Polyamine transport i s an important mechanism by which cells regulate their intracellular polyamine content. It is well established that the lung has a high capacity for polyamine transport, and recently the polyamine putrescine has been shown to be selectively accumulated into the type II pneumocy

## Abstract Angiotensinβconverting enzyme (EC 3.4.15.1) is a carboxyterminal dipeptidyl peptidase. The enzyme catalyzes the conversion of the decapeptide angiotensin I to the octapeptide angiotensin II. In addition, the enzyme catabolizes bradykinin. Because of these actions, the enzyme is of pivot

Vasoconstriction, although likely to be a major factor in the disease, varies between patients and studies of a variety of vasoactive substances have sometimes yielded conflicting results. Amongst these substances, alteration
## Abstract The __Ο__βconopeptides MrIA and MrIB are 13βresidue peptides with two disulfide bonds that inhibit human and rat norepinephrine transporter systems and are of significant interest for the design of novel drugs involved in pain treatment. In the current study we have determined the solut
