Figure 6. The effect of turgor pressure changes in the DC on OHC electromotility in a DC-OHC pair.

Figure 6

The peak voltage (Vpk) of NLC in the OHC was continuously recorded by use of a phase-tacking technique (Panel A). The DC was voltage-clamped at −40 mV under the whole-cell configuration and its turgor pressure was altered through the patch pipette (Panel B). Increase of turgor pressure in the DC caused the Vpk of OHC NLC shifted to negative voltage.
