Fig. 2. Cytochalasin D prevents augmentation of ICFTR by the cytosolic
domain of syntaxin 1A. Whole-cell currents were obtained from 16HBE4o- cells
as in Fig. 1. A summary of
current density at 110 mV is given for cells under control conditions and
cells stimulated with the cAMP cocktail added to the bath solution as
indicated under the respective bars. Cells were treated with 0.5 µg/ml of
cytochalasin D for 30 minutes prior to whole-cell voltage clamp in the
presence and absence of soluble syntaxin 1A
C (20 µg/ml) added to the
pipette solution. There was no significant difference between ICFTR in the
presence and absence of the cytoskeleton-disrupting reagent. ICFTR in the
presence of the cytosolic domain of syntaxin 1A was not significantly
different from that observed under control conditions.
