Effect of frusemide on Cl—channel in

Effect of frusemide on Cl –channel in rat peritoneal mast cells. G. Meyer, S. Doppierio, P. Vallin, L. Daffonchio. ©ERS Journals Ltd 1996. ABSTRACT: Frusemide can be used as an antiasthma drug and appears to inhibit the release (conditioned by activation of Cl– channels) of mast cell proinflammatory mediators. We studied the cause of the effects of frusemide, checking its action on Cl– channels...

Optical actinometry of Cl 2 , Cl , Cl ¿ , and Ar ¿ densities in inductively coupled Cl 2 – Ar plasmas

Optical emission ~OE! actinometry has been used to measure the absolute densities of Cl2, Cl, Cl , and Ar in a high-density inductively coupled ~ICP! Cl2 –Ar plasma at 18 mTorr as a function of the 13.56 MHz radio frequency ~rf! power and Ar fraction. The fractional dissociation of Cl2 to Cl increases with rf power, with the dissociated fraction increasing from 78% to 96% at 600 W ~10.6 W cm! a...

Flow-induced expression of endothelial Na-K-Cl cotransport: dependence on K(+) and Cl(-) channels.

Steady laminar shear stress has been shown previously to markedly increase Na-K-Cl cotransporter mRNA and protein in human umbilical vein endothelial cells and also to rapidly increase endothelial K(+) and Cl(-) channel conductances. The present study was done to evaluate the effects of shear stress on Na-K-Cl cotransporter activity and protein expression in bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAE...

Influence of K-Cl cotransporter activity on activation of volume-sensitive Cl- channels in human osteoblasts.

The whole cell recording mode of the patch-clamp technique was used to study the effect of hypotonic NaCl or isotonic high-KCl solution on membrane currents in a human osteoblast-like cell line, C1. Both hypotonic NaCl or isotonic high-KCl solution activated Cl- channels expressed in these cells as described previously. The reversal potential of the induced Cl- current is more negative when act...
