To quantify the relative amount of ouabain bound to different segments of the nephron after in vivo injection of the drug, an autoradiographic (ARG) study was carried out. After intrarenal injection of [3H]ouabain (120 nmol kg-1 body wt, 0.9-1.2 Ci mol-1) to intact kidneys of three anaesthetized dogs, 69-89% of renal Na,K-ATPase activity was inhibited. Sodium reabsorption decreased by 21-54%. Sections for ARG were obtained from tissue slices frozen in liquid Freon, freeze-dried and embedded in resin. Almost no loss of activity occurred during processing and background activity was negligible after 23-36 days' exposure. The density of [3H]ouabain grains per mu 2 of tubular walls was 3.8 times higher over medullary ascending limbs of Henle's loop (MAL) and distal cortical tubules (DT) as compared to proximal tubules (PT). In terms of tubular length, the grain density of MAL exceeded that of PT by merely 35% since the cross-sectional area of the MAL was only 25% of that of PT. In DT, grain density in terms of tubular length was lower than in PT by 10%. Based on previous estimate of the absolute ouabain-binding capacity in MAL of 60 fmol mm-1 tubule, the ouabain-binding capacity in PT and DT would equal 45 and 40 fmol mm-1, respectively. From composite microphotographs, the relative volume of PT was estimated to be 42% of the total renal volume. This means that 47% of the total renal ouabain-binding sites are localized to PT, whereas MAL and DT together contain 51%.

Sodium ion and potassium ion activated adenosinetriphosphatase, isolated from canine kidney, was reacted with N-[3H]ethylmaleimide while it was poised in three different conformations, ostensibly E2-P, E2, and E1, respectively. These assignments were made from a consideration of the particular concentrations of ligands in the respective alkylation mixtures. After a 30-min reaction, the remaining enzymatic activity was found to vary among these three different samples from 90 to 30% of that of unalkylated controls. In all cases, the alpha polypeptide was purified and subjected to digestion with cyanogen bromide, and in each digest the same two distinct radioactive peptides were identified and purified by gel filtration on a column of Sephadex LH-60. The incorporation of N-[3H]ethylmaleimide into one of these two peptides correlated closely with enzymatic inactivation, while the incorporation into the other was most extensive when the portion of the active site to which ATP binds was unoccupied. Alkylation of the residue within the latter peptide, however, does not result in inactivation of the enzyme. Both peptides were further purified by high-pressure liquid chromatography, and their amino-terminal sequences were determined by manual dansyl Edman or solid-phase techniques. The peptide containing the sulfhydryl protected by ATP has, as its amino terminus, the lysine that reacts exclusively with fluoresceinyl 5'-isothiocyanate [Farley, R. A., Tran, C. M., Carilli, C. T., Hawke, D., & Shively, J. E. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 9532-9535].

The Na,K-ATPase partially purified from porcine lens fiber cells (Sen and Pfeiffer, 1982) is stimulated fourfold (specific activity) by treatment with sodium thiocyanate. The optimum conditions are 1.5 M NaSCN, 2 mg protein ml-1 reaction mixture, pH 7.0, with incubation continued for 30 min at 23 degrees C. Sodium docecyl sulphate-gel electrophoresis and [3H]ouabain binding studies indicate that the extent of purity is not increased significantly by the procedure. The high-activity preparation has elevated phospholipid:protein and phosphatidylethanolamine:sphingomyelin ratios compared with the deoxycholate-extracted starting material. The cholesterol:phospholipid ratio and phospholipid acyl group composition are not significantly altered by SCN- treatment. Measurements of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene fluorescence polarization show that SNC- treatment produces approximately a 5 degrees C decrease in a membrane phase transition temperature. The phase transition also affects the activation energy of the Na,K-ATPase reaction and probably reflects the onset of the gel to liquid crystalline transition rather than the midpoint location of the transition per se. p-Nitrophenylphosphatase activity and Na,K-ATPase activity in the gel state membrane are also increased by SCN- treatment. Increased specific activity may result, in part, from a membrane fluidity-dependent enzyme activation but is also due, in part, to the expression of latent enzyme activity. Using ouabain-binding data and the specific activity of the activated preparation, it can be shown that the turnover number of the fiber cell enzyme is approximately 1% of that observed in most other tissues.

Sodium and potassium ion-transport adenosine triphosphatase from dog kidney was incubated with 0.4-2 mM Ca2+ at 23 degrees C for more than 2 min in the absence of monovalent inorganic cations, cooled to 0 degrees C, and phosphorylated from 1 mM Pi with 2.4 mM MgCl2. The resultant phosphoenzyme resembled that obtained by incubating the enzyme with K+ in place of Ca2+ in six respects. It was concluded that Ca2+ can occupy the monovalent cation-binding center for K+. The rate constant for release of Ca2+ from the dephosphoenzyme at 0 degrees C was 0.17 s-1. The rate of release from the phosphoenzyme was at least 7-fold slower. Phosphorylation stabilized the binding of Ca2+ to the enzyme in contrast to its destabilization of the corresponding K X enzyme complex. K-sensitive phosphoenzyme did not respond to free Ca2+. Thus Ca2+ was not easily accepted by nor released from the phosphoenzyme and would not be an effective substrate for transport. A selective barrier against Ca2+ between the monovalent cation binding center and the extracellular solution is proposed. Release of calcium from the dephosphoenzyme yielded a conformation that was not phosphorylated from Pi. The enzyme changed the conformation of its center for phosphorylation before or at the same time that it changed the conformation of its center for ion transport.

Sodium selenite has been shown to inhibit Na,K-ATPase. Glutathione, at sufficient excess, is able to prevent or reverse the inhibition. Dithiothreitol can also reverse much of the inhibition, but KCN cannot. Selenomethionine does not inhibit Na,K-ATPase. The interactions of sodium selenite with Na,K-ATPase and glutathione may aid in understanding the early events in selenium cataractogenesis.

The membrane-bound ATPase of Mycoplasma gallisepticum selectively hydrolyzed purine nucleoside triphosphates and dATP. ADP, although not a substrate, inhibited ATP hydrolysis. The enzyme exhibited a pH optimum of 7.0 to 7.5 and an obligatory requirement for divalent cations. Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide at a concentration of 1 mM inhibited 95% of the ATPase activity at 37 degrees C, with 50% inhibition occurring at 22 microM dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. Sodium or potassium (or both) failed to stimulate activity by greater than 37%. Azide (2.6 mM), diethylstilbestrol (100 micrograms/ml), p-chloromercuribenzoate (1 mM), and vanadate (50 microM) inhibited 50, 91, 89, and 60%, respectively. The ATPase activity could not be removed from the membrane without detergent solubilization. Although most detergents inactivated the enzyme, the dipolar ionic detergent N-dodecyl-N,N-dimethyl-3-ammonio-1-propanesulfonate (0.1%) solubilized approximately 70% of the enzyme with only a minor loss in activity. The extraction led to a twofold increase in specific activity and retention of inhibition by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and ADP. Glycerol greatly increased the stability of the solubilized enzyme. The properties of the membrane-bound ATPase are not consistent with any known ATPase. We postulate that the ATPase functions as an electrogenic proton pump.

Sodium transport of erythrocytes from normotensive and essential hypertensive subjects was evaluated by determining ouabain-sensitive and ouabain-insensitive sodium efflux rates, Na+-Li+ countertransport rates, Li+-K+ cotransport rate constants (lithium replacing sodium), intracellular sodium concentrations, and the number of Na+,K+-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) sites per erythrocyte. Subjects included men and women, blacks and whites. Hypertensive subjects had significantly higher sodium transport than did normotensive subjects for ouabain-sensitive sodium efflux (p less than 0.025) and Na+-Li+ countertransport (p less than 0.001). Sexual differences were noted for ouabain-sensitive (p less than 0.001) and ouabain-insensitive (p less than 0.001) sodium efflux, for intracellular sodium concentration (p less than 0.025), and for the Li+-K+ cotransport rate constant (p less than 0.005), all with higher values for men than for women. Racial differences were noted for ouabain-insensitive sodium efflux (p less than 0.005), Na+-Li+ countertransport (p less than 0.001), and the Li+-K+ cotransport rate constant (p less than 0.001); values were higher in whites than blacks for all three measurements. The number of [3H]ouabain binding sites was lower for blacks (p less than 0.001) and the intracellular sodium concentration was higher for blacks (p less than 0.001). Among all subjects, significant (p less than 0.001) correlations were found between intracellular sodium concentration and the number of Na+,K+-ATPase sites per erythrocyte (r = -0.78) and between the ouabain-sensitive sodium efflux per site and intracellular sodium concentration (r = 0.85, p less than 0.001).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Isolated porcine thyroid cells reorganize in culture into various types of multicellular structure, which differ in the orientation of cell polarity and in the surface of the cell layer accessible to molecules present in the culture medium. The types of structure are: (1) follicles: the basal pole is oriented toward the medium; (2) inside-out follicles or monolayers: the apical pole is facing the culture medium; (3) monolayers on a permeable substratum: both sides of the cell layer are accessible to the medium. Follicles can be transformed into inside-out follicles or monolayers and vice versa by manipulation of the external cell environment and without dissociating the cells. Cells concentrate iodide and respond to acute stimulation by thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) when the basal pole is accessible, and organification occurs only when cells form a closed follicular lumen. In porous-bottomed culture chambers monolayers are formed with the basal surface accessible to the medium and the apical compartment separated from the medium. Under these conditions 85-95% of the thyroglobulin produced is secreted apically and 5-15% basally. Thyrotropin stimulates (X3) apical accumulation without modifying secretion in the basal compartment. Sodium transport across the cell layer has been characterized. An amiloride-sensitive influx occurs at the apical pole whereas the Na+/K+-ATPase, localized in the basolateral membrane, mediates ouabain-sensitive efflux at the basal pole. The thyroid epithelium in culture appears therefore as a Na+-absorbing epithelium. The role of this transport in the stabilization of cell polarity is discussed.

Sodium transport in the papillary collecting duct (PCD) is poorly understood because of the inaccessibility of the distal nephron to micropuncture. Cultured rat renal papillary collecting tubule (RPCT) cells were investigated as a model for the PCD. RPCT cells have the morphologic appearance and hormonal responsiveness of the papillary collecting tubule. Sodium transport was studied using 22Na+ uptake measurements. Sodium uptake, measured at 23 degrees C in the absence of K+ and in the presence of 0.5 mM ouabain, was saturable at 100 mM extracellular NaCl, and half-maximal uptake occurred at 40 mM NaCl. The accumulation of 22Na+ appeared to be intracellular and was regulated by (Na+,K+)-ATPase activity, since activation of the Na+/K+ pump with K+ reduced 22Na+ accumulation by 90%. The time course for uptake was linear, showed only a single component, and followed first order kinetics with a t1/2 of 16 min. Amiloride and lithium inhibited 22Na+ influx, and a Dixon plot was linear, with a Ki of 16 microM amiloride. Chloride replacement of 1 mM furosemide, with or without K+, reduced uptake by only 20%. Sodium efflux from RPCT cells in the presence of ouabain showed a similar time course (t1/2, 15 min) and was also inhibited by amiloride (IC50 = 20 microM). Increased extracellular pH stimulated 22Na+ uptake and inhibited 22Na+ efflux. Addition of permeable organic acids, acetate, and bicarbonate, enhanced 22Na+ uptake. These results are consistent with Na+/H+ and Na+/Na+ exchange as mechanisms of 22Na+ uptake in the RPCT cell. This exchanger may be important in regulation of transepithelial sodium flux, maintenance of intracellular pH and cell volume, and hormonal stimulation of the papillary collecting duct.

Cultured A6 epithelial cells from toad kidney form confluent monolayers with tight junctions separating the apical and basolateral membranes. These two membrane domains have distinct compositions and functions. Thus, sodium is actively transported across the epithelia from the apical to basolateral surface via amiloride-inhibitable sodium channels located in the apical membrane. Sodium transport is stimulated by vasopressin, cholera toxin, and 8-bromo-cAMP applied to the basolateral surface where the receptors, adenylate cyclase, and Na+/K+-ATPase are located. In a previous study (Spiegel, S., Blumenthal, R., Fishman, P.H., and Handler, J.S. (1985) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 821, 310-318), we demonstrated that exogenous gangliosides inserted into the apical membrane of A6 epithelia do not redistribute to the basolateral membrane. With the ability to vary selectively the ganglioside composition of the apical membrane, we examined the effects of gangliosides on sodium transport in A6 epithelia. When the apical surface of A6 epithelia were exposed to exogenous gangliosides, sodium transport in response to vasopressin, cholera toxin, and 8-bromo-cAMP was enhanced compared to epithelia not exposed to gangliosides. The effect was observed with bovine brain gangliosides, NeuAc alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----3GalNAc beta 1----4[NeuAc alpha 2----3]Gal beta 1----4Glc beta 1----Cer (GD1a) and Gal beta-1----3GalNAc beta 1----4[NeuAc alpha 2----3]Gal beta 1----4Glc beta 1----Cer (GM1), but not with the less complex ganglioside, Neu-Ac alpha 2----3Gal beta 1----4Glc beta 1----Cer (GM3). We examined A6 cells for endogenous gangliosides and found that, whereas GM3 was a major ganglioside, only trace amounts of GM1 and GD1a were present. Based on cell surface and metabolic labeling studies, these gangliosides were synthesized by the cells and were present on the apical as well as the basolateral surface. Bacterial sialidase, which hydrolyzes more complex gangliosides to GM1, was used to modify the endogenous gangliosides on the apical surface; after sialidase treatment, the epithelia were more responsive to vasopressin, cholera toxin, and 8-bromo-cAMP. Thus, gangliosides may be modulators of sodium channels present in the apical membrane of epithelial cells.
