Background/Aim: Genistein, the most active isoflavone found primarily in soybeans, alters ion transport functions in intestinal and airway epithelia. The present study aims to investigate the acute effects and mechanisms ...

The effect of prolactin (PRL) on ion transport across the rat colon epithelium was investigated using Ussing chamber technique. PRL (1 μg/ml) induced a sustained decrease in short-circuit current (I sc) in the distal colon ...
