The immunohistolocalization and gene expression of carbonic anhydrase (CA) isoenzymes CA-II and CA-VI in the canine lower airways and lung were examined using specific canine CA-II and CA-VI antisera and the RT-PCR method. Laryngeal, tracheal and bronchial epithelia, serous acinar and bronchiolar secretory cells and pulmonary great alveolar cells showed immunopositive reactions to anti-CA-II and anti-CA-VI antisera. However, all mucous cells showed immunonegative reactions. The physiological roles of CA-II and CA-VI in the lower airways and lung may involve the maintenance of pH balance and the protection of mucosal surfaces against the acidic milieu.
利用特异性犬CA-II和CA-VI抗血清及逆转录-聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)方法,检测了碳酸酐酶(CA)同工酶CA-II和CA-VI在犬下呼吸道和肺中的免疫定位及基因表达。喉、气管和支气管上皮、浆液性腺泡和细支气管分泌细胞以及肺大肺泡细胞对抗CA-II和抗CA-VI抗血清呈免疫阳性反应。然而,所有黏液细胞均呈免疫阴性反应。CA-II和CA-VI在下呼吸道和肺中的生理作用可能涉及维持pH平衡以及保护黏膜表面免受酸性环境的影响。
