The purpose of the present review is to describe the use of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors in clinical medicine and renal physiology. We first describe the localization of carbonic anhydrase within the kidney and then discuss evidence for its role in renal acidification and NaCl absorption.

Background Metabolic alkalosis is common in patients with respiratory failure and may delay weaning in mechanically ventilated patients. Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors block renal bicarbonate reabsorption, and thus reverse metabolic alkalosis.

Role of carbon dioxide and ion transport in the formation of sub-embryonic fluid by the blastoderm of the Japanese quail [PDF]
1. The explanted blastoderm of the Japanese quail was used to explore the role of ions and carbon dioxide in determining the rate of sub-embryonic fluid (SEF) production between 54 and 72 h of incubation. 2.

Preclinical Evaluation of Ureidosulfamate Carbonic Anhydrase IX/XII Inhibitors in the Treatment of Cancers [PDF]
Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are a family of enzymes involved in the pH regulation of metabolically active cells/tissues. Upregulation of the CAIX/XII isoforms is associated with hypoxic tumours and clinically linked with malignant progression, treatment ...

Ureidobenzenesulfonamides as Selective Carbonic Anhydrase I, IX, and XII Inhibitors
Sulfonamides remain an important class of drugs, especially because of their inhibitory effects on carbonic anhydrases. Herein, we have synthesized several sulfonamides and tested them for their inhibitory activity against carbonic anhydrases hCA I, hCA ...

Evolution and diversity of alpha-carbonic anhydrases in the mantle of the Mediterranean mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis) [PDF]
The α-carbonic anhydrases (α-CAs) are a large and ancient group of metazoan-specific enzymes. They generate bicarbonate from metabolic carbon dioxide and through calcium carbonate crystal formation play a key role in the regulation of mineralized ...
