained by the activity of the Na/K-ATPase sodium pump in the cell membrane. As Na+ and its accompanying anions are the principal extracellular osmoles, extracellular accumulation of Na+ inevitably also leads to fluid retention and expansion ...
متن کاملValerie Horsley: Getting under the skin
E pidermal stem cells in mammalian skin can develop primarily along three alternative paths, differentiating into hair follicles, sebaceous glands, or the interfollicular epidermis.

Cutaneous drug reactions can range from those that are common, mild nuisances to those that are rare, severe, and life-threatening. Medications should be considered part of a d...
متن کاملGetting under the skin: autonomous implantation of squid spermatophores.
Squid spermatophores are complex structures that store sperm and, when transferred to the female, evert into spermatangia. Some deep-sea squid implant spermatangia into unmodified tissue of the female. Several hypotheses have been proposed to explain this peculiar implantation process. Here, through on board observation of freshly caught deep-sea squid (Moroteuthis ingens), we show for the firs...
