Acid Base Status

The aim of this study was to characterize the dynamic changes in uterine fluid composition and acid-base status during shell calcification in the chicken. Uterine eggs at timed intervals were manually aborted and the accompanying fluid collected and analyzed for composition of osmolytes, enzymes, and acid-base parameters. Blood samples were analyzed for comparison. No considerable change in blood gases took place in relation to residence time of the calcifying egg in the uterus. A significant acidosis occurred at latter stages. Only minor changes were revealed in plasma osmotic and biochemical composition throughout egg calcification. In contrast, major changes were revealed in uterine fluid composition and acid-base status during calcification. The most prominent phenomenon was the sharp increase in CO2 partial pressure, from 82.2 Torr at 0 h to 132.8 Torr at 10 h. As bicarbonate concentration remained almost stable, fluid pH dropped from 7.412 to 7.250 within this stage. Uterine fluid sodium and chloride concentrations and osmolality dropped significantly in the course of calcification, whereas potassium concentration significantly increased. A sharp increase in glucose, calcium, and magnesium concentrations was measured in the early stages of calcification. These findings are discussed in relation to existing models for transport mechanisms of the uterine epithelial tissue. The comprehensive picture that emerges from the present study should enable future application in establishing a self-contained culturing system in vitro for studies of embryonic development.

Acid Base Status

HCO3- secretion by cortical collecting duct (CCD) occurs via beta-intercalated cells. In vitro CCD HCO3- secretion is modulated by both the in vivo acid-base status of the animal and by adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP). To investigate the mechanism of cAMP-induced HCO3- secretion, we measured intracellular pH (pHi) of individual beta-intercalated cells of CCDs dissected from alkali-loaded rabbits perfused in vitro. beta-Intercalated cells were identified by demonstrating the presence of an apical anion exchanger (cell alkalinization in response to removal of lumen Cl-). After 180 min of perfusion to permit decrease of endogenous cAMP, acute addition of 0.1 mM 8-bromo-cAMP or 1 microM isoproterenol to the bath caused a transient cellular alkalinization (> 0.20 pH units). In the symmetrical absence of either Na+, HCO3-, or Cl-, cAMP produced no change in pHi. Basolateral dihydrogen 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (0.1 mM) for 15 min before cAMP addition also prevented this alkalinization. In contrast to the response of cells from alkali-loaded rabbits, addition of basolateral cAMP to CCDs dissected from normal rabbits resulted in an acidification of beta-intercalated cells (approximately 0.20 pH units). The present studies demonstrate the importance of the in vivo acid-base status of the animal in the regulation of CCD HCO3- secretion by beta-intercalated cells. The results identify the possible existence of a previously unrecognized Na(+)-dependent Cl-/HCO3- exchanger on the basolateral membrane of beta-intercalated cells in alkali-loaded rabbits.

Acid Base Status

In this study, I examine the effect of temperature on haemolymph acid-base status in vivo and in vitro in the two-striped grasshopper Melanoplus bivittatus. Melanoplus bivittatus experience wide (up to 40 °C) diurnal body temperature fluctuations in the field, but maintain body temperature relatively constant during sunny days by behavioural thermoregulation. Haemolymph pH was statistically constant (7.12) between 10 and 25°C, but decreased by −0.017 units °C− from 25 to 40°C. Relative alkalinity and fractional protein dissociation were conserved only at body temperatures at which feeding and locomotory activity occur, above 20°C. Haemolymph total CO2 (Ctot) increased from 10 to 20°C and decreased from 20 to 40°C. Haemolymph Pco2 increased from 10 to 20°C and was statistically constant between 20 and 40°C. Carbonic acid pKapp in haemolymph was 6.122 at 35°C, and decreased with temperature by −0.0081 units°C−1. Haemolymph buffer value averaged −35mequivl−1pHunit−1. Haemolymph pH changes with temperature were small (less than −0.004 units°C−1) in vitro at constant Pco2. Therefore, passive physicochemical effects cannot account for the pattern of acid-base regulation in vivo. The temperature shift from 10 to 20°C was accompanied by a net addition of 4.2-6.2 mmoll−1 of bicarbonate equivalents to the haemolymph. The temperature shift from 20 to 40°C was accompanied by a net removal of 10–14 mmoll−1 of bicarbonate equivalents from the haemolymph. Haemolymph acid-base regulation in vivo during temperature changes is dominated by active variation of bicarbonate equivalents rather than by changes in Pco2 as observed for most other air-breathers.
