title: Further evidence for coupling of sodium and proton movements in dog red blood cells.
abstract: Using 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonate (DIDS) and tributyltin the sodium transport pathway activated by shrinkage in dog red blood cells is shown to behave as expected for an electroneutral Na+/H+ exchanger. When the driving forces for sodium and protons are equal, flow through the pathway stops. Amiloride inhibits the shrinkage-induced Na+/H+ exchange.
