LLC-PK1 and M D C K cells take up cationic amino acids (lysine and arginine) by a specific sodium independent transport system. Uptake is inhibited by ornithine in LLC-PK, and M D C K cells either in t h e presence or absence of sodium and by glutamine or homoserine in M D C K cells in the presence

When mamalian cells are starved for amino acids, the activity of the A amino acid transport system increases, a phenomenon called adaptive regulation. We have examined the effects of those factors which support Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell growth in a defined medium on the derepression of S
Biliary epithelial cells (cholangiocytes) are responsible for rapid regulation of bile volume and alkalinity. Secretin and other hormones raising intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) concentrations promote biliary HCO3 secretion by stimulating apical Cl- channels and Cl-/HCO3- exchang
