چکیده
Supporting Information S4 Fig. Immunohistochemical staining of rat and mouse brains with anti-Nax antibodies. Immunohistochemical staining of the coronal sections of rat and mouse brains, containing the median preoptic nucleus (MnPO) (A) and median eminence (B) with anti-rat Nax [12] and anti-mNax antibodies. Immunohistochemical staining was performed as described in S5 File. Neither rat nor mouse MnPO was negative for Nax (A). On the other hand, the median eminence was clearly stained with both antibodies (B). AC, anterior commissure. Scale bars, 200 μm. (TIF)

Channel Properties of Nax Expressed in Neurons
Nax is a sodium-concentration ([Na+])-sensitive Na channel with a gating threshold of ~150 mM for extracellular [Na+] ([Na+]o) in vitro. We previously reported that Nax was preferentially expressed in the glial cells of sensory circumventricular organs including the subfornical organ, and was involved in [Na+] sensing for the control of salt-intake behavior. Although Nax was also suggested to b...
متن کاملSodium-level-sensitive sodium channel and salt-intake behavior.
Mammals feel thirsty or develop an appetite for salt when the correct balance between water and sodium in the body fluid has been disrupted, but little is known about the mechanism in the brain that controls salt homeostasis. It has been postulated that the existence of both an osmoreceptor and a specific sodium receptor is required to accommodate the experimental data (Johnson and Edwards, 199...
متن کاملExtracellular Na+ levels regulate formation and activity of the NaX/alpha1-Na+/K+-ATPase complex in neuronal cells
MnPO neurons play a critical role in hydromineral homeostasis regulation by acting as sensors of extracellular sodium concentration ([Na(+)]out). The mechanism underlying Na(+)-sensing involves Na(+)-flow through the NaX channel, directly regulated by the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase α1-isoform which controls Na(+)-influx by modulating channel permeability. Together, these two partners form a complex invo...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Use of Various Silica Source on NaX Zeolite Properties
Silicon and aluminum sources are most important reactants in the synthesis of zeolite. The use of the silicon source has an important effect on the crystallization of zeolites. Also, it can change the properties of the end product. This work reports the influence of three common commercial silica sources such as colloidal silica (Ludox AM-30), fumed silica and water glass on the crystallinity o...
متن کاملThe Effects of Buthotus schach Scorpion Venom on Electrophysiological Properties of Magnocellular Neurons of Rat Supraoptic Nucleus
Potassium channels are trans-membrane proteins, which selectively transport K+ ions across cell membranes and play a key role in regulating the physiology of excitability cells and signal transduction pathways. Bothutous Schach (BS) scorpion venom consists of several polypeptides that could modulate ion channels. In this study, the effects of BS crude venom on passive and active electrophysiolo...
