Hypertonic stress increases NaK ATPase, taurine, and myoinositol in human lens and retinal pigment epithelial cultures

Recent evidence suggests that taurine and myoinositol may serve as organic osmolytes in a number of cells, including lens and retinal pigment epithelia, but the mechanism for their increased accumulation in response to hypertonic stress is not known. To assess whether NaK ATPase contributed to the e...
