Effects of Potassium, Sodium, and Azide on the Ionic Movements That Accompany Activity in Frog Nerves

Stimulation of intact or desheathed frog sciatic nerves produced an increase in the sodium content and a decrease in the potassium content of this tissue. In desheathed preparations the magnitudes of the changes in ionic contents decreased as the concentration of the potassium in the bathing solution was increased, while changing the external sodium concentration produced small effects on the i...

Changes in ionic movements across rabbit polymorphonuclear leukocyte membranes during lysosomal enzyme release. Possible ionic basis for lysosomal enzyme release

Changes in the movements of Na+, K+, and Ca+2 across rabbit neutrophils under conditions of lysosomal enzyme release have been studied. We have found that in the presence of cytochalasin B, the chemotactic factor formyl methionyl leucyl phenylalanine (FMLP) induces within 30 s large enhancements in the influxes of both 22Na+ and 45Ca+2 and an increase in the cellular pool of exchangeable calciu...
