โฆ Synopsis
The fluidity of basolateral and canalicular rat liver plasma membranes was compared with respect to their reeponre to the membrane perturbants ethanol and calcium. The relation between membrane fluidity and taumcholate transport, a liver plasma membrane function mediated by carrier proteins, was also examined. Membrame fluidity was measured by fluorescence polariza-

## Abstract Liver plasma membranes (LPM) were isolated from rats fed an essential fatty acidโsupplemented diet (+EFA) or from rats fed an essential fatty acidโdeficient diet (โEFA). The proportions of linoleate and arachidonate in membrane total fatty acids in the โEFA preparations were oneโhalf or
In the rat hepatoctye, the internalization and degradation of asialoglycoproteins and the secretion of plasma and biliary proteins require specific intracellular sorting of vesicles. To aid in the biochemical characterization of these different vesicular pathways, we examined the effects of the iono
Although the adverse effect of hypoxia on drug metabolism is well documented in subcellular systems, its effect on drug clearance by the intact liver has not been defined. This study was undertaken in the isolated perfused rat liver to examine the effects of acute hypoxia on the hepatic elimination
This study investigated the expression and functional roles of rat plasma membrane monoamine transporter (rPMAT) in the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and the bloodcerebrospinal fluid barrier by using in vitro brain barrier model cells (TR-BBB13 and TR-CSFB3 cells) and multiple in vivo experimental techn
