Abstract
Bone defects are a prevalent clinical issue that presents a serious medical challenge. Bone tissue engineering (BTE) has emerged as an effective approach for treating large bone defects. Hydrogels, as hydrophilic three-dimensional polymers, are recognized as suitable material for BTE due to their excellent biocompatibility and degradability. However, the submicron and nanoporous structure of hydrogels limits the survival of osteoblasts, hindering bone tissue regeneration. In recent years, 3D printing technology has attracted appreciable attention. The use of hydrogels as 3D-printed ink facilitates the printing of hydrogels in any desired shape, enabling personalized or more complex requirements. This article provides a systematic review of the latest applications of 3D-printed hydrogels in BTE. These hydrogels serve as a multifunctional platform for the next generation technology in treating bone defects. The advantages and limitations of 3D-printed hydrogels in BTE are discussed, and future research directions are explored. This review can form the basis for future hydrogel design.

Abstract
Ageing is characterized by degeneration and loss of function across multiple physiological systems. To study the mechanisms and consequences of ageing, several metrics have been proposed in a hierarchical model, including biological, phenotypic and functional ageing. In particular, phenotypic ageing and interconnected changes in multiple physiological systems occur in all ageing individuals over time. Recently, phenotypic age, a new ageing measure, was proposed to capture morbidity and mortality risk across diverse subpopulations in US cohort studies. Although phenotypic age has been widely used, it may overlook the complex relationships among phenotypic biomarkers. Considering the correlation structure of these phenotypic biomarkers, we proposed a composite phenotype analysis (CPA) strategy to analyse 71 biomarkers from 2074 individuals in the Rugao Longitudinal Ageing Study. CPA grouped these biomarkers into 18 composite phenotypes according to their internal correlation, and these composite phenotypes were mostly consistent with prior findings. In addition, compared with prior findings, this strategy exhibited some different yet important implications. For example, the indicators of kidney and cardiovascular functions were tightly connected, implying internal interactions. The composite phenotypes were further verified through associations with functional metrics of ageing, including disability, depression, cognitive function and frailty. Compared to age alone, these composite phenotypes had better predictive performances for functional metrics of ageing. In summary, CPA could reveal the hidden relationships of physiological systems and identify the links between physiological systems and functional ageing metrics, thereby providing novel insights into potential mechanisms underlying human ageing.

Abstract
The major transmembrane protein of the red blood cell, known as band 3, AE1, and SLC4A1, has two main functions: 1) catalysis of Cl-/HCO3- exchange, one of the steps in CO2 excretion; 2) anchoring the membrane skeleton. This review summarizes the 150 year history of research on red cell anion transport and band 3 as an experimental system for studying membrane protein structure and ion transport mechanisms. Important early findings were that red cell Cl- transport is a tightly coupled 1:1 exchange and band 3 is labeled by stilbenesulfonate derivatives that inhibit anion transport. Biochemical studies showed that the protein is dimeric or tetrameric (paired dimers) and that there is one stilbenedisulfonate binding site per subunit of the dimer. Transport kinetics and inhibitor characteristics supported the idea that the transporter acts by an alternating access mechanism with intrinsic asymmetry. The sequence of band 3 cDNA provided a framework for detailed study of protein topology and amino acid residues important for transport. The identification of genetic variants produced insights into the roles of band 3 in red cell abnormalities and distal renal tubular acidosis. The publication of the membrane domain crystal structure made it possible to propose concrete molecular models of transport. Future research directions include improving our understanding of the transport mechanism at the molecular level and of the integrative relationships among band 3, hemoglobin, carbonic anhydrase, and gradients (both transmembrane and subcellular) of HCO3-, Cl-, O2, CO2, pH, and NO metabolites during pulmonary and systemic capillary gas exchange.

Abstract
The Amur ide (Leuciscus waleckii) is a cyprinid fish that is widely distributed in Northeast Asia. The Lake Dali Nur population inhabits one of the most extreme aquatic environments on Earth, with an alkalinity up to 50 mmol/L (pH 9.6), thus providing an exceptional model with which to characterize the mechanisms of genomic evolution underlying adaptation to extreme environments. Here, we developed the reference genome assembly for L. waleckii from Lake Dali Nur. Intriguingly, we identified unusual expanded long terminal repeats (LTRs) with higher nucleotide substitution rates than in many other teleosts, suggesting their more recent insertion into the L. waleckii genome. We also identified expansions in genes encoding egg coat proteins and natriuretic peptide receptors, possibly underlying the adaptation to extreme environmental stress. We further sequenced the genomes of 10 additional individuals from freshwater and 18 from Lake Dali Nur populations, and we detected a total of 7.6 million SNPs from both populations. In a genome scan and comparison of these two populations, we identified a set of genomic regions under selective sweeps that harbor genes involved in ion homoeostasis, acid-base regulation, unfolded protein response, reactive oxygen species elimination, and urea excretion. Our findings provide comprehensive insight into the genomic mechanisms of teleost fish that underlie their adaptation to extreme alkaline environments.

Abstract
During intense exercise in horses the transvascular fluid flux in the pulmonary circulation (Jv-a) represents 4% of cardiac output (Q). This fluid flux has been attributed to an increase in pulmonary transmural hydrostatic forces, increases in perfused microvascular surface area, and reversible alterations in capillary permeability under conditions of high flow and pressure. Erythrocyte fluid efflux, however, accounts for a significant fraction of Jv-a. In the lung the Jacobs-Stewart cycle occurs with diffusion of CO2 into alveolar space with possible accompanying chloride (Cl-) and water movement from the erythrocyte directly into the pulmonary interstitium. We hypothesised that inhibition of carbonic anhydrase in erythrocytes inhibits the Jacobs-Stewart cycle and attenuates Jv-a. Five horses were exercised on a treadmill until fatigue without (control) and with acetazolamide treatment (30 mg kg(-1) 30 min before exercise). Erythrocyte fluid efflux, plasma fluid flux across the lung and Jv-a were calculated using haemoglobin, haematocrit, plasma protein and Q. Fluid fluxes were used to calculate erythrocyte, plasma and whole blood Cl- fluxes across the lung. Cardiac output was not different between control and acetazolamide treatment. During exercise erythrocyte fluid efflux and Jv-a increased in control (9.3±3.3 and 11.0±4.4 l min(-1), respectively) and was higher than after acetazolamide treatment (3.8±1.6 and 1.2±1.2 l min(-1), respectively) (P<0.05). Plasma fluid flux did not change from rest in control and decreased after acetazolamide treatment (-4.5±1.5 l min(-1)) (P<0.05). Erythrocyte Cl- flux increased during exercise in control and after acetazolamide treatment (P<0.05). During exercise plasma Cl- flux across the lung did not change in control; however, it increased with acetazolamide treatment (P=0.0001). During exercise whole blood Cl- flux increased across the lung in control (P<0.05) but not after acetazolamide treatment. The results indicate that Jv-a in the lung is dependent on the Jacobs-Stewart cycle and mostly independent of transmural hydrostatic forces. It also appears that Jv-a is mediated by Cl- and water egress from erythrocytes directly into the interstitium without transit through plasma.

Abstract
Carbonic anhydrase (CA) catalyzes the interconversion of CO(2) and HCO(3)(-). Intracellular (extravascular) and intravascular (extracellular) CA has been identified and localized in the lungs of reptiles and mammals. Less information is known, however, on the presence of intravascular CA in the lungs of amphibians and avians. In the present study, perfusion studies were used to compare the catalytic activity of pulmonary intravascular CA in reptiles and mammals. In addition, SDS-resistant CA activity was examined in microsomal fractions prepared from gill/lung tissue from representative animals in each vertebrate class. Finally, the CNO(-) sensitivity of the microsomal CA activity was compared. No SDS-resistant CA activity was found in gill microsomal fractions of several fish species. In contrast, the data suggest that SDS-resistant, intravascular pulmonary CA activity is present in air-breathing vertebrates with vastly differing lung morphologies and that the kinetics of inhibition is remarkably comparable between the vertebrate classes.

Abstract
CO(2) produced within skeletal muscle has to leave the body finally via ventilation by the lung. To get there, CO(2) diffuses from the intracellular space into the convective transport medium blood with the two compartments, plasma and erythrocytes. Within the body, CO(2) is transported in three different forms: physically dissolved, as HCO(3)(-), or as carbamate. The relative contribution of these three forms to overall transport is changing along this elimination pathway. Thus the kinetics of the interchange have to be considered. Carbonic anhydrase accelerates the hydration/dehydration reaction between CO(2), HCO(3)(-), and H(+). In skeletal muscle, various isozymes of carbonic anhydrase are localized within erythrocytes but are also bound to the capillary wall, thus accessible to plasma; bound to the sarcolemma, thus producing catalytic activity within the interstitial space; and associated with the sarcoplasmic reticulum. In some fiber types, carbonic anhydrase is also present in the sarcoplasm. In exercising skeletal muscle, lactic acid contributes huge amounts of H(+) and by these affects the relative contribution of the three forms of CO(2). With a theoretical model, the complex interdependence of reactions and transport processes involved in CO(2) exchange was analyzed.

Abstract
Turtles possess a significant postcapillary CO2 partial pressure (PCO2) disequilibrium between arterial blood and alveolar gas. There are several possible explanations for this blood disequilibrium including a slow rate of erythrocyte physiological anion shift (Cl-/HCO3- exchange) or inaccessibility of plasma HCO3- to red blood cell or pulmonary carbonic anhydrase. The present study characterized the contribution of erythrocyte anion exchange and pulmonary and erythrocyte carbonic anhydrase to CO2 excretion and, hence, to postcapillary CO2-HCO3--H+ equilibration in blood-perfused turtle (Pseudemys scripta) lungs. Turtle lungs perfused in situ with red cell suspensions containing inhibitors of erythrocyte anion exchange and/or pulmonary and red cell carbonic anhydrase produced significant postcapillary blood PCO2 and pH disequilibria, while no disequilibria were measured when lungs were perfused with control red cell suspensions. Erythrocyte anion exchange and pulmonary intravascular carbonic anhydrase contributed 11 % and 9 %, respectively, to CO2 excretion during single-pass perfusion, whereas red cell and pulmonary carbonic anhydrase contributed 32 % to the measured CO2 excretion. The lack of a measurable PCO2 disequilibrium during perfusion with control erythrocyte suspensions in this study suggests that alternative mechanisms may be responsible for the arterial-lung PCO2 disequilibrium measured during breathing or diving episodes in turtles.

Abstract
The disequilibrium pH is defined as any discrepancy between the measured pH and the pH which would exist if CO2-HCO3-H+ reactions were at equilibrium. Measurement of the disequilibrium pH can be used to assess the status of CO2-HCO3--H+ reactions and, in combination with carbonic anhydrase (CA) or CA inhibitor treatments, may also be used to localize CA. Renal physiologists have used disequilibrium experiments to determine that HCO3- reabsorption in the kidney tubule occurs via proton secretion, and that CA activity is available to ultrafiltrate CO2-HCO3-H+ reactions in the proximal convoluted tubule, but not the distal tubule. Disequilibrium experiments were also used in investigating the availability of CA to CO2-HCO3--H+ reactions in water at the fish gill; the opposing results obtained in two studies have not yet been resolved. Respiratory physiologists have used the disequilibrium technique in vivo and with saline-perfused preparations to assess the availability of CA to plasma CO2-HCO3--H+ reactions following gas exchange. Saline-perfused preparations enable direct localization of CA activity, while in vivo measurements encompass the numerous factors affecting CO2-HCO3--H+ equilibration in a multi-phase solution. Given the many organs in which membrane-bound CA activity has now been identified, the usefulness of the disequilibrium pH technique has increased beyond its original applications in renal and pulmonary physiology.

Abstract
Inhibition of red cell carbonic anhydrase (CA) activity resulted in the rapid development of a respiratory acidosis (0.25 pH depression within 15 min post-injection) in the blood of trout. In the lamprey, however, the onset of the respiratory acidosis was delayed and its magnitude was less (0.18 pH depression at 6 h post-injection). Erythrocyte pH of both species decreased by about 0.12 units by 1 h after CA inhibition. These data, combined with the lack of rapid anion (Cl-/HCO3-) exchange in the red cells of agnathans but not in other lower vertebrates, support the hypotheses that (1) the majority of total CO2 in lamprey is transported within the erythrocyte, and (2) the limiting step in the evolution of a functioning Jacobs-Stewart cycle, and thus the evolution of the common mechanism of systemic CO2 transport in vertebrate blood, was the incorporation of the band-3 anion exchange protein into the membrane of the red cell.

Abstract
An extracorporeal blood circulation and a stopflow technique were used to examine the acid-base status of arterial blood in the rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss. Arterial blood was routed from the coeliac artery through an external circuit in which pH (pHa), partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) and partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) were monitored continuously. The stopflow condition was imposed by turning off the pump which drove the external loop. A radioisotopic CO2 excretion assay was performed on blood samples collected periodically to evaluate plasma carbonic anhydrase (CA) activity and hence red blood cell (rbc) lysis. An acid-base disequilibrium was found in the post-branchial blood; pHa increased by 0.04-0.06 units, and PaCO2 by 0.03-0.10 Torr, during the stopflow period. The disequilibrium appeared to arise primarily from the slow (uncatalyzed) rate of plasma H2CO3 dehydration. This was confirmed by the intra-arterial injection of bovine CA (22 mg kg-1) prior to the stopflow; the disequilibrium was abolished. When the CA inhibitor acetazolamide (30 mg kg-1) was injected, a negative pH disequilibrium of 0.04 units, accompanied by a rise in PaCO2 of 0.57 Torr, was observed during the stopflow. These results can be explained by the acetazolamide-induced inhibition of rbc CA, which leads to continuing rbc CO2 "excretion" in the post-branchial blood.

Abstract
Lung carbonic anhydrase (CA) permits rapid pH responses when changes in regional ventilation or perfusion alter airway and alveolar PCO2. These pH changes affect airway and vascular resistances and lung compliance to optimize the balance of regional ventilation (VA) and perfusion (Q) in the lung. To test the hypothesis that these or other CA-dependent mechanisms contribute to VA/Q matching, we administered acetazolamide (25 mg/kg intravenously) to six anesthetized and paralyzed dogs and measured VA/Q relationships before and after CA inhibition by the multiple inert gas elimination technique. Four other groups of dogs were studied to control for possible confounding effects of time under anesthesia and nonselective CA inhibition by acetazolamide: (a) saline placebo as a control for duration of anesthesia, (b) 4% CO2 inhalation to mimic systemic CO2 retention, (c) 1 mg/kg benzolamide (a selective renal CA inhibitor) or 0.5 meq/kg HCl to mimic systemic metabolic acidosis, and (d) 500 mg/kg 4,4'-dinitrostilbene-2,2'-disulfonate (an inhibitor of red cell band 3 protein) to mimic the respiratory acidosis arising from an intracapillary block to rapid mobilization of plasma HCO3- in CO2 exchange. Acetazolamide increased VA/Q mismatch and reduced arterial PO2 measured at equilibrium but these did not occur in the control group. There was no deterioration in VA/Q matching when systemic respiratory acidosis produced either by CO2 inhalation or 4,4'-dinitrostilbene-2,2'-disulfonate or metabolic acidosis (benzolamide or HCl) were imposed to mimic the effects of acetazolamide apart from its inhibition of lung CA. These results support the concept that lung CA subserves VA/Q matching in the normal lung.

Abstract
Two chloride/bicarbonate antiport mechanisms are involved in the regulation of cytosolic pH (pHi) in Vero cells, namely Na+-dependent chloride/bicarbonate antiport to normalize pHi after acidification of the cytosol, and Na+-independent Cl-/HCO3- exchange to regulate pHi back to normal after alkalinization of the cytosol. We have tested the effects of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin), salicylic acid, indomethacin and piroxicam on chloride/bicarbonate exchange and on chloride self exchange in Vero cells. All these drugs were found to inhibit both the Na+-independent and the Na+-linked chloride/bicarbonate antiport in a dose dependent manner. The Na+-independent chloride/bicarbonate antiport was inhibited by lower doses of the drugs than the Na+-linked antiport. The ability of the drugs to inhibit chloride self exchange did not vary much with varying external pH, indicating that the inhibitory effect is due to the anionic form of the drugs. Inhibition occurred immediately upon addition of the drugs, and it was rapidly reversible, indicating that the inhibitory effect is due to direct interaction of the drugs with chloride/bicarbonate antiport, and not to inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis. The relevance of our findings to the clinical effects of the drugs is discussed.

Abstract
Rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) band-3 protein was isolated from trout erythrocyte plasma membranes by a combination of preparative SDS/PAGE and electroelution. High purity and recovery of the plasma membranes were achieved by a new method. This was demonstrated using 4,4'diiso-thiocyano[3H2]dihydro-stilbene 2,2'disulfonic acid (3H2DIDS) which specifically labels band-3 protein. On SDS/PAGE, band-3 protein yields a similarly diffuse pattern, as does mammalian band-3 protein, with an apparent Mr of 116,000. In situ chymotryptic cleavage/cross-linking experiments with 3H2DIDS reveal that the fragments cross-link as in human and mouse band-3 proteins but that there are minor differences. Treatment of trout erythrocytes with trypsin results in cleavage of the band-3 protein. Purified polyclonal antibodies raised against trout band-3 protein react with trout band-3 protein and do not crossreact with mouse or human band-3 protein. They react specifically with only one chymotryptic fragment of trout band-3 protein.

Abstract
Isolation and characterization of the chicken erythroid anion transporter (band 3) cDNA clone, pCHB3-1, revealed that the chicken erythroid band 3 polypeptide is 844 amino acids in length with a predicted mass of 109,000 daltons. This polypeptide is composed of a hydrophilic N-terminal cytoplasmic domain and a hydrophobic C-terminal transmembrane domain. The approximately 90 N-terminal amino acids of the human and murine erythroid band 3 polypeptides are absent in the predicted sequence of the chicken erythroid band 3 polypeptide. The absence of this very acidic N-terminal region is consistent with the lack of binding of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase to chicken erythroid band 3, as well as the relatively basic isoelectric point observed for this molecule. The remainder of the cytoplasmic domain shows little similarity to the cytoplasmic domain of the murine and human erythroid band 3, with the exception of the putative ankyrin-binding site, which is highly conserved. In contrast, the transmembrane domain of the chicken band 3 polypeptide is very similar to that of the murine erythroid and human nonerythroid band 3 polypeptides. The transmembrane domain contains 10 hydrophobic regions that could potentially traverse the membrane 12 to 14 times. In addition, a variant of chicken erythroid band 3, pCHB3-2, was cloned in which one of the hydrophobic regions of pCHB3-1 is lacking. The transcript complementary to pCHB3-2 accumulated in chicken erythroid cells in a similar manner as the transcript complementary to pCHB3-1 during embryonic development. This is the first example of a transporter protein or ion channel with alternative primary structures in its membrane-spanning segments.

Abstract
The experiments described here were designed to investigate the possibility that central stimulation of respiration by salicylates may be due to changes in [H+] of cerebral fluids. Two groups (n = 6 in each) of anesthetized, paralyzed, and mechanically ventilated dogs were studied for 6 hr. Renal pedicles were ligated to maintain blood salicylate level constant. Group II received 150 mg/kg Na salicylate intravenously at 0 hr after samples had been obtained. Group I (control) received equal volume of half-normal saline. Mean plasma salicylate levels were 18.9, 18.4, and 19.6 mg % at 0.5, 3, and 6 hr after administration of Na salicylate. Respective cisternal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels were 3.2, 4.8, and 5.9 mg %. Salicylate-induced hyperthermia was prevented by peritoneal cold dialysis, and a rise in PaCO2 was prevented by increasing ventilation. During the 6 hr of relatively normal systemic acid-base balance, cisternal CSF mean PCO2 values were 45.3, 43.6, and 49.3 mm Hg at 0, 3, and 6 hr in the control group; in group II, respective values were 46.9, 45.7, and 47.7 mm Hg. Cisternal CSF [H+] were 44.4, 45.2, and 50.5 nEq/L in group I at 0, 3, and 6 hr. Respective values in group II were 45.0, 47.5, and 50.6 nEq/L. These values were similar and statistically insignificant from those in group I. In both groups cisternal CSF [HCO3-] fell about 2 and CSF lactate concentration rose about 1 mEq/L at 6 hr.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
During acute respiratory acidosis increments in cisternal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) [HCO3-] approximate decrements in CSF [Cl-] with CSF [Na+] remaining unchanged; the mechanisms mediating this reciprocal anionic relationship are unclear. In the present study we investigated the effects of DIDS (4,4'-diisothiocyano-disulfonic stilbene), a known inorganic anion exchange blocker, on CSF ionic regulation in acute respiratory acidosis. In two groups of anesthetized paralyzed dogs we injected either mock CSF (group I, n = 8) or mock CSF containing DIDS (group II, n = 9) into the lateral cerebral ventricles. After 45 min, acute respiratory acidosis was induced for 6 h. During acute respiratory acidosis, CSF PCO2 rose in average by 38 mm Hg in both groups; increments in CSF [HCO3-], however, were significantly lower by about 2 mEq/L in DIDS-treated animals than in controls throughout the experimental period. Such differences were not due to changes in CSF lactate concentration which were similar in both groups. Furthermore, CSF [Na+] remained unchanged in both groups. Since disulfonic stilbene derivatives combine selectively with the carrier involved in anion transport and inhibit inorganic anion exchange, the data in the present study suggest that in the central nervous system a DIDS-inhibitable carrier is involved in the rise of CSF [HCO3-] observed during acute respiratory acidosis.

Abstract
Primary cultured type II alveolar epithelial cells grown to confluence on nonporous surfaces form many small fluid-filled hemicysts or domes. These domes are generally thought to result from active transport of solutes from the medium above the cell monolayer to the substratum, with water following passively. We have investigated the characteristics of active transport by primary cultured monolayers of type II alveolar epithelial cells from rat lungs. Changes in dome density were measured after exposure to metabolic inhibitors, Na+ or Cl- transport inhibitors, and low-Na+ or low-Cl- culture media. Metabolic and Na+ transport inhibitors, and low-Na+ medium, lead to disappearance of domes, whereas Cl- transport inhibitors and low-Cl- medium seem to have no effect on dome density. These results suggest the presence of a Na+-dependent active transepithelial transport process across the monolayer, which is responsible for the formation of domes. This finding implies that absorption of fluid by mammalian alveolar epithelium in vivo may be important in the maintenance of normal lung fluid balance.

Abstract
Changes in extracellular pH (pHo) in human red cell suspensions were monitored in a stopped-flow rapid reaction apparatus. A 20% suspension of washed human RBC in saline at pH 7 containing NaHCO3 and extracellular carbonic anhydrase was mixed with an equal volume of buffered saline solution at pH 6.7. Sodium salicylate, when present, was added to both the erythrocyte suspension and the buffer solution. The effects of salicylate in the therapeutic to toxic concentration range on HCO-3/Cl- exchange were studied at 37 degree C. HCO-3/Cl- exchange flux was estimated using the extracellular buffer capacity and the difference between dpHo/dt using a control RBC suspension and that using a suspension of RBC whose anion exchange pathway was markedly inhibited. The results show that salicylate competitively decreases the rate of HCO-3/Cl- exchange, with inhibition increasing as salicylate concentration increases. KI is approximately 2.4 mM. At a salicylate concentration of 10 mM, HCO-3/Cl- exchange under the conditions of our experiments was inhibited by more than 70%. These findings are consistent with the possibility that CO2 transfer in capillary beds in vivo may be diminished in the presence of salicylate due to slowing of red cell HCO-3/Cl- exchange.
