... + /Cl – cotransporter mitochondria-rich cell Mozambique tilapia gill morphology Euryhaline teleosts inhabiting both freshwater and seawater maintain their plasma osmolalities within narrow physiological ranges, equivalent to about one-third seawater osmolality. The gills, kidney...

... mitochondria-rich cells (MRCs). From tilapia gills, we cloned four full-length cDNAs homologous to human cation–chloride cotransporters and designated them as tilapia NKCC1a, NKCC1b, NKCC2 and NCC. Out of the four candidates, the mRNA encoding NKCC1a was highly expressed in the yolk-sac membrane and gills...

... and the implications of dual sensory pathways for cardiorespiratory and vascular control. In addition, the idea of the neural control of ion regulation in the gill based on the apparent innervation of mitochondria-rich cells, and the role of innervation in the pseudobranch, will be presented. * Author...

...G. Ivanis; A. J. Esbaugh; S. F. Perry SUMMARY Experiments were conducted on adult rainbow trout ( Oncorhynchus mykiss ) to test the hypothesis that SLC9 Na + /H + exchangers (SLC9A2, NHE2; and SLC9A3, NHE3) on the gill epithelium are localized specifically to a subset of mitochondria-rich cells...

McCormick SUMMARY We compared seawater tolerance, gill Na + /K + -ATPase and Na + /K + /2Cl – cotransporter (NKCC)abundance, and mitochondria-rich cell (MRC) morphology of three salmonids,lake trout Salvelinus namaycush , brook trout Salvelinus fontinalis and Atlantic salmon...

... that an ancestral form of the mammalian genes diverged from those in the lower vertebrates prior to the gene duplication event that gave rise to TRPV5 and TRPV6. The putative model for Ca 2+ uptake in fish proposes that the mitochondria-rich cell (also termed ionocyte or chloride cell) is the predominant...
