    maintain their unique lipid compositions must be specific. The plasma membrane, endosomes and lysosomes rely completely on lipid transport from the organelles which actively synthesize lipids. Lipid transport can occur by various mechanisms (Fig.1a). First, lateral diffusion of lipids through membrane continuities, such as those that exist between the ER and the outer and inner nuclear membrane. Next, vesicular transport to the Golgi, the plasma membrane and endosomes, which is the major…

    Hypovolemia is a state in which the blood volume, specifically the volume of the blood plasma, is decreased. This can also lead to an imbalance in the volume contraction, or a decrease in the volume of body fluid, which includes osmolytes. Hypervolemia is often linked with sodium depletion, and is distinctly different from dehydration. Causes include loss of blood, loss of plasma, and loss of osmolytes via diarrhea and vomiting. It is recognized by tachycardia and diminished blood pressure, as…

    homeostasis and will require compensation from the body through the renal system. The consumption of water based on an individual’s weight will cause a shift in the plasma volume of the individual fifteen to twenty minutes following consumption. At this stage the osmolarity of the individual will drop since the amount of water present in the plasma has increased, this will also lead to an increase in blood pressure of the individual. Due to the shift in osmolarity in the body the osmorecptors…

    they had SOD1 G93A gene mutation they discovered the mice developed neurodegeneration of spinal motor neurons and motor deficits which when compared to ALS is very alike. One effective biomarker is the use of plasma amino acid analysis since mice with SOD G93A have a change in their plasma amino acids. When mice without SOD1 G93A were studied along with mice who had the mutation they noticed a change in the mutant mice’s amino acid concentrations specifically: cysteine,…

    barium oxide, and strontium. It becomes plasma! You might think those materials floating in the atmosphere are industrial pollution. That’s a mistake. The material is intentionally placed for a precise effect. These are ionized metallic salts injected into the atmosphere. A vast quantity they have achieved over time by carrying it up there, mostly by fully automated large aircraft. They have manufactured-plasma! Do you understand?” “No—I don't get it at all.” “Plasma is the fourth fundamental…
