Adenosine triphosphatase activity not dependent on sodium or potassium but inhibited by thiocyanate is present in broken-cell homogenates of eel gill and rat kidney. This enzymatic property is predominantly associated with mitochondria, although thiocyanate-inhibited ATPase can also be detected in microsomes with little or no mitochondrial contamination as measured by the activity of the mitochondrial marker enzyme succinic dehydrogenase. When eels are transferred from fresh to salf water, thus increasing active outward transport of chloride across the gill, the thiocyanate-inhibited ATPase of gill microsomes does not change, though the activities of succinic dehydrogenase and Na-K-ATPase in gill homogenates are augmented. The thiocyanate-inhibited ATPase of homogenates of outer renal medulla does not differ from that of renal cortex, in contrast to Na-k-atpase which is higher in renal medulla than in cortex. The data do not support a role for thiocyanate-inhibited ATPase in active chloride transport by epithelial tissues.

In the cells of nephron tubules an effect of furosemide on kidney function and on succinate dehydrogenase and Na+-K+-ATPase activities was studied cytochemically. Administration of furosemide (1 mg per 100 g of body weight) increased excretion of sodium and potassium. If the rate of filtration through Malpighian tufts was constant, the increase in Na and K excretion demonstrated the tubular effect of the diuretics. Both administration of furosemide and preincubation of the drug with kidney slices in vitro caused a decrease in succinate dehydrogenase activity in the cells of all the nephron sections. These data suggest that a direct effect of the diuretics on oxidative metabolism in renal cells took place. Alteration in the activity of Na+-K+-ATPase was observed only in vivo and in those nephron sections, where sodium reabsorption was decreased under the effect of furosemide.

Noradrenaline-storing granules, a mitochondrial fraction and a microsomal fraction of bovine splenic nerve trunks were prepared by differential centrifugation. These particulate fractions were characterized by their noradrenaline content, succinate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphatase activity. In the presence of ATP-Mg2+ all three fractions accumulated 45Ca2+ during incubation with 0.1 mM 45 CaCl2, buffered with potassium phosphate or glycylglycine (pH 7.5; 28 degrees C). The accumulated 45 Ca2+ was not removable by EGTA, and the uptake was absent at 0 degrees C or after destruction of the particles by sonication. The behaviour of the 45 Ca2+ -uptake into all three fractions against varying ATP-concentrations, metabolic inhibitors (pentachlorophenol, desaspidine, 2,4-dinitrophenol, N-ethylmaleimide, p-chloromercuribenzoate, sodium azide, amobarbital) and drugs (phenoxybenzamine, verapamil, prenylamine, reserpine, bretylium, phentolamine) was studied. Under nearly all conditions there were differences between the 45 Ca2+ -uptake into mitochondria and that into microsomes, which suggests two distinct uptake processes. The 45 Ca2+ -uptake into the granule fraction behaved intermediate between the two other fractions under many conditions, but not under all. Therefore, it is not possible to explain the 45 Ca2+ -uptake into the granule fraction as being due to contamination with mitochondria and microsomes; an inherent ATP-Mg2+ -dependent 45Ca2+ -uptake into the nerve granules must be postulated, which is not directly coupled with the noradrenaline transport into these particles. A particulate fraction (14000-100000 g), containing noradrenaline granules, was prepared from the vas deferens of the rat. Incubation with 5 X 10(-6) M (-)-noradrenaline and 0.1 mM 45Ca2+ showed that the particles of this fraction take up noradrenaline and 45Ca2+. The uptake of both was dependent on ATP-Mg2+. The ATP-Mg2+ -dependent uptake of both noradrenaline and 45Ca2+ was substantially reduced in the corresponding tissue fraction prepared from denervated vasa deferentia.

DL50 of intraperitoneal lithium oxybutyrate administered to cats was found to amount to 724 mg/kg, while in doses of 13.5--360 mg/kg it increases the coronary blood flow volume in cats by 20.3--122.2 per cent, directly proportional to the dose. Lithium oxybutyrate prevents the chlorocalcium arrhythmia in rats and eliminates strophanthine-induced anemia in cats, surpassing an analogous effect of lithium chloride, potassium chloride, quinidine, novocainamide and isoptin. It raises the activity of the succinate dehydrogenase in the myocardium and weakens the ability of calcium chloride to reduce the glycogen content in the conduction system of the heart in rats.

It was established that potassium glutaminate is a little toxic compound (LD50 amounts to 4500 mg/kg on administration to white mice by mouth) and shows a marked pharmacological activity. Administration of potassium glutaminate to white rats in a dose 500 mg/kg raises intracellular potassium level in the tissues, makes the acid-balance equilibrium return to normal after unilateral nephrectomy and acid load, activates bile-forming and choleretic liver function, exerts a moderate diuretic effect. The compound potentiates the activity of succinate dehydrogenase and cytochromoxidase in the tissues of old rats.

A highly enriched sarcolemma preparation was isolated by differential centrifugation of a canine ventricular homogenate followed by centrifugation of a membrane fraction layered over 22% (w/v) sucrose. Ouabain binding, ouabain-sensitive potassium phosphatase activity and 5'-nucleotidase activity were enriched 19--27 fold over the homogenate whereas Ca2+-ATPase and succinate dehydrogenase activities were 0.75 and 0.36, respectively, of that for the homogenate. The isolation procedure was relatively rapid and yielded about 2.0 mg protein/100 g of ventricular muscle. The highest salt concentration used in the procedure was 0.6 M KCl and no detergents were employed. Initial characterization studies suggested that the sarcolemma-enriched fraction consists predominantly if not totally of freely permeable membrane vesicles and that the sarcolemma does not manifest a Ca2+-ATPase activity, at least within the limits of the assay procedures employed. This preparation was concluded to be about 1.5- to 4-fold more highly enriched with sarcolemmal markers than preparations obtained by previously published procedures. Accordingly, the preparation provides an improved basis for the probe of calcium movements that occur across the sarcolemma in association with the excitation-contraction-relaxation sequence of the mammalian myocardial cell.

When lead acetate was administered intraperitoneally to young rats at a dose of 20 mg/kg (five times a week for 6 weeks), their growth rate was retarded when compared with controls injected with sodium acetate. Only a small amount of the heavy metal reached the circulation and exerted limited effects on typical target organs. However, large, electron-dense inclusion bodies were found in the abdominal cavity. The in vivo intestinal absorption of glucose was reduced. When perfused at 40 mM concentration, the experimental animals had a mean absorption rate of 152.1 nmol/min . cm vs. 230.6 in the controls (p less than 0.01). Also, sodium and potassium transport was reduced. No effects were observed on amino acid transport and (Na+-K+)-ATPase. Mg++-ATPase, glucose-6-phosphatase, fructose-1, 6-diphosphatase, pyruvate kinase, succinic dehydrogenase, and tryptophan hydroxylase in the small intestinal mucosa and the kidney were unaltered. Renal alkaline phosphatase was decreased. These studies confirm the greater susceptibility of some active transport mechanisms of the small intestinal mucosa to lead toxicity, compared to those of the kidney.

The specific activities (S.A.) of the succinate dehydrogenase-coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) reductase of a control group of 65 Japanese adults and 59 patients having essential hypertension were determined. The mean S.A. of the hypertensive group was significantly lower (p less than 0.001) and the mean % deficiency of enzyme activity was significantly higher (p less than 0.001) than the values for the control group. These data on Japanese in Osaka agree with data on Americans in Dallas. Some patients showed no CoQ10-deficiency, and others showed definite deficiencies. Emphasizing the CoQ10-enzyme for patient selection, CoQ10 was administered to hypertensive patients. Four individuals showed significant but partial reductions of blood pressure. Monitoring the CoQ10-enzyme before, during, and after administration of CoQ10 indicated responses. The maintenance of high blood pressure could be primarily due to contraction of the arterial wall. Contraction or relaxation of an arterial wall is dependent upon bioenergetics, which also provide the energy for biosynthesis of angiotensin II, renin, aldosterone, and the energy for sodium and potassium transport. A clinical benefit from administration of CoQ10 to patients with essential hypertension could be based upon correcting a deficiency in bioenergetics, and point to possible combination treatments with a form of CoQ and anti-hypertensive drugs.

The coprodaeum of the domestic hen maintained on a low-NaCl diet adapts by enhanced sodium transport. This study examines the adaptive response at the single cell and whole organ levels. Surface areas of apical (microvillous) and basolateral plasma membranes of columnar absorptive epithelial cells were estimated by use of ultrastructural stereology. The activities of succinic dehydrogenase (a mitochondrial enzyme) and ouabain-sensitive, potassium-dependent paranitrophenyl phosphatase (a sodium pump enzyme) were determined in tissue homogenates. Sodium, potassium-ATPase (pump enzyme) activity in cell membranes was localized by ultrastructural cytochemistry. Apical and basolateral membranes responded differently. In high-NaCl hens, the membrane signature of the average cell was 32 microns 2 (apical), 932 microns 2 (lateral) and 17 microns 2 (basal). Cells from low-NaCl hens had more apical membrane (49 microns 2 per cell) but essentially the same area of basolateral membrane. However, total surfaces per organ were greater for all membranes. Sodium pump enzymes were localized in basolateral membranes. Enzyme activities per unit mitochondrial volume and per unit basolateral membrane surface were higher in low-NaCl birds. These findings are discussed in the context of known mechanisms of transcellular sodium transport via apical ion channels and basolateral pumps.

3-Nitropropionic acid (1 mM), which inhibits succinate dehydrogenase activity and reduces cellular energy, produces in the pyramidal cell layer of the hippocampal region CA1 a hyperpolarization for variable lengths of time before evoking an irreversible depolarization. Hyperpolarization is caused by an increased potassium conductance that is attenuated by glibenclamide (1-10 microM), a selective antagonist of ATP-sensitive potassium channels; in contrast, diazoxide (0.5 mM), an agonist at this channel, induces a hyperpolarization in CA1 neurons of rat hippocampal slices. The transient hyperpolarization after prolonged (ca. 1 h) application of 3-NPA is followed by a depolarization that is incompletely reversed by brief application of the glutamate antagonists (D-2-amino-5-phosphonopentanoic acid (APV), 6,7-dichloroquinoxaline-2,3-dione (CNQX), 3-(+/-)-2-carboxypiperazin-4-yl)propyl-1-phosphonic acid (CPP), 7-chloro-kynurenic acid (7Cl-KYN)). Early application of glibenclamide (within the initial 5 min) blocked or reduced hyperpolarization and accelerated the depolarization. These data suggest that metabolic inhibition by 3-NPA initially activates ATP-sensitive potassium channels. Events other than activation of glutamate receptors participate in the final depolarization resulting from uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation.
