Cell water content in Amphiuma RBCs in control and experimental media. Amphiuma RBCs were transferred at time 0 from isotonic medium to either isotonic (▪), isotonic + 1 μM CLA (▵), hypertonic (○) or hypotonic medium (•). Aliquots were removed at specified times, and water content was determined gravimetrically, normalized to dried whole cell solids (dcs). Significant differences (***P < 0.001) were seen in water content for cells in hypertonic or hypotonic media over 30 min relative to the control condition. No significant difference in cell water content was seen in cells treated with CLA versus untreated cells in isosmotic media (n = 5 means ± SE).
