We have investigated the characteristics of a transport system in HeLa cells, which turned out to be very similar to a previously described Na+, K+, 2CI--cotransport system. For further understanding about the physiological role of the cotransporter, we have mutagenized HeLa cells and selected proge
After swelling in hyposmotic solution, Ehrlich ascites tumor cells shrink towards their original volume. Upon restoration of isosmolality (300 mOsM) the cells initially shrink but subsequently recover volume. This regulatory volume increase (RVI) is completely blocked when [Na+]o or [Cl-]o is reduce
To explore further the mechanisms that regulate the Na+/H + antiport in human platelets, we examined the effect of Na + pump inhibition by ouabain and K + removal from the extracellular medium on parameters of this transport system. Treatment with ouabain resulted in increased cytosolic free Ca 2+ a
