Fig. 4. Changes in pHi upon challenging cells with hypertonicity while using (a) Ca2+-containing medium (control), (b) Ca2+-free medium and (c) Ca2+-free medium along with preincubation of cells with the intracellular Ca2+-chelating agent BAPTA-AM. Values are means ± s.e.m. of 68-95 cells from 5-10 independent preparations. Inset: pHi changes upon exposing cells to 25 µmol l-1 BAPTA-AM followed by Ca2+-free medium. Values are means ± s.e.m. of 46 cells from three independent preparations.
