- Аннотация: The effect of phloretin on the carrier-mediated electrically silent ion fluxes through the bilayer lipid membrane (BLM) was studied. The measurements were carried out according to our conventional technique, i.e. electrical potential recording in the presence of a protonophore, and by a new method-direct measurements of pH shifts in the unstirred layers of the BLM by pH microelectrode. Both techniques gave similar results. It was shown that the addition of phloretin increased the rate of cation/H+ exchange induced by nigericin and decreased the rate of anion/OH−-exchange induced by tributyltin. The effect of phloretin was higher in the presence of cholesterol in the BLM. Cholesterol decreased the nigericin- and tributyltin-induced fluxes under our experimental conditions. The application of an external voltage to the membrane had no effect on the ion fluxes thereby showing that these fluxes were electroneutral. The most probable explanation of these results bases on the effect of the membrane dipole potential on the electroneutral fluxes of ions. The possible mechanism of the dipole potential effect on the carrier-mediated electrically silent ion fluxes was discussed in terms of two competing hypotheses — the translocation through the membrane or the reactions at the membrane surface being the rate-limiting steps of the whole transport process.
