Dibona D, Civan M
J Membr Biol . 2013 Nov; 7(1):267-74. PMID: 24177510
Vasopressin has been noted to increase the size of the intercellular spaces of toad bladder epithelium even in the absence of an osmotic gradient. The present studies demonstrate that the...

Dibona D, Civan M, Leaf A
J Membr Biol . 2013 Nov; 1(1):79-91. PMID: 24174043
Phase and electron micrographs of toad bladders were obtained following dilution of bathing media in the presence and absence of vasopressin. Dilution of the mucosal medium alone resulted in no...

Macknight A, Leaf A, Civan M
J Membr Biol . 2013 Nov; 6(2):127-37. PMID: 24173388
Isolated sheets of epithelial cells as well as epithelial cells scraped from paired hemibladders mounted in chambers both showed significant increases in water, sodium and chloride contents after exposure to...

Macknight A, Dibona D, Leaf A, Civan M
J Membr Biol . 2013 Nov; 6(2):108-26. PMID: 24173387
Two methods are described by which epithelial cells from toad urinary bladders can be obtained for analysis of their intracellular water and electrolyte contents. In the first, a method similar...

Yonath J, Civan M
J Membr Biol . 2013 Nov; 5(4):366-85. PMID: 24173165
Vasopressin stimulates Na(+) transport across toad bladder largely or entirely by decreasing the resistance to Na(+) entry into the transporting epithelial cells. Therefore, the hormone should induce proportional changes in...

Do C, Civan M
Acta Physiol (Oxf) . 2006 Jun; 187(1-2):345-52. PMID: 16734771
Aqueous humour is secreted by the ciliary epithelium comprising pigmented and non-pigmented cell layers facing the stroma and aqueous humour respectively. Net chloride secretion likely limits the rate of aqueous...

Karl M, Fleischhauer J, Stamer W, Peterson-Yantorno K, Mitchell C, Stone R, et al.
Am J Physiol Cell Physiol . 2004 Dec; 288(4):C784-94. PMID: 15590899
Intraocular pressure is directly dependent on aqueous humor flow into, and resistance to flow out of, the eye. Adenosine has complex effects on intraocular pressure. Stimulation of A1 and A2A...

Do C, Civan M
J Membr Biol . 2004 Sep; 200(1):1-13. PMID: 15386155
The aqueous humor is formed by the bilayered ciliary epithelium. The pigmented ciliary epithelium (PE) faces the stroma and the nonpigmented ciliary epithelium (NPE) contacts the aqueous humor. Cl(-) secretion...

Fleischhauer J, Mitchell C, Stamer W, Karl M, Peterson-Yantorno K, Civan M
J Membr Biol . 2003 Jul; 193(2):121-36. PMID: 12879160
A(1) adenosine receptors (ARs) reduce, and A(2)ARs increase intraocular pressure, partly by differentially altering resistance to aqueous humor outflow. It is unknown whether the opposing effects of A(1)AR and A(2)AR...

Fleischhauer J, Mitchell C, Peterson-Yantorno K, Coca-Prados M, Civan M
Am J Physiol Cell Physiol . 2001 Oct; 281(5):C1614-23. PMID: 11600425
Purines regulate intraocular pressure. Adenosine activates Cl(-) channels of nonpigmented ciliary epithelial cells facing the aqueous humor, enhancing secretion. Tamoxifen and ATP synergistically activate Cl(-) channels of pigmented ciliary epithelial...
