Summary

Stimulation of amino acid transport induced by phorbol-12, 13-dibutyrate, platelet-derived growth factor or A23187 was not observed in cells lacking protein kinase C. On the other hand, stimulation of transport by epidermal growth factor or insulin was not affected. These results suggested that the stimulation of amino acid transport is mediated by at least two separate pathways.
