โœฆ Synopsis

Carbonic anhydrase (CA) activity was histochemically localized in the elasmobranch rectal gland at the light and electron microscopic levels. Reaction product in the secretory tubules was localized coincident with that reported for sodium-potassium activated adenosine triphosphatase (Na-K-ATPase): along the highly amplified basolateral plasma membranes of the epithelial cells. Reaction product was also localized along the plasma membrane of adjacent central canal epithelial cells. The results suggest that CA plays a role in modulating the environment of the intercellular space which in the secretory tubule is believed to be the paracellular pathway for sodium. The results also draw attention to the possible role of the central canal epithelium in modification of the secreted fluid.

Background: Carbonic anhydrase has been localized to the acini and ducts of mature rat parotid glands. This enzyme has been associated with ion transport, a prominent function of striated and excretory ducts in salivary glands, suggesting that it might be used as a marker of ductal differentiation.

## Abstract Active transport of chloride in the salt secreting rectal gland of the dogfish __Squalus acanthias__ is markedly stimulated by the addition of theophylline (0.01 to 5 mM) or dibutyryl cyclic AMP (0.05 mM) during in vitro perfusion. The effect occurs promptly and may persist for two hour

Carbonic anhydrase (CAI activity was assayed by a histochemical method in mounted cryostat sections of larval midgut of Munducu sextu (Insecta: Sphingidae). In anterior and middle midgut most CA activity was associated with apical microvilli of goblet cells; with occasional patchy staining of the co
