Examples of pinocytosis
pinocytosis
Pinocytosis is the same process, except the substances being ingested are in the fluid form.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Their half-lives depend on their ability to resist degradation from pinocytosis by epithelial cells.
From the en.wikipedia.org
The researchers developed a way to co-opt pinocytosis, the process by which cells drink in small amounts of surrounding fluid.
From the sciencedaily.com
The cell membrane pinches in a process known as pinocytosis and allows entry of the virus into the cell by way of an endosome.
From the en.wikipedia.org
- Process by which certain cells can engulf and incorporate droplets of fluid
- In cellular biology, pinocytosis ("cell-drinking", "bulk-phase pinocytosis", "non-specific, non-adsorptive pinocytosis", "fluid endocytosis") is a form of endocytosis in which small particles are brought into the cell suspended within small vesicles which subsequently fuse with lysosomes to ...
- Ingestion of liquid or very small particles by vesicle formation in a cell.
- A process of ingesting material by enclosing it with a membrane. The resulting structure is usually too small to be seen with the light microscope and is mostly suitable for the ingestion of fluid or mucus.
- In eukaryotes, phagocytosis of soluble molecules.
- The process by which a living cell engulfs a minute droplet of liquid.
- A type of endocytosis in which the cell ingests extracellular fluid and its dissolved solutes.
- The act of drinking; refers to the ingestion of soluble matter.
- Cell drinking; invagination of the cell membrane forming narrow channels that pinch off into vacuoles. This allows for cellular intake of extracellular fluid and dissolved molecules.
