Abstract
- Examines whether extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) stimulates regulatory volume decrease in Necturus maculosus red blood cells. Reversal of the inhibitory effect of apyrase with the nonhydrolyzable analog adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate); Indication that extracellular ATP stimulated cell volume decrease via a calcium-dependent step that led to potassium efflux.
