Stimulatory effect of platelet homogenate on amino acid transport into L-929 cells.
It was found that the addition of platelet homogenate to confluent cultures of L-929 cells causes distinct increase of leucine and proline transport into the cells. A significant part of these amino acids is incorporated into high molecular, nondialysable material. The addition of cycloheximide to culture medium completely inhibits incorporation of proline and leucine into proteins but it does not affect the transport of these amino acids into the cells.
