Journal ArticleDOI
A fluorometric method for determination of oxidized and reduced glutathione in tissues.
Paul J. Hissin,Russell Hilf +1 more
TL;DR: Results for GSH levels agreed well with earlier reports but levels of GSSG estimated here were higher than earlier reported values, and the reasons for the apparently higher levels ofGSSG are discussed.
Journal Article
Regulatory interrelationships for insulin and estrogen action in mammary tumors.
TL;DR: Entry of proline in vitro could be related to the effects of hormones on growth behavior of the tumor in vivo, and further investigation could provide a better understanding of these hormonal interrelationships at the cellular level.
Journal Article
Effects of insulin in vivo and in vitro on amino acid transport into cells from the R3230AC mammary adenocarcinoma and their relationship to tumor growth.
Paul J. Hissin,Russell Hilf +1 more
TL;DR: The R3230AC mammary carcinoma grows faster in diabetic rats; tumor cells from diabetic rats demonstrate increased proline transport and incorporation into proteins compared to tumor cells obtained from intact rats; administration of insulin in vivo reversed this effect on proline and reduced tumor growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characteristics of proline transport into R3230AC mammary tumor cells.
Paul J. Hissin,Russell Hilf +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that proline transport appears to be restricted to the A (alanine-preferring) system, since the vi of proline uptake in the absence of Na+ increases linearly with increasing proline concentration.
Journal Article
Effects of estrogen to alter amino acid transport in R3230AC mammary carcinomas and its relationship to insulin action.
Paul J. Hissin,Russell Hilf +1 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that estrogens are capable of inhibiting amino acid transport into the R3230AC mammary carcinoma, an effect that is compatible with reduced tumor growth.
