Journal ArticleDOI
Sodium chloride and water transport in the medullary thick ascending limb of Henle. Evidence for active chloride transport.
Antonino S. Rocha,Juha P. Kokko +1 more
TL;DR: The medullary thick ascending limb of Henle is water impermeable while having the capacity for active outward solute transport as a consequence of an electrogenic chloride pump and the combination of these characteristics allows this segment to generate a dilute tubular fluid and participate as the principal energy source for the overall operation of the countercurrent multiplication system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ion transport in cortical collecting tubule; effect of amiloride.
TL;DR: It is concluded that amiloride inhibits active sodium and potassium transport in the cortical collecting tubule, but does not inhibit active chloride Transport in the thick ascending limb, and that these effects account for the action of the drug previously observed in the intact kidney.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ionic mechanism for the photoreceptor potential of the retina of Bufo marinus
J. E. Brown,L. H. Pinto +1 more
TL;DR: Membrane potentials were recorded from single rods in the isolated retina of Bufo marinus while the ionic composition of the extracellular medium was rapidly changed, implying that feed‐back from horizontal cells to receptor cells was not active.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pathways for movement of ions and water across toad urinary bladder. I. Anatomic site of transepithelial shunt pathways.
TL;DR: The skin of Xenopus laevis is similarly responsive to increases in tonicity of the outer bathing medium but here, where vasopressin exerts a natriferic but not a hydroosmotic effect, hormone administration does not inhibit the osmotically induced electrical and morphologic changes.

Transport pathways in biological membranes.
Hans H. Ussing,D Erlij,U Lassen +2 more
TL;DR: This review deals with transport through biological membranes, and the permeability properties of nerve membranes can be greatly changed by, say, adsorbed inorganic ions.
