Transport of Taurocholate in Isolated Cells from Ileum, Liver and Kidney
Bile acid carriers are localized in ileum, liver, and kidney. It is unknown whether these carriers are identical or different. This work uses isolated cells of the three organs to compare the uptake kinetics o...

Lack of intestinal transport of [3H]-demethylphalloin: Comparative studies with phallotoxins and bile acids on isolated small intestinal cells and ileal brush border membrane vesicles
Several earlier studies suggested that the uptake of phallotoxins by liver cells is a carrier mediated process using a transport system normally handling bile acids (see Frimmer 1982). In this study we have sh...
