Chlorpromazine affects permeability of resting cells of Tetrahymena pyriformis.
Incubation of cell suspensions of Tetrahymena pyriformis with chlorpromazine increased the permeability of the cell membrane. This permeability change could be measured either biochemically by the increased entrance of a chelator or physically by change in light scattering.
