In order to answer this question, let's talk about bulk transport.
00:07
So this back transport is the movement of large molecules or large amounts of small molecules across the membrane.
00:16
Okay? it takes place either by endocytosis or exocytosis.
00:28
Okay, and when we talk about photosytosis, we talk about phyocytosis, pinocytosis, and receptor, mediated endocytosis.
00:46
Okay, remember that endocytosis is going to pull molecules from outside, like into the intracellular, and extraceotosis is going to move a substance from the intracellular towards like outside.
01:00
When we talk about pinocytosis, pynecytosis is practically the process, or well, a mode of endocytosis, in which a small particle suspended in the extracellular part of a cell, it means if this is your cell membrane, okay.
01:14
And here you have some small molecules.
01:17
Okay, this small particle suspended in this extracellular space are brought into the cell through an imagination of a cell membrane.
01:25
So, for example, if this is a particle or a small particle, it's going to be invalinated by the cell membrane.
01:33
And it is going to get inside here, okay? like this.
01:39
For example, it works for molecules of water in order to take...
01:43
Or to bring water inside of the cell.
01:46
Okay, and this process is non -specific.
01:49
This process is not specific for the substances.
01:51
It is going to move.
01:53
It is only going to move small substances, but it is not going to be specific for that substances.
01:58
It is going to move.
02:00
Our phagocytosis, phagocytosis is part, remember that this function is part of some cells that are part of immune response.
02:07
It's specifically about innate immune response.
02:10
So, if this is your macrophase, for example, it is going to extend, and we have here a big particle, for example, bacteria, and the macrophage is going to extend its cell membrane in order to engulf this particle.
02:27
And it is going to engulf it like this, in a vesicle too.
02:33
Okay, and this process is also non -specific.
02:35
Because as this macrophage is part of the innate in young response, it is going to, it is a non -specific immune response where it is going to respond in the same...
