SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS: Rengoku was admitted in the hospital due to high fever ranging from 39.0 °C – 40 ° C. He is nearly convulsing when he got to the nearest ER. Upon initial diagnosis, Rengoku has a localized infection that needs to be treated by an antibiotic and anti-pyretic medications to lower down the body temperature. Explain the role of the cellular transport mechanism in making sure that Rengoku will be going back to his normal body temperature and the effects of having high body temperature to his enzymatic activity.

Transport of biomolecules to tissues takes place through capillary walls by both convection and diffusion. Consider an endothelium in which the gaps between the cells are characterized by the following dimensions: L=1 µm long, h=200 nm high, and W=10 nm in width (the last dimension is the distance between the two cells). The fluid is at 37degC and has the same properties as physiologic saline. Let the average pressure in the capillary be 45 mm Hg and let the pressure in the tissue be 0 mm Hg (ignore osmotic effects). Consider a small solute that has a diffusion coefficient of 1x10-5 cm2/s. Does this solute pass across the endothelium by diffusion or is it primarily carried by flow?

Dr Renko studied diffusion of tracer molecules to study paracellular diffusion across an epithelial monolayer of Caco-2 cells. The tracers were fluorescently labelled dextran molecules of different molecular weight. She is screening various drugs to determine whether they affect the cells in any way. Which drugs are most likely to change paracellular diffusion? a.) Drugs that modify microvilli are the most likely to change paracellular diffusion b.) Drugs that modify gap junctions are the most likely to change paracellular diffusion c.) Drugs that modify with aquaporins are the most likely to change paracellular diffusion d.) Drugs that modify tight junctions are the most likely to change paracellular diffusion
