Na+/H+and Na+/NH4+exchange activities of zebrafish NHE3b expressed inXenopusoocytes

Abstract: Zebrafish Na(+)/H(+) exchanger 3b (zNHE3b) is highly expressed in the apical membrane of ionocytes where Na(+) is absorbed from ion-poor fresh water against a concentration gradient. Much in vivo data indicated that zNHE3b is involved in Na(+) absorption but not leakage. However, zNHE3b-mediated Na(+) absorption has not been thermodynamically explained, and zNHE3b activity has not been measured. To address this issue, we overexpressed zNHE3b in Xenopus oocytes and characterized its activity by electrophysiolog… Show more

“…This is in stark contrast to the coupling of these ions typically observed in the gills and skin (Tsui et al, 2009;Wu et al, 2010;Kumai and Perry, 2011;Shih et al, 2012;Kwong et al, 2014). Furthermore, the mRNAs of NHE2 and NHE3, the two transport proteins implicated in Na + /NH 4 + coupling (Zimmer et al, 2010;Ito et al, 2014), were below detectable levels in the kidney (note that they were detectable in goldfish gill tissue in our hands), and there was no NKA response (Table 3, Fig. 6).…”

“…The pH i , aNa i , and aCl i of oocytes were measured using H + , Na + , or Cl − ion-selective microelectrodes prepared with H + ionophore I-mixture B ionselective resin (Fluka), Na + ionophore mixture A (Fluka), or Cl − ionophore I mixture A (Fluka), respectively, as described previously (40)(41)(42). The V m was measured as the difference between a KCl microelectrode and an extracellular calomel electrode.…”

“…To determine the relative involvement of Na + transporters in Na + uptake, DAPI and two other Na + inhibitors -ethyl-isopropyl-amiloride (EIPA), which has a high selectivity for NHE (Ito et al, 2014;Kleyman and Cragoe, 1988) and amiloride, which inhibits both NHE and Na + channels (Kleyman and Cragoe, 1988) -were tested in low-Na + (511±25 μmol l −1 ) and ultra-lowNa + (49.5±0.5 μmol l −1 ) conditions (Fig. 2).…”
