The enhancing effect of low concentrations (eg, 8 microM) of bis(4-fluoro-3-nitrophenyl)sulfone (FNS) on 30S dynein ATPase activity is increased when 1 mM dithiothreitol (DTT) is present. The effect of FNS + DTT is optimal at pH 7.5. Activation of the latent ATPase activity of 30S dynein by FNS + DTT is partially prevented by 1--3 microM ATP. Adenylylimidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP) is less effective than ATP, while beta, gamma-methylene-adenosine triphosphase (AMP-PCP), though a much stronger inhibitor of ATPase activity than AMP-PNP, does not protect against enhancement. These results demonstrate the presence of high-affinity ATP-binding site on 30S dynein.

Na+-K+-ATPase was inhibited by 1 times 10-4M ethacrynic acid and mercuderamide, and by 1 times 10-3M hydrochlorothiazide and furosemide. A modification of Gilman's (1970) protein displacement assay has been used to measure c-AMP levels in toad bladder epithelial cells. Vasopressin (50 mU/ml) caused c-AMP levels to rise from 4.27 to 9.27 pmol/mg protein. Ethacrynic acid had no effect on cellular c-AMP levels after 10 min exposure to the drug, but at 90 min caused a reduction of both basal and vasopressin stimulated levels. Furosemide caused an apparent rise in c-AMP levels, dilution ratio measurements indicated interference by this drug in the assay procedure, mecuderamide also caused substantial interference with the c-AMP assay. Hydrochlorothiazide had no effect on basal or hormone stimulated levels of c-AMP. It was concluded that the inhibition of sodium transport produced by ethacrynic acid in toad bladder is probably due to inhibition of adenylate cyclase, an effect not shared by other dieuretics.

At least three mechanical changes characterize the response of cardiac muscle to agents that enhance cyclic AMP production. In common with other inotropic interventions, tension is augmented and the rate of tension rise is increased. The third response, acceleration of the rate of relaxation, is characteristic of the actions of beta-adrenergic agonists. These mechanical effects can be attributed to changes in (1) the amount of Ca2+ released during systole, (2) the rate of Ca2+ release at the onset of systole, and (3) the rate at which Ca2+ is reaccumulated by the sarcoplasmic reticulum at the end of systole. The ability of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinases to phosphorylate the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum in vitro parallels stimulation of both Ca2+ transport and Ca2+-activated ATPase. The phosphoprotein formed in the presence of cyclic AMP and protein kinase has the chemical characteristics of a phosphoester, contains mostly phosphoserine, and has an electrophoretic mobility in SDS polyacrylamide gels that corresponds to a protein of 22,000 daltons. This 22,000-dalton protein, tentatively named phospholamban, thus differs from the acyl phosphooprotein formed by the Ca2+-transport ATPase, which as an apparent molecular weight of 90,000 to 100,000 daltons. Phospholamban has not been found in fast skeletal muscle, nor is Ca2+ transport accelerated by cyclic AMP and protein kinase in sarcoplasmic reticulum from these muslces which do not respond to beta-adrenergic agonists with accelerated relaxation. It thus appears likely that phosphorylation of phospholamban correlates both with an increased rate of Ca2+ transport by cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum in vitro and accelerated relaxation in the intact myocardium. Preliminary findings are consistent with the view that phosphorylation of phospholamban may be related to other actions on Ca2+ fluxes brought about by agents which activate adenylate cyclase in the myocardium, but these interpretations must remain speculative pending more definitive studies.

Ethanol and other alcohols stimulate adenylate cyclase activity in various tissues and potentiate its stimulation by some hormones. This effect, however, usually requires a high alcohol concentration. In some cases, an unknown substance, different from cyclic AMP, was formed from ATP in the presence of an alcohol and mimicked stimulation of adenylate cyclase. Ethanol inhibits phosphodiesterase activity in some tissues. In the brain, only the low affinity enzyme of pons-medulla region is inhibited. ATP levels and ATPase activities are affected by ethanol treatment and this can lead to secondary changes of the cyclic AMP levels. Cyclic AMP levels in the brain and liver are decreased by acute ethanol administration while levels in other organs are unchanged. High doses of ethanol inhibit the postdecapitation-induced rise of cyclic AMP level in the brain while low ethanol doses potentiate the postdecapitation rise of cyclic AMP in the lower brain stem. Chronic ethanol administration increases basal adenylate cyclase activity and cyclic AMP levels, and decreases stimulation of adenylate cyclase by norepinephrine in the brain. In contrast, the stimulation of cyclic AMP formation by norepinephrine and other biogenic amines is increased in the brain of ethanol-withdrawn animals. Chronic administration of ethanol affects also cyclic AMP levels and cyclic AMP formation in some peripheral organs. Cyclic AMP might be involved in ethanol-induced fatty liver, since it activates hepatic lipase and might also participate in the fatty acid oxidation.

1. A study is presented of the mitochondrial NADH content during controlled (state 4) and active (state 3) pyruvate oxidation by blowfly flight-muscle mitochondria. The results confirm and extend those of an earlier study (Hansford, 1972), which indicated an increased reduction in state 3. Nicotinamide nucleotide is normally highly oxidized during state 4; however, there can be substantial reduction in the presence of carnitine or high concentrations of proline, or on lengthy incubation in the presence of either of the systems used to generate intramitochondrial tricarboxylate-cycle intermediate. 2. Omission of phosphate leads to substantial reduction and this can be reversed by adding phosphate or acetate. 3. Estimations of NAD-+ and NADH in fly thoraces show a marked increase in NADH on flight, tending to corroborate the results of mitochondrial experiments and testifying to the importance of dehydrogenase activation in this tissue. 4. Determination of intramitochondrial adenine nucleotides reveals a total of 4-5 nmol/mg of protein, and an ADP content of less than 0.1 nmol/mg during state 4 oxidation of pyruvate and proline. ATP content is found to increase slowly during state 4 and this is attributed to the net phosphorylation of AMP. 5. The uncoupling agent carbonyl cyanide p=trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone leads to hydrolysis of some, but not all, of the mitochondrial ATP. Studies of mitochondrial ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase), measured by external pH change, show that it is inactive unless the mitochondria are allowed to respire for several minutes in state 4 in the presence of phosphate before the addition of carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone. It is suggested that phosphate uptake is essential for maximal ATPase activity. 6. Studies of the fluorescence of the fluorochrome 8-anilino-1-naphthalensulphonic acid suggest that the energy status of the mitochondrion is high during state 4-pyruvate oxidattion, and decrease slightly in state 3. The implications of these findings are discussed.

The activity of adenylate cyclase and the steady state levels of cyclic AMP (cAMP) were determined in stria vascularis (SV) and organ of Corti (OC) of the guinea pig cochlea. The activities are 12 and 19 pmoles/mg dry weight/minute for OC and SV, respectively. The activity was increased two to four-fold by NaF. The base level of cAMP is 4.2 and 4.4 nmoles/g dry weight in OC and SV, respectively. In contrast to brain, neither ischemia nor barbiturates produced major changes of the steady state levels of cAMP. No in vitro effect of cAMP upon the state of activation of glycogen phosphorylase was noticeable in either tissue. cAMP did not exert a significant in vitro inhibition of strial Na+K+-ATPase. Perilymphatic perfusion of cAMP (10-3 M) and of theophylline (5 times 10-3 M) did not produce changes in the endolymphatic potential (EP), but dibutyryl cAMP (10-3 M) led to a significant increase of EP. The alpha adrenergic blocking agent, phentolamine, produced very complex changes of the cochlear potentials. A possible role of catecholamines and cAMP in the secretory phenomena of the SV and in the transduction and/or transmission processes of the auditory sense organ are discussed.

Salmonella typhimurium, an organism that invades intestinal mucosa but does not elaborate a traditional enterotoxin, evokes ileal secretion by causing alterations in active sodium and chloride transport mechanisms. To evaluate the possibility that these changes in transport might be related to the adenylate cyclase-cyclic AMP or NA+-K+-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) systems, mucosal adenylate cyclase, cAMP phosphodiesterase, Na+-K+ and Mg++ ATPase activities, and cAMP concentrations were measured in rabbit ileal loops infected with two strains of S. typhimurium. Strain TML invades the mucosa and evokes fluid secretion whereas strain SL 1027 invades but does not evoke secretion. Cholera toxin-stimulated loops were also studied. When compared to control loops, TML-infected mucosa demonstrated a marked increase in adenylate cyclase activity, in cAMP concentration, and no change in phosphodiesterase or ATPase activities. SL 1027-infected mucosa demonstrated no change in either adenylate cyclase or ATPase activities. Indomethacin pretreatment of cyclase activation. In contrast, indomethacin pretreatment of cholera toxin exposed animals resulted in only a partial reduction of secretion while not altering the stimulation of adenylate cyclase. These results suggest that: (1) S. typhimurium causes ileal secretion by stimulating adenylate cyclase; (2) mucosal invasion alone (SL 1027) is not sufficient to activate adenylate cyclase, and (3) Na+-K+-ATPase does not appear to be involved in salmonella-induced secretion. The mechanism of salmonella activation of adenylate cyclase is unclear but apparently differs from that of cholera toxin in that it is inhibited by indomethacin. This might be explained by the participation of prostaglandins in the salmonella activation process.

The effect of the boiled supernatant on synaptosomal adenyl cyclase activity of rat cerebral cortex was investigated. The boiled supernatant markedly increased the accumulation of cyclic AMP in synaptosomes when added to adenyl cyclase system by a mechanism presumably unrelated to inhibition of cyclic AMP phosphod iesterase or adenosine triphosphatase. Magnesium ion was required for synaptosomal adenyl cyclase activity and its stimulation by the boiled supernatant. The result discerned by doubl reciprocal plots showed an increase in Vmax value of adenyl cyclase by addition of the boiled supernatant without significantly altering the affinity for substrate. The enzyme activity was not stimulated by dopamine, histamine and serotonin in either the absence and presence of the boiled supernatant.

Cyclic 3',5-AMP in vitro increased the activity of Na+, K+-ATPase, isolated from cortex and medulla of rabbit kidney. Maximal stimulating effect was observed in kidney cortex at 10(-6) M concentration and in medulla at 10(-4) M concentration of 3',5'-AMP. Under these conditions the enzymatic activity was increased by 24.6 +/- 4.1% and 27.9 +/- 7.7%, respectively. These data suggest that Na+, K+-ATPase, activated by cyclic 3',5'-AMP, is directly involved in the mechanism of Na+ transport in cells of osmoregulating organs.

Morphologically intact plasma membranes from guinea pig ventricles were obtained by exposing isolated cell segments to osmotic shock, followed by extraction of actomyosin in 1 M KC1. These preparations contained approximately 1/6 of the protein and 5-10 percent of the mitochondrial markers present in the original cell preparation. Both adenylate cyclase and (Na++K+)-activated ATPase activities were enriched 3-4 fold. The receptor for epinephrine stimulation of adenylate cyclase was retained. The "basal" ATPase activity of 5-6 mumoles of Pi/mg/hr, measured in 120 mM NaC1 or KC1, was approximately doubled in 100 mM NaC1+20 mM KC1. This increment, the (Na++K+)-activated ATPase, was abolished by 10(-5) M ouabain, the Ki for ouabain being approximately 3x10(-7) M. Adenylate cyclase, which had a basal activity of approximately 0.33 nmole of cyclic AMP produced/min/mg of protein, was significantly stimulated by both l-epinephrine and NaF. Half-maximal stimulation was seen at approximately 5x10(-6) M l-epinephrine. Increasing Ca2+ in the range between 10(-7) and 10(-3) M inhibited basal, l-epinephrine-, and NaF-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities. Basal rates of cyclic AMP production were more sensitive to Ca2+ than was l-epinephrine-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity, so that l-epinephrine stimulation was increased from approximately 60 percent in 0.5 mM ethylene glycol bis (beta-aminoethyl ether) N,N'-tetraacetic acid to approximately 150 percent in 10(-7)M Ca2+ and 400 percent in 10(-5) M Ca2+. The inhibitory effect of Ca2+ on adenylate cyclase activity may represent a negative feedback mechanism by which eelevation of intracellular Ca2+ concentration lowers cellular levels of cyclic AMP and thus reduces Ca2+ influx into the myocardium.
