Can I read Amiloride-sensitive Na+ current in the granular duct cells of mouse mandibular glands on EtoBox?

Amiloride-sensitive Na+ current in the granular duct cells of mouse mandibular glands by A. Dinudom; J. A. Young; D. I. Cook is a Medicine article available to read on EtoBox.

What is Amiloride-sensitive Na+ current in the granular duct cells of mouse mandibular glands about?

Whole-cell patch clamp studies on dispersed cells from the intraiobular ducts of mouse mandibular glands reveal the presence of an amiloride-sensitive Na +selective conductance that is not found in the cells of the secretory endpieces. Since studies on ripped-off outsideout patches from the basolateral membranes of isolated intralobular ducts show that the membrane conductance is not altered by amiloride, it can be inferred that the Na + conductance seen in whole-cell experiments is located in the luminal membrane. These studies thus provide evidence for the presence of a luminal Na + conductance in salivary ducts and indicate that intralobular and extralobular ducts may handle Na + in a similar manner.
