  • Title: Effect of taurine on mitogen response of human lymphocytes.
    Author: Pasantes-Morales H, León-Cázares JM.
    Journal: Experientia; 1981; 37(9):993-4. PubMed ID: 6271567.
    Abstract:
    Taurine selectively inhibits the phytohemagglutinin-stimulated incorporation of 3H-thymidine by human cultured lymphocytes (50% inhibition by 12.5 mM taurine). Decreasing effects of taurine on Na-K ATPase activity calcium accumulation by lymphocytes might be responsible for its action on cell proliferation.
