Exploring Cellular Water Dynamics Associated With Potassium Ion Changes Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Using MT and T<sub>2</sub>, we demonstrated that both elevated [K<sup>+</sup>] and hypoosmotic stress-induced cell swelling increased T<sub>2</sub>, free water pool, and bound pool per cell, but in different patterns, suggesting that K<sup>+</sup>-induced cell swelling involves processes beyond simple osmosis.
