The effects of glucagon on amino acid transport in rat hepatocytes are not fully understood. We examined the effect of this hormone on alanine, serine and cysteine preferring system (system ASC)βmediated amino acid transport in rat hepatocyte monolayers using 2βaminoisobutyric acid (AIB) and L βcyst

A method for the primary culture of rat liver cells on collagen-coated dextran microcarriers is described. Ethoxycoumarin deethylase (EOD) activity 24 hr after inoculation was comparable for liver cells cultured on microcarriers and on collagen-coated dishes. Cells were cultured on microcarriers for
The transport of amino acids by normal rat hepatocytes and several hepatoma cell lines has been examined for inactivation by various protein-modifying reagents, including the sulfhydryl-preferring reagents N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) and p-chloromercuribenzene sulfonate (PCMBS). Uptake of 2-aminoisobutyr
