Structures of tunneling nanotubes (TNTs) of the circular cross-section of 50 and 200 nm and length up to 1 mm form a communication system between cells. While transport of material such as endocytic vesicles, mitochondria, proteins, cytoplasmic molecules, etc., is experimentally proven, a possible transfer of electric and electromagnetic energy across TNTs corresponding to electrotechnical processes of excitation, propagation, and amplification in cavity systems is yet in a beginning stage of research. The ideas presented in this paper are based on technical mechanisms applied to submicroscopic systems. Main features of corrugated periodic structures, electromagnetic circular waveguides, the Manley–Rowe amplification, the Fröhlich non-linear interaction of coherent electric polar vibrations, and description of cut-off frequency propagating limits in the waveguide and cavities and along periodic structures are discussed. We suggest that cell-to-cell connection with TNTs may form a unified coherent cavity system which enables simultaneity and mutual cooperation in multicellular organisms.

通过隧道纳米管实现细胞间的电磁通信

具有 50 和 200 nm 的圆形横截面和长达 1 mm 的隧道纳米管 (TNT) 结构形成了细胞之间的通信系统。虽然内吞囊泡、线粒体、蛋白质、细胞质分子等材料的运输已通过实验证明,但与空腔系统中激发、传播和放大的电工过程相对应的跨 TNT 的电能和电磁能转移的可能性尚待研究。研究的开始阶段。本文提出的想法是基于应用于亚微观系统的技术机制。波纹周期结构、电磁圆形波导、Manley-Rowe 放大、相干电极振动的 Fröhlich 非线性相互作用的主要特征,并讨论了波导和腔中以及沿周期性结构的截止频率传播限制的描述。我们认为,与 TNT 的细胞间连接可能会形成一个统一的连贯腔系统,从而在多细胞生物中实现同时性和相互合作。
