Cell Shell

The cell membrane is the outer shell of the cell, which protects it from external influences and ensures the exchange of substances between the cell and the environment. The cell membrane consists of proteins and lipids and has a thickness of several tens to several hundred nanometers.

The cell membrane plays an important role in the life of the cell. It allows the cell to receive nutrients and oxygen from the environment, as well as release metabolic products. In addition, the cell membrane is involved in the transmission of signals between cells and regulates the processes of cell division and growth.

In the human body, the cell membrane performs many functions. For example, it is involved in the formation of immune cells such as white blood cells and platelets. Also, the cell membrane can be damaged in various diseases, such as atherosclerosis and diabetes.

Various methods are used to treat diseases associated with damage to the cell membrane. For example, to improve metabolism in cells, preparations containing vitamins and minerals are used. Preparations containing proteins and lipids can also be used to treat damage to the cell membrane.
