interstitial functions

Interstitial functions refer to the roles and processes that occur within the spaces between cells in the body's tissues. These functions include maintaining tissue fluid balance, facilitating the exchange of nutrients, oxygen, and waste products between blood vessels and cells, and supporting immune responses. Essentially, interstitial functions help ensure that cells receive what they need to stay healthy and remove wastes efficiently, contributing to overall tissue health and proper physiological functioning.
