pH regulation
- Multiple functions of ion transport by the nuchal organ in embryos and neonates of the freshwater branchiopod crustacean Daphnia magna
Summary: Measurements with the scanning ion-selective microelectrode technique reveal roles of the nuchal organ in ionoregulation, pH regulation and nitrogenous waste excretion by Daphnia magna.
- Differential glycogen utilization in shark acid- and base-regulatory gill cells
Summary: Shark gill acid–base regulatory cells contain large intracellular glycogen stores that are differentially utilized and replenished during acid–base stress.
- Effect of temperature on chemosensitive locus coeruleus neurons of savannah monitor lizards, Varanus exanthematicus
Summary: CO2 chemosensitivity is temperature dependent in savannah monitor lizards, where the proportion of locus coeruleus neurons excited or inhibited by CO2 changes with changes in temperature.
