Dr. Ahearn plans to continue studies on the mechanisms of solute                transport by crustacean gastrointestinal and renal epithelial                   cells.  The two major goals are:  1)  Continue state-of-the-art                 membrane vesicle studies designed to elucidate the mechanisms of                ion, amino acid, sugar, lipid, peptide, vitamin, and organic acid               transport across isolated and purified brush border and                         basolateral membranes of crustacean hepatopancreatic and antennal               gland epithelia; and 2)  Establish preliminary data showing the                 feasibility of growing functional epithelial cell monolayers from               crustacean hepatopancreas and/or antennal gland that can be used                in transepithelial transport studies of inorganic and organic                   solutes.  The combination of these two approaches to epithelial                 biology should lead to significant information about the                        mechanisms of nutrient and ion absorption and organic acid                      secretion in two major organ systems of this economically-                      important group of invertebrates.
