Substrate regulation of System A transport activity in rat H4 hepatoma cells is described. The uptake of several amino acids was tested in t h e presence of system-specific inhibitors. System A activity was increased in a RNA-and protein synthesis-dependent manner by amino acid deprivation of the ce
Neutral amino acid transport was characterired in human synovial cells. The amino acids tested are transported by all three major neutral amino acid transport systems, that is, A, L, and ASC. The model amino acid 2-aminoisobutyric acid (AIB) was found to be a strong specific substrate for system A i
## Abstract Human blood lymphocytes increase their concentrative uptake of amino acids when treated with plant lectins such as phytohemagglutinin or when exposed to an amino acid deficient environment (adaptation). Previous studies of the PHA effect have been conducted principally with Ξ±βaminoisobu
