The apical membrane of larval bullfrog skin contains a nonselective cation channel that can be activated by apically applied amiloride and acetylcholine. In our search for other ligands that might activate this channel, ATP and other purinergics were tested. When ATP (10-1,000 ยตM) was added to the a
In the presence of NH 4 Cl and hypotonic solutions, Rana balcanica red cells respond by increasing their volume. The stimulation of cellular volume by hypotonicity is more rapid than that of NH 4 Cl, while the maximum value is less than that observed in the presence of NH 4 Cl. Depending on the caus
