Regulation of ion transport by pH and [HCO<sub>3</sub><sup>−</sup>] in isolated gills of the crab<i>Neohelice</i>(<i>Chasmagnathus</i>)<i>granulata</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Posterior isolated gills of Neohelice (Chasmagnathus) granulatus were symmetrically perfused with hemolymph-like saline of varying [HCO3-] and pH. Elevating [HCO3-] in the saline from 2.5 to 12.5 mmol/l (pH 7.75 in both cases) induced a significant increase in the transepithelial potential difference (Vte), a measure of ion transport. The elevation in [HCO3-] also induced a switch from acid secretion (-43.7 +/- 22.5 microequiv.kg(-1).h(-1)) in controls to base secretion (84.7 +/- 14.4 microequiv.kg(-1).h(-1)). The HCO3(-)-induced Vte increase was inhibited by basolateral acetazolamide (200 micromol/l), amiloride (1 mmol/l), and ouabain (5 mmol/l) but not by bafilomycin (100 nmol/l). The Vte response to HCO3(-) did not take place in Cl(-)-free conditions; however, it was unaffected by apical SITS (2 mmol/l) or DIDS (1 mmol/l). A decrease in pH from 7.75 to 7.45 pH units in the perfusate also induced a significant increase in Vte, which was matched by a net increase in acid secretion of 67.8 +/- 18.4 microequiv kg(-1) h(-1). This stimulation was sensitive to basolateral acetazolamide, bafilomycin, DIDS, and Na+-free conditions, but it still took place in Cl(-)-free saline. Therefore, the cellular response to low pH is different from the HCO3(-)-stimulated response. We also report V-H+-ATPase- and Na+-K+-ATPase-like immunoreactivity in gill sections for the first time in this crab. Our results suggest that carbonic anhydrase (CA), basolateral Na+/H+ exchangers and Na+-K+-ATPase and apical anion exchangers participate in the HCO3(-)-stimulated response, while CA, apical V-H+-ATPase and basolateral HCO3(-)-dependent cotransporters mediate the response to low pH.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
