New publication: Jacelyn J. Shu et al. Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A

November 8, 2021

Jacelyn J. Shu, Rachael M. Heuer, Kelly D. Hannan, John D.Stieglitz, Daniel D. Benetti, Jodie L. Rummer, Martin Grosell, Colin J. Brauner. 2021. Enhanced oxygen unloading in two marine percomorph teleosts. Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology

Highlights

  • Enhanced O2 unloading due to RBC β-NHE short-circuiting has previously been shown in three salmonids
  • Cobia and mahi-mahi both possess rapidly activated red blood cell β-NHE, which is abolished by propranolol
  • A decrease in blood pH by 0.2 units may enhance O2 unloading in cobia by over 60% in cobia
  • These data provide further support for the hypothesis that enhanced O2 unloading may be a general trait among teleost
