Based on the results of expeditionary studies (July 2021), geochemical features thermal waters (natural manifestations and borehole waters) discharging near or directly Sea Okhotsk Pacific coasts central part Iturup Island were considered: Reidovskie, Lososevye, Cape Konakov, Goryachie Klyuchi, Dachnye, water-recreational complex «Vannochki». The springs (with exception Lososevye) belong to sub...

31 Anion secretion by colonic epithelium is dependent on apical CFTR-mediated anion 32 conductance and basolateral ion transport. In many tissues, the NKCC1 Na-K-2Cl 33 cotransporter mediates basolateral Cl uptake. However, additional evidence suggests that the 34 AE2 Cl/HCO3 exchanger, when coupled with the NHE1 Na/H exchanger or a Na-HCO3 35 cotransporter (NBC), contributes to HCO3 and/or Cl ...

Genistein has been reported to stimulate luminal HCO3(-) secretion. We hypothesized that genistein mediates this effect via SLC26A6 and SLC4A4 (NBCe1) transporters. Our study aimed to: investigate changes in uterine fluid pH, Na+ and HCO3(-) concentration and expression of uterine SLC26A6 and NBCe1 under genistein effect. Ovariectomized adult female rats received 25, 50 and 100 mg/kg/day genist...

Na-HCO3 cotransport (NBC) regulates intracellular pH (pHi) and HCO3 secretion in rat colon. NBC has been characterized as a 5,5'-diisothiocyanato-2-2'-stilbene (DIDS)-sensitive transporter in several tissues, while the colonic NBC is sensitive to both amiloride and DIDS. In addition, the colonic NBC has been identified as critical for pHi regulation as it is activated by intravesicular acid pH....

Abstract This study reported the results of groundwater quality for drinking and irrigation purposes in Kurukshetra district, Haryana, India. Twelve parameters, namely pH, TDS, TH, sodium (Na+), magnesium (Mg2+), calcium (Ca2+), potassium (K+), chloride (Cl−), sulfate (SO42−), bicarbonate (HCO3−), nitrate (NO3−), fluoride (F−) were evaluated Water Quality Index (WQI) was calculated. Based on WQ...

Physiol. 277 (Renal Physiol. 46): F611–F623, 1999.— Recently, we reported the cloning and expression of the rat renal electrogenic Na-HCO3 2 cotransporter (rkNBC) in Xenopus oocytes [M. F. Romero, P. Fong, U. V. Berger, M. A. Hed...

The effect of chronic hyperfiltration, a model of cell hypertrophy, on H/HCO3 transporters was examined in the in vivo microperfused rat proximal tubule. Hyperfiltration was induced by uninephrectomy with subsequent increased dietary protein. After 2 wk the hyperfiltration group had a higher glomerular filtration rate (2.21 +/- 0.13 vs. 1.48 +/- 0.12 ml/min), associated with increased kidney we...

Abstract The present work was carried out in the deltaic region of river Godavari coastal Andhra Pradesh southern India to evaluate status groundwater quality for irrigation. Groundwater is predominantly used these productive agricultural fields. Saline water intrusion fresh aquifers, which mainly due excess withdrawal groundwater, recorded study area. A total 80 samples were analyzed physical ...

The intracellular pH-regulating mechanism of the squid axon was examined for its dependence on the concentrations of external Na+ and HCO3-, always at an external pH (pHo) of 8.0. Axons having an initial intracellular pH (pHi) of approximately 7.4 were internally dialyzed with a solution of pH 6.5 that contained 400 mM Cl- and no Na+. After pHi had fallen to approximately 6.6, dialysis was halt...
