Introduction to the model
The diffusion through the nanotubes is a fast process. This speed can be partially explained by the passive diffusion through the tubes. But what if it is faster? The article from Dubey and Ben-Yehuda suggests that the diffusion is an active process. Several points can be opposed to this statement:
- First, the diffusion is happening with molecule of different natures, that have nothing to do with the natural compoments of a cell
