Simulation of Cl- secretion in epithelial tissues: New methodology estimating activity of electro-neutral Cl- transporter
Transcellular Cl- secretion is, in general, mediated by two steps; 1) the entry step of Cl- into the cytosolic space from the basolateral space across the basolateral membrane by Cl- transporters, such as Na+-K+-2Cl- cotransporter (NKCC1, an isoform of NKCC), and 2) the releasing step of Cl- from th...
