title: Identification of an amiloride sensitive Na+/H+ exchange system in brain synaptosomes.
abstract: This paper reports the presence of a Na+-uptake component in rat brain synaptosomes that is coupled to H+-efflux as monitored from the acidification of the extrasynaptosomal space. This exchange mechanism is inhibited by amiloride and two of its more potent derivatives: dimethylamiloride and ethylisopropylamiloride.
