1. Electrical parameters: short circuit current (SCC), transepithelial potential difference (PD) and electrical resistance (R) were measured in isolated frog skin (Rana pipiens) in the presence and in the absence of alloxan. 2. Alloxan decreased SCC and PD in a concentration-dependent pattern, while R remained unchanged. 3. The effect on SCC and PD was observed after 25 min of exposure to the drug. Maximal average effect was 20% in SCC and 17.5% in PD. 4. These results suggest that alloxan decreased epithelial sodium transport, through interference with the activity of the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase.
