PROF: MIRZA IBRIIMOVI, PHD STUDENT: LAMIJA IKALO SSST, 2016/17 Objectives 1. To learn the basic principles of the most important type of passive transport- diffusion 2. Distinguish simple and facilitated diffusion 3. Gating of channels and short review 4. Differences between channels and pumps 5. The Nernst potential How do cells communicate? 1. EXCHANGE BETWEEN BODY FLUIDS a) ICF(2/3 of total body water) b) ECF (1/3 of TBW) : Intravascular (1/4), interstitial ( 3/4) and transcellular 2% 2. CELL SIGNALING a) ENDOCRINE b) PARACRINE c) SYNAPTIC d) CONTACT-DEPENDENT Transport through the cell membrane: diffusion DEFINITION: The passive movement of materials down their concentration gradient. It takes place in an open system or across a permeable partition Two types of proteins involved: carriers and channels a) simple diffusion Only small, relativelyhydrophobic molecules can pass through the interstices of lipid bilayer, which is NONSELECTIVE process Polar, but uncharged (H2O and ethanol) use CHANNEL PROTEINS Channels simply form open pores in the membrane for small molecules, water and IONS of the appropriate size and charge. They create a water-filled passageway connecting ECF and ICF and are commonly found at GAP JUNCTIONS Not to confuse with facilitated diffusion. Channels Pumps! Can be gated and non-gated Gating of protein channels DEFINITION OF A GATE: Regulated opening of the pore, controlling ion permeability in response to a stimulus. Ligand-gated, mechanically gated and voltage-gated 1. LIGAND-GATED: Open in the presence of some hormonal substances, INTRA- or extracellular Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor: when acetylcholine is released from the neuronal vesicle, it binds to the channel, the channel opens and sodium can enter into the skeletal muscle cells. 2. MECHANOSENSITIVE: found in smooth muscles cells of blood vessels, 2. MECHANOSENSITIVE: Found in smooth muscle cells of blood vessels (when they stretch, Ca2+ can enter causing contraction), Panician corpuscles in skin, hair cells in vestibular system... 3.VOLTAGE-GATED CHANNELS: open whenever there is a change in membrane potential The most important are Na+, K+, and Ca2+ channels Voltage-gated Na+ and K+ channels initiate and propagate action potentials in neurons and other excitable cells, causing depolarization of the membrane in response to a stimulus. Both ions go down their conc. gradient Aquaporins Studied and discovered by Peter Agre in mid 80s Agre won Nobel Prize in 2003 13 different types in human body Can not permit protons Act like always-open channels, but in plants that is not always the case Peter agres experiment with cells containing or lacking aquaporin, immersed in water (hypotonic solution) * Mercury (Hg) ions prevent cells from taking up and releasing water, just as if there were no channels b) facilitated diffusion
Requires protein mediators-carriers which
make it SELECTIVE Lipid-insoluble, polar and charged molecules such as carbohydrates, amino acids, nucleosides, and ions Carriers transport sugars, amino acids, and nucleosides across the plasma membranes of most cells (glucose transporter). Provide NO direct communication between ECF and ICF Can be co-transporters Found in active transport Channels vs transporters Pumps vs channels Factors that affect diffusion rate a) Direct proportionality 1. Permeability of the cell membrane 2. Temperature 3. Concentration gradient or electrical gradient of the substance across the cell membrane 4. Solubility of the Substance * There is only A FINITE NUMBER of channels for each substance b) Inverse proportionality 5. Thickness of the cell membrane 6. Size of the molecules 7. Size of the ions 8. Charge of the Ions Nernst potential Nernst potential Describes the relation of diffusion potential to the ion concentration difference across a membrane for each individual ion Conc. Of K+: 5 mM outside and 140 mM inside ---->The equilibrium potential EK + = 84 mV Conc of Na+: 12 mM inside and 140 mM outside ---->The equilibrium potential ENa+ +66 mV THANKS FOR LISTENING!
