| Abstract | Exposure to CO2 acidifies the cytosol of mitochondria-rich cells in turtle bladder epithelium. The result of the decrease in pH in these, the acid-secreting cells of the epithelium, is a transient increase in cell calcium, which causes exocytosis of vesicles containing proton- translocating ATPase. Because mitochondria-rich cells have rapid luminal membrane turnover, we were able to identify single mitochondria- rich cells by their endocytosis of rhodamine-tagged albumin. Using fluorescence emission of 5,6-carboxyfluorescein at two excitation wavelengths, we measured cell pH in these identified mitochondria-rich cells and found that although the cell pH fell, it recovered within 5 min despite continuous exposure to CO2. This pH recovery also occurred at the same rate in Na+-free media. However, pH recovery did not occur when luminal pH was 5.5, a condition under which the H+-pump does not function, suggesting that recovery of cell pH is due to the luminally located H+ ATPase. Chelation of extracellular calcium by EGTA prevented the CO2-induced rise in cell calcium measured with the intracellular fluorescent dyes Quin 2 or Fura 2 and also prevented recovery of cell pH. When the change in cell calcium was buffered by loading the cells with high concentrations of Quin 2, the CO2-induced decrease in pH did not return back to basal levels. We had found previously that buffering intracellular calcium transients prevented CO2-stimulated exocytosis. Further, we show here that the increased H+ current in voltage-clamped turtle bladders, which is directly proportional to the number of H+- pump-containing vesicles that fuse with the luminal membrane, was significantly reduced in calcium-depleted bladders. These results suggest that pH regulation in these acid-secreting cells occurs by calcium-dependent exocytosis of vesicles containing proton pumps, whose subsequent turnover restores the cell pH to its initial levels. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
