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
Changes in intracellular ion concentrations have been correlated with the activation of an endogenous endonuclease and thus internucleosomal DNA cleavage during apoptosis in many cell types. We investigated whether intracellular pH could play a significant role in apoptotic initiation and progressio
