Gill epithelial cells

Ion transport in very dilute freshwater environments can also be problematic from the perspective of electrochemical theory. For example, electrochemical theory predicts that Na+ entry through epithelial channels will stop when the external Na+ is <0.1 mmol Na+ (typical of many freshwaters), given intracellular Na+ concentrations of 10-20 mmol 1 1 in gill epithelial cells [83], Thus elevation of Na+ concentrations at the epithelial surface (adsorption) becomes critical to ion-channel function and Na+ uptake into the cells [50], Alternatively, we might postulate other transporters coupled to the Na+ channel to drive uptake (e.g. H+ slippage [84] on the H+-ATPase).

Serosal membrane The cell membrane of the epithelial cell adjacent to the blood (serosal) side of the tissue. Sometimes also called the basolateral membrane in some gill and intestinal epithelia, because anatomical folds of the serosal membrane may extend laterally along the sides of the epithelial cells.

In experimental assay systems, free fatty acids (FFAs) destroy red blood cells and show hemolytic activity (39). Free fatty acids, especially the highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFAs) contained in the raphidophyte flagellates, have been implicated as one of the causative substances that damage the epithelial tissues of the fish gills.
