Figure 8. Mechanical cell swelling activates an endogenous current in cytochalasin B-pretreated oocytes. ENaC-expressing oocytes responded by a transient increase of current at â100 mV 20 s after the 90-nl volume increase (A). However a similar response was observed in ENaC-expressing oocytes treated with 10 μM amiloride (B). This response was also observed in control oocytes (Câ) and is, therefore, unrelated to the presence of ENaC. The initial stimulation is summarized at 20 s rather than 10 s, as this value was not measured in all groups of oocytes. However, the stimulation at 20 s was only slightly lower than that observed at 10 s. n = 7 for each group.
