Hepatocyte transport of six fluorescent bile acids containing nitrobenzoxadiazolyl (NBD) or a fluorescein derivative on the side chain was compared with that of natural bile acids using the single-pass perfused rat liver. Compounds were infused at 40 nmol/g liver min for 15 minutes; hepatic uptake a

Previous studies indicate that sinusoidal endothelial cells bind and internalize hyaluronic acid at much greater rates than do other liver cells. Thus hepatic hyaluronic acid removal rate may be indicative of sinusoidal endothelial cell function. In these studies the uptake of hyaluronic acid (molec
Isolated rat liver perfusates contain a substance which inhibits 3H-thymidine uptake by phytohemagglutinin-stimulated human peripheral blood lymphocytes in a dose-dependent, noncytotoxic fashion. Suppression is not due to interference of lymphocyte-phytohemagglutinin interaction or dilution of the t
To identify a role for amino acids in cholestasis associated with total parenteral nutrition, we measured bile formation by the isolated perfused rat liver in the presence and absence of added amino acids. All livers were infused constantly with sodium [14C]taurocholate (0.28 mumoles per min) for 90
A structure-activity relationship is presented that satisfactorily predicts the rates of hydrolysis of a series of acetylglycine derivatives by porcine aminoacylase. It is apparent that the substrate specificity of aminoacylase is mainly kinetic in origin, the observed correlation with Taft's E s pa
## Abstract The bioactivation of 7βhydroxyβmethylβ12βmethylbenz[a]anthracene (HMBA) to an electrophilic sulfuric acid ester metabolite has been shown to be catalyzed by rat liver bile acid sulfotransferase I (BAST I). The sulfation and activation of HMBA by BAST I was determined by the ability of s
