When mamalian cells are starved for amino acids, the activity of the A amino acid transport system increases, a phenomenon called adaptive regulation. We have examined the effects of those factors which support Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell growth in a defined medium on the derepression of S

## Abstract A comparison of Lβvaline and Dβglucose transport was carried out with vesicles of plasma membrane isolated either from the luminal (brush border) or from the contraβluminal (basolateral) region of small intestinal epithelial cells. The existence of transport systems for both nonβelectro
Neutral amino acid transport by system A was investigated in the epithelial cell lines MDCK and MDCK-T1. The latter line is a chemically induced, oncogenically transformed line derived from MDCK. Inducers of differentiation, sodium butyrate and 5-azacytidine, and a tumor promoter, TPA, were used as
