## Abstract Parenchymal cells were isolated from adult rat liver with an enzyme perfusion technique. The singleβcell suspension, representing 40β50% of the liver's hepatocytes was suspended in medium and maintained in primary culture for up to four days. The cells were found to carry out glycogen s
Neuronal and glial cells in primary culture prepared from the hypothalamic-brain stem areas of one-day-old rat brains were analyzed for the presence of angiotensinogen messenger RNA (mRNA) to further confirm our previous conclusion that the brain contains an exclusive angiotensin system. Angiotensin
Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and neurturin (NTN) bind to GFR alpha-1 and GFR alpha-2 receptors, respectively, and their neurotrophic activity is mediated by the tyrosine kinase receptor, Ret. All these molecules were found to be expressed in primary cultures of rat glial cells,
To analyze the intracellular catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) activity in cultured cells, a substrate (dihydroxybenzoic acid) was added to the tissue culture plates and the product (vanillic acid) was analyzed with reversed-phase HPLC with coulometric detection. The cultures, prepared from variou
