Representative data from a single experiment showing transmural fluid flux (Jv/A) against applied hydraulic pressure. During control perfusion in the absence of toxin, the Lp was 2.5 × 10−7 cm × (s × cm H2O)−1 and Δπeff was near 18 cm H2O. After 10 min of perfusion with toxin, the Lp increased to 5.5 × 10−7 cm × (s × cm H2O)−1 and Δπeff had fallen to near zero. By near 20 min of toxin exposure, the Lp had risen to 13.5 × 10−7 cm × (s × cm H2O)−1 and Δπeff remained negligible.
