Ppk19 currents in response to osmotic stretching. (A) Representative whole-cell currents in patch clamp recordings at − 60 mV during hypotonicity exposure (indicated by “Hypo-osmo”) in untransfected, parental vector (mock)-, and ppk19-transfected S2 cells. (B) Current–voltage relationships from whole-cell currents in response to hypotonicity-induced mechanical stress in untransfected, parental vector (mock)-, and ppk19-transfected S2 cells. (C) Currents at − 60 mV during hypotonicity exposure in untransfected, parental vector (mock)-, and ppk19-transfected S2 cells. *, p < 0.05 by unpaired two-tailed t-test.
