    The author develops a mathematical model of the principal cell of the rat cortical collecting duct, in which ion channel permeabilities are either constant or regulated. It is found that the latter version exhibits enhanced cellular homeostasis while the difference in recovery time between the two versions is small. An approximate analysis is carried out by casting the model into a dynamical system with constant coefficients.
