Prior studies of the elasmobranch rectal gland have demonstrated that feeding induces profound and rapid up regulation of the gland's ability to secrete concentrated NaCl solutions and the metabolic capacity to support this highly ATP consuming process. We undertook the current study to attempt to determine the degree to which up regulation of mRNA transcription was involved in the gland's activation...
The rectal gland is the principal salt-secreting organ in elasmobranchs, yet its functional response to normal physiological variation (e.g., due to feeding, stress) has only recently been examined. To complement studies on acid-base, digestive, and osmoregulatory physiology in response to natural feeding, we investigated protein-level responses in the rectal gland of spiny dogfish (Squalus acanthias)...
