Na<sup>+</sup>/H<sup>+</sup> exchangers in the human eccrine sweat duct
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Using an anti-NHE1 antibody, we demonstrate the presence of a Na+/H+ exchanger of isoform 1 (NHE1) in the human eccrine sweat duct. A strong staining was observed at the basolateral membrane of the outer cell layer (NHE1basal), at the junction between inner and outer cells layers (NHE1inter), and along the lateral membranes (NHE1later) of all cells of the duct. At the luminal membrane, no staining was demonstrated either for NHE1 or NHE3. To investigate Na+/H+ mediated proton transport, straight sweat duct portions were isolated and perfused in vitro under HCO3-free conditions. In the presence of basolateral 5-ethyl-N-isopropyl amiloride (EIPA), an acidification of 0.29 +/- 0.03 pH units was observed, whereas no effect was observed with luminal EIPA. Bath sodium removal generated a stronger acidification (0.41 +/- 0.09 pH units). Removal of luminal sodium (in the absence or presence of basolateral EIPA), or low luminal chloride, led to an alkalinization, presumably due to a decrease in intracellular sodium, strongly suggesting functional activity of NHE1inter. We therefore conclude that in the sweat duct, NHE1 plays a major role in intracellular pH regulation.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
