Current-voltage curve of sodium channels and concentration dependence of sodium permeability in frog skin.
1. The inward facing membranes of in vitro frog skin epithelium were depolarized with solutions of high K concentration. The electrical properties of the epithelium are then expected to be governed by the outward facing, Na-selective membrane.2. In this state, the transepithelial voltage (V) was clamped to zero and step-changes of Na activity in the outer solution ((Na)(o)) were performed with ...
متن کاملThe Penetration of Sodium into the Epithelium of the Frog Skin
The aim of this paper is twofold. First, to describe a method for the measurement of the unidirectional flux of Na from the outer bathing solution into epithelium (J(OT)), and second, to describe the use of this method under a variety of experimental conditions in order to obtain some insight into the nature of this flux. The method developed is based on the exposure of a frog skin to a Ringer ...
متن کاملEnergetics of Sodium Transport in Frog Skin
Studies were made of the dependence of the rate of oxygen consumption, J(r), on the electrical potential difference, Deltapsi, across the frog skin. After the abolition of sodium transport by ouabain the basal oxygen consumption was independent of Deltapsi. In fresh skins J(r) was a linear function of Deltapsi over a range of at least +/-70 mv. Treatment with aldosterone stimulated the short-ci...
متن کاملfrom linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar
chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...
15 صفحه اولLocalization of Permeability Barriers in the Frog Skin Epithelium
Ruthenium red and colloidal lanthanum were used to determine the site of the structural barriers to diffusion within the intercellular spaces of frog skin epithelium. Electron micrographs show that occluding zonules located at the outer border of the stratum corneum and at the outer layer of the stratum granulosum are true tight junctions since they are impermeable to these tracers. Measurement...
