Disturbed acid-base transport: an emerging cause of hypertension
Genome-wide association studies and physiological investigations have linked alterations in acid-base transporters to hypertension. Accordingly, Na+-coupled HCO3--transporters, Na+/H+-exchangers, and anion-exchangers have emerged as putative mechanistic components in blood pressure disturbances. Eve...
