Abstract excerpt
We examined the effect of intracellular acidification on the reverse mode of Na+/H+ exchange by measuring 22Na+ efflux from 22Na+-loaded PS120 cells expressing the Na+/H+ exchanger (NHE) isoforms NHE1, NHE2, and NHE3. The 5-(N-ethyl-N-isopropyl)amiloride (EIPA)- or amiloride-sensitive fraction of 22Na+ efflux was dramatically accelerated by cytosolic acidification as opposed to thermodynamic prediction,...
