Title: | Role of Na+/K+ exchange and organic-acids in base induced hyperpolarization of renal proximal amphibian tubule | Authors: | GRANITZER, Marita STEELS, Paul |
Issue Date: | 1991 | Publisher: | ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV | Source: | BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA, 1066(1). p. 111-114 | Abstract: | Fast peritubular alkaline perturbations in Necturus renal proximal tubule evoke hyperpolarizations of the basolateral membrane. These voltage changes are partly due to an increase in basolateral K+-permeability. Additional role of the Na+/K+-ATPase and organic acids in generating these base induced hyperpolarizations (BIH) can be deduced from the reduction in BIH during low K+, high amiloride or omission of organic acids. | Notes: | LIMBURGS UNIV CENTRUM,DEPT WNIFYSIOL,B-3610 DIEPENBEEK,BELGIUM. | Keywords: | HYPERPOLARIZATION; PH EFFECT; SODIUM POTASSIUM ION EXCHANGE; ORGANIC ACID; BASOLATERAL MEMBRANE POTENTIAL; MEMBRANE POTENTIAL; PROXIMAL TUBULE; (NECTURUS KIDNEY) | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/3903 | DOI: | 10.1016/0005-2736(91)90259-B | ISI #: | A1991FW86900019 | Type: | Journal Contribution |
