| Abstract | 1. Ionic selectivity of an adrenaline-induced current was investigated in single guinea-pig ventricular cells by recording whole-cell currents using the patch clamp technique combined with internal perfusion. Other ionic currents and exchange currents known in ventricular cells were suppressed by appropriate inhibitors and the adrenaline-induced current was defined as a difference between currents obtained in the presence and absence of adrenaline. 2. The adrenaline-induced current was time independent and its I-V relation showed saturation of the inward current in the negative voltage range. 3. The reversal potential was approximately -20 mV with 140 mM-NaCl external solution and Cs(+)-rich internal solution containing 51 mM-Cl-. Replacing Na+ with various monovalent and divalent cations (Li+, K+, Rb+, Cs+, Ca2+, Sr2+ and Ba2+) produced no appreciable change in the reversal potential. 4. Varying the external Cl- concentration ([Cl-]o) in exchange for aspartate or benzenesulphonate greatly changed the reversal potential. The relationship between the reversal potential and log[Cl-]o indicated a slope of 59.5 or 53.6 mV per tenfold change in [Cl-]o in the presence of 51 or 102 mM-Cl- in the internal solution, respectively. 5. Anion substitutions did not appreciably affect the I-V relation before application of adrenaline, suggesting that the cell membrane had a low Cl- conductance in the control state. 6. 4.4'-Dinitrostilbene-2-2'-disulphonic acid (DNDS: 1-10 mM), a specific inhibitor of membrane chloride permeability, depressed the adrenaline-induced current without changing the reversal potential. 7. The results suggest strongly that the adrenaline-induced current is carried mainly by Cl-. However, the development of this current appears to depend also on external cations, since the magnitude of the adrenaline response varied depending on the external cations species, with no response in Tris-HCl or TEA-Cl solution. The external cations may facilitate the adrenaline response with a sequence of efficacy of Na+ greater than K+, Rb+ greater than Cs+, Li+, divalent cations. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
