5-Hydroxytryptamine mediates the post-embolic increase in respiratory rate in anaesthetized rabbits.

abstract：:The hallmark of epithelial cells is their functional polarization. It is those membrane proteins that are distributed differentially, either to the apical or to the basal surface, that determine epithelial physiology. Such proteins will include 'pumps', 'channels' and 'carriers', and it is the functional interplay bet...
