Salt secretion is linked to acid-base regulation of ionocytes in seawater-acclimated medaka: new insights into the salt-secreting mechanism
Ionocytes in the skin and gills of seawater (SW) teleosts are responsible for both salt and acid secretion. However, the mechanism through which ionocytes secrete acid is still unclear. Here, we hypothesized that apical Na(+)/H(+) exchangers (NHE2/3), carbonic anhydrase (CA2-like), and basolateral HCO3(-)/Cl(-) exchanger (AE1) are involved in acid secretion. In addition, the hypothesized involv...
متن کاملProton-facilitated ammonia excretion by ionocytes of medaka (Oryzias latipes) acclimated to seawater.
The proton-facilitated ammonia excretion is critical for a fish's ability to excrete ammonia in freshwater. However, it remains unclear whether that mechanism is also critical for ammonia excretion in seawater (SW). Using a scanning ion-selective electrode technique (SIET) to measure H(+) gradients, an acidic boundary layer was detected at the yolk-sac surface of SW-acclimated medaka (Oryzias l...
متن کاملNew insights into ion regulation of cephalopod molluscs: a role of epidermal ionocytes in acid-base regulation during embryogenesis.
The constraints of an active life in a pelagic habitat led to numerous convergent morphological and physiological adaptations that enable cephalopod molluscs and teleost fishes to compete for similar resources. Here, we show for the first time that such convergent developments are also found in the ontogenetic progression of ion regulatory tissues; as in teleost fish, epidermal ionocytes scatte...
متن کاملSalt sensitivity in humans is associated with abnormal acid-base regulation.
Metabolic acidosis has recently been observed in rat models of salt-sensitive genetic hypertension. To test the hypothesis that salt sensitivity in humans may be associated with abnormal acid-base homeostasis, we performed arterial blood gas analyses in young (20-31 years old) normotensive subjects (n = 40) who were placed on a low salt diet (20 mmol NaCl/day) for 2 weeks with either 200 mmol s...
متن کاملAcid secretion by mitochondrion-rich cells of medaka (Oryzias latipes) acclimated to acidic freshwater.
In the present study, medaka embryos were exposed to acidified freshwater (pH 5) to investigate the mechanism of acid secretion by mitochondrion-rich (MR) cells in embryonic skin. With double or triple in situ hybridization/immunocytochemistry, the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger 3 (NHE3) and H(+)-ATPase were localized in two distinct subtypes of MR cells. NHE3 was expressed in apical membranes of a major...
