Notizen:
The membrane potentials of human embryonic lung fibroblasts have been measured in different cellular environments. Sparse cells on plastic have a mean membrane potential of -8.5 mV. As the cells progress to dense culture, the mean membrane potential rises to -14.7 mV. The mean membrane potential of fibroblasts in human embryonic lung fragments by comparison was found to be -16.5 mV. Sparse cells on collagen, at the same density as the sparse cells on plastic, have mean membrane potentials of -10.8 mV.Sparse cells on plastic migrating from dense cellular areas, following a cut being made in a thick sheet of cells, have mean membrane potentials of -5.9 mV.The significance of these results in relation to cellular environments has been discussed.
