title: Stimulation of Na+ -dependent amino acid uptake by activation of the Ca2+ -dependent K+ channel in the Ehrlich ascites tumor cell.
abstract: The activation of Ca2+ -dependent K+ channel by propranolol or by ascorbate-phenazine methosulphate stimulates Na+ -dependent transport of alpha-aminoisobutyric acid. This stimulation arises from a membrane hyperpolarization due to the specific increase of membrane K+ conductance. The same treatment does not modify the Na+ -independent uptake of the norbornane amino acid.
