The regulation of the activity of transport System L for neutral amino acids has been investigated in Chinese hamster ovary cells. Incubation of the temperature-sensitive leucyl-tRNA synthetase mutant CHO-tsH1 at marginally permissive temperatures results in leucine-limited growth and increased transport of branched chain and aromatic amino acids. This temperature-dependent transport enhancemen...

Although urea transport is receiving increased attention in mammalian systems, very little is known about urea transport in fish tissues. This study examined mechanisms of urea transport in red blood cells and hepatocytes from the lesser spotted dogfish (Scyliorhinus canicula), Atlantic stingray (Dasyatis sabina), turbot (Scopthalmus maximus), redfish (Scianops ocellatus), gulf toadfish (Opsanu...

Endogenous P(i) recycling is a characteristic feature of the P homeostasis in ruminants. A pronounced salivary P(i) secretion into the rumen is balanced by a high intestinal P(i) absorption and an almost complete renal P(i) reabsorption. In monogastric animals, the major P(i) transport mechanism across the apical membrane of the enterocyte is an Na(+)-dependent transport mediated by NaPi cotran...

AIM To compare the sealing ability of the same root fillings when measured by a conventional fluid transport method that uses water or by a modified fluid transport method that uses a wetting fluid as tracer. METHODOLOGY The amount of fluid transport along the same root fillings (AH26, cold lateral compaction of gutta-percha) was measured in a cross-over design in fluid transport set-ups usin...

Abstract We report on observation of the infrared photoresistance twisted bilayer graphene (tBLG) under continuous quantum cascade laser illumination at a frequency 57.1 THz. The shows an intricate sign-alternating behavior variations temperature and back gate voltage, exhibits giant resonance-like enhancements certain voltages. structure photoresponse correlates with weaker features in dark dc...
