Using quantitative cytochemistry, activities of Na, K-ATPase, succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) and alpha-keto-glutarate dehydrogenase (alpha-KDH) was investigated in cells of renal tubules at different levels of sodium reabsorption in the kidney. The activity of these enzymes in mammals and birds renal tubule cells was found to be higher than in the cells of corresponding renal tubules of cold-blooded vertebrates. This corresponds to the increased total amount of reabsorbed sodium in the kidney of warm-blooded animals. The summer frogs, as compared to the winter ones, exhibit higher activities of SDH and Na,K-ATPase in the proximal tubule cells where changes in sodium reabsorption are also noted. In the kidney of marine teleosts, a negative correlation between U/PNa and the activity of SDH and Na,K-ATPase in the cells of proximal and distal tubule was observed. Aldosterone was found to stimulate sodium reabsorption and to activate Na,K-ATPase.SDH and alpha-KDH mainly in the distal convoluted tubule. Furosemide was observed to inhibit sodium reabsorption and to reduce SDH and Na,K-ATPase activities in cells of the proximal tubule and Henle's loop. In the kidney of adrenalectomized rats, both sodium reabsorption and activities of Na,K-ATPase, SDH, alpha-KDH decreased in all the segments of the nephron. The data obtained suggest that changes in sodium reabsorption may be coupled with those in the activities of the investigated enzymes.

Willow is a widely used dioecious woody plant of Salicaceae family in China. Due to their high biomass yields, willows are promising sources for bioenergy crops. In this study, we assembled the complete mitochondrial (mt) genome sequence of S. suchowensis with the length of 644,437 bp using Roche-454 GS FLX Titanium sequencing technologies. Base composition of the S. suchowensis mt genome is A (27.43%), T (27.59%), C (22.34%), and G (22.64%), which shows a prevalent GC content with that of other angiosperms. This long circular mt genome encodes 58 unique genes (32 protein-coding genes, 23 tRNA genes and 3 rRNA genes), and 9 of the 32 protein-coding genes contain 17 introns. Through the phylogenetic analysis of 35 species based on 23 protein-coding genes, it is supported that Salix as a sister to Populus. With the detailed phylogenetic information and the identification of phylogenetic position, some ribosomal protein genes and succinate dehydrogenase genes are found usually lost during evolution. As a native shrub willow species, this worthwhile research of S. suchowensis mt genome will provide more desirable information for better understanding the genomic breeding and missing pieces of sex determination evolution in the future.
