Abstract:
:Intracellular pH was measured with the pH-sensitive fluorescent probe BCECF in spinal cord neurones cultured from rat embryos. At an external pH of 7.3, the average steady-state pHi was 7.18 +/- 0.03 (SEM, n = 97) and 7.02 +/- 0.01 (n = 221) in HEPES-buffered and in bicarbonate-buffered medium, respectively. In both external media, pHi was strongly dependent on external pH (pHe). In HEPES-buffered medium, pHi recovery following an acid load induced by transient application of ammonium required external Na+ and was inhibited by amiloride, indicating the presence of a Na+/H+ exchange. Na(+)- and HCO3(-)-dependent, DIDS-sensitive alkalinizing mechanisms also contributed to pHi regulation in CO2/bicarbonate-buffered medium. The presence of an electrogenic Na(+)-HCO3- cotransporter was confirmed by the alkalinizing effect of KCl application. The fact that pHi is lower in CO2/bicarbonate- than in HEPES-buffered medium and the alkalinization observed upon suppression of external Cl- suggest that the acidifying Cl-/HCO3- transporter plays an important role in defining pHi.
