The isolated rectal gland of Squalus acanthias was stimulated to secrete chloride against an electrical and a chemical gradient when perfused in vitro by theophylline and/or dibutyryl cyclic AMP. Chloride secretion was depressed by ouabain which inhibits Na-K-ATPase. Thiocyanate and furosemide also inhibited chloride secretion but ethoxzolamide, a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, did not. Chloride...

Inhibition of purified AMP-deaminase from chicken breast muscle by phosphate esters and inorganic phosphate has been investigated. When tested at a concentration of 3 mM, in the presence of 0.15 M potassium chloride, the order of effectiveness as inhibitors of deaminase activity was: 2,3diphosphoglyceric acid, 3-phosphoglyceric acid, 2-phosphoglyceric acid, 2-phosphoenolpyruvate, fructose 1,6di...

19 20 Taste stimuli encountered in the natural environment are usually combinations of multiple 21 tastants. Although a great deal is known about how neurons in the taste system respond to 22 single taste stimuli in isolation, less is known about how the brain deals with such mixture 23 stimuli. Here, we probe the responses of single neurons in primary gustatory cortex (GC) of 24 awake rats to ...

The present study was designed to investigate the role of abnormalities in red blood cell sodium-potassium-chloride (Na-K-Cl) cotransport and Na+ pump as predictors of the pressor response to chronic oral Na+ loading in young whites and blacks. Subjects were healthy adults from 18 to 23 years of age and included normotensive whites (n = 24) and normotensive blacks (n = 35). Red blood cell trans...

Studies were carried out in normal male subjects (n = 6, age 20-35 years) to determine the interaction of angiotensin II and plasma sodium on aldosterone secretion. These relations were quantified by elevation of plasma sodium with an infusion of 5% sodium chloride (4 ml/kg/30 min i.v.) with measurements of plasma aldosterone, atrial natriuretic factor (ANF), and arginine vasopressin (AVP) over...

Intestinal ionic exchanges were studied in rat duodenal, jejunal and ileal ligated loops in response to different luminal saline loads: NaCl concentration varied from 150-0 mM, solutions being made isoosmotic with mannitol. The contact delay was 60 min. An exponential relationship was found between water, Na and Cl movements and the initial saline concentration. Maximal absorption was obtained ...

separation of some biogenic amines via rp-hplc using mixed micellar mobile phase was investigated. the compounds were derivatized before hand by dansyl chloride as a chromophoric reagent. appropriate conditions for separation, were determined by studying factors such as temperature, type and percentage of organic modifier, concentration of surfactants (sds and brij-35) and the ph of the mobile ...
