| Abstract | Brain cell swelling compromises neuronal function and survival by the risk of generation of ischemia episodes as compression of small vessels occurs due to the limits to expansion imposed by the rigid skull. External osmolarity reductions or intracellular accumulation of osmotically active solutes result in cell swelling which can be counteracted by extrusion of osmolytes through specific efflux pathways. Characterization of these pathways has received considerable attention, and there is now interest in the understanding of the intracellular signaling events involved in their activation and regulation. Calcium and calmodulin, phosphoinositides and cAMP may act as second messengers, carrying the information about a cell volume change into signaling enzymes. Small GTPases, protein tyrosine kinases and phospholipases, also appear to be part of the signaling cascades ultimately modulating the osmolyte efflux pathways. This review focus on i) the influence of hyposmotic and isosmotic swelling on these signaling events and molecules and ii) the effects of manipulating their function on the osmolyte fluxes, particularly K$^{+}$, CI$^{−}$ and amino acids, and on the consequent efficiency of cell volume adjustment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
