Influence of pH on the uptake of 5-fluorouracil into isolated tumour cells.

To investigate the possible dependence of 5-fluorouracil (5FU) uptake in tumours on the intra- (pHi) and extracellular (pHe) pH, a pH gradient (deltapH) was imposed across the plasma membrane of ascites tumour cells in vitro, similar to that known to occur in some solid tumours in vivo, by incubatio...
