Compared to terrestrial animals, fish have to cope with more-challenging osmotic and ionic
gradients from aquatic environments with diverse salinities, ion compositions, and pH …

Teleost fishes are able to acclimatize to seawater by secreting excess NaCl by means of
specialized “ionocytes” in the gill epithelium. Antibodies against Na+/K+-ATPase (NKA) …

Anthropogenic sources increase freshwater salinity and produce differences in constituent
ions compared with natural waters. Moreover, ions differ in physiological roles and …

SUMMARY Gill Na+/K+-ATPase (NKA) in teleost fishes is involved in ion regulation in both
freshwater and seawater. We have developed and validated rabbit polyclonal antibodies …

Cation–chloride cotransporters, such as the Na+/K+/2Cl–cotransporter (NKCC) and Na+/Cl–
cotransporter (NCC), are localized to the apical or basolateral plasma membranes of …

This study examines changes in gill Na+, K+-ATPase (NKA) α-and β-subunit isoforms, Na+,
K+, 2Cl-cotransporter (NKCC) and cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator …

Teleost fishes are the major group of ray-finned fishes and represent more than one-half of
the total number of vertebrate species. They have experienced in their evolution an …

Marine to freshwater colonizations constitute among the most dramatic evolutionary
transitions in the history of life. This study examined evolution of ionic regulation following …

Abstract Thyroxine (T 4) and triiodothyronine (T 3), the principal thyroid hormones (THs)
secreted from the hypothalamic–pituitary–thyroid (HPT) axis, produce a plethora of …

Smolting in Atlantic salmon Salmo salar is a critical life‐history stage that is preparatory for
downstream migration and entry to seawater that is regulated by abiotic variables including …
