Reactive disulfide compounds (RDSs) with a pyridyl ring adjacent to the S-S bond such as 2,2'-dithiodipyridine (2,2'-DTDP), 4,4'-dithiodipyridine, and N-succinimidyl 3(2-pyridyldithio)propionate (SPDP) trigger Ca2+ release from sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles. They are known to specifically oxidize free SH sites via a thiol-disulfide exchange reaction with the stoichiometric production of thiopyridone. Thus, the formation of a mixed S-S bond between an accessible SH site on an SR protein and a RDS causes large increases in SR Ca2+ permeability. Reducing agents, glutathione (GSH) or dithiothreitol reverse the effect of RDSs and permit rapid re-uptake of Ca2+ by the Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase. The RDSs, 2,2'-DTDP, 4,4'-dithiodipyridine and SPDP displaced [3H]ryanodine binding to the Ca2+-receptor complex at IC50 values of 7.5 +/- 0.2, 1.5 +/- 0.1, and 15.4 +/- 0.1 microM, respectively. RDSs did not alter the rapid initial phase of Ca2+ uptake by the pump, stimulated ATPase activity, and induced release from passively loaded vesicles with nonactivated pumps; thus they act at a Ca2+ release channel and not at the Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase. Efflux rates increased in 0.25-1.0 mM [Mg2+]free then decreased in 2-5 mM [Mg2+]free. Adenine nucleotides inhibited the oxidation of SHs on SR protein by RDSs and thus reduced Ca2+ efflux rates. However, once RDSs oxidized these SH sites and opened the Ca2+ release pathway, subsequent additions of nucleotides stimulated Ca2+ efflux. In skinned fibers, 2,2'-dithiodipyridine elicited rapid twitches which were blocked by ruthenium red. These results indicate that RDSs trigger Ca2+ release from SR by oxidizing a critical SH group, and thus provide a method to covalently label the protein(s) involved in causing these changes in Ca2+ permeability.

Hypocrellin A (HA)-sensitized photoinactivation of enzymes in human erythrocyte membrane, including AchE, GPDH, Na(+)-K+ ATPase, Ca2(+)-Mg2+ ATPase were studied in this paper. The sensitivity of these four enzymes inactivated by HA and light are as following order: Ca2(+)-Mg2+ ATPase greater than Na(+)-K+ ATPase greater than GPDH greater than AchE. The relationship among ATPase inactivation, sulfhydryl photoinactivation and lipid peroxidation was also investigated. Results show that SH group photooxidation probably is one of the major reasons of enzyme inactivation whereas lipid peroxidation has little effect. The isolated GPDH was less sensitive than that membrane-bound, GSH, NAD acted protectively on GPDH and ATPase respectively. The evidence of electrophoresis and protein intrinsic fluorescence showed that protein structure did not change significantly even though most activity had lost in case of GPDH.

(Na+,K+)ATPase activity of rat liver plasma membranes was evaluated in female rats feeding an ethanol containing diet for 46 days (total ethanol ingested, 59.7 g/100 g body wt). Determinations were performed at the end of ethanol treatment or at various times after stopping treatment. (Na+,K+)ATPase and 5'-nucleotidase activities exhibited a 8- and 1.4-fold decrease, respectively, at the end of ethanol ingestion. In contrast no modifications of Mg2+-ATPase activity were observed. There also occurred, in ethanol-treated rats, release of sorbitol dehydrogenase into the blood, fat accumulation in liver cells, and decrease in reduced glutathione (GSH) liver content. A decrease in (Na+,K+)ATPase activity was also found in plasma membranes isolated from hepatocyte suspensions after a 2-hr incubation with 50 mM ethanol or 1 mM acetaldehyde (ACA), in conditions that caused a great fall in hepatocyte GSH content but did not cause cell death. After the cessation of ethanol administration, there occurred a progressive recovery of (Na+,K+)ATPase activity, GSH and triacylglycerol content, and release of sorbitol dehydrogenase. These parameters reached control values 12 hr after ethanol withdrawal. S-Adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM), L-methionine, and N-acetylcysteine (NAC), given to rats during ethanol treatment, prevented the decrease in (Na+,K+)ATPase activity and GSH content. They also reduced steatosis and liver necrosis. The efficiency of these compounds decreased in this order: SAM, methionine, NAC. SAM accelerated the recovery of all parameters studied after ethanol withdrawal, and also protected (Na+,K+)ATPase activity and GSH content of isolated hepatocytes from the deleterious effect of ethanol. These SAM effects were prevented by 1-chloro-2,4-dinitro-benzene, a compound which depletes cell GSH. Treatment of isolated hepatocytes with [35S]SAM led to the synthesis of labeled GSH. The total amount and specific activity of labeled GSH underwent a significant increase, in the presence of 2 mM ethanol or 0.5 mM ACA, which indicates a marked stimulation of GSH synthesis by ethanol and ACA. These data indicate that ethanol intoxication may inhibit (Na+,K+)ATPase activity; an effect that does not seem to depend on cell necrosis. SAM, methionine, and NAC exert various degrees of protection toward ethanol-induced cell injury, which are related to the efficiency of these compounds in maintaining a high GSH pool.

We investigated the interaction of triethyllead with ATP-coupled cellular enzymatic activities and the role of GSH to reverse the observed inhibition of these enzymes. Triethyllead inhibited the membrane bound Na+-K+-ATPase from HeLa cells (IC50 12 microM) and the ATP-hydrolysing activity of the mitochondrial F0-F1-ATPase complex (IC50 17 microM). Addition of 1 mM GSH reversed both enzyme activities totally, whereas lower GSH concentrations showed a less pronounced effect. Surprisingly, in freshly isolated rat liver mitochondria the ATP-synthesizing activity was also inhibited by triethyllead (IC50 16 microM), in spite of a measured high intramitochondrial GSH concentration (up to 10 mM). Further experiments in isolated submitochondrial particles revealed that ATP-synthesis and ATP-hydrolysis were inhibited by triethyllead with similar IC50 values, and both activities could be protected in vitro from the organolead compound in the presence of 1 mM GSH. Thus in all activities tested in vitro a high excess of GSH over triethyllead (greater than or equal to 25-fold) is necessary to restore the inhibited enzymes. The intramitochondrial triethyllead concentration was further determined after incubation of intact mitochondria with 10 microM of the organolead compound. The organolead concentration measured was as high as 600 microM. This means that in intact mitochondria there exists only a ca. 16-fold excess of GSH, which has been shown to be insufficient to protect ATP-synthesizing and ATP-hydrolyzing activities of the F0-F1-ATPase from triethyllead in vitro. We concluded that in intact mitochondria the F0-F1-ATPase complex is inhibited by triethyllead due to its accumulation in the matrix.

Methemoglobin formation and reduction in canine erythrocytes with inherited high Na,K-ATPase activity (HK cells) were compared with those in normal canine cells (LK cells). Nitrite-induced methemoglobin formation in hemoglobin solutions indicated that the hemoglobin from HK cells was oxidized at essentially the same rate as that of LK cells. However, methemoglobin formation in HK cells was slower due to the inhibition by high glutathione (GSH) concentration. Methemoglobin reduction was allowed to take place on nitrite-treated and washed erythrocytes in a glucose medium and was reduced more rapidly in HK cells than in LK cells. During the reduction, the amounts of lactate and pyruvate increased more rapidly in HK cells, indicating enhanced glycolysis in HK cells. It is thus evident that the hemoglobin of HK cells is more securely protected from nitrite-induced oxidation by the GSH presence in great excess and by the increase in glycolysis.

We have studied a female mongrel dog found in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan. This dog was selected and examined thoroughly because she naturally maintained a high glutathione (GSH) concentration in her erythrocytes and did not exhibit any clinical signs or hematologic disorders. Erythrocytes from this animal demonstrated high K and low Na concentrations, as well as accumulation of the amino acids, glutamic acid, aspartic acid and glutamine. The Na, K-ATPase activity was also markedly elevated and the osmotic fragility of the dog's erythrocytes was found to be significantly increased. Crossbreeding of our dog with a normal dog and also with a heterozygous carrier dog revealed that the genetic abnormality possessed by our dog is transmitted as an autosomal recessive trait. All of the clinical data obtained from studying this animal strongly suggest that it possesses a genetic trait similar to that of the HK dogs previously described by Maede.

The effects of HgCl2, CH3HgCl, p-chloromercuribenzene sulfonate (PCMBS), and CdCl2 on plasma membrane and cell metabolic functions of skate (Raja erinacea) hepatocytes in suspension culture were assessed by measuring (a) the rates of Na+-dependent and -independent L-[14C]alanine uptake, (b) Na+-dependent 86Rb+ uptake, a measure of Na-K-ATPase activity, (c) 86Rb+ efflux, a measure of K+ permeability, (d) the difference between the 3H2O and [14C]inulin distribution spaces, a measure of intracellular water volume, (e) cellular ATP concentrations, and (f) glutathione (GSH) and glutathione disulfide (GSSG) levels. The initial rates of L-alanine and 86Rb+ uptake were inhibited by each of these metals in the following order: HgCl2 greater than CH3HgCl greater than PCMBS greater than CdCl2. Inorganic mercury significantly inhibited the initial rates of Na+-dependent L-alanine and 86Rb uptakes at a concentration of 10 microM, whereas 100 microM produced nearly complete inhibition. These effects were dose-dependent, immediate (observed after less than 5 min of incubation with the metal), and persistent. Mercuric chloride also impaired volume regulatory mechanisms in skate hepatocytes: cells treated with 50 microM HgCl2 swelled slowly over a 60-min interval to volumes nearly double those of control cells. In addition, HgCl2 prevented the normal volume regulatory decrease observed after swelling the hepatocytes in hypotonic media. Mercuric chloride (5-50 microM) produced a rapid initial loss of a large fraction of intracellular 86Rb, followed by a slower rate of release of the remaining isotope. These effects were prevented if GSH was added with, but not following HgCl2. In contrast, dithiothreitol, a more permeable thiol, both prevented and even partially reversed the effects of mercury. Mercuric chloride (10 microM) had no effect on cellular ATP, GSH, or GSSG levels for up to 4 hr incubation. These findings indicate that 86Rb+ (K+) efflux is a sensitive indicator of mercury toxicity, and are consistent with the hypothesis that the plasma membrane is a primary target for mercury's effects. A change in membrane permeability to K+ would dissipate transmembrane electrochemical gradients, and may contribute to the apparent inhibition of transport processes energized by these gradients, such as Na+-alanine cotransport, and volume regulatory mechanisms.

The protective effects of various tannins on ocular lens against the induced oxidative damage were examined. Oxidative damage on mouse lenses was induced by incubating them with xanthine-xanthine oxidase, ADP and Fe3+ (X.XOD system). X.XOD system caused an increase in lipid peroxide of lens membrane and decreases in Na,K-ATPase and GSH reductase activities in the lenses. After pretreatment of lenses with X.XOD system, the lenses were incubated with tannins in the medium containing no X.XOD system and the effects of tannins on biochemical parameters in the lenses were determined. Higher molecular tannins (penta-O-galloyl-beta-D-glucopyranose and geraniin) decreased the lipid peroxide in the lens and restored GSH content, Na,K-ATPase and GSH reductase activities in the lens to the level comparable to control. However, all of tannins tested restored much insufficiently the cation level (ratio of Na+/K+) in the lens regardless of extents of restoration of Na,K-ATPase level by them. Because it was supposed that tannins might act primarily on the plasma membrane, the effect of tannins on lens plasma membrane was examined using cell free system. Lens was homogenated and separated into membrane pellet and supernatant. When the pellet was treated with X.XOD system, the lipid peroxide in the pellet increased and its Na,K-ATPase activity decreased. In addition, the treated pellet decreased the GSH level and GSH reductase activity in the supernatant, when the pellet was combined with the supernatant. Higher molecular tannins reduced lipid peroxide content in the X.XOD-treated pellet to control level and the pellet in which lipid peroxide content was reduced by tannins caused much less decreases of GSH level and GSH reductase activity in the supernatant. These results suggest that, in intact lens, higher molecular tannins act on plasma membrane to eliminate lipid peroxide produced by the X.XOD system and consequently suppress the decreases in both Na,K-ATPase and GSH reductase activities without their entering inside the cell.

The mechanisms of inhibition of rat brain Na+-K+-ATPase by cadmium chloride (CdCl2) and methylmercuric chloride (CH3HgCl) were studied in vitro by assessing the effects of these heavy metals on this enzyme and associated component parameters. Both the heavy metals significantly inhibited the overall Na+-K+-ATPase in a concentration-dependent manner with an estimated median inhibitory concentration (IC-50) of 3.2 X 10(-5) M for CdCl2 and 6 X 10(-6) M for CH3HgCl. Protection of enzyme against heavy metal inhibition by 5 X 10(-5) M to 1 X 10(-4) M dithiothreitol (DTT) and glutathione (GSH) or cysteine (CST) indicates that both monothiols and dithiols have the same ability in regenerating sulfhydryl (-SH) groups or chelating the metals. Inhibition of K+-p-nitrophenyl phosphatase (K+-PNPPase), the component enzyme catalyzing the K+-dependent dephosphorylation in the overall Na+-K+-ATPase reaction by these heavy metals, indicates that the mechanism of inhibition involves binding to this phosphatase. Reversal of K+-PNPPase inhibition by DTT, GSH, and CST suggests sulfhydryl groups as binding sites. Binding of 3H-ouabain, a cardiac glycocide and inhibitor of both phosphorylation and dephosphorylation, to brain fraction was significantly decreased by CH3HgCl, and this inhibition was reversed by the three thiol compounds, suggesting presence of -SH group(s) in the ouabain receptor site. Cadmium chloride failed to inhibit the binding of this receptor, indicating that the mechanics of inhibition of ATPase by CH3HgCl and CdCl2 are different from each other. The results suggest that the critical conformational property of enzyme common to both kinase (E1) and phosphatase (E2) is susceptible to CH3HgCl whereas only phosphatase is sensitive to CdCl2.

Acetaminophen is activated metabolically to yield reactive species that bind covalently to liver cell macromolecules. The extent of covalent binding correlates with the occurrence and severity of hepatic necrosis. We reported previously [J. O. Tsokos-Kuhn, E. L. Todd, J. B. McMillin-Wood and J. R. Mitchell, Molec. Pharmac. 28, 56 (1985)] that active Ca2+ accumulation of isolated liver plasma membranes is decreased 60-75% after a hepatotoxic dose of acetaminophen in vivo. We now report that the protein of isolated liver plasma membranes was substantially labeled with drug metabolites after administration of [3H]acetaminophen. There was no increase in passive membrane permeability that might cause diminished Ca2+ accumulation. Intravesicular volume and relative purity of the vesicle preparations after acetaminophen were not different from controls. However, (Ca2+,Mg2+)-ATPase, a possible biochemical expression of the Ca2+ pump, was decreased 31% (P less than 0.025) after acetaminophen treatment. ATPase activity in both control and treated groups was enhanced by isolating membranes in the presence of 5 mM reduced glutathione (GSH), but the effects of drug treatment were not reversed. A similar effect of GSH on Ca2+ accumulation was observed previously [J. O. Tsokos-Kuhn, E. L. Todd, J. B. McMillin-Wood and J. R. Mitchell, Molec. Pharmac. 28, 56 (1985)]. These data are consistent with a hypothesis wherein alkylation of membrane proteins by reactive acetaminophen metabolites is a factor in the onset of hepatic necrosis after acetaminophen. They are not consistent with an oxidative stress hypothesis where thiol S-thiolation of membrane components is postulated to produce altered membrane permeability or thiol-reversible alterations in membrane protein structure and enzymatic function.
