Résumé
La diphénylhydantoïne agit sur la face externe de la peau de grenouille en provoquant une augmentation de la différence de potentiel et du courant de court circuit. L'effet est rapide, soutenu et réversible. Des interactions entre DPH, ocytocine, amiloride et amphotéricine B ont été étudiées.

The dose chosen in these studies is in the range of the therapeutic doses and is frequently used in in vitro studies with DPH. In a few experiments, doubling the dose resulted in a very small additional increase in the DPH effect.
Such variability is not uncommon in amphibian epithelia and is also observed in response to hormones like oxytocin or vasopressin.
