Abstract
The effects of three local anesthetics, lidocaine, dibucaine, and tetracaine, on Na+/H+ antiporter activity were examined in brush border membrane-reconstituted vesicles. Lidocaine at 10 microM inhibited H+ efflux in the presence of an inward Na+ gradient, suggesting that this anesthetic specifically inhibits the Na+/H+ antiporter. On the other hand, dibucaine and tetracaine decreased H+ efflux even in the absence of a Na+ gradient.Entities:
