Some inhibitors exert influence on the d-v Vmem-gradient in the FCE during S10b (SIM-experiment; DiBAC). Glibenclamide and verapamil led to hyperpolarisation in both FC types, but especially in vFC, thus lowering the inclination of the d-v gradient (angle × 0.1 and × 0.5, respectively). Amiloride, bafilomycin, 9-anthroic acid and furosemide showed no significant effects on the d-v gradient (cf. Additional file 2: Table S6). For statistics, see legend to Fig. 4
