... ; Jentsch et al., 2005 ). In mammals, chloride channels are important for transepithelial chloride transport in osmoregulatory organs ( Devuyst and Guggino, 2002 ). Excellent osmoregulatory ability is crucial for euryhaline teleosts living in hyper- and hyposmotic environments. The apical chloride channel...
