The effects of magnesium (Mg) restriction on cell growth and the cell cycle were determined in transformed (TRL-8) and non-transformed (TRL-12-15) epithelial-like rat liver cells. Cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium in which the Mg concentration was reduced to 0.5, 0.1, and 0 x the concentration

## Abstract The effects of pectenotoxinβI (PTX~1~), a nondiarrheagenic toxin from mussels, on liver cells were investigated by fluorescence microscopy. The in vitro application of PTX~1~, to these cells induced reduction in number and loss in radial arrangement of microtubules. It also induced disr
The effects of sera and of platelet-poor plasma from patients with scleroderma on endothelial cell survival in vitro were studied. The survival ratio of rat heart endothelial cells was studied both in 10% test serum and in 10% platelet-poor plasma. Sera from patients with scleroderma decreased the s
We have used a previously described retroviral expression vector pMV7-PKC,, to develop derivatives of two rat liver epithelial cell lines, K16 and K22, that stably express about tenfold-higher PKC activity than control cells. Despite these high levels of PKC, these cells did not exhibit gross morpho
Liver mitochondria were exposed in vitro at 30 degrees C to microwave radiation (2.45 GHz) during the following states of respiration: resting, state 1; substrate dependent, state 2; ADP stimulated, state 3; and ADP depleted, state 4. At 10 or 100 mW/g, with succinate as substrate, no effect of expo
