Cells were isolated from the liver of the skate and the uptake of beta-alanine followed using [14C]-beta-alanine. The isolated hepatocytes showed good viability, were found to accumulate beta-alanine from the incubation medium, and did so in a manner indicating a transport system involving a saturab

This study elucidates the in uiuo metabolic response of different liver cells after a single phagocytic chal- Ienge. In uiuo glucose uptake of different tissues and isolated liver cells was determined by a sequential double labeling version of the 2-deoxyglucose technique. After latex administration
The pathway of p-alanine (BALA) oxidation was examined in the liver of the little skate, Raja erinacea. BALA oxidation in liver slices was reduced by inhibitors of transamination and mitochondria1 electron transport. Experiments with liver homogenates indicated that BALA was oxidized by a twostep pr
