TY - JOUR AU - Hering-Smith, Kathleen S. AU - Hamm, L. Lee PY - 2018 TI - Acidosis and citrate: provocative interactions JF - Annals of Translational Medicine; Vol 6, No 18 (September 27, 2018): Annals of Translational Medicine (Focus on “Cardiopulmonary Interactions”) Y2 - 2018 KW - N2 - The kidneys maintain acid-base homeostasis (with the lungs controlling CO2) by reabsorbing large amounts of filtered bicarbonate (HCO3−) and excreting acid. Regulation of pH at both the cell level and organism level are important for many cellular functions and health. Both acidosis and alkalosis have both acute and long-term deleterious consequences.
