Fig. 5. Two different responses of basolateral membrane potential
(Vbl) to barium in the presence of a low K+
concentration. (A) Significant hyperpolarization of the
Vbl was seen in eight impalements (P<0.01) and
(B) a depolarization was seen in 13 impalements (P<0.001). The
break in the line in B was due to disturbances; time elapsed was 3 min.
