It is concluded that Ca2+ transport across the basolateral membranes of the ionocytes in killifish skin is mediated for the major part by a Na+/Ca(2+)-exchange mechanism that is driven by the (transmembrane) Na+ gradient established by Na+/K(+)-ATPase. The conclusion is based, firstly, on the biochemical evidence for the presence of a Na+/Ca(2+)-exchanger next to the Ca(2+)-ATPase in the basolateral membranes of killifish gill cells. Secondly, the transcellular Ca2+ uptake measured in an Ussing chamber setup was 85% and 80% reduced in freshwater (FW) and SW (SW) opercular membranes, respectively, as the Na+ gradient across the basolateral membrane was directly or indirectly (by ouabain) reduced. Thapsigargin or dibutyryl-cAMP/IBMX in SW opercular membranes reduced Ca2+ influx to 46%, comparable to the effects seen in FW membranes [reduction to 56%; Marshall et al. 1995a]. Basal Ca2+ influx across the opercular membrane was 48% lower in membranes from fish adapted to SW than in membranes from fish adapted to FW. Branchial Na+/K(+)-ATPase activity was two times higher in SW adapted fish.
