PGF2 alpha activation of Na/H antiporter and ammoniagenesis in parent/variant LLC-PK1 cells.

Abstract excerpt

A novel variant of the LLC-PK1 cell line was used to examine directly the mechanism whereby PGF2 alpha and TPA inhibit renal ammoniagenesis. The variant cells, which exhibit a growth pattern and morphology similar to the parent cell line, were isolated by a self selection process utilizing long-term cultures of parent cells maintained under conditions of continuous gentle rocking of the media fluid. Incubation of...
