Exploring the physiological function of the brain-enriched Na+/H+ exchanger NHE5

In general, electrical activity in the brain is enhanced or suppressed by increases or decreases in pH respectively. Moreover, many components of the synaptic machinery are sensitive to changes in pH within the physiological range. Therefore, given this sensitivity to pH, it is likely that pH-regula...
