Monopterus albus, a swamp eel inhabiting the freshwaters of South East Asia, relies on an extensive vascularisation of the buccal cavity, pharynx and anterior oesophagus for gas exchange, while the gills are much reduced. In the present study we desc

Giraffes – the tallest extant animals on Earth – are renowned for their high central arterial blood pressure, which is necessary to secure brain perfusion. The pressure which may exceed 300 mmHg has historically been attributed to an exceptionall

Excitation‐ and β2‐agonist‐induced activation of the Na+−K+pump in rat soleus muscle

In rat skeletal muscle, Na(+)-K(+) pump activity increases dramatically in response to excitation (up to 20-fold) or beta(2)-agonists (2-fold), leading to a reduction in intracellular Na(+). This study examines the time course of these effects and wh
