✦ Synopsis

The location of sodium and potassium activated Mg-ATPase (Na-K ATPase) was studied in columnar epithelial cells of the small intestine of rats. Cell components were segregated in centrifuge fractions by a mild procedure (sucrose medium), which preserved mitochondria and vesicular inclusions, and by a drastic procedure, designed to preserve the striated borders selectively. The contents of fractions were characterized by phase contrast and electron microscopy and by the assay of alkaline phosphatase (E.C.3.1.3.1), cytochome oxidase (E.C.1.9.3.1), invertase (E.C.3.2.1.26) and Mg-ATPase (E.C.3.6.1.4).

Na-K ATPase was found to be most concentrated in fractions containing mitochondria on one hand, and striated borders on the other. Its distribution differed from the distributions of the other four enzymes. The physiological implications of finding the "sodium pump" enzyme i n the membrane at the apical pole of the epithelial cell were discussed.

## Abstract Previous studies show Src family kinase (SFK) activation is involved in a response that stimulates Na,K‐ATPase. Here, we tested whether SFK activation is involved in the Na,K‐ATPase response to endothelin‐1 (ET‐1). Intact porcine lenses were exposed to 100 nM ET‐1 for 5–30 min. Then, th

in this study it is shown that the low-pressure steam gasification of activated carbon catalysed by sodium and potassium carbonate, can be characterised by at least three types of activity, that are influenced by the pretreatment temperature and period and by the composition of the gas phase during

Intestinal motor patterns are not well developed in premature infants. Similarly, in neonatal mice, irregular motor patterns were observed. Pacemaker cells, identified in the small intestine as interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs) associated with Auerbach's plexus (ICC-APs), contribute to the generati
