Fig. 2. (A) The effect of changing the external K+ concentration on
basolateral (Vbl) and transepithelial
(Vte) membrane potentials in a paired experiment.
Vbl hyperpolarizes in a low K+ concentration
and depolarizes in a high K+ concentration. Vte
hyperpolarizes as the K+ concentration increases. (B)
Vbl as a function of log bath [K+] shows a
slope of 28 mV decade-1; y=28x-70. Each point
represents means ± S.E.M. of Vbl.
