Physiological and Pathophysiological Relevance of the Anion Transporter Slc26a9 in Multiple Organs

Transepithelial Cl- and HCO3- transport is crucial for the function of all epithelia, and HCO3- is a biological buffer that maintains acid-base homeostasis. In most epithelia, a series of Cl-/HCO3- exchangers and Cl- channels that mediate Cl- absorption and HCO3- secretion have been detected in the...
