SLC26 anion exchangers (probably SLC26A3 and SLC26A6) are expressed on the apical membrane of pancreatic duct cells and play a key role in HCO3- secretion; a process that is inhibited by the neuropeptide, substance P (SP). SP had no effect on basolateral HCO3- transporters in the duct cell or on CFTR Cl- channels, but inhibited a Cl- -dependent HCO3- efflux step on the apical membrane. In microperfused ducts, luminal H2DIDS (0.5mM) caused intracellular pH to alkalinize (consistent with inhibition of HCO3- efflux) and, like SP, inhibited HCO3- secretion. SP did not reduce HCO3- secretion further when H2DIDS was applied to the duct lumen, suggesting that SP and H2DIDS inhibit the same transporter on the apical membrane. As SLC26A6 is DIDS-sensitive, this isoform is the likely target for SP. The inhibitory effect of SP was mimicked by phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu), an activator of protein kinase C (PKC). Moreover, bisindolylmaleimide, a blocker of PKC, relieved the inhibitory effect of both SP and PDBu on HCO3- secretion. Western blot analysis revealed that guinea pig pancreatic ducts express the alpha, beta1, delta, epsilon, eta, theta, zeta and mu isoforms o f PKC. We conclude that PKC is a negative regulator of SLC26 activity in pancreatic duct cells.

Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are ubiquitous enzymes that catalyze reversibly both the hydration and dehydration reactions of CO and HCO-, respectively. Higher plants contain many different isoforms of CAs that can be classified into α-, β- and γ-type subfamilies. β-type CAs play a key role in the CO-concentrating mechanism, thereby contributing to efficient photosynthesis in the C plants in addition to many other biochemical reactions in plant metabolism.

Autosomal recessive proximal renal tubular acidosis (AR-pRTA) with ocular abnormalities is a rare syndrome caused by variants in the SLC4A4 gene, which encodes Na/HCO3 cotransporter (NBCe1). The syndrome primarily affects the kidneys, but also causes extra-renal manifestations. Pancreatic type NBCe1 is located at the basolateral membrane of the pancreatic ductal cells and together with CFTR chloride channel, it is involved in bicarbonate secretion.

The design of efficient advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) in the presence of bicarbonate has long attracted considerable attention in the field of environmental catalysis. In this study, sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO) as one of the most abundant substances in actual water, was introduced to a NaClO/Ru(III) system to enhance the removal of acid orange 7(AO7). NaHCO could significantly improve the removal efficiency of the Ru(III)/NaClO process in HCO at a pH range of 6.

This study aimed to investigate whether lymphocyte-C-reactive protein ratio (LCR) upon admission can predict disease progression and intensive care unit (ICU) admission in adult patients with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). A single-center retrospective study was conducted, including adult DKA patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University between March 2018 and March 2023. Multiple demographic and clinical data were collected from the medical records upon admission and during hospitalization.

Eggshells not only protect the contents of the egg from external damage but are also a key factor influencing consumer choice, second only to price. In the later stages of egg production, the incidence of pimpled eggs significantly increases, severely affecting the hatchability and food safety of the eggs. This study compares the differences in the uterine proteomes and metabolomes of hens producing pimpled eggs and those producing normal eggs, aiming to identify the proteins and metabolites that may play a crucial role in the formation of pimpled eggs.
