the model that cell volume and ion content are set by a steady balance between active ion pumping and passive leak.

In membrane biophysics, pump-leak model refers to the model that cell volume and ion content are set by a steady balance between active ion pumping and passive leak. This meaning comes from Tosteson (1960) in The Journal of General Physiology.[1]
