1. A Mg2+ independent, Ca(2+)-ATPase requiring high concentrations of Ca2+ (5 mM) for the activation, equally distributed in cuticle-muscular-hypodermis, genital organs and gastrointestinal tissues and mainly localized in 10,000 g pellet fraction, was identified in Setaria cervi, a bovine filarial parasite. 2. Filarial enzyme showed Km value of 3.33 mM for ATP as computed from the double reciprocal Lineweaver-Burk plot. 3. The enzyme could be completely solubilized by sonication with about 4-fold increase in specific activity of the enzyme. 4. The enzyme showed about 2-fold activation by the calmodulin fractions isolated from S. cervi and rat brain homogenates. 5. The enzyme was highly sensitive to inhibition with some phenothiazine derivatives. Trifluoperazine was observed to be the most potent inhibitor followed by promethazine and chlorpromazine. 6. Some anthelmintics viz. diethycarbamazine and centperazine were found to be highly potent inhibitors of the enzyme, significant inhibition of filarial Ca(2+)-ATPase was also observed with levamisole and suramine. 7. Studies indicate Ca(2+)-ATPase of S. cervi as a potential chemotherapeutic target.

Calmodulin is a protein with calcium-dependent binding sites. Binding of calcium ions induces changes in the conformation and activation of many enzymes such as adenylate cyclase, guanylate cyclase, ATPase. Neuroleptic drugs bind calmodulin. Trifluoperazine has a very high affinity for calmodulin. Tricyclic antidepressants and benzodiazepines also bind calmodulin. Binding of neuroleptics inhibits many biological phenomena such as lymphocyte endocytosis, platelets aggregation. When neuroleptics are administrated chronically, calmodulin could act in regulation of the receptors specially in the drug induced supersensitivity of striatum dopamine receptors. These experiments about the regulation of the receptors mediated by calmodulin have been performed ten years ago and their results were not confirmed later. Moreover, binding of calmodulin is not specific of neuroleptic drugs. The effects of neuroleptics on calmodulin, only observed in vitro or with animals, seem to be mainly related to structural properties of the drugs.

Trifluoperazine (TFP) 5, 10, 20 mg.kg-1 ig inhibited the formation of gastric ulcers induced by pyloric ligation, stress and indomethacin in rats and showed dose-effect dependence. TFP 10, 20 mg.kg-1 ig depressed the secretion of gastric juice, acid, and pepsin, but TFP 5, 10, 20 mg.kg-1 ig had no influence on the pepsin activity. TFP 20 mg.kg-1 ig inhibited the gastric H+, K(+)-ATPase activity of both stress and indomethacin ulcers in rats in vivo, and the gastric H+, K(+)-ATPase activity was also inhibited by TFP 50 mumol.L-1 in vitro. The results suggested that the inhibition of gastric H+, K(+)-ATPase activity and gastric secretion might be related to the antiulcer mechanism of TFP.

The first step towards ATP synthesis by the Ca2-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum is the phosphorylation of the enzyme by Pi. Phosphoenzyme formation requires both Pi and Mg2+. At 35 degrees C, the presence of a Ca2+ gradient across the vesicle membrane increases the apparent affinity of the ATPase for Pi more than 10-fold, whereas it had no effect on the apparent affinity for Mg2+. In the absence of a Ca2+ gradient, the phosphorylation reaction is inhibited by both K+ and Na+ at all Mg2+ concentrations used. However, in the presence of 1 mM Mg2+ and of a transmembrane Ca2+ gradient, the reaction is still inhibited by Na+, but the inhibition promoted by K+ is greatly decreased. When the Mg2+ concentration is raised above 2 mM, the enzyme no longer discriminates between K+ and Na+, and the phosphorylation reaction is equally inhibited by the two cations. Trifluoperazine, ruthenium red and spermidine were found to inhibit the phosphorylation reaction by different mechanisms. In the absence of a Ca2+ gradient, trifluoperazine competes with the binding to the enzyme of both Pi and Mg2+, whereas spermidine and ruthenium red were found to compete only with Mg2+. The data presented suggest that the enzyme has different binding sites for Mg2+ and for Pi.

1. The effects of sodium orthovanadate (vanadate. 10(-5) to 3 x 10(-4) M) on testicular capsule of the rat, and the modifications of these effects by the calcium chelator EGTA (2mM), the calcium entry blockers verapamil (5 X 10(-5) M), nifedipine (10(-5 M) and diltiazem (5 x 10(-5) M), the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase inhibitor ouabain, the Na+/Ca2+ exchange inhibitor amiloride, and the calmodulin antagonists trifluoperazine (10(-4) M) and W-7 (5 x 10(-5) M) have been studied. 2. Vanadate induced contraction of the rat testicular capsule in a dose-dependent way (ED50: 82.8 +/- 7.4 x 10(-6) M). 3. The contraction induced by vanadate (3 and 30 x 10(-5) M) were abolished by EGTA and not modified by verapamil, nifedipine, flunarizine or diltiazem. 4. Amiloride (1 and 5 x 10(-5) M), but not ouabain (5 x 10(-5) and 10(-4) M), inhibit in a dose-dependent way the contraction induced by two doses of vanadate (3 and 30 x 10(-5) M). 5. Trifluoperazine and W-7 significantly inhibit the contraction of testicular capsule to 3 and 30 x 10(-5) M vanadate.

A Ca2(+)-ATPase with a high affinity for free Ca2+ (apparent Km of 0.13 microM) was found and characterized in membrane fractions from porcine aortic and coronary artery smooth muscles in comparison with the plasma membrane Ca2(+)-pump ATPase purified from porcine aorta by calmodulin affinity chromatography. The activity of the high-affinity Ca2(+)-ATPase became enriched in a plasma membrane-enriched fraction, suggesting its localization in the plasma membrane. The enzyme was fully active in the absence of exogenously added Mg2+, but required a minute amount of Mg2+ for its activity as evidenced by the findings that it was fully active in the presence of 0.1 microM free Mg2+ but lost the activity in a reaction mixture containing trans-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid as a divalent cation chelator which has, unlike EGTA, high affinities for both Ca2+ and Mg2+. It was able to utilize a variety of nucleoside di- and triphosphates as substrates, such as ADP, GDP, ATP, GTP, CTP, and UTP, showing a broad substrate specificity. The activity of the enzyme was not modified by calmodulin (5, 10 micrograms/ml). Trifluoperazine, a calmodulin antagonist, had a partial inhibitory effect on the activity at 30 to 240 microM, but this inhibition could not be reproduced by a more specific calmodulin antagonist, W-7, indicating that this inhibition by trifluoperazine was not specific. Furthermore, the high-affinity Ca2(+)-ATPase activity was not modified either by low concentrations (0.5-9 microM) of vanadate or by 1-100 microM p-chloromercuribenzoic acid. Cyclic GMP, nitroglycerin, and nicorandil did not have any effect on the enzyme activity.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

(Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase enzyme activity of a purified plasma membrane preparation from a glucose responsive rat insulinoma, was characterized as Ca2(+)-dependent dephosphorylation of [gamma-32P]ATP. A high-affinity enzyme with a Km(ATP) ranging from 20 to 30 microM and a Km(Ca2+) of 1 microM was identified. Glucose inhibited this high-affinity enzyme in a dose-dependent manner, with no significant inhibition at a concentration between 0 and 5 mM, 50% inhibition at 13.3 mM and 94.5% inhibition at 30 mM. The inhibitory effect of glucose was immediate and rapidly reversible. The effect was stereospecific for the alpha-anomer. These findings support the concept that glucose acts directly at the beta-cell plasma membrane and is involved in the maintenance of elevated intracellular free calcium concentrations associated with insulin release by directly or indirectly inhibiting energy-dependent calcium efflux. Glyceraldehyde (20 mM) increased enzyme activity 3-fold, while other metabolic fuels had no effect. This suggests that inhibition of the enzyme is not an obligatory requirement for insulin release. Calmodulin stimulated the enzyme activity in calmodulin-depleted but not in undepleted membranes. Trifluoperazine (30-100 microM) inhibited (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase in a dose-dependent manner (14-61% activity) and the activity was also inhibited by vanadate (0.1-1.0 mM) and NaCl (150 mM).

We studied the effect of human acylphosphatase on the activity of human erythrocyte membrane Ca2(+)-ATPase. Both the acylphosphatase that is contained in hemolysate and the purified enzyme isolated from red blood cells were able to stimulate Ca2(+)-ATPase activity in erythrocyte membranes. Given the same acylphosphatase activity, however, the hemolysate showed higher stimulatory effect than the purified enzyme. Acylphosphatase stimulation was additive to that induced by calmodulin, thus indicating that acylphosphatase acts in a calmodulin-independent manner. Trifluoperazine, a calmodulin antagonist, did not inhibit acylphosphatase-induced stimulation of Ca2(+)-ATPase activity. Acylphosphatase significantly decreased the rate of Ca2+ influx into inside-out erythrocyte membrane vescicles, thus acting as Ca2+ pump inhibitor. Taken together these findings indicate that acylphosphatase is a soluble, non-calmodulin activator of erythrocyte membrane Ca2(+)-ATPase and might be involved in the control of calcium transport across the plasma membrane.

1. The effects of 11 calcium antagonists on (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, Mg2+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase activities of rat cortical synaptosomes were studied. 2. All the calcium antagonists studied had inhibitory effects on ouabain-sensitive (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, Mg2+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase activities in synaptosomes at high concentrations (10 or 100 microM). 3. Calcium antagonists such as trifluoperazine, flunarizine and cinnarizine had inhibitory effects on Ca2+-ATPase activity at low concentrations (1-10 microM). 4. Trifluoperazine and La3+ had inhibitory effects on Mg2+-ATPase activity at low concentration (1 microM). 5. Our results suggest that most of the calcium antagonists studied have little effects on neuronal (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, Mg2+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase activities at therapeutic dose ranges (1 microM or lower).

A membrane fraction enriched in endoplasmic reticulum was prepared from rat parotid glands by using sucrose-gradient centrifugation. The fraction showed a 10-fold increase in specific activity of NADPH: cytochrome c reductase activity over that of tissue homogenates and minimal contamination with plasma membranes or mitochondria. The endoplasmic reticulum fraction possessed both Mg2+ -stimulated ATPase as well as Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase [( Ca2+ + Mg2+)-stimulated ATPase]activity. The Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase required 2-5 mM-Mg2+ for optimal activity and was stimulated by submicromolar concentrations of free Ca2+. The Km for free Ca2+ was 0.55 microM and the average Vmax. was 60 nmol/min per mg of protein. The Km for ATP was 0.11 mM. Other nucleotides, such as GTP, CTP or ADP, could not substitute for ATP in supporting the Ca2+-activated nucleotidase activity. Increasing the K+ concentration from 0 to 100 mM caused a 2-fold activation of the Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase. Trifluoperazine, W7 [N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloronaphthalene-1-sulphonamide] and vanadate inhibited the enzyme. The concentration of trifluoperazine and vanadate required for 50% inhibition of the ATPase were 52 microM and 28 microM respectively. Calmodulin, cyclic AMP, cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate had no effect on the ATPase. The properties of the Ca2+, Mg2+ -ATPase were distinct from those of the Mg2+-ATPase, but comparable with those reported for the parotid endoplasmic-reticulum Ca2+-transport system [Kanagasuntheram & Teo (1982) Biochem. J. 208, 789-794]. The results suggest that the Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase is responsible for driving the ATP-dependent Ca2+ accumulation by this membrane.
