The shark rectal gland: a model for the active transport of chloride.

The rectal gland of the spiny dogfish, Squalus acanthias, provides an easily studied model of active chloride transport powered indirectly by Na-K-ATPase. Co-transport of sodium with chloride can be demonstrated in membrane vesicles isolated from basolateral membranes of the gland. Chloride secretio...
