However when the blood from exercised fish was rapidly equilibrated to resting levels of PCO2 prior to assay, the rate was decreased by 15–35% relative to resting values. This effect was seen only in whole blood , not in plasma, indicating an inhibition at the level of the red cells. ...

Relatively high levels of a single 9-kb transcript were detected in liver, gill, kidney, stomach and intestine; NBC1 mRNA was barely detectable in blood, spleen and brain. Although a detailed tissue distribution of NBC1 in eel was not performed, mRNA was undetectable in gill using real-time...
RNase protection studies for NHE1 and AE2, utilizing glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase as an internal standard, demonstrated that there were regional differences in the NHE1 mRNA levels in human airways. In contrast, the levels of AE2 mRNA remained unchanged. Differential expression of these ...
The potential for β plasma to limit plasma HCO 3 dehydration was assessed in rainbow trout in which HCO 3 dehydration via the red blood cell (RBC) was inhibited using the anion exchange blocker 4,4′-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2′-disulphonic acid (DIDS). DIDS administration reduced the rate...
Genome-wide association studies identified as a locus associated with extreme blood pressure levels (Ehret G.B. Nature. 2011 vol. 478 p.103). The product of this gene, the electroneutral Na-coupled HCOcotransporter NBCn1 is an important mediator of acid鈥揵ase movement wherever it is ...
A buffer solution contains a weak acid and its corresponding weak base dissolved in water. Answer and Explanation: {eq}H_2CO_3 {/eq} (carbonic acid) is an example of a weak acid. It par...
in response to ANF41and relaxin42, respectively. Down-regulation ofEdnrb(endothelin receptor type B; 0.84-fold; not shown) could also contribute to vasodilation43. These expression changes would be expected to increase blood flow and O2delivery to stromal tissue in heart, thus providing some ...
blood gaslactateagreementObjective Analyses of arterial blood gas parameters, including pH, HCO3- and lactate, play an important role in assessing the clinical status of patients with heart failure. In the present study, we evaluated the degree of agreement in the pH, HCO3- and lactate levels ...
Hypercapnic acidosis activates Ca2+ channels and increases intracellular Ca2+ levels in neurons of the locus coeruleus, a known chemosensitive region involved in respiratory control. We have also shown that large conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channels, in conjunction with this pathway, limits the hype...
