1 Vascular 2-oxoglutarate is almost exclusively taken up by perivenous, glutamine-synthetase-containing hepatocytes. Ketoglutaric Acids glutamate-ammonia ligase Rattus norvegicus
2 The data suggest that vascular oxoglutarate is almost exclusively taken up by the small perivenous hepatocyte population containing glutamine synthetase, i.e. a cell population comprising only 6-7% of all hepatocytes. Ketoglutaric Acids glutamate-ammonia ligase Rattus norvegicus
