Anion conductances of giant axons of squid, Sepioteuthis, were measured. The axons were internally perfused with a 100-mM tetraethylammonium-phosphate solution and immersed in a 100-mM Ca-salt solution (or Mg-salt solution) containing 0.3 microns tetrodotoxin. The external anion composition was changed. The membrane currents had a large amount of outward rectification due to anion influx across Cl- channels of the membrane (Inoue, 1985). The amount of outward rectification depended on the species of anion used and was strongly influenced by temperature and internal pH. In contrast to the anion conductances themselves, the conductance relative to Cl- (gA/gCl) was found to be quite stable against changes in the membrane potential, temperature, and pH. It is therefore suggested that each gA/gCl is an intrinsic quantity of the Cl- channel of the squid axon membrane. The sequence and values of gA/gCl obtained in this study were NO3- (1.80) greater than I- (1.40) greater than Br- (1.07) greater than Cl- (1.00) greater than MeSO3- (0.46) greater than H2PO2- (0.33) greater than CH3COO- (0.29) greater than SO4(2-) (0.06).  相似文献

The level of intracellular free chloride in Aplysia giant neurons can be made to decline by pretreatment with 50 mM NH4+ solution followed by washing with 10 mM HCO3-/0.4% CO2-containing fluids. This effect can be completely blocked by the anion flux inhibitor, 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyano-stilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (SITS). The net change of free chloride in the cell cannot be explained by changes in the electrochemical gradient of chloride. These results support the hypothesis that at least one mechanism for intracellular pH regulation involves a Cl-/HCO-3 exchange process.  相似文献

An anion channel from Drosophila neurons had the selectivity sequence: NO3- (1.97) greater than Br- (1.12) approximately equal to I- (1.03) approximately equal to Cl- (1) greater than F- (0.32) much greater than glutamate (less than 0.02) as estimated by the permeability ratio based on the reversal potential measurement. 4-Acetoamido-4'-isothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid applied internally at 10 microM blocked the channel. We suggest that the chloride channel identified here may provide a pathway for Cl- in the resting membrane of Drosophila neurons.  相似文献

Ethanol and GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) and their interaction on 36Cl-influx were analyzed in cultured embryonic palate and limb mesenchymal cells in order to determine whether ethanol exerts its teratogenic action through a GABA receptor involved in embryogenesis. Cl- transport in secondary cultures of C57BL/6 palate mesenchymal cells was shown to consist of three systems including the electroneutral Cl-/HCO3- exchange (50%) and Na+/K+/Cl- cotransport (30%) pathways and the voltage-dependent Cl- channel (20%). Treatment with DIDS (4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid) or SITS (4-acetamido-4'-isocyano-stilbene-2,2' disulfonic acid) in SWV palate cells inhibited the Cl-/HCO3- exchange pathway, while treatment with DIDS and bumetanide inhibited both the exchange and cation cotransport pathways, the residual Cl- influx inferred to be the electrogenic pathway. Inhibition of Cl- transport by anthracene-9-carboxylic acid confirmed the presence of the electrogenic Cl- pathway. It was observed that the rate of Cl- transport was significantly greater in palate cells of C57BL/6 mice than those of SWV mice. Also the rate of Cl- transport was significantly greater in secondary cultures of palate cells from C57BL/6 mice than from primary cultures of limb cells from the same strain. No evidence could be obtained that ethanol (10 to 100 mM) or GABA (3 X 10(-5) M) or their combination stimulated total Cl- influx in either C57BL/6 or SWV palate mesenchymal cells, putative voltage-dependent Cl- influx in C57BL/6 palate cells, or total Cl- influx in primary cultures of C57BL/6 limb mesenchymal cells.  相似文献

Sulfate transport by rat liver lysosomes   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Sulfate transport was examined using membrane vesicles (pH 7.0 inside) prepared from rat liver lysosomes. Sulfate uptake was dependent upon external pH with increased uptake at lower buffer pH. The Km for uptake was 160 microM at pH 5.0 while at pH 7.0, a lower affinity system with a Km of 1.4 mM was present. The protonophore carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone increased uptake at pH 5.0 while valinomycin/KCl had no effect. In contrast, at pH 7.0, valinomycin-induced changes in membrane potential stimulated uptake. Countertransport of sulfate at pH 7.0 was inhibited by 4,4'-diisothiocyano-2,2'-disulfonic acid stilbene, N-(4-azido-2-nitrophenyl)-2-aminoethanesulfonic acid, and a variety of anions: SO4(2-) greater than MoO4(2-) greater than Cl- greater than HPO4- greater than HCO3-. Trans-stimulation of sulfate uptake at pH 7.0 was observed with MoO4(2-) and, to a lesser extent, with S2O3(2-) while Cl-, HPO4-, and HCO3- had little effect. However, chloride loading of vesicles resulted in marked stimulation of sulfate uptake at pH 5.0. It appears that sulfate and protons exit lysosomes in exchange for chloride by a specific, pH-regulated anion transport system.  相似文献

A novel, small conductance of Cl- channel was characterized by incorporation into planar bilayers from a plasma membrane preparation of lobster walking leg nerves. Under conditions of symmetrical 100 mM NaCl, 10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4, single Cl- channels exhibit rectifying current-voltage (I-V) behavior with a conductance of 19.2 +/- 0.8 pS at positive voltages and 15.1 +/- 1.6 pS in the voltage range of -40 to 0 mV. The channel exhibits a negligible permeability for Na+ compared with Cl- and displays the following sequence of anion permeability relative to Cl- as measured under near bi-ionic conditions: I- (2.7) greater than NO3- (1.8) greater than Br- (1.5) greater than Cl- (1.0) greater than CH3CO2- (0.18) greater than HCO3- (0.10) greater than gluconate (0.06) greater than F- (0.05). The unitary conductance saturates with increasing Cl- concentration in a Michaelis-Menten fashion with a Km of 100 mM and gamma max = 33 pS at positive voltage. The I-V curve is similar in 10 mM Tris or 10 mM HEPES buffer, but substitution of 100 mM NaCl with 100 mM tetraethylammonium chloride on the cis side results in increased rectification with a 40% reduction in current at negative voltages. The gating of the channel is weakly voltage dependent with an open-state probability of 0.23 at -75 mV and 0.64 at +75 mV. Channel gating is sensitive to cis pH with an increased opening probability observed for a pH change of 7.4 to 11 and nearly complete inhibition for a pH change of 7.4 to 6.0. The lobster Cl- channel is reversibly blocked by the anion transport inhibitors, SITS (4-acetamido, 4'-isothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid) and NPPB (5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)benzoic acid). Many of these characteristics are similar to those previously described for small conductance Cl- channels in various vertebrate cells, including epithelia. These functional comparisons suggest that this invertebrate Cl- channel is an evolutionary prototype of a widely distributed class of small conductance anion channels.  相似文献

Modification of K conductance of the squid axon membrane by SITS   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4       下载免费PDF全文
The effects of 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (SITS) on the K conductance, gK, were studied in internally perfused giant axons from squid, Doryteuthis. SITS at 3-200 microM was applied intracellularly by adding the reagent to the internal perfusion fluid. Three remarkable changes in gK were noted: there was a slowing of the opening and closing rates of the K channel in the whole voltage region; K channels modified with SITS started to open at voltages below -100 mV, and thus 30% of total K channels were open at the level of normal resting potential (approximately -60 mV) after the maximal drug effect was attained (less than 30 microM); there was a disappearance of gK inactivation that became distinct at relatively high temperature (greater than 8 degrees C). These drug effects depended solely on the drug concentration, not on factors such as repetitive alterations of the membrane potential, and the changes in gK were almost irreversible. Another disulfonic stilbene derivative, 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS), had similar effects on gK, but the effects were approximately 1.5 times stronger. These changes in gK were somewhat similar to alterations in gNa produced by an application of veratridine, batrachotoxin, and grayanotoxin, which are known as Na channel openers.  相似文献

Stimulation of the CD3-T cell antigen receptor complex on T lymphocytes results in a rapid rise in intracellular calcium from both intra- and extracellular sources. The former is thought to be released from the endoplasmic reticulum in response to inositol trisphosphate, while the latter enters the cells through a membrane potential-sensitive transporter (Oettgen, H. C., Terhorst, C., Cantley, L. C., and Rosoff, P. M. (1985) Cell 40, 583-590). In this report we show that the stilbene disulfonate, DIDS (4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid), inhibited the ability of monoclonal anti-CD3 complex antibodies to stimulate an influx of calcium in the human T lymphocyte cell line, Jurkat. DIDS had no effect on either antibody binding to the receptor or receptor-stimulated phosphatidylinositol turnover. The Ki was approximately 25 microM in the presence of extracellular Cl- and 10 microM when labeling was performed in the absence of Cl-, suggesting that DIDS was competing with Cl- for binding to the cell membrane. The reduced form of DIDS, dihydroDIDS, was only 50% as effective as DIDS itself, and the monoisothiocyanate stilbene, 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyantostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid, was totally ineffective, even to concentrations of 0.750 mM. Removal of extracellular Cl- also inhibited the antibody-stimulated influx of calcium. These data suggest that the function of the CD3-T cell receptor-activated calcium channel/transporter may be dependent on or regulated by extracellular Cl-.  相似文献

A Cl- channel with large single-unit conductance and characteristic voltage-dependent inactivation was studied on cultured human fibroblasts. The channel was activated only after excision and lasting depolarization of the membrane patch. In inside-out configuration and in symmetrical 135 mM NaCl, the conductance was 300 pS. The channel was usually open at the membrane potentials between -20 to +20 mV, while more negative or positive voltages closed the channel. The time course of this apparent inactivation process was dependent on increasing potential. Recovery from inactivation was made possible by returning the membrane potential to 0 mV. The channel was selective to Cl- over Na+ with a PCl/PNa of 6. The order of permeability among anions was: I greater than Br = Cl greater than isethionate greater than F greater than glutamate. The channel was blocked by internal application of a derivative of the diphenylamine-2-carboxilate (Blocker 144) but not by 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid.  相似文献

The Xenopus oocyte expression and recording system has allowed a detailed analysis of the physiology and pharmacology of neuronal ion channels including their sensitivity to ethanol. It is important however, to ascertain the effects of a particular drug on the channels inherently expressed by oocytes to ensure that drug effects ascribed to the expressed recombinant receptors are manifested solely through those receptors. In this study, the effects of ethanol were determined on three endogenous currents that can be elicited in oocytes and other cells by various manipulations. The inward cation current, IC, was activated by perfusing naive oocytes with a divalent-free recording solution. Ethanol (25-100 mM) modestly inhibited IC with 100 mM ethanol producing a 7-8% inhibition of steady state currents. The store-operated or capacitative calcium current (I(SOC)) was activated in thapsigargin-treated oocytes by switching from a calcium-free solution to one containing 10 mM calcium. In thapsigargin-treated oocytes also injected with EGTA to block calcium-activated chloride currents, ethanol (100 mM) had no effect on the store-operated calcium current. In contrast, ethanol (10-100 mM) dose-dependently inhibited the calcium-dependent chloride current (I(Cl(Ca)) in thapsigargin-treated oocytes. A voltage-jump protocol was used to separate the two components of I(Cl(Ca)), I(Cl-1) and I(Cl-2). Under these conditions, ethanol (100 mM) inhibited I(Cl-1) currents to a greater extent (38%) than it did I(Cl-2) currents (14%). These results show that Xenopus oocytes express endogenous ion channels that are differentially sensitive to ethanol.  相似文献

Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is a protein kinase A (PKA) and ATP regulated Cl- channel. Studies using mostly ex vivo systems suggested diphenylamine-2-carboxylate (DPC), 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino) benzoic acid (NPPB) and glybenclamide inhibit CFTR Cl- conductance (CFTR GCl). However, the properties of inhibition in a native epithelial membrane have not been well defined. The objective of this study was to determine and compare the inhibitory properties of the aforementioned inhibitors as well as the structurally related anion-exchange blockers (stilbenes) including 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS), 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (SITS), 4,4'-dinitrostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DNDS) in the microperfused intact and basilaterally permeabilized native sweat duct epithelium. All of these inhibitors blocked CFTR in a dose-dependent manner from the cytoplasmic side of the basilaterally permeabilized ducts, but none of these inhibitors blocked CFTR GCl from the luminal surface. We excluded inhibitor interference with a protein kinase phosphorylation activation process by "irreversibly" thiophosphorylating CFTR prior to inhibitor application. We then activated CFTR GCl by adding 5 mM ATP. At a concentration of 10(-4) M, NPPB, DPC, glybenclamide, and DIDS were equipotent and blocked approximately 50% of irreversibly phosphorylated and ATP-activated CFTR GCl (DIDS = 49 +/- 10% > NPPB = 46 +/- 10% > DPC = 38 +/- 7% > glybenclamide = 34 +/- 5%; values are mean +/- SE expressed as % inhibition from the control). The degree of inhibition may be limited by inhibitor solubility limits, since DIDS, which is soluble to 1 mM concentration, inhibited 85% of CFTR GCl at this concentration. All the inhibitors studied primarily blocked CFTR from the cytoplasmic side and all inhibition appeared to be independent of metabolic and phosphorylation processes.  相似文献

Chloride transport in primary cultures of astroglial cells from rat brain shows saturation kinetics, is inhibited by SITS (4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid), and exchanges with HCO-3. These properties are similar to those of the anion exchange system in erythrocytes. Estimated of intracellular C1- concentration([C1-]i) in the primary cultures give values in the range of 31 to 43 mM, which are 3- to 5-times greater than predicted from equilibration with an average measured membrane potential of -70 mV, suggesting that these cells also actively accumulate Cl-.  相似文献

Calcium currents in squid giant axon.   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Voltage-clamp experiments were carried out on intracellularly perfused squid giant axons in a Na-free solution of 100 mM CaCl2+sucrose. The internal solution was 25 mM CsF+sucrose or 100 mM RbF+50mM tetraethylammonium chloride+sucrose. Depolarizing voltage clamp steps produced small inward currents; at large depolarizations the inward current reversed into an outward current. Tetrodotoxin completely blocked the inward current and part of the outward current. No inward current was seen with 100 mM MgCl2+sucrose as internal solution. It is concluded that the inward current is carried by Ca ions moving through the sodium channel. The reversal potential of the tetrodotoxin-sensitive current was +54mV with 25 mM CsF+sucrose inside and +10 mV with 100 mM RbF+50 mM tetraethylammonium chloride+sucrose inside. From the reversal potentials measured with varying external and internal solutions the relative permeabilities of the sodium channel for Ca, Cs and Na were calculated by means of the constant field equations. The results of the voltage-clamp experiments are compared with measurements of the Ca entry in intact axons.  相似文献

We previously reported that, in a HCO3(-)-free medium, cytoplasmic pH (pHi) of hamster fibroblasts (CCL39) is primarily regulated by an amiloride-sensitive Na+/H+ antiport (L'Allemain, G., Paris, S., and Pouysségur, J. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 5809-5815). Here we demonstrate the existence of an additional pHi-regulating mechanism in CCL39 cells, namely a Na+-dependent HCO3-/Cl- exchange. Evidence for this system is based on 36Cl- influx studies and on pHi measurements in PS120, a CCL39-derived mutant lacking the Na+/H+ antiport activity. 36Cl- influx rate is a saturable function of external [Cl-] (apparent Km approximately equal to 7 mM), is competitively inhibited by external HCO3- (KI approximately equal to 3 mM), and by stilbene derivatives (KI approximately equal to 20 microM for 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid). Measurements of pHi recovery after an acute acid load indicate that PS120 cells possess an acid-extruding mechanism dependent on external HCO3-, which is inhibited by stilbene derivatives and requires external Na+. Since 22Na+ influx is stimulated upon addition of HCO3- to acid-loaded cells and this effect is completely abolished by 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid, we conclude that Na+ is co-transported with HCO3-, in exchange for intracellular Cl-. In a HCO3(-)-containing medium, this pHi-regulating mechanism appears to have two essential physiological functions for the Na+/H+ antiport-deficient mutant: protection of the cells against excessive cytoplasmic acidification and establishment of a steady-state pHi permissive for growth, at neutral or slightly acidic pHo values (6.6-7.2).  相似文献

Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) undergo marked morphological changes on contraction of the musculature, making it essential to understand properties of mechanosensitive ion channels. The whole cell patch-clamp technique was used to identify and to characterize volume-activated Cl- currents in ICC cultured through the explant technique. Hypotonic solutions (approximately 210 mosM) activated an outwardly rectifying current, which reversed near the equilibrium potential for Cl-. Time-dependent inactivation occurred only at pulse potentials of +80 mV, with a time constant of 478 +/- 182 ms. The degree of outward rectification was calculated using a rectification index, the ratio between the slope conductances of +65 and -55 mV, which was 13.9 +/- 1.5 at 76 mM initial extracellular Cl- concentration. The sequence of relative anion permeability of the outwardly rectifying Cl- channel was I- > Cl- > aspartate-. The chloride channel blockers, DIDS and 5-nitro-2-(3-phenlypropl-amino)benzoic acid, caused a voltage-dependent block of the outwardly rectifying Cl- current, inhibition occurring primarily at depolarized potentials. On exposure to hypotonic solution, the slope conductance significantly increased at the resting membrane potential (-70 mV) from 1.2 +/- 0.2 to 2.0 +/- 0.4 nS and at the slow-wave plateau potential (-35 mV) from 2.1 +/- 0.3 to 5.0 +/- 1.0 nS. The current was constitutively active in ICC and contributed to the resting membrane potential and excitability at the slow-wave plateau. In conclusion, swelling or volume change will depolarize ICC through activation of outwardly rectifying chloride channels, thereby increasing cell excitability.  相似文献

1. The effects of water flow through the membrane produced by an osmotic gradient on the ionic currents in Helix neurons and in squid giant axons were studied. 2. Outward water flow had a marked effect on the ionic currents. 3. Cell volume diminution in hypertonic solution was accompanied by a decrease in the number of functioning ionic channels in the neurons. 4. Decrease of the tonicity of the external 10(-8) M TTX-containing solution leads to a transient recovery of the action potentials of the squid.  相似文献

We have examined the actions of histidine-specific reagents on potassium channels in squid giant axons. External application of 20-500 microM diethylpyrocarbonate (DEP) slowed the opening of potassium channels with little or no effect on closing rates. Sodium channels were not affected by these low external concentrations of DEP. Internal application of up to 2 mM DEP had no effect on potassium channel kinetics. Steady-state potassium channel currents were reduced in an apparently voltage-dependent manner by external treatment with this reagent. The shape of the instantaneous current-voltage relation was not altered. The voltage-dependent probability of channel opening was shifted toward more positive membrane potentials, thus accounting for the apparent voltage-dependent reduction of steady-state current. Histidine-specific photo-oxidation catalyzed by rose bengal produced alterations in potassium channel properties similar to those observed with DEP. The rate of action of DEP was consistent with a single kinetic class of histidine residues. In contrast to the effects on ionic currents, potassium channel gating currents were not modified by treatment with DEP. These results suggest the existence of a histidyl group (or groups) on the external surface of potassium channels important for a weakly voltage-dependent conformational transition. These effects can be reproduced by a simple kinetic model of potassium channels.  相似文献

In human keratinocytes, mediated transport of Cl- was found to occur mainly by two mechanisms: an anion exchange and an electrically conductive pathway. The contribution of the anion exchange, which accounted for about 50% of overall Cl- efflux, was assessed either by its sensitivity to inhibition by 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS), and by means of Cl- substitution experiments. The anion exchange exhibited a saturation behaviour over the range 10-135 mM Cl-; Cl- was more efficient than HCO3-, Br- and NO3- in increasing Cl- efflux rate, whereas SO4(2-) and I- inhibited Cl- efflux. The electrically conductive Cl- pathway, which accounted for about 40% of total Cl- efflux, was inhibited by the Cl- channel blocker 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)benzoic acid (NPPB) and was at least partially sensitive to variation of the plasma membrane potential. The Cl- channel was insensitive to elevation in the intracellular concentration of either cyclic AMP and calcium ions. Indomethacin, an inhibitor of the cyclooxygenase, failed to reduce Cl- efflux, whereas nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA), an inhibitor of the lipoxygenase, induced 50% inhibition of Cl- efflux. These results support the conclusion that endogenous production of lipoxygenase-derived arachidonic acid metabolite(s) might be responsible for high basal Cl- permeability in human keratinocytes.  相似文献

Recent studies suggest that the major pathway for exit of HCO3- across the basolateral membrane of the proximal tubule cell is electrogenic Na+/HCO3- co-transport. We therefore evaluated the possible presence of Na+/HCO3- co-transport in basolateral membrane vesicles isolated from the rabbit renal cortex. Imposing an inward HCO3- gradient induced the transient uphill accumulation of Na+, and imposing an outward Na+ gradient caused HCO3- -dependent generation of an inside-acid pH gradient as monitored by quenching of acridine orange fluorescence, findings consistent with the presence of Na+/HCO3- co-transport. In the absence of other driving forces, generating an inside-positive membrane potential by imposing an inward K+ gradient in the presence of valinomycin caused net Na+ uptake via a HCO3- -dependent pathway, indicating that Na+/HCO3- co-transport is electrogenic and associated with a flow of negative charge. Imposing transmembrane Cl- gradients did not appreciably affect HCO3- gradient-stimulated Na+ influx, suggesting that Na+/HCO3- co-transport is not Cl- -dependent. The rate of HCO3- gradient-stimulated Na+ influx was a simple, saturable function of the Na+ concentration (Km = 9.7 mM, Vmax = 160 nmol/min/mg of protein), was inhibited by 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (I50 = 100 microM), but was inhibited less than 10% by up to 1 mM amiloride. We could not demonstrate a HCO3- -dependent or 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid-sensitive component of Na+ influx in microvillus membrane vesicles. This study thus indicates the presence of a transport system mediating electrogenic Na+/HCO3- co-transport in basolateral, but not luminal, membrane vesicles isolated from the rabbit renal cortex. Analogous to the use of renal microvillus membrane vesicles to study Na+/H+ exchange, renal basolateral membrane vesicles may be a useful model system for examining the kinetics and possible regulation of Na+/HCO3- co-transport.  相似文献

Modification of sodium channels by chloramine-T was examined in voltage clamped internally perfused crayfish and squid giant axons using the double sucrose gap and axial wire technique, respectively. Freshly prepared chloramine-T solution exerted two major actions on sodium channels: (a) an irreversible removal of the fast Na inactivation, and (b) a reversible block of the Na current. Both effects were observed when chloramine-T was applied internally or externally (5-10 mM) to axons. The first effect was studied in crayfish axons. We found that the removal of the fast Na inactivation did not depend on the states of the channel since the channel could be modified by chloramine-T at holding potential (from -80 to -100 mV) or at depolarized potential of -30 mV. After removal of fast Na inactivation, the slow inactivation mechanism was still present, and more channels could undergo slow inactivation. This result indicates that in crayfish axons the transition through the fast inactivated state is not a prerequisite for the slow inactivation to occur. During chloramine-T treatment, a distinct blocking phase occurred, which recovered upon washing out the drug. This second effect of chloramine-T was studied in detail in squid axons. After 24 h, chloramine-T solution lost its ability to remove fast inactivation but retained its blocking action. After removal of the fast Na inactivation, both fresh and aged chloramine-T solutions blocked the Na currents with a similar potency and in a voltage-dependent manner, being more pronounced at lower depolarizing potentials.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献
