[Retracted] α1-Adrenergic Receptor Blockade by Prazosin Synergistically Stabilizes Rat Peritoneal Mast Cells

Figure 2

Adrenaline-induced changes in mast cell membrane capacitance and series and membrane conductance during exocytosis. After the mast cells were incubated in the external solutions containing 1 μM (a), 10 μM (b), 100 μM (c), or 1 mM adrenaline (d), the whole-cell recording configuration was established in single mast cells and dialysis with 100 μM GTP-γ-S was started. Membrane capacitance and series and membrane conductance were monitored for at least 90 sec. Cm: membrane capacitance; Gs: series conductance; Gm: membrane conductance.
