Fig. 8. Concentrationresponse curves for secreted fluid TEA concentration as
a function of bathing saline TEA concentration for the main segment (A) and
whole tubule (B). Concentrationresponse curves for TEA flux as a
function of bathing saline TEA concentration for the main segment (C) and
whole tubule (D). Each point shows the mean ±
S.E.M. for N=616 main
segments or 38 whole tubules. The insets in the upper panels reflect
the corresponding arrangements of the tubules and bathing droplets. A droplet
of secreted fluid (SF) is indicated by the open circle. Abbreviations U,
ureter; D, distal segment; M, main segment; L, lower segment.
