AN understanding of the mechanisms of oxygen transport in mammals requires a knowledge of the rate of oxygen consumption (which represents the quantity of oxygen transported), the arteriovenous oxygen ...

IN the isolated frog skin, it was found by Zerahn 1 and by Leaf and Renshaw 2 that the amount of sodium actively transported had a fixed relationship to the net oxygen consumption (sodium/net oxygen ...

Researchers have discovered crucial information about the protein transporter of oxygen, which opens up the possibility to optimize its function by introducing modifications. The transport of oxygen ...

Researchers in the U.S. have shown that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) may alter key protein structures on red blood cells and compromise the transport and delivery of ...

New findings on how red blood cells deliver oxygen from the lungs to tissue in may mean it is time to rewrite the text books on how the respiratory cycle works. Share on Pinterest Researchers say the ...

Researchers have made use of cryo-electron microscopy to show the exact process of enzyme activation. Pandinus imperator, the emperor scorpion, is not only popular as a pet, but is also of interest ...

Much more oxygen than previously thought is being transported into deep layers of the ocean through a ‘trap door’ off Canada’s Atlantic coast, that some researchers say could be closing as a result of ...
