Two subfractions of bovine thyroid plasma membranes, light membranes (L-membranes) and heavy membranes (H-membranes), were obtained by a discontinuous sucrose gradient centrifugation of plasma membranes. Electron microscopy of the plasma membrane and its subfractions showed that the H-membranes were very similar to the plasma membrane fraction, both contained junctional complexes, long membrane sheets, and vesicles. In contrast, the L-membranes consisted mainly of short membrane sheets and vesicles, and only a few junctional complexes. The H-membranes had greater adenylate cyclase activity which responded to thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) while this hormone had very little effect on the enzyme activity in the L-membranes. Despite the marked difference in TSH stimulation of adenylate cyclase activity in the H- and L-membrane fractions, specific binding of 125I-TSH was similar in both fractions. The L-membranes had higher specific activities of 5'-nucleotidase and Mg2+ATPase while (Na+ + K+)-ATPase and alkaline phosphatase activities were similar in the two subfractions. Protein kinase activity of H-membranes was not significantly stimulated by exogenous cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cAMP). Plasma membranes and H-membranes contained a substrate capable of being phosphorylated. Such phosphorylation was slightly increased by addition of soluble protein kinase. The phosphorylation of exogenous histone by protein kinase of plasma membranes and H-membranes was augmented by cAMP. In contrast, L-membranes had very little protein kinase activity even when exogenous histone was added. They were not a very good substrate for cytosolic protein kinase.

The peptide compositions of rabbit skeletal- and canine cardiac-muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum preparations have been compared by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate. The cardiac preparations contain many proteins in addition to the 105 000 dalton peptide which has been previously identified as the Ca2+ stimulated ATPase. Four peptide components iodinated in the presence of either free or Sepharose 4B-bound lactoperoxidase have molecular weights of 130 000 (component I), 105 000 (component II), 52 000 (component III) and 47 000 (component IV). Comparison of the labelling patterns in the presence of the detergent Triton X-100 suggests that components I, III and IV have part of their peptide internally located. Although part of component II is externally accessible to free lactoperoxidase, its iodination is decreased by Triton X-100. Iodination of phospholamban, the 22 000 dalton substrate for cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, was not observed under the conditions investigated.

A defect in the protein kinase-mediated phosphorylation of erythrocyte membrane proteins, previously unrecognized in stomatocytosis, was discovered in a boy with hereditary stomatocytosis and severe hemolytic anemia. The high-sodium, low-potassium erythrocytes of this patient were remarkably permeable to both sodium and potassium. The rate of ouabain-inhibitable active cation transport was more than ten times normal and was sustained by an increase of similar magnitude in glycolysis. The deformability in vitro of fresh stomatocytes was reduced and deteriorated further after a brief period of incubation with glucose. Ferrokinetic studies showed that these rigid cells were sequestered by the spleen. When stomatocytes were deprived of glucose in vitro, ATP depletion and ATPase cation pump failure rapidly ensued. Because of their permeability defect, such depleted cells rapidly became swollen and lysed. Prolonged entrapment in acidic, hypoglycemic regions of the spleen would recapitulate these unfavorable events in vivo. In this regard, splenectomy was followed by an improvement in erythrocyte survival, although evidence of continuing hemolysis was obtained.

PGE1 has been found to improve the symptoms of diabetic neuropathy. We considered that a PGI2 derivative may also have a similar action and therefore studied its effect in diabetic rats. Iloprost was administered intraperitoneally to streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats at a dose of 10 micrograms/kg/day for a month. The changes in nerve conduction velocity (NCV) were measured in the tail. One day after the last dose of iloprost, both sciatic nerves were removed from each rat, homogenized, and extracted with 6% TCA. The sorbitol and myo-inositol concentrations were determined by a combination of HPLC and an enzymatic method. Cyclic AMP (cAMP) levels were determined by RIA, and Na+, K+ ATPase activity was assessed by the enzyme cycling method of Greene and Lattimer. Iloprost was found to improve the NCV in the diabetic rats. The sorbitol content was not affected by iloprost, but the myo-inositol content was higher in the iloprost group than in the untreated group, although the difference was not statistically significant. The Na+, K+ ATPase activity and cAMP content were significantly higher in the iloprost group than in the untreated group. These findings suggest the possibility that the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (A-kinase) system has an important influence on improvement in Na+, K+ ATPase activity.

The effects of the beta-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol (Iso) on cells of the inner stripe portion of the rabbit outer medullary collecting duct (OMCDi) grown in primary culture were examined using whole cell patch-clamp techniques and measurements of intracellular pH (pHi) and Ca2+. Iso (10(-6) M) increased the cellular Cl- conductance, and this effect was mimicked by treatment of the cells with dibutyryladenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP, 10(-5) M) or protein kinase A (PKA, 0.4 U/ml). Iso did not alter the baseline pHi, but it did increase the activity of both the Cl-/HCO3- antiporter and the H(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (H(+)-ATPase). The increase in Cl-/HCO3- antiporter rate was mimicked by dibutyryl-cAMP plus 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (cAMP + IBMX, 10(-4) M + 10(-5) M). However, the Iso-induced stimulation of the H(+)-ATPase activity was not mimicked by cAMP + IBMX. Measurements of intracellular Ca2+ showed that Iso also increased intracellular Ca2+ levels. This response was not dependent on extracellular Ca2+, nor did cAMP + IBMX appreciably alter intracellular Ca2+. Consequently, we postulate that beta-adrenergic agonists are potential stimulators of OMCDi H+ secretion. These agonists stimulate cellular HCO3- efflux through a signal transduction pathway involving cAMP and PKA. However, a different signal transduction pathway appears to mediate the stimulation of cellular H+ efflux. This second pathway may involve an elevation of intracellular Ca2+.

The relationship between the 22-24 kDa cyclic AMP (cAMP)-dependent phosphoprotein previously described as being involved in the regulation of human platelet membrane Ca2+ transport and a GTP-binding protein of low molecular mass (ras-like protein) was investigated. After isolation of plasma membranes and intracellular membranes, it was found that guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]) bound to plasma membrane proteins ranging in molecular mass from 22 to 29 kDa, but not to intracellular membranes. The major GTP-binding protein appeared as a 24 kDa protein under reduced conditions and a 22 kDa protein under non-reduced conditions. A similar membrane location and electrophoretic mobility were found for both the cAMP phosphoprotein and the protein recognized by a specific anti-rap1 antibody. The identity between the cAMP phosphoprotein and the rap1 GTP-binding protein was further examined by studying the functional effect of GTP on plasma membrane Ca2+ transport. A maximal GTP[S] concentration of 40 microM was found to: (1) inhibit to the same degree (40%) both Ca(2+)-ATPase activity and the Ca2+ transport function mediated by the Ca(2+)-ATPase; (2) inhibit the phosphorylation of the 22-24 kDa protein by the catalytic subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (C.Sub.); and (3) abolish the stimulation of Ca2+ uptake induced by C.Sub. It is concluded that the platelet cAMP phosphoprotein is indeed the rap1 GTP-binding protein, and that it regulates plasma membrane Ca2+ transport, thus providing evidence for a new role of a ras-related protein.

ATPase activity was measured in samples of freshly dissected rabbit ciliary epithelium. The epithelium was ruptured in distilled water, frozen briefly, and incubated at 37 degrees C in a buffer containing 100 mM NaCl and 32P-labeled adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The rate of ATP hydrolysis by the epithelium was linear for as long as 45 min. Ouabain (1 mM) reduced the ATP hydrolysis rate by approximately 50%. When the epithelium was preincubated for 10 min. in the presence of 1 mM dibutyryl cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), the ouabain-sensitive (Na,K-ATPase) activity was diminished; ouabain-insensitive ATPase activity was not reduced. Preincubation of the epithelium with forskolin with isobutylmethylxanthine also reduced ouabain-sensitive ATPase activity. These observations suggest that the ciliary epithelium may have a mechanism for short-term modulation of Na,K-ATPase activity by cAMP. Such a mechanism could be linked to the ability of cAMP-dependent protein kinase to reduce Na,K-ATPase activity in the tissue.

The role of PGE1 in regulating the activity of the Na+, K(+)-ATPase in Madin Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cells has been examined. PGE1 increased the initial rate of ouabain-sensitive Rb+ uptake by MDCK cells, a process that continued to occur over a 5-day period. The increase in the initial rate of ouabain-sensitive Rb+ uptake in MDCK cells treated with PGE1 could be explained by a 1.6-fold increase in the Vmax for ouabain-sensitive Rb+ uptake. The increase in the Vmax for ouabain-sensitive Rb+ uptake observed in MDCK cells under these conditions can be explained either by an increase in the number of active Na+ pumps, or by an increase in the efficiency of the Na+ pumps. Consistent with the former possibility is the observed increase in the number of ouabain binding sites, as well as the increase in Na+, K(+)-ATPase activity in cell lysates obtained from MDCK monolayers treated with PGE1. The involvement of cyclic AMP in mediating these effects of PGE1 on the Na+, K(+)-ATPase in MDCK cells is supported by: (1) the observation of similar effects in 8-bromocyclic AMP treated MDCK monolayers, and (2) a dramatic reduction of the stimulatory effects of PGE1 and 8-bromocyclic AMP on the Vmax for ouabain-sensitive Rb+ uptake, and on the number of ouabain binding sites in dibutyryl cyclic AMP resistant clone 3 (DBr3) (which is defective in cyclic AMP dependent protein kinase activity). PGE1 independent MDCK monolayers exhibit both an increase in the Vmax for ouabain-sensitive Rb+ uptake and an increase in the number of ouabain binding sites in response to 8-bromocyclic AMP. Apparently, the cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase defect in these PGE1 independent cells did not cause cellular cyclic AMP levels to be elevated to a sufficient extent to maximally increase the Na+, K(+)-ATPase activity in these variant cells.

A plasma membrane Ca(2+)-pump ATPase preparation purified from porcine aorta was incubated with cGMP-dependent protein kinase (G-kinase) under the conditions under which dose-dependent stimulation of the enzyme by G-kinase was observed. Several proteins were phosphorylated, but two isoforms of plasma membrane Ca(2+)-pump ATPase with molecular masses of 135- and 145-kDa were not phosphorylated. The protein that was phosphorylated by G-kinase and identified in our previous study as the 135-kDa isoform of Ca(2+)-pump ATPase, on the basis of its almost identical mobility on SDS-PAGE, was found to be another protein with a molecular mass of 138 kDa. Fractionation of the enzyme preparation after incubation with G-kinase by a newly developed calmodulin affinity chromatographic method resulted in the separation of all the G-kinase substrates from the two isoforms of plasma membrane Ca(2+)-pump ATPase. These results suggest that the direct phosphorylation of the Ca(2+)-pump ATPase does not occur in association with the stimulation of the plasma membrane Ca(2+)-pump ATPase by G-kinase.

The regulation of the guinea-pig pancreatic acinar plasma membrane Ca2+ pump by protein kinase A, protein kinase C and calmodulin was investigated. The results were compared with the effects of these regulators on the high affinity Ca(2+)-ATPase found in this membrane preparation. The catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase stimulated Ca2+ transport 2-fold, but had no effect on Ca(2+)-dependent ATPase activity. Purified protein kinase C, the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate and diacylglycerol derivative, 1-stearoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycerol, failed to stimulate the Ca(2+)-uptake but augmented the Ca(2+)-dependent ATPase activity. Exogenously added calmodulin failed to stimulate either activity. In addition, two antagonists of calmodulin activity, trifluoperazine and compound 48/80 produced a concentration-dependent inhibition of Ca(2+)-transport. These data suggest the presence of endogenous calmodulin within guinea-pig pancreatic acinar plasma membranes. Both calmodulin antagonists failed to influence the Ca(2+)-dependent ATPase activity. The ability of boiled extracts from guinea-pig pancreatic acinar plasma membranes to stimulate the Ca(2+)-ATPase activity in calmodulin-depleted erythrocyte plasma membranes confirmed the presence of endogenous calmodulin. Our results imply a role for calmodulin and cAMP-dependent protein kinase, but not protein kinase C, in the regulation of Ca2+ efflux from pancreatic acinar cells. These results also provide further evidence suggesting that the high affinity Ca(2+)-ATPase does not catalyze the plasma membrane Ca(2+)-transport activity observed in pancreatic acini.
