Efflux

Bacterial efflux pumps are membrane bound proteins that pump toxins out of bacterial cells.

One is efflux pumping.

Amphetamine is also known to increase intracellular calcium, an effect which is associated with DAT phosphorylation through a CAMKIIα -dependent pathway, in turn producing dopamine efflux.

In cardiac muscle, sodium influx commences an action potential, but during potassium efflux, the cardiac myocyte experiences calcium influx, prolonging the action potential and creating a plateau phase of dynamic equilibrium.

Nonetheless, in most of the literature the stated place of the click is the anterior articulation (called the release or influx), whereas the manner is ascribed to the posterior articulation (called the accompaniment or efflux).

Normally, the sodium channels close very rapidly, but the depolarization of the membrane potential causes the opening (activation) of potassium channels and potassium-efflux, which results in repolarization of the membrane potential.

Research on p-glycoprotein and other such chemotherapy efflux pumps is currently ongoing.

Results of Klarica et al. suggest that efflux transport at the capillary endothelium is much more important for brain homeostasis than the removal of potential toxic brain metabolites by CSF "circulation".

Some components of membranes play a key role in medicine, such as the efflux pumps that pump drugs out of a cell.

Two other types of acquired resistance rarely seen include the production of drug-inactivating enzymes (esterases or kinases), as well as the production of active ATP-dependent efflux proteins that transport the drug outside of the cell.
