Evidence for a morphological component in acid-base regulation during environmental hypercapnia in the brown bullhead (Ictalurus nebulosus)
Abstract
Exposure of adult brown bullheads Ictalurus nebulosus (120–450 g) to environmental hypercapnia (2% carbon dioxide in air) and subsequent recovery caused transient changes in whole body net sodium flux (JnetNa+) and net chloride flux (JnetCl-) resulting largely from changes in whole body sodium influx (JinNa+) and chloride influx (JinCl-). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that the fractional area of chloride cells (CCs) on the …
