Changes in extracellular pH during electrical stimulation of isolated rat vagus nerve [PDF]
Double-barrelled pH-sensitive micro-electrodes were used to record changes of extracellular pH during repetitive stimulation of isolated rat vagus nerves. It was found that a small initial alkaline shift was followed by a prolonged acidification.

Cellular mechanisms of potassium homeostasis in the mammalian nervous system [PDF]
Double-barrelled ion-sensitive microelectrodes were used to measure changes in the intracellular activities of K+, Na+, and Cl- (aKi, aNai, aCli) in neurones of rat sympathetic ganglia and in glial cells of slices from guinea-pig olfactory cortex.

Neuroinflammation and Neutrophils: Modulation by Ouabain [PDF]
Cardiotonic steroids are natural compounds that present many physiological and pharmacological functions. They bind Na+/K+-ATPase (NKA) modifying cellular ion concentration and trigger cell signaling mechanisms without altering ion balance. These steroids are known to modulate some immune responses, including cytokine production, neutrophil migration ...

Changes in intracellular ion activities induced by adrenaline in human and rat skeletal muscle [PDF]
To study the stimulating effect of adrenaline (ADR) on active Na+/K+ transport we used double-barrelled ion-sensitive micro-electrodes to measure the activities of extracellular K+ (aKe) and intracellular Na+ (aNai) in isolated preparations of rat soleus

Ouabain enhances ADPKD cell apoptosis via the intrinsic pathway
Progression of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is highly influenced by factors circulating in blood. We have shown that the hormone ouabain enhances several characteristics of the ADPKD cystic phenotype, including the rate of cell ...

Sodium chloride transport of normal and dietary enlarged rat cecum in vitro [PDF]
Sodium chloride transport across isolated cecum mucosa was investigated in normal rats and rats with adaptive cecum growth induced by dietary polyethylene glycol (PEG). The normal cecum absorbed CI in excess of Na with a small short-circuit current (Isc).

Radioiodinated Tyrosyl-Ouabain and Measurement of a Circulating Ouabain-like Compound [PDF]
Abstract Background: Assays for endogenous ouabain, a cardiac glycoside believed to be involved in blood pressure and volume regulation, are characterized by laboratory-specific plasma values that are measured by different assays. Because of this variability, our study focused on the development of a new 125I-labeled ouabain derivative ...

THE EFFECT OF LITHIUM ON THE INOTROPIC EFFECT OF OUABAIN AND MANIFESTATION OF ARRHYTHMIA IN GUINEA-PIG ATRIA [PDF]
rli....xposure ofthe guinea-pig whole a/ria to lithium (1 and 5 mM) produced a reduction ofinotropic response to ouubain. The inhibitory effect oflithium (1 m"f) was slight, whereas lithium (5 mM) significantly reduced tlze response oj the preparations ...

The cardiotonic steroids (CTS), such as ouabain and marinobufagenin, are thought to be adrenocortical hormones secreted during exercise and the stress response. The catalytic α-subunit of Na,K-ATPase (NKA) is a CTS receptor, whose largest pool is located
