Separate Control Of Anion And Cation Transport In Malpighian Tubules Of Drosophila Melanogaster
Abstract
Microelectrode measurements of basal, apical and transepithelial potentials in the Malpighian tubules of Drosophila melanogaster were obtained under a range of conditions in order to investigate whether each of the three main second messenger systems known to act in the tubules (cyclic AMP, cyclic GMP and Ca2+) acted specifically on either cation or anion transport, or whether they activated both systems. Ion-selective microelectrode …
