Hyposmolarity-sensitive release of taurine and free amino acids from human lymphocytes.
This study has shown that human lymphocytes possess a hyposmolarity-sensitive release of FAA, particularly of the most abundant one, taurine. This release may contribute to the volume regulatory decrease in lymphocytes.
