Metabolic activity in the red blood cells of brown trout was monitored under conditions of oxygen depletion and chemically induced anoxia. Although metabolic activity was reduced during anoxia to one-third of the normoxic value, these cells maintained their ATP contents stable and were viable for hours in the absence of oxygen. In addition, Na+-K+ pump activity was not down-regulated when metabolic activity was reduced during anoxia. The compatibility of this finding with energy equilibrium and ion homeostasis was investigated.
