Currents were recorded on a high-throughput patch-clamp robot (SynchroPatch 384PE). Currents carried by the different test ions were normalized to the mean Na+ current. Values are presented as mean ± SD. Currents carried by the test ions were compared with those carried by Na+ using an unpaired t test.
