Figure 2.
Fluxes of quantum dots across rat alveolar epithelial cell monolayers treated with 2 mM EGTA for 24 hours increased significantly (by about 50%–130%) from respective controls. Transmonolayer resistance of rat alveolar epithelial cell monolayers decreased by about 95% during experiments in the presence of EGTA.
Notes: Apical [quantum] = 6.25 μg/mL. *Significantly increased compared with control (n = 6).
