KeywordsIcln, volume-sensitive organic osmolyte-anion channels, VSOACCollegeFamily, Home, and Social SciencesDepartmentPolitical ScienceAbstractCells respond to swelling by releasing ions to balance osmotic pressure with their surroundings. Ions travel out of cells by means of protein channels that form or open in response to increased pressure. The study of volume-sensitive organic osmolyte-anion channels (VSOAC) is relatively new.
