Hepatic zonation of carbon and nitrogen fluxes derived from glutamine and ammonia transformations

BACKGROUND: Glutaminase predominates in periportal hepatocytes and it has been proposed that it determines the glutamine-derived nitrogen flow through the urea cycle. Glutamine-derived urea production should, thus, be considerably faster in periportal hepatocytes. This postulate, based on indirect o...
