TNFα induced up-regulation of Na+,K+,2Cl− cotransporter NKCC1 in hepatic ammonia clearance and cerebral ammonia toxicity
Abstract The devastating consequences of hepatic failure include hepatic encephalopathy, a severe, life threatening impairment of neuronal function. Hepatic encephalopathy is caused by impaired hepatic clearance of NH4 +. Cellular NH4 + uptake is accomplished mainly by the Na+,K+,2Cl− cotransporter....
