  • Title: [Action of levorin on glucose transport in the rat small intestine].
    Author: Roshchina GM, Lishnevskaia EB, Sizova IA, Orlova VA, Tereshin IM.
    Journal: Antibiotiki; 1980 Nov; 25(11):850-4. PubMed ID: 7447401.
    Abstract:
    The technique of accumulating preparation of the mucosa and "turned out sac" was used to show that levorin, a polyenic antibiotic in a concentration of 10(-6) M, lowered the transport rate and accumulation of glucose by the epithelial cells of the rat thin intestine under conditions of oxygenation. Suppression of the glucose transport in the first stages resulted in partial inhibition of the transmembrane transfer. It is suggested that levorin suppression of the glucose transport through the erythrocyte apical membrane in the thin intestine is associated with a decrease in the electrochemical gradient of Na+.
