Activity of enzymes catalizing bioenergetic processes of substance transport through cell membranes, adenosine triphosphatase and para-nitrophenyl phosphates, activity of certain enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism, lactate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, as well as to 5'-nucleotidase taking part in nucleic metabolism were determined in the pancreas of thyreoidectomized rats. Simultaneously the content of lactic acid, phosphorus, potassium and sodium, which immediately related to activation of the mentioned enzymes, was determined in the pancreas. In thyroidectomized rats the activity of Mg2+, Na+, K+-ATPase, Na+, K+-ATPase and lactate dehydrogenase in the pancreas increases, that of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, para-nitrophenylphosphatase and 5-nucleotidase decreases, the content of lactic acid, potassium, sodium and phosphorus increases.

The recently discovered heat-stable inhibitor protein of the Ca2+-activated cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (Sharma, R. K., Wirch, E. & Warg, J. H. (1978) J. Biol. Chem., in press) has been purified 238 214-fold from bovine brain extract using an affinity column of the modulator protein--Sepharose 4B conjugate. The purified sample appears to be homogeneous as judged by sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) gel electrophoresis. The protein band has a mobility corresponding to that of a polypeptide of molecular weight 68 000. Since the heat-stable inhibitor protein has a molecular weight of 70 000 under nondenaturing conditions, it suggests that it is a monomeric protein. The protein has no inhibitory activity toward the cAMP-dependent protein kinase or protein phosphatase. The purified sample has been tested for various enzyme activities which include ATPase, GTPase, cAMP phosphodiesterase, cGMP phosphodiesterase, 5'-nucleotidase, and protein kinase. None of these activities are exhibited by the purified sample.

Gentle homogenization followed by differential and density gradient centrifugation was used to purify line 10 and line 1 guinea pig hepatoma plasma membranes in the form of ghosts. Yields of 15--25% allowed enough membranes to be obtained from a single ascites tumor-bearing animal for immunologic and biochemical studies. Although the plasma membrane marker enzyme (Na+ + k+)atpase was present in normal concentrations in both line 10 and line 1 hepatomas, 5'-nucleotidase was reduced over 100-fold in both tumors and phosphodiesterase I was increased 210-fold in the line 10 hepatomas.

To determine the mechanism of the maturation of the brush border membrane in intestinal epithelial cells, purification of the plasma membrane from undifferentiated rat crypt cells and of the basal-lateral membrane from villous cells has been performed. The method is based on density perturbation of the mitochondria to selectively disrupt their association with the membrane. With both cell populations, two membrane subfractions displaying the same respective density on sucrose gradient have been obtained with an overall yield of 15--20% and a 10-fold enrichment of the plasma membrane markers 5'-nucleotidase and (Na+ + K+)-dependent, ouabain-sensitive ATPase chosen to follow their purification. The four fractions were constituted by sheets and apparently closed vesicles of various sizes. Each fraction was characterized by a distinct protein composition and different levels of enzyme activities. The cells, used for the preparation of the membranes, were isolated as a villus to crypt gradient. This separation and that of the membranes, led to the conclusion that the (Na+ + K+)-dependent ATPase is localized principally in the plasma membrane of all cells whatever their state of maturation, while 5'-nucleotidase is predominantly located in the basal-lateral membrane of the villous cells and may serve as a specific marker for the purification of this membrane. Finally it has been shown that aminopeptidase, dissacharidases and alkaline phosphatase do not appear simultaneously in the maturation process of the cells, alkaline phosphatase being absent from the crypt cells and aminopeptidase being the first to be synthesized. This enzyme seems to appear in the crypt cells membrane before being integrated into the mature brush border membrane.

The effects of amphotericin B drug containing sodium deoxycholate (DOC) and those of DOC and nistatin on the activities of Na+, K+-ATPase and 5'-nucleotidase of canine kidney plasma membranes were studied. It was found that the activities of Na+, K+-ATPase and 5'-nucleotidase were markedly inhibited only after intravenous injection of amphotericin B, whereas the other agents tested caused no changes in the enzyme activities. Similar results were obtained in vitro. In the presence of amphotericin B the activity of Na+, K+-ATPase was noticeably inhibited already at the antibiotic concentration of 0,1 mkg per mg of membrane protein. It was found that the injection of amphotericin B, DOC and nistatin did not qualitatively or quantitatively affect the phospholipid composition of the plasma membranes. This is indicative of the lack of correlation between the enzyme activities and changes in the phospholipid composition of the plasma membranes under effects of amphotericin B. The pyrimidine derivative--amygluracyl--markedly removes the inhibiting effect of amphotericin B on the enzyme activity of plasma membranes.

Fractions enriched in hCG-binding activity were prepared by differential rate centrifugation of superovulated rat ovarian homogenates and were applied to continuous sucrose density gradients (20-55%). After centrifugation at 63,000 x gav for 3.5 h, fractions of each gradient were collected and assayed for a range of marker enzyme activities characteristic of surface membranes and subcellular organelles. Mitochondria, lysosomes, and rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum membranes accumulated in the gradient between 38-41% sucrose (1.165-1.180 g/cm3). Nuclei passed through the gradient. However, the various surface membrane markers concentrated in two distinct regions of the gradient. Alkaline phosphatase, phosphodiesterase, (Na+ + K+)ATPase I, and hCG-binding activity concentrated at 29-32% sucrose (1.120-1.135 g/cm3), whereas 5'-nucleotidase, Mg2+-dependent ATPase, and adenylate cyclase activities (and minor peaks of hCG-binding and phosphodiesterase activities) were enriched at 36-38% sucrose (1.16-1.17 g/cm3). A second ATPase, [(Na+ + K+)ATPase II], was also observed in this region of the gradient, which could be distinguished from (Na+ + K+)ATPase I of the light membrane fraction by its sensitivity to the Ca2+-chelating agent, ethylene glycol bis-(aminoethyl)tetraacetic acid (EGTA). The kinetics of binding of radioiodinated hCG to the gonadotropin receptors of the light and heavy membrane fractions were very similar. It is suggested that fractionation of superovulated rat ovaries yields two distinct populations of surface membrane material which have distinct densities and marker enzyme profiles. Furthermore, in contrast to the heavy membrane fraction, light membranes seem to possess considerable amounts of hCG receptor activity but very little adenylate cyclase.

A method is described for isolation of plasmatic membranes of rat fatty cells immediately from fatty tissue without the treatment with collagenase. Homogenization of fatty tissue was carried out in large volumes of buffered sucrose and EDTA at room temperature followed by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. The preparations obtained exhibited high specific activity of the marker enzyme of plasmatic membranes [5'-nucleotidase and K+, Na+-ATPase], as well as high ability for specific binding of insulin.

A procedure was developed for the isolation of cardiac sarcolemmal vesicles. These vesicles are enriched about ten-fold (with respect to the tissue homogenate) in K+-stimulated p-nitrophenylphosphatase, (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, 5'-nucleotidase activities and sialic acid content, all of which are believed to be components of the sarcolemma. The sarcolemma of tissue culture cardiac cells were radioiodinated and the distribution of this radioiodine paralleled the distribution of the other membrane markers above. There was very little contamination of the sarcolemmal fraction by sarcoplasmic reticulum (as judged by Ca2+-ATPase and glucose-6-phosphatase activities) or inner mitochondrial membranes (as judged by succinate dehydrogenase activity). There may, however, be some contamination by outer mitochondrial membranes (as judged by monoamine oxidase and rotenone-insensitive NADH cytochrome c reductase activities) which have rarely been monitored in cardiac sarcolemmal preparations. The purity of this preparation is good when compared with other cardiac sarcolemmal preparations. This preparation should be very useful in studying the roles of the cardiac sarcolemma (e.g. in excitation contraction coupling and Ca2+ binding).

A membrane fraction with sarcolemmal properties was purified from the smooth muscle layers (myometrium) of rat uterus by successive differential and equilibrium centrifugation in sucrose. The putative sarcolemmal fraction was identified by iodination with [125I]iodosulfanilic acid, had an equilibrium density of 1.15, and was enriched in enzyme activities usually associated with the plasma membrane including 5'-nucleotidase (EC 3.1.3.5) and (Na+ + K+) ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3). These membranes were free of mitochondrial or nuclear membrane contamination, suggesting the relative enrichment of sarcolemmal membranes in the fraction. Proteins of the membranes were heterogeneous with respect to molecular weight, but only a few were labelled when intact muscle was radioiodinated. Uniform resistance of sarcolemmal proteins to trypsin digestion and salt extraction suggested many are tightly bound or intrinsic membrane proteins and was a further indication of the homogeneity of membranes in this fraction.

The hepatotoxicity of CPZ was studied in the isolated perfused rat liver in order to more closely define possible mechanisms of phenothiazine-induced cholestasis. Perfusate concentrations of CPZ were increased from 5 x 10(-6) M to 5 x 10(-4) M until bile secretion was significantly inhibited. Measurements were then made of determinants of bile secretory function, including the magnitude of lobar distribution of perfusate flow, BAIF, and liver plasma membrane enzyme activity, Na+,K+-ATPase, Mg++-ATPase and 5'-nucleotidase. BAIF diminished significantly from control values of 1.76 +/- 0.07 microliter min-1gm-1 of liver to 1.34 +/- 0.15 and 0.80 +/- 0.09 following 2.5 and 5 x 10(-4) M CPZ, respectively. Perfusate flow also diminished from 5.64 +/- 0.44 to 1.24 +/- 0.12 ml min-1 gm-1 of liver 20 min following 5 x 10(-4) M CPZ and was associated with reduced flow to peripheral areas of the hepatic lobes as demonstrated by Tc-HAM. By 30 min, perfusate flow had returned to baseline values. CPZ also transiently diminished the excretion of bile acids in livers receiving a constant infusion of 40 mumol hr-1 sodium taurocholate. Defects in hepatic perfusion could not account entirely for the impairment in BAIF, since comparable mechanical restriction of perfusate flow in controls only diminished BAIF to 1.49 +/- 0.08 microliter min-1gm-1 of liver. CPZ signofocamt;u rediced tje secofoc actovotu pf Mg++-ATPase and 5'-nucleotidase but did not affect Na+,K+-ATPase in liver plasma membrane isolated 20 min after 5 x 10(-4) M CPZ. CPZ also resulted in a profound shift in the recovery of protein in isolated liver plasma membrane fractions from the light (density = 1.16) to heavier (density = 1.18) fractions. These findings, together with previous observations demonstrating alterations in hepatic ultrastructure, indicate that CPZ interacts in a complex manner with hepatocyte plasma and cytoplasmic membrane components and suggest that these drug-membrane interactions independently result in diminished hepatic perfusion, impairment of bile acid excretion, and inhibition of bile acid-independent bile secretion.
