Description:
Our study addresses selected parameters of rat erythrocyte ion transport (Na+-K+ pump, Na+-K+-2Cl- cotransport, and passive cation fluxes) after acute or chronic hypoxia exposure. We did not find any significant change of ion transport after acute hypoxia. However, chronic hypoxia could modify ion transport because the affinity of Na+-K+ pump for intracellular Na+seems to be decreased.
