The effects of the phosphoinositide-mobilizing agonist bradykinin (BK) on membrane potential and intracellular calcium in monolayers of normal rat kidney (NRK) fibroblasts were investigated. BK induced a rapid transient depolarization in these cells, which was mimicked by other phosphoinositide-mobi
