## Abstract The major mechanisms of urea turnover and of active ion transport in osmoregulaβ tory organs are reviewed. Using published values for the molecular flow through these systems it is possible to estimate the energetic cost of osmotic regulation in hyporegulating marine teleosts and in ure
## Abstract Pertinent behavioral and physiological variables related to the development of the onset of drinking were measured in albino rats of both sexes between 14 and 100 days of age. Under __ad libitum__ conditions all variables studied were found to increase as a function of age. Following a
The influence of cell hydration and taurine on the heat shock response was studied in primary rat hepatocytes. Heat-induced accumulation of inducible heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) mRNA and protein was increased under hypoosmotic conditions. In contrast, hyper-osmotic exposure blocked the HSP70 respo
## Abstract The marine copepod __Tigriopus californicus__ shows rapid adjustment of intracellular proline and alanine pools in response to salinity stress. Small increases in salinity (on the order of 2 ppt or 50 mOsmoles) are sufficient to elicit proline synthesis in animals acclimated to 50% seaw
