The characteristics of 5'-nucleotidase in a clonal line (C6) of rat glioma cells has been examined in detail. The cells liberated 6.80 +/- 0.33 mumol of inorganic phosphate/mg of cell protein/hour, producing nearly equimolar amounts of adenosine and inorganic phosphate from AMP in the extracellular fluid. No 5'-nucleotidase was released by the cells into the medium. Most of the 5'-nucleotidase activity was found to be located in the outer surface of the plasma membrane of C6 cells and rapidly accessible to exogenous AMP, by experiments based upon differential labeling of extracellular and intracellular compartments with 32P and 33P. The ecto-enzyme was active in the absence of divalent cations. However, Mn2+ or Co2+ were somewhat stimulatory. Zn2+ suppressed activity very markedly. The relationship of enzymatic reaction velocity to pH was complex, with an optimum at pH 7.4 for all substrates tested. The ecto-5'-nucleotidase readily hydrolyzed 5'-AMP and 5'-UMP. Other 5'-nucleoside monophosphates, including 5'-deoxy-AMP, were also hydrolyzed, but more slowly; 2'- or 3'-nucleoside monophosphates were not attacked. The ecto-5'-nucleotidase in the intact cell obeyed Michaelis-Menten kinetics. Apparent Km for AMP was 0.22 mM; apparent Km values for other substrates were similar and ranged from 0.16 to 0.18 mM. ADP exerted a very powerful inhibitory effect, behaving as a competitive inhibitor, and 5'-UMP behaved as a strictly competitive substrate for 5'-AMP. ATP and ITP were inhibitory. Of these, ITP served to increase Km for AMP. ATP did likewise, but also greatly lowered Vmax. These findings indicate that the intact cell is capable of rapid hydrolysis of exogenous 5'-AMP, to produce adenosine at the cell surface at a rate which responds directly to extracellular AMP concentration but which can be suppressed by extracellular ADP or ATP.

In this study we report that preincubation of Dictyostelium discoideum membrane-bound adenylate cyclase with ATP over the concentration range 0.5 to 100 mM results in a loss of catalytic activity and that this effect persists even after removal of ATP. An analysis of the time course of this effect shows that, at 25 mM ATP, a 5- to 10-min preincubation results in 50% loss of activity. Additional studies on this effect showed that anhydride bond cleavage of ATP occurs during the preincubation. However, loss of catalytic activity is not porduced by ADP, AMP, cAMP, adenosine, pyrophosphate, or phosphate either separately or in pairs. Further, using the structural analogs adenosine 5'-(alpha, beta-methylene)triphosphate and adenyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphonate, we show that there is a direct correlation between alpha-beta-phosphoanhydride bond cleavage and the loss of catalytic activity. These results can be interpreted in terms of two classes of reaction mechanisms: either those involving covalent modifications or those involving a ligand-induced slow conversion of the adenylate cyclase from an active to an inactive form. Additional studies show that the addition of AMP to the reaction mixture, as well as removal of the membrane-bound 5'-nucleotidase activity, can prevent the loss of cyclase activity. These results suggest not only that adenylate cyclase activity is related to the AMP:ATP ratio but that the cyclase activity can be modified by the level of 5'-nucleotidase activity. Studies on the duration of the loss of activity produced by ATP show that following removal of ATP and additional incubation, a gradual recovery of cyclase activity is observed. This result suggests that under appropriate conditions the cyclase inactivation by ATP is reversible.

The 5'-phosphomonoesterase activity of 5'-nucleotidase (EC 3.1.3.5) and alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.5) participates in the catabolism of purine ribonucleotides to uric acid in humans. Initial velocity studies of 5'-nucleotidase suggest a sequential mechanism of interaction between AMP nad MgCl2, with a Km of 14 and 3 muM, respectively. With product inhibition studies the apparent Ki's for adenosine, inosine, cytidine, and inorganic phosphate were 0.4, 3.0, 5.0, and 42 mM, respectively. A large number of nucleoside mono-, di-, and tri-phosphate compounds were inhibitors of the enzyme. Allopurinol ribonucleotide, ADP, or ATP were competitive inhititors when AMP was the substrate, with a Ki slope of 120 muM. The phosphomonoesterase activity of human placental microsomal alkaline phosphatase had a pH optimum of 10.0 and had only 18% of maximum activity at pH 7.4. Substrates and inhibitors included almost any phosphorylated compound. The Km for AMP was 0.4 mM and the apparent Ki for Pi was 0.6 mM. Activity was increased only 19% by 5 mM MgCl2. These observations suggest that 5'-nucleotidase and alkaline phosphatase may be inhibited by ATP and Pi, respectively, under normal intracellular conditions, and that AMP may be preferentially hydrolyzed by 5'-nucleotidase.

5'-Nucleotidase in perfused rat hearts, accessible to extracellular substrate [14C]-AMP contained in the perfusate, was compared to a partially purified 5'-nucleotidase from the same organ. Both activities were inhibited by ATP and, more effectively, by the ADP analog adenosine-alpha, beta-methylene diphosphate (APCP). The isolated enzyme showed a competitive inhibitor constant of 5.4 x 10(-8) M for APCP (Km of AMP = 1.4 x 10(-5) M). Although both activities were effectively inhibited by APCP, insufficient knowledge about the selectivity of this agent as a nucleotidase inhibitor does not permit a conclusion on whether or not the extracellular activity is identical to the partially purified enzyme.

The present state of investigations on molecular and cellular mechanisms of cardioprotective effects of phosphocreatine (PCr) is reviewed. The protective effect of PCr is manifested as significant improvement of heart contractile function recovery, lowering of diastolic pressure elevation and myocardial enzymes release during postischemic reperfusion as well as better preservation of high energy phosphates in comparison with control. Data from multidisciplinary studies using physico-chemical, physiological, pharmacological etc. approaches suggest that one of the key mechanisms of PCr action is its interaction with the sarcolemmal membrane. The authors own data obtained with the use of spin-labeled ESR-probe incorporated into the isolated sarcolemmal vesicles provide direct evidence in favor of the ordering effect of PCr sarcolemmal phospholipid packing with essential involvement of Ca2+ ions. PCr transform membrane phospholipids into more structured gel-like state. The results of biomedical studies suggest that the mechanism of this protective action is complex and includes at least four components: 1) inhibition of lysophosphoglyceride accumulation in the ischemic myocardium and preservation of cardiac cell sarcolemma structure via zwitterionic interaction with PCr molecules; ii) extracellular action consisting in inhibition of platelet aggregation via ADP removal in the extracellular creatine kinase reaction and increasing plasticity of red blood cells; iii) PCr penetration into cells maintenance of high local ATP levels is possible; iiii) inhibition of adenine nucleotide degradation at the step of 5'-nucleotidase reaction in cardiac cell sarcolemma.

The regulation by ATP of Cl- secretion in T84 cells grown on filters was investigated by measuring short-circuit current (Isc = net Cl- secretion). ATP (greater than or equal to 10 microM) added to the basolateral side markedly stimulated Isc both in the presence and absence of forskolin-activated Isc. Fluorescence microscopy of cells loaded with the Ca2+ indicator fura-2 showed that ATP stimulated a transient increase in intracellular free Ca2+ concentration [Ca2+]i. The augmentation of forskolin-stimulated Isc by ATP was at least partly caused by mobilization of Ca2+ from an internal store because prior depletion of the store using ionomycin prevented the response. The activity sequence for stimulation of Isc in the presence of forskolin was adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) = 5'-adenylylimidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP) greater than ATP greater than ADP greater than AMP, suggesting the presence of a P2 purinergic receptor. Neither beta, gamma-methyleneadenosine 5'-triphosphate nor alpha, beta-methyleneadenosine 5'-triphosphate increased the Isc. Stimulation of Isc by ATP in the absence of forskolin was at least partly due to the breakdown of ATP to AMP and adenosine, which act at P1 receptors to stimulate Isc, since 1) inhibition of the ecto-phosphohydrolase 5'-nucleotidase by alpha, beta-methylene-ADP partially inhibited stimulation of Isc by ATP, 2) the adenosine receptor antagonists caffeine and 8-phenyltheophylline markedly inhibited the ATP-stimulated Isc, and 3) AMP-PNP, a weakly hydrolyzable analogue of ATP, caused a much smaller increase in Isc compared with ATP. Adenosine had no effect on [Ca2+]i.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

We have investigated the kinetic properties of the extracellular reaction sequence ATP----ADP----AMP----adenosine catalyzed by ectonucleotidases at the surface of adult rat cardiac myocytes. Analysis of progress of reaction curves indicates that depletion of substrate at cell surfaces dominates the regulation of the rate of hydrolysis of ATP or of ADP when it is the initial substrate. Preferential delivery of intermediate products to be substrates at cell surfaces makes a significant contribution to the regulation of adenosine production from ATP or ADP. Preferential delivery has more impact on the delivery of ADP from adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) to adenosinediphosphatase (ADPase) than on delivery of AMP from ADPase to 5'-nucleotidase. At high initial ATP concentrations, feed-forward inhibition of AMP hydrolysis also modulates the rate of adenosine production. Taken together, the properties of the ectonucleotidases on the myocyte provide a milieu at the cell surface that tends to be poor in nucleotides, especially ATP and ADP (P2 purinoceptor agonists), and rich in adenosine (a P1 purinoceptor agonist) during periods of supply of extracellular nucleotides.

Effects of adenosine and nucleotides on the release of previously stored [3H]-noradrenaline were studied in rabbit brain cortex slices. The slices were stimulated twice, in most experiments by 6 electrical field pulses delivered at 100 Hz. Adenosine and the nucleotides AMP, ADP, ATP, AMPS, ADP beta S, ATP gamma S, beta,gamma-imido-ATP and beta,gamma-methylene-ATP all reduced the evoked overflow of tritiated compounds. For purines for which concentration-response curves were determined, the order of potency was adenosine greater than ATP approximately ATP gamma S approximately beta,gamma-imido-ATP approximately ADP greater than beta,gamma-methylene-ATP. AMP 30 mumol/l and AMPS 30 mumol/l were approximately equieffective with 30 mumol/l of adenosine and ATP gamma S, and ADP beta S 30 mumol/l was approximately equieffective with 30 mumol/l of ADP. alpha,beta-Methylene-ADP, 2-methylthio-ATP, UTP and GTP gamma S did not change the evoked overflow of tritium. alpha,beta-Methylene-ATP caused an increase; however, the increase was small and became significant only after 59 min of exposure to alpha,beta-methylene-ATP or when the slices were stimulated by 30 pulses, 10 Hz. Neither adenosine deaminase (100 U/l) nor the blocker of 5'-nucleotidase, alpha,beta-methylene-ADP (10 mumol/l), attenuated the inhibition caused by ATP, ATP gamma S and beta,gamma-methylene-ATP, despite the fact that adenosine deaminase abolished the effect of adenosine. 8-Cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine (DPCPX, 10 nmol/l) shifted the concentration-response curves of adenosine, ATP gamma S, beta,gamma-imido-ATP and beta,gamma-methylene-ATP to the right by very similar degrees. 8-(p-Sulphophenyl)-theophylline (30 and 300 mumol/l) also markedly antagonized the inhibition produced by ATP gamma S. alpha,beta-Methylene-ATP (10 and 30 mumol/l) and suramin (100 mumol/l) did not modify the effects of adenosine, ATP gamma S and beta,gamma-methylene-ATP. It is concluded that nucleotides themselves can inhibit the release of noradrenaline in the rabbit brain cortex. The nucleotides and adenosine seem to act at the same site, i.e., the A1 subtype of the P1-purinoceptor. The results support the notion that metabolically stable, phosphate chain-modified nucleotides such as ATP gamma S, beta,gamma-imido-ATP and beta,gamma-methylene-ATP can be potent P1 agonists. No evidence was found for presynaptic P2x-, P2y- or P3-purinoceptors.

It was found that mitochondria from human placenta exhibited an ADPase activity with the following characteristics. The enzyme responsible for this activity was associated with the inner mitochondrial membrane. It was not released by treatment of the submitochondrial particles with solutions of high ionic strength. Maximal ADP hydrolysis was reached at pH 8. Specific inhibitors for alkaline phosphatase (L-phenylalanine), myokinase (P1,P5-di(adenosine-5')pentaphosphate), or 5'-nucleotidase (concanavalin A) did not decrease ADP hydrolysis. ATP synthesis from ADP by myokinase was about 13 nmol/mg/min, whereas ADP hydrolysis reached values around 500 to 550 nmol/mg/min, indicating that a myokinase-H+ATPase combination could not account for the observed rates of ADP hydrolysis. The activity was stimulated by Mg2+, but high concentrations of this cation produced inhibition. High ADP concentrations did not inhibit ADPase activity. Kinetic measurements of the activity in the submitochondrial particles showed that the true substrate was ADP-Mg. The kinetic studies showed V(app) values of 476 and 270 nmol/mg/min, and Kmapp values of 416 and 8.7 microM.

The controversial subject of mitochondrial 5'-nucleotidase in the liver was studied employing density gradient fractionation combined with a method for analyzing the distribution profiles of marker enzymes based on multiple regression analysis. Triton WR-1339 was used to improve the separation of mitochondria from lysosomes by the gradient centrifugation technique. Adenosine production was examined further using acetate to increase intramitochondrial AMP, and thus adenosine production, in incubations with gradient centrifugation-purified mitochondria. Distribution analysis of the crude homogenate showed that 5'-nucleotidase activity exists in the mitochondrial fraction. To increase the resolution of this approach with respect to mitochondria, a crude mitochondrial fraction was also studied. In this case the relative mitochondrial activity decreased but 5'-nucleotidase activity was still clearly detectable. The mitochondrial 5'-nucleotidase exhibited a Km of 94 microM and a Vmax of 31 nmol/min per mg protein for AMP. The kinetic data for the Mg2+, ATP, ADP and AOPCP sensitivity of the enzyme showed that it differs from the plasma membrane, lysosome and cytosol 5'-nucleotidases. AOPCP was only a moderate inhibitor, and ATP was a more potent inhibitor than ADP at a 1 mM concentration. The enzyme also showed a requirement of Mg2+. Acetate caused the conversion of intramitochondrial adenylates to AMP and the formation of adenosine. Adenosine concentration increased in the extramitochondrial space in a time-dependent manner, but only trace amounts of nucleotides were detected. The data show that 5'-nucleotidase activity producing adenosine exists in rat liver mitochondria and a concentration-dependent adenosine output from mitochondria by diffusion or facilitated diffusion is also suggested.
