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
Butyrobetaine transport into the liver was studied using isolated rat hepatocyte plasma membrane vesicles. In the presence of a sodium chloride gradient, an overshoot could be observed, indicating active sodium-dependent transport. A similar overshoot was recorded in the presence of lithium, but not
