Localization of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase in silkworm brain: a possible mechanism for protection of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase from Ca(2+)

In mammalian blood, the Na(+) concentration is higher than the K(+) concentration, whereas in hemolymph of lepidopterous insects, the K(+) concentration is higher than the Na(+) concentration. Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase regulates Na(+) and K(+) concentrations in mammalian blood. Therefore, the absence of Na(...
