Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular biology of major components of chloride cells.

TL;DR: While fish ENaC remains to be identified by molecular cloning and database mining, fish NHE has been cloned and shown to be highly expressed on the apical membrane of CCs, reviving the original model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanism of acid adaptation of a fish living in a pH 3.5 lake

TL;DR: Results suggest a mechanism by which Osorezan dace adapts to its acidic environment, and a significant role of ammonia and bicarbonate generated by glutamine catabolism is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for an apical Na-Cl cotransporter involved in ion uptake in a teleost fish.

TL;DR: It is deduced that NKCC1a is the seawater-type cotransporter involved in ion secretion by type-IV MRCs and that NCC is the freshwater-typecotransporter involved in ions absorption by types-II and type-II M RCs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional classification of mitochondrion-rich cells in euryhaline mozambique tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus) embryos, by means of triple immunofluorescence staining for Na+/K+-ATPase, Na+/K+/2Cl- cotransporter and CFTR anion channel

TL;DR: The intracellular localization of the three ion transport proteins in type-IV cells is completely consistent with a widely accepted model for ions secretion by MRCs and a new model for ion absorption is proposed based on type-II cells possessing apical NKCC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gene expression of Na+/H+ exchanger in zebrafish H+ -ATPase-rich cells during acclimation to low-Na+ and acidic environments.

TL;DR: Both NHE3b and H(+)-ATPase are probably involved in Na(+) uptake/acid-base regulation in zebrafish gills, like mammalian kidneys, but the partitioning of these two transporters may be differentially regulated depending on the environmental situation in which fish are acclimatized.
