G. Prime et al., REVERSE TRANSCRIPTASE-POLYMERASE CHAIN-REACTION STUDY OF ANION EXCHANGER-2 IN CANINE TISSUES AND DIFFERENT MADIN-DARBY CANINE KIDNEY-CELL TYPES, Kidney international, 54, 1998, pp. 171-173
Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) of mRNA from
canine large intestine, skeletal muscle, pancreas, kidney, and spleen
and from cultured wild-type and C7 and C11 Madin-Darby canine kidney (
MDCK) cells revealed considerable variation in anion exchanger (AE)1 a
nd AE2 mRNA levels between the tissues. Similar high levels of AE2 mRN
A were detected in all the MDCK cell populations. AE2 in MDCK cells is
probably the basolateral Cl-/HCO3- exchanger common to the principal
and beta-intercalated cells.
