The effect of amino acid depletion or supplementation and the effect of glucagon and insulin on the amino acid transport mediated by s stem A were acid (AIB) or N-methyl 2-amino [l-'4C]isobutyric acid (MeAIB) in rat hepatocytes, freshly isolated at different stages of pre-and postnatal development.

System N, a neutral amino acid transport system characterized in rat hepatocytes, shows significant changes in activity during the first 24 hr of primary culture (Weissbach, L., Handlogten, M.E., Christensen, H.N., and Kilberg, M.S. [1982] J. Biol. Chem. 257:12006-12011). Experiments presented in th
## Abstract Transmembrane potential (E~m~) and alphaβaminoisobutyric acid (AIB) transport were measured in primary monolayer cultures of rat hepatocytes obtained from unoperated control rats and from rats 12 hr following partial hepatectomy. Measurements were performed 20β24 hr after plating the ce
The present report shows that System A-mediated 2-aminoisobutyric acid (AIB) uptake is elevated in hepatocytes isolated from adrenalectomized rats when they are compared to control cells. Although System ASC activity also shows this perturbation, Systems N, p, L1, and L2 are unaffected. Transport of
System A, the sodium-dependent neutral amino acid transport activity, has a 3-fold increase in its initial uptake velocity into hepatocytes following partial hepatectomy (PH) in the rat. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of inhibition of System A-mediated amino acid transport on he
