Effect of acyclovir on thermal stress-induced herpesvirus reactivation.

abstract：:A model for endothelial transport is updated to include recent evidence. We discuss electrolyte movements based on a Na+-K+ ATPase, a Na+-H+ exchanger, a Na+-HCO3 coupler, a Cl- -HCO-3 exchanger, a K+-Cl-coupler, and K+ and anion channels. We discuss near-isotonic transport of fluid on the basis of recent findings of ...
