The ability to regulate cell volume in the face of osmotic challenge is one of the fundamental of cellular homeostatic mechanisms. This work describes the key aspects of cell volume control. It is organized around concepts and cellular/molecular processes rather than around mechanisms of volume regulation in specific cell types.
The ability to regulate cell volume in the face of osmotic challenge is one of the most fundamental of cellular homeostatic mechanisms. "Cellular and Molecular Physiology of Cell Volume Regulation" is an integrated collection of articles describing key aspects of cell volume control. This book has been organized around concepts and cellular/molecular processes rather than around mechanisms of volume regulation in specific cell types in order to make it more accessible to a multidisciplinary audience of students, instructors, and researchers.
