Sodium Fluxes in Desheathed Frog Sciatic Nerve
Desheathed frog (R. pipiens) sciatic nerves were soaked in solutions that contained ouabain or NaN(3), in K-free solutions, or in K- and Ca-free solutions. Then, the nerves were allowed to recover in standard Ringer's solution. At various times during the soaking periods, some nerves were analyzed for Na and K, and estimates were made of the influx and efflux of Na(22). While a nerve was soakin...
متن کاملFluxes and Distribution of Sodium in Frog Skin
The exchange of substances between higher organisms and the environment takes place at the level of epithelial membranes constituted by one or more layers of cells. Experimental models (17, 31, 50) and theoretical analysis (13, 45) generally assume that any molecule going across an epithelial membrane must traverse at least two plasma membranes: one to get into the epithelial cells and another ...
متن کاملEffects of Sodium Azide on Sodium Fluxes in Frog Striated Muscle
Unidirectional Na fluxes from frog's striated muscle were measured in the presence of 0 to 5 mM sodium azide. With azide concentrations of 2 and 5 mM the Na efflux was markedly stimulated; the Na efflux with 5 mM azide was about 300 per cent greater than normal. A similar increase was present when all but the 5.0 mM sodium added with azide was replaced by choline. 10(-5)M strophanthidin abolish...
متن کاملStrophanthidin-sensitive sodium fluxes in metabolically poisoned frog skeletal muscle
Strophanthidin-sensitive and insensitive unidirectional fluxes of Na were measured in fog sartorius muscles whose internal Na levels were elevated by overnight storage in the cold. ATP levels were lowered, and ADP levels raised, by metabolic poisoning with either 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene or iodoacetamide. Strophanthidin-sensitive Na efflux and influx both increased after poisoning, while stroph...
متن کاملSodium and potassium concentration and transmembrane fluxes in leukocytes.
Reported values for the potassium to sodium ratio in white blood cells range from less than 1 to about 4. This marked variability might be explained by in vitro cation shifts induced by extraordinarily high cation permeability. To test this hypothesis, human leukocytes from 5 ml of blood were maintained in plasma at 37’C and separated by differential centrifugation in specially devised microtub...
