## Abstract The type II pulmonary epithelial cell is the recognized site of surfactant synthesis and storage. Results of recent studies indicate that the thyroid hormones, triiodothyronine (T~3~) and thyroxine (T~4~), may be important regulators of surfactant production and/or release. Direct and i
MDCK kidney epithelial cell cultures exposed to the differentiation inducer hexamethylene bisacetamide (HMBA) for 24 hours exhibited a 50% decrease in transport activity per (Na+, K+)-ATPase molecule (turnover number) but an unchanged number of pump sites (Kennedy and Lever, 1984). Inhibition of pro
