Membrane Carbohydrates: Form External Glycocalyx
The term was initially applied to the polysaccharide matrix excreted by epithelial cells forming a coating on the surface of epithelial tissue Includes Glycoproteins and Glycolipids Figure 5-11: Map of cell membrane structure
15
The Glycocalyx glycocalyx — carbohydrate-rich peripheral zone of the external surface coating of the membrane in most eukaryotic cells. Description The outer surface of cells is covered with lipopolysaccharide "hairs" consisting of proteoglycans, glycoproteins and glycolipids, which are called “glycocalyx” Carbohydrate components of the glycocalyx include both compounds covalently bound to proteins or, to a lesser extent, to lipids on the cell surface, and additional glycoproteins and polysaccharides which are non-covalently attached to them. Some of the adsorbed macromolecules are components of the extracellular matrix, which makes it difficult to distinguish between such matrices and the glycocalyx with the cell membrane. Glycocalyx is considered as a protective layer on the vessel wall against pathogenic effects, a network barrier to the movement of molecules. It is assumed that the endothelial glycocalyx has a definite ultrastructure and may be connected with the cytoskeleton to serve as a mechanochemical transducer of blood flow effects (shear stress) into other processes of cell signaling.
18
Functions of the Glycocalyx
Protection: Cushions the plasma membrane and protects it from chemical injury Immunity to infection: Enables the immune system to recognize and selectively attack foreign organisms Defense against cancer: Changes in the glycocalyx of cancerous cells enable the immune system to recognize and destroy them Transplant compatibility: Forms the basis for compatibility of blood transfusions, tissue grafts, and organ transplants Cell adhesion: Binds cells together so that tissues do not fall apart Inflammation regulation: Glycocalyx coating on endothelial walls in blood vessels prevents leukocytes from rolling/binding in healthy states[4] Fertilization: Enables sperm to recognize and bind to eggs Embryonic development: Guides embryonic cells to their destinations in the body

Endocytosis Pathways Clathrin-mediated endocytosis is mediated by small (approx. 100 nm in diameter) vesicles that have a morphologically characteristic coat made up of a complex of proteins that are mainly associated with the cytosolic protein clathrin. Clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs) are found in virtually all cells and form domains of the plasma membrane termed clathrin-coated pits. Coated pits can concentrate large extracellular molecules that have different receptors responsible for the receptor-mediated endocytosis of ligands, e.g. low density lipoprotein, transferrin, growth factors, antibodies and many others. Caveolae are the most common reported non-clathrin-coated plasma membrane buds, which exist on the surface of many, but not all cell types. They consist of the cholesterol-binding protein caveolin (Vip21) with a bilayer enriched in cholesterol and glycolipids. Caveolae are small (approx. 50 nm in diameter) flask-shape pits in the membrane that resemble the shape of a cave (hence the name caveolae). They can constitute up to a third of the plasma membrane area of the cells of some tissues, being especially abundant in smooth muscle, type I pneumocytes, fibroblasts, adipocytes, and endothelial cells. Uptake of extracellular molecules is also believed to be specifically mediated via receptors in caveolae. Macropinocytosis, which usually occurs from highly ruffled regions of the plasma membrane, is the invagination of the cell membrane to form a pocket, which then pinches off into the cell to form a vesicle (0.5–5 µm in diameter) filled with a large volume of extracellular fluid and molecules within it (equivalent to ~100 CCVs). The filling of the pocket occurs in a non-specific manner. The vesicle then travels into the cytosol and fuses with other vesicles such as endosomes and lysosomes. Phagocytosis is the process by which cells bind and internalize particulate matter larger than around 0.75 µm in diameter, such as small-sized dust particles, cell debris, micro-organisms and even apoptotic cells, which only occurs in specialized cells. These processes involve the uptake of larger membrane areas than clathrin-mediated endocytosis and caveolae pathway.

Vesicles in Membrane Transport
Transcytosis: Moves some molecules and large proteins and particles via endocytosis and exocytosis across cell membrane Phagosome: The vesicle formed via internalization, in phagocytic cells. Binds and internalizes particles > 0.75 microns Phagocytes: An Actin-mediated process. Examples, immune cells Clatherin-Mediated Endocytosis Caveolae: Non-Clatherin coated but have caveolin

Distribution of Water and Solutes in the Body Compartments
About 60% of body weight is water 67% water -intracellular 33% water -extracellular 8% plasma 25% interstitial % varies slightly with sex and age Figure 5-32: Distribution of volume in the body fluid compartments

Molarity vs Molality Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution. This means that if you have a 1 M solution of some compound, evaporating one liter will cause one mole of the solute to precipitate. Molality is defined as the number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent. To make a 1 m solution, you'd take one mole of a substance and add it to 1 Kg of solvent. As a result, the final volume of a 1 m solution will be somewhat more than 1 L if the solvent is Water.
45
Molality Molalities are more convenient than molarities in experiments that involve significant temperature changes. Because the volume of a solution increases when its temperature increases, heating makes the solutions molarity go down- but the molality, which is based on masses rather than volumes, remains unchanged.
46
Osmolarity vs Osmolality
Osmolarity is distinct from molarity because it measures moles of solute particles rather than moles of solute. The distinction arises because some compounds can dissociate in solution, whereas others cannot Plasma osmolality is affected by changes in water content. In comparison, the plasma osmolarity is slightly less than osmolality, because the total plasma weight (the divisor used for osmolality) excludes the weight of any solutes, while the total plasma volume (used for osmolarity) includes solute content. Otherwise, one liter of plasma would be equivalent to one kilogram of plasma, and plasma osmolarity and plasma osmolality would be equal. However, at low concentrations, the weight of the solute is negligible compared to the weight of the solvent, and osmolarity and osmolality are very similar.
