The effects of temperature upon the adrenergic Na+/H+ exchange of rainbow trout erythrocytes have been studied in vitro. The initial rates of H+ ejection and of increase of intracellular Na+ [( Na+]i) in adrenergically stimulated cells were highly temperature-dependent, with apparent Arrhenius activation energies of 112.8 +/- 10.0 (mean +/- S.D., N = 4) and 84.1 +/- 3.0 kJ mol-1 (N = 3), respectively. The steady-state [Na+]i following stimulation decreased progressively with cooling, whilst the time required for [Na+]i to return to control values after removal of agonist was greatly increased. The change in intracellular pH resulting from adrenergic stimulation was reduced by cooling, such that at 4 degrees C adrenergic responses were barely measurable. The effect of temperature upon the steady-state [Na+]i and pHi was probably caused by a disparity in the temperature dependence of the transport mechanisms that contribute to the respective steady states.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D001692	Biological Transport	The movement of materials (including biochemical substances and drugs) through a biological system at the cellular level. The transport can be across cell membranes and epithelial layers. It also can occur within intracellular compartments and extracellular compartments.

D013696	Temperature	The property of objects that determines the direction of heat flow when they are placed in direct thermal contact. The temperature is the energy of microscopic motions (vibrational and translational) of the particles of atoms.	Temperatures
D014337	Trout	Various fish of the family SALMONIDAE, usually smaller than salmon. They are mostly restricted to cool clear freshwater. Some are anadromous. They are highly regarded for their handsome colors, rich well-flavored flesh, and gameness as an angling fish. The genera Salvelinus, Salmo, and ONCORHYNCHUS have been introduced virtually throughout the world.	Chars,Salvelinus,Char
