Divalent cations reduce the electrogenic transport of monovalent cations across rumen epithelium.
    Journal of comparative physiology. B, Biochemical, systemic, and environmental physiology, 2002, Volume: 172, Issue:7

    The rumen epithelium of sheep and goats showed an increase in short circuit current ( Isc) and transepithelial conductance (gt) upon mucosal removal of divalent cations. A divalent-sensitive Isc and gt were present in Na+, K+ or Rb+ buffer, but nearly abolished in mucosal NMDG+ (N-methyl-D-glucamine) buffer. High K buffer, addition of BaCl2 or of ouabain on the serosal side also reduced or abolished the divalent-sensitive Isc. Mucosal Ca2+ was more potent in blocking Isc, but had the same potency as Mg2+ in blocking gt. A prolonged mucosal deprivation of Mg2+ ions increased gt, potential difference and basal as well as the Ca2+-sensitive Isc. Mucosal addition of Mg2+ had a smaller effect on gt after serosal preincubation with Ba. The data suggest that rumen epithelial cells exhibit an apical non-selective cation conductance, which permits the passage of monovalents in the mucosal absence of divalents. The development of a divalent-sensitive Isc in Na buffer requires Na+/K+ pumps and K+ recycling through Ba2+-sensitive K+ conductances on the basolateral side. This Isc is blocked by extracellular Ca2+ and both extracellular and intracellular Mg2+ ions. A prolonged deprivation of mucosal Mg2+ alone seems to affect intracellular Mg2+ in this Mg2+-absorbing tissue.

Polarized 86Rb+ effluxes in primary cultures of rabbit kidney proximal cells: role of calcium and hypotonicity.
    Biochimica et biophysica acta, 1990, Jul-09, Volume: 1026, Issue:1

    Isolated proximal cells from rabbit kidney were seeded on collagen-coated permeable supports. After 8 days, the cultured cells became organized as a confluent monolayer. The proximal origin of the monolayer was confirmed by enzymatic, immunological, electrical and electron microscopical studies. The epithelia exhibited a morphological polarity that allowed for measurements of effluxes across the apical or the basolateral membranes. 86Rb was used as an isotopic tracer to indicate potassium movements. The 86Rb+ efflux across the basolateral face was 1.93-times that across the apical face, and both effluxes were pH dependent. Apical and basolateral 86Rb+ effluxes increased when the Ca2+ ionophore ionomycin (3 microM) was applied and when monolayers were exposed to a hypotonic medium. A pharmacological study revealed that BaCl2 (5 mM), tetraethylammonium (TEA, 20 mM) and Leiurus quinquestriatus hebraeus scorpion venom (from which charybdotoxin is extracted) abolished both ionomycin and hypotonically-stimulated effluxes, whereas apamin had no significant effect on the hypotonically-stimulated 86Rb+ efflux. This stimulated efflux was also abolished when monolayers were preincubated with pertussis toxin, but did not decrease in a Ca2(+)-free medium.
