The isolated hepatocyte preparation has become an increasingly popular system for studying xenobiotic metabolism, and there is a need for methods of determining metabolic activity. Described here is a simple and sensitive radiometric assay for barbiturate iV-demethylase activity in the isolated hepa

Adenylate cyclase activity was measured in microdissected samples from lyophilized cryostat sections of rat liver by means of an improved assay. Livers were obtained from adult Sprague-Dawley rats fasted for 22 hr. Adenylate cyclase activities, basal and those elicited by various agents, were determ
## Abstract Although alterations in adenylate cyclase (AC) activity and somatostatin (SRIF) receptor density have been reported in Alzheimer's disease, the effects of amyloid Ξ²βpeptide (AΞ²) on these parameters in the hippocampus are unknown. Our aim was to investigate whether the peptide fragment A
Previous investigation has provided evidence for the control of electrogenic chloride secretion by pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) across the rat epididymal epithelium using electrophysiological measurement of transepithelial transport in cultured epididymal system. Hence,
