Cell Membranes
• 1 Classical nerve cell– Na+
outside =142mEq/L 1gr/dL=2.5mEq/L
– Na+inside = 14 mEq/L
– K+outside =4 mEq/L
– K+inside = 140 mEq/L
– Cl-outside = 103 mEq/L
– Cl-inside = 4mEq/L
– Enzymes also negative on the inside

Active Pumps to Maintain Concentration Differences
• 1. Na+ , K+ pumps• 2. Many other pumps for 80 substances?– Ca2+,Fe,I, Cl, Urate,sugars and amino acids
• 3. All require energy. • 4. These all require protein channels.• 5. Co-transport of molecules say Na +Glucose
into the cell.

• 1Trigered by• influx of Na+ as• summed by the • inputs from the • dendrites at • the cell body
• 2. Terminated by• Outflow of K+

A Different Approach to Cell Structure and the Function of Membranes.
• 1. Reference • Cells, Gels and the Engines of Life by Gerald H.
Pollack Published by Ebner and Sons Seattle Washington. 2001
• 2 On the Web Human Physiology - Cell structure and function for some good pictures and standard model with channels for Na , K

Outline of Material
• 1. Problems with the current model for cells• 2. Some properties water , H2O, Solutes , Ions
and cell potential• 3. Properties of Gels and Cytoplasm ,• 4. Phase Transitions a Mechanism for Action• 5. Action potentials.

Some Problems.
• 1. Not enough energy for all the pumps.• 2. Need 50 or more types of channels and
pumps• 2. the concentration ratios and voltages are
still there when the membrane is removed. • 3. You can still get an action potential to
propagate along a nerve cell with no Na or K if you have enough Ca.
