Table 3.

Model predictions for the quasi steady state values of ASL ATP concentration ([ATP]), ASL osmolarity (OsmASL), and ASL height (HASL) in cells with and without cilia. The heights for ciliated cells have a volume correction (height due to the cilia plus height due to the liquid); the height without cilia only includes the liquid height.

Experiment [ATP] nM OsmASL mOsm HASL μm
No Cilia 1.00 300.0 4.5
Ciliated Cells with the following shear stresses from tidal breathing:
0 breath stress 2.92 300.0 8.69
.06 9.57 300.0 10.65
.6 94.91 300.0 17.04
