Written by leading experts in the field, the fifth edition of the Cell Physiology Sourcebook, Fifth Edition offers a critical, comprehensive, and multidisciplinary overview of essential aspects of cell physiology and biophysics, spanning from bacterial and archaeal cells to mammalian cells and tissues. The present edition incorporates new molecular insights without losing the integrative perspective of cell physiology and biophysics, as well as its foundational concepts. Our target readers are advanced students and researchers interested in understanding how cells work.
The history of this book goes back to Hugh Davson’s classic A Textbook of General Physiology, which reached its fourth and last edition in 1970. The successor of this influential work was Cell Physiology Sourcebook, first published in 1995 and edited by the late Professor Nicholas Sperelakis, with a foreword written by Davson. At that time, the knowledge of molecular and cell physiology became so vast that a single author's work, like its predecessor, was materially impossible. Professor Sperelakis, for whom we dedicate the present edition, put together an impressive volume with the contribution of various experts in fundamental areas of the field until the 4th edition, published in 2012, one year before his death. This book's success and the gap it fills motivated the present editors to continue this project, updating the entire book to reflect new developments.
Francisco Javier Alvarez-Leefmans, MD, PhD, is a Professor Emeritus in the Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology at Boonshoft School of Medicine, Wright State University, Dayton, OH. He earned his MD from the National University of Mexico (UNAM) and his PhD in Physiology from University College London, where he also completed postdoctoral training under the guidance of Professors Sir Bernard Katz and Ricardo Miledi. In 1997, he received the Guggenheim Fellowship in Natural Sciences (Neuroscience) for his research on chloride transport mechanisms in primary sensory neurons. He was the first to describe and functionally characterize the Na+–K+-2Cl- cotransporter (NKCC1) in the vertebrate nervous system. His findings demonstrated that this cotransporter maintains high intracellular chloride levels in primary sensory neurons, which explains the depolarizing effect of GABA, a key process in presynaptic inhibition in the spinal cord. These are crucial mechanisms regulating the transmission of sensory information, including nociceptive signals. To study the functional dynamics of electroneutral chloride transport proteins, he developed the "calcein method," a fluorescent live-cell imaging technique that measures real-time changes in water volume within single cells. He and his team have conducted influential research on water cotransport via NKCC1, and the role of this transporter in the choroid plexus epithelium, where it helps regulate cell water volume and potassium ion concentration in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Besides his research, Alvarez-Leefmans is highly regarded for his dedication to medical student education. He is committed to teaching and mentoring, inspiring students to develop critical thinking skills. In 2019, he received the inaugural Wright State Medical Student Educator Award. Dr. Alvarez-Leefmans has authored four books and over 75 peer-reviewed journal articles and book chapters. He is a member of the American Physiological Society, The Physiological Society (UK), the National Academy of Medicine (Mexico), and the Latin American Academy of Sciences (ALAS).
Eric Delpire, PhD, is a Professor of Anesthesiology and Molecular Physiology and Biophysics in the Department of Anesthesiology at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, TN. He earned his PhD in Physiology from the University of Liège, Belgium. He completed postdoctoral training at Wright State University in Dayton, OH, and at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, MA. He is a recognized expert in cell volume regulation and ion transport mechanisms across biological membranes. He is credited with discovering the regulatory pathway involving WNK and SPAK/OSR1 kinases, as well as their interaction with cation-chloride cotransporters. Dr. Delpire has developed numerous genetically modified mouse models of cation-chloride transporters, kinases, and other regulatory molecules, including traditional global and conditional knockouts and knock-ins, as well as CRISPR/Cas9-generated knockout and knock-in models. These models are crucial tools for understanding how genetic mutations in these proteins affect various cellular functions and medical conditions such as hypertension, neurological disorders, and gastrointestinal diseases. For his groundbreaking research, Dr. Delpire has received numerous awards, including the Hugh Davson Distinguished Lectureship (2023) from the Cell and Molecular Physiology Section of the American Physiological Society. He has been elected a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the American Physiological Society. He has published over 230 peer-reviewed papers and several book chapters.

(A ‘consumer’ is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within one month without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is one month with effect from the day,
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
In order to exercise your revocation right, you must inform us (Moluna GmbH, Münsterstr. 105, 48268 Greven, Telephone number: 02571/5 69 89 33, Fax number: 02571/5 69 89 30, E-Mail address: abe@moluna.de) of your decision to revoke this contract by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent via post, fax or email). You can use the enclosed specimen revocation form for this, which however is not mandatory.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts.
The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
for delivery of products if they have been mixed inseparably with other goods after the delivery, owing to their condition;
for delivery of sound or video recording or computer software in a sealed package if the seal has been removed after the delivery.
