The ability to adjust performance in order to cope with environmental changes depends on the organism's physiological plasticity. These adjustments can be reflected in behavioral, physiological, and molecular changes, which interact and affect each other. Deciphering the role of molecular adjustments in physiological changes will help to understand how multiple levels of biological organization are synchronized during adaptations. Transmembrane transporters, which facilitate a cell's interaction with its surroundings, are prime targets for molecular studies of the environmental effects on an organism's physiology. Fish are subjected to environmental fluctuations and exhibit different coping mechanisms. To study the molecular adjustments of fish transporters to their external surrounding, suitable experimental systems must be established. The Mozambique tilapia (<em>Oreochromis mossambicus</em>) is an excellent model for environmental stress studies, due to its extreme salinity tolerance. We established a homologous cellular-based expression system and uptake assay that allowed us to study the effects of environmental conditions on transmembrane transport. We applied our expression system to investigate the effects of environmental conditions on the activity of PepT2, a transmembrane transporter critical in the absorption of dietary peptides and drugs. We created a stable, modified fish cell-line, in which we exogenously expressed the tilapia PepT2, and tested the effects of water temperature and salinity on the uptake of a fluorescent di-peptide, β-Ala-Lys-AMCA. While temperature affected only Vmax, medium salinity had a bi-directional effect, with significantly reduced Vmax in hyposaline conditions and significantly increased Km in hypersaline conditions. These assays demonstrate the importance of suitable experimental systems for fish ecophysiology studies. Furthermore, our <em>in-vitro</em> results show how the effect of hypersaline conditions on the transporter activity can explain expression shifts seen in the intestine of saltwater-acclimated fish, emphasizing the importance of complimentary studies in better understanding environmental physiology. This research highlights the advantages of using homologous expression systems to study environmental effects encountered by fish, in a relevant cellular context. The presented tools and methods can be adapted to study other transporters <em>in-vitro</em>.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":72753,"journal":{"name":"Current research in physiology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2665944124000026/pdfft?md5=87c94ed733d490da908a966953cd895c&pid=1-s2.0-S2665944124000026-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139392587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, inaccurate citation may lead to significant distortions in scientific understanding. Although ethnical and gender citation disparities have been proposed as critical aspects, there are other contributors to citation distortions, like region-based citation bias, that, although less recognized within the scientific community, are equally important. While the foundations of scientific citation include acknowledging pioneers, giving credit to related work, and providing background reading, other more subjective or even questionable criteria are often used when constructing a reference lists. Here, we discuss the potential causes and ethical concerns of citation bias, emphasizing the role of international- or region-based citation bias as one of the most harmful aspects of this ethical breach. We argue that the international scientific community should be aware of this problem and recognize its consequences, which include hindering the accurate dissemination of science, marginalizing underrepresented voices in academia, and impeding scientific progress. We advocate that scientists should compile their reference lists with the same seriousness and integrity they apply to all other aspects of their research.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":72753,"journal":{"name":"Current research in physiology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2665944124000142/pdfft?md5=d5d24ddee544dbb017b1a99a31ffc726&pid=1-s2.0-S2665944124000142-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141841181","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
