Scope and Contents

Contents

Eukaryotic cells exhibit negative resting membrane potential (RMP) owing to the high K
+
permeability of the plasma membrane and the asymmetric [K
+
] between the extracellular and intracellular compartments. However, cochlear fibrocytes, which comprise the basolateral surface of a multilayer epithelial-like tissue, exhibit a RMP of +5...
