Fig. 3. The effect of the nitric oxide (NO) donors sodium nitroprusside (SNP; 1
mmol l1) and papa-nonoate (NOC-15; 0.2 mmol
l1) on in situ Na+/K+-ATPase
activity (measured as ouabain-sensitive Rb+ uptake) in kidney (A)
and gill (B) tissue. Samples were pre-incubated for 10 min with the NO donors
before the Rb+ uptake assay. Different letters indicate significant
difference (P<0.05). Values are means ± S.E.M.
(N=8).
