“…A role for Na + ,Cl-or Na +,K + ,2CI-cotransport in cell volume regulation has, in addition to avian red blood cells, Ehrlich cells, and frog skin epithelial cells (see above), also been established in red blood cells from rat [56] and ferret [226] and in L cells [86], simian virus-transformed 3T3 cells [15], chick cardiac cells [80], astrocytes from rat cerebral cortex [156], and the apical membrane of rabbit kidney medullary thick ascending limb of Henle's loop (see review by Eve10ff and Warnock [70]). (It may be noted that the Na +,K + ,2CI-cotransport system in red blood cells from other species, e.g., humans [57], is volume insensitive.)…”
