  2. Plasma cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_cell

    Instead, plasma cells are identified through flow cytometry by their additional expression of CD138, CD78, and the Interleukin-6 receptor. In humans, CD27 is a good marker for plasma cells; naïve B cells are CD27−, memory B-cells are CD27+ and plasma cells are CD27++. [5] The surface antigen CD138 (syndecan-1) is expressed at high levels. [6]

  3. Blood plasma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_plasma

    Blood plasma is a light amber-colored liquid component of blood in which blood cells are absent, but which contains proteins and other constituents of whole blood in suspension. It makes up about 55% of the body's total blood volume. [1] It is the intravascular part of extracellular fluid (all body fluid outside cells).

  4. Extracellular fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extracellular_fluid

    The interstitial fluid and plasma make up about 97% of the ECF, and a small percentage of this is lymph. Interstitial fluid is the body fluid between blood vessels and cells, [8] containing nutrients from capillaries by diffusion and holding waste products discharged by cells due to metabolism.

  5. Fluid compartments - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_compartments

    The transcellular fluid is the portion of total body fluid that is formed by the secretory activity of epithelial cells and is contained within specialized epithelial-lined compartments. Fluid does not normally collect in larger amounts in these spaces, [6] [7] and any significant fluid collection in these spaces is physiologically ...

  6. Body fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_fluid

    The ECF compartment is divided into the interstitial fluid volume – the fluid outside both the cells and the blood vessels – and the intravascular volume (also called the vascular volume and blood plasma volume) – the fluid inside the blood vessels – in a three-to-one ratio: the interstitial fluid volume is about 12 liters; the vascular ...

  7. Blood - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood

    Blood is a body fluid in the circulatory system of humans and other vertebrates that delivers necessary substances such as nutrients and oxygen to the cells, and transports metabolic waste products away from those same cells. [1] Blood is composed of blood cells suspended in blood plasma.

  8. Plasma osmolality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_Osmolality

    As cell membranes in general are freely permeable to water, the osmolality of the extracellular fluid (ECF) is approximately equal to that of the intracellular fluid (ICF). Therefore, plasma osmolality is a guide to intracellular osmolality.

  9. Hemodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemodynamics

    The plasma contains 91.5% water, 7% proteins and 1.5% other solutes. The formed elements are platelets, white blood cells, and red blood cells. The presence of these formed elements and their interaction with plasma molecules are the main reasons why blood differs so much from ideal Newtonian fluids. [1]
