Abstract

Basically all cells have the recovery mechanisms from the shift of intracellular pH (pHi). Many mechanisms were found and characterized. Generally the recovery mechanisms from acidosis are Na$\^$+/-dependent, such as Na$\^$+/-H$\^$+/ exchange and Na$\^$+/-HCO$_3$-symport. The recovery mechanism from alkalosis are Cl-dependent, such as Cl$\^$-/-HCO$_3$-exchange and Cal$\^$-/-OH$\^$-/ exchange.(omitted)
