Özet

Background. Maintenance of enterocyte activity during extracellular acidosis requires functional sodium/proton exchangers (NHE), which are present at both basolateral and apical surfaces. Necrotizing enterocolitis is characterized by systemic hypoperfusion, metabolic acidosis, and the apical to basolateral translocation of endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide [LPS]). We hypothesized that LPS differentially impairs NHE activity at the basolateral or apical domains of enterocytes, leading to cellular acidification, and explored the mechanisms involved.
