CSF HCO3- increases more than plasma HCO3- in hypercapnia, and there are at least two sources for the CSF HCO3- increase--one derived from the simultaneous increase in plasma HCO3-, and the other, HCO3-formed from hydration of CO2 in the choroid plexus and glia and susceptible to inhibition by acetazolamide (J. Appl. Physiol. 38: 504-512, 1975). It was proposed that the H+ formed in the CNS in CO2 hydration is actively exchanged for plasma Na+ utilizing the Na-K ATPase pump. H+ transport from the CNS was therefore studied in four groups of dogs breathing 5% CO2 at constant VA for 4 h with repeated injections of saline, acetazolamide 5 mg/ml, ouabain 0.1 mg/ml, and acetazolamide and ouabain together into lateral cerebral ventricles. Arterial HCO3-increased 2.5 meq/l at 4 h of hypercapnia in all groups. CSF HCO3-increased 5.8 meq/l in the saline-injected animals, but it increased only about 2 meq/l and equaled plasma HCO3- rise in the other three groups. Therefore CNS HCO3- formation in hypercapnia can be blocked by inhibiting the CO2 hydration reaction with acetazolamide or by blocking H+ removal by inhibiting Na-K ATPase with ouabain. The data support the thesis of active H+ removal from the CNS in exchange for plasma Na+ in hypercapnia.

In the proximal tubules, fractional reabsorption remains essentially unchanged during variations in glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Glomerulotubular balance (GTB), defined as the linear relationship between proximal tubular reabsorption and GFR, is quantitatively the most important regulator of tubular reabsorption, which may be stopped by inhibiting Na, K-ATPase activity completely. However, ouabain in doses inhibiting 80% of the Na, K-ATPases, exerts no effect on proximal reabsorption of water, NaCl and NaHCO3. At constant plasma pH, the same relationship between filtered and reabsorbed bicarbonate is obtained whether bicarbonate reabsorption is altered by varying GFR or plasma concentration of bicarbonate. In contrast, a selective rise in plasma NaCl concentration at constant plasma pH (hypernatremia) reduces NaHCO3 reabsorption and fails to stimulate NaCl reabsorption. Other characteristics of proximal tubular reabsorption are that nonreabsorbable solutes, such as mannitol, inhibit water and NaCl reabsorption with little or no change in NaHCO3 reabsorption and renal oxygen consumption. Mannitol reduces the slope of the GTB curve for NaCl but not for NaHCO3. Hypertonic NaHCO3 exerts an osmotic effect on proximal water and NaCl reabsorption comparable to that of mannitol, whereas hypertonic NaCl is without osmotic effect. By reducing plasma pH (hypercapnia at high plasma bicarbonate concentration), the slope of the GTB curves for NaCl and NaHCO3 can be greatly increased. By raising plasma pH either by hypocapnia or bicarbonate loading, proximal reabsorption of NaHCO3 and NaCl is greatly depressed and remains almost unaltered during variations of GFR (abolished GTB). Similarly, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, such as acetazolamide, reduce the reabsorption of NaCl and NaHCO3 in the same proportion as a rise in plasma pH, and abolish GTB. Examinations of proximal tubular oxygen consumption indicate that the energy requirement for NaHCO3 reabsorption is as expected for transcellular transport by Na, K-ATPases, whereas proximal NaCl reabsorption requires no additional energy. These data indicate that transcellular energy-requiring NaHCO3 reabsorption provides the main osmotic force across the tight junction for paracellular reabsorption of proximal tubular fluid containing NaCl and other solutes of low reflection coefficient. The main factors influencing GTB are the filtered load of bicarbonate, plasma pH and nonreabsorbable solutes in the proximal tubular fluid.

Distal urinary acidification is thought to be mediated by an H+-ATPase sensitive to N-ethylmaleimide and dicyclohexyl-carbodiimide. We have studied the effect of chronic metabolic acidosis (NH4Cl for 3 days) or respiratory acidosis (inhalation of 10% CO2 for 2 days) on the H+-ATPase of plasma membranes prepared from the medulla. The enzymatic assay for the H+-ATPase was performed in the presence of ouabain and oligomycin and in the absence of Ca. H+-transport activity was assessed by the quenching of acridine orange in the presence of ATP. The 15-25% sucrose gradient fraction was enriched 40-fold in enzymatic activity over the homogenate, and 8-fold in enzymatic activity and 4-fold in H+-transport activity over the fluffy fraction (38,000 X g). Metabolic acidosis (pH less than 7.31) or chronic hypercapnia (PCO2 greater than 66 mmHg; 1 mmHg = 133.3 Pa) was induced for 2-3 days. Both groups showed the same enrichment factor in enzymatic and H+-transport assays as the control rabbits. Enzymatic and H+-transport activities, however, were not different between animals with respiratory acidosis and controls. Kinetic studies failed to disclose an increase in Vmax (673 vs. 702 mumol/(mg protein.min] or a decrease in Km (0.43 vs. 0.48 mM) in chronic hypercapnia as compared with controls. Metabolic acidosis also failed to increase H+-ATPase activity. These data demonstrate that the H+-ATPase of renal medulla does not display the expected increase in activity during acidosis. The role of this H+-ATPase in the adaptation to acidosis remains to be determined.

The relationships between pHi (intracellular pH) and phosphate compounds were evaluated by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in normo-, hypo-, and hypercapnia, obtained by changing fractional inspired concentration of CO2 in dogs anesthetized with 0.75% isoflurane and 66% N2O. Phosphocreatine (PCr) fell by 2.02 mM and Pi (inorganic phosphate) rose by 1.92 mM due to pHi shift from 7.10 to 6.83 during hypercapnia. The stoichiometric coefficient was 1.05 (r2 = 0.78) on log PCr/Cr against pHi, showing minimum change of ADP/ATP and equilibrium of creatine kinase in the pH range of 6.7 to 7.25. [ADP] varied from 21.6 +/- 4.1 microM in control (pHi = 7.10) to 26.8 +/- 6.3 microM in hypercapnia (pHi = 6.83) and 24.0 +/- 6.8 microM in hypocapnia (pHi = 7.17). ATP/ADP X Pi decreased from 66.4 +/- 17.1 mM-1 during normocapnia to 25.8 +/- 6.3 mM-1 in hypercapnia. The ADP values are near the in vitro Km; thus ADP is the main controller. The velocity of oxidative metabolism (V) in relation to its maximum (Vmax) as calculated by a steady-state Michaelis-Menten formulation is approximately 50% in normocapnia. In acidosis (pH 6.7) and alkalosis (pH 7.25), V/Vmax is 10% higher than the normocapnic brain. This increase of V/Vmax is required to maintain cellular homeostasis of energy metabolism in the face of either inhibition at extremes of pH or higher ATPase activity.

To examine the possible contribution of active H+ secretion mediated by brush border enzymes to proximal tubule HCO-3 absorption, paired reperfusions of surface proximal convoluted tubules were performed with the inhibitor dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD). In control studies using a solution devoid of HCO-3 but containing 5.5 mM glucose, 1 mM DCCD had no effect on glucose or fluid (Na+) absorption, suggesting that this inhibitor did not interfere with sodium entry at the brush border or mitochondrial energy production (ATP synthesis). In experiments using a perfusion solution containing 18-25 mM HCO-3, DCCD caused a fall in absolute CO2 absorption of approximately 15% under eucapneic conditions and 30% during acute hypercapnia. One millimole per liter amiloride (an inhibitor of the passive Na+-H+ exchanger) caused a 15% inhibition of CO2 absorption during acute hypercapnia and a disproportionately large reduction in fluid (Na+) absorption. The latter was not due to cell poisoning, since 1 mM amiloride had no inhibitory effect on fluid or glucose absorption when a HCO-3-free perfusion solution was used. Addition of 1 mM DCCD to a perfusion solution containing either 10(-3) M amiloride or 10(-4) M acetazolamide caused a significant inhibition of CO2 absorption compared with amiloride or acetazolamide alone. The observations are consistent with the view that in addition to passive Na+-H+ exchange, active transport mediated by either a H+-ATPase or a redox-driven H+ pump in the brush border contributes significantly to HCO-3 absorption in the proximal tubule.

The effect of hypercapnia on brain cell membrane structure and function was studied in anesthetized newborn piglets. Lipid peroxidation products (conjugated dienes and fluorescent compounds), Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity and enzyme affinity to ATP (substrate), K+ and Na+ ions (activators), and strophanthidin (inhibitor) were measured in three groups of animals: controls, those exposed to 90 minutes of PaCO2 > 80 mmHg (hypercapnia) and those exposed the same way, following restoration of normal PaCO2 (recovery). Enzyme activity was unchanged by hypercapnia, but enzyme affinity was altered as indicated by an increase in ATP affinity. Affinities to Na+, K+, and strophanthidin were unchanged. Restoration of normal PaCO2 resulted in an increase in conjugated dienes. The data demonstrate that hypercapnia followed by restoration of normal PaCO2 in healthy term newborn piglets is associated with mild modification of brain cell membrane Na+,K(+)-ATPase, possibly due to lipid peroxidation.

We studied the effect of respiratory acidosis and respiratory alkalosis on acid-base composition and on microdissected renal adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) enzymes. Rats were subjected to hypercapnia or hypocapnia of 6, 24, and 72 h duration. After 6 h of hypercapnia, collecting tubule (CT) ATPases were not changed. At 24 h, plasma bicarbonate was 35 +/- 1 meq/l (P < 0.01) and CT H-ATPase and H-K-ATPase activities were 90% greater than controls (P < 0.01). By 72 h, plasma bicarbonate was 37 +/- 1 meq/l (P < 0.005 vs. control) and CT enzyme activity had increased even more, averaging approximately 130% of control (P < 0.05). Significant increases in enzyme activities were also observed in the proximal convoluted tubule and medullary thick ascending limb. Plasma aldosterone was three to four times that of control at all three time periods. In hormone-replete adrenalectomized rats, acid-base parameters and ATPase activities were the same as those seen in adrenal intact animals. After 6 h of hypocapnia, plasma bicarbonate was not significantly changed, but H-ATPase and Na-K-ATPase activities were decreased by 35% along the entire nephron (P < 0.05). H-K-ATPase activity in CT also decreased by 35%. At 24 h, plasma bicarbonate was 20.5 +/- 0.5 meq/l (P < 0.05 vs. control) and CT H-ATPase and H-K-ATPase activities were 60% less than control (P < 0.01). By 72 h, plasma bicarbonate was 18.5 +/- 0.5 meq/l (P < 0.05); however, only CT H-ATPase activity continued to fall, averaging 75% less than control (P < 0.005). Hypocapnia had no effect on plasma aldosterone or potassium. These results demonstrate that chronic, but not acute, respiratory acidosis stimulates activity of both renal proton ATPases. By contrast, both acute and chronic respiratory alkalosis decrease the two renal proton pumps. The stimulatory effect of hypercapnia and the inhibitory effect of hypocapnia on the renal ATPases appear to be potassium and aldosterone independent. Although the precise mechanisms for these results are not known, a direct effect of PCO2, pH, or changes in bicarbonate delivery may be involved.

A 42-year-old female complained of exertional dyspnea and sleep disturbance. Her face was elongated longitudinally and the hard palate was narrow and high-arched. She has slender musculature and kyphoscoliosis. She was dysphonic and could not walk on her heels. Muscles in the face, upper arm, pelvic girdle and thigh were atrophic. Muscle weakness was detected in the neck, tibialis anterior, ilipsoas and other hip muscles, and ranged between 3- and 4 by the manual muscle testing. Electromyography showed definite myogenic abnormalities in all the muscle examined. No abnormality was found on the routine examination of blood, as was the motor and sensory nerve conduction velocity. Her vital capacity was 0.91 L, i.e., 35% of the expected value, suggesting a severe restrictive respiration. The arterial blood gas analysis revealed hypoxia, hypercapnia and desaturation. The blood gas data worsened when she was asleep, because of increased hypoventilation. Muscle biopsy of the biceps brachii showed a marked variation in the muscle fiber size. The type 1 muscle fiber was predominant. Many fibers contained nemaline rods and/or core-like structures. Some fibers contained both nemaline and core-like structures. This core-like structures were not stained with NADH-TR and ATPase reactions, and about 40-100 microns in the longitudinal extension. In this context, typical central cores have not been observed in the present case. No association of nemaline rods and core-like structures in the same muscle fiber has been reported, although a close relationship of the two structures has been suggested.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Studies of skinned fibers suggest that the rate of ATP turnover in skeletal muscle is depressed by acidosis. To examine whether this occurs in intact muscles, the ATP cost of isometric contractions was measured in ex vivo, arterially perfused cat biceps (predominantly fast-twitch) and soleus (slow-twitch) muscles under normocapnic (5% CO2) and hypercapnic (70% CO2) conditions. Hypercapnia decreased extracellular pH from 7.4 to 6.7 and intracellular pH from 7.1 to 6.5 (soleus) or 6.6 (biceps) but had no significant effect on the phosphocreatine (PCr)-to-ATP ratio in muscles at rest. The ATP cost of contraction was estimated from PCr changes, measured by gating the acquisition of 31P-nuclear magnetic resonance spectra to times before and after brief tetani (1 s at 100 Hz and 2 s at 25 Hz for biceps and soleus, respectively) or 10-s trains of twitches (2 and 1 Hz, respectively). Peak isometric force and the ATP cost of tetanic contraction (PCr/force x time integral) were not significantly different under hypercapnic compared with normocapnic conditions in either muscle (mean: 7.97 and 2.44 micromol x kg(-1) x s(-1) for biceps and soleus, respectively). Twitch force and the ATP cost per twitch decreased by nearly 50% during hypercapnic perfusion in both muscle types. The results indicate that hypercapnic acidosis has no significant effect on the ATPase rate per active myosin head in intact mammalian skeletal muscle.

The localization of proton pumps (H+-ATPase) in gill epithelia of rainbow trout [Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum)] was elucidated by immunofluorescence microscopy, using rabbit polyclonal antibodies against the 70 kDa subunit of H+-ATPase purified from clathrin-coated vesicles of bovine brain. In the gill epithelia of freshwater trout, the immunostaining was uniformly distributed along the lamellae and generally concentrated in apical regions. It is concluded, therefore, that H+-ATPase is located in the apex of both chloride cells and epithelial cells of freshwater fish. Hypercapnic treatment resulted in a non-polarized and restrictive distribution of H+-ATPase in the chloride cell. No fluorescent staining was observed in the gill epithelium of seawater-adapted rainbow trout, except in some unidentified anucleate surface material. The presence of the 70 kDa subunit in fish gill epithelia was confirmed by Western blot. These results support the proposed role of a proton pump in sodium uptake in freshwater fish and demonstrate that the H+-ATPase in fish gills is of the vacuolar type, antigenically similar to the H+-ATPase in mammalian brain and kidney.
