Abstract
Although hagfishes osmoconform, concentrations of calcium in their extracellular fluids are maintained at levels lower than those of seawater. Ultimately, calcium homeostasis is a product of relative rates of influx and efflux into the animal, but little is known regarding these processes in hagfish. Using in vitro approaches, calcium influx across gut and skin epithelia of the Pacific hagfish, Eptatretus stoutii, was characterised. Analysis of...
