1. Insulin stimulates the activity of membrane-bound ATPase isolated from frog skeletal muscle and from rat brain. The increase in activity of the membrane-bound ATPase system isolated from frog ranged from 9-8 to 53% at concentrations of Na+ (25 mM), K+ (10 mM), and ATP (2 mM) similar to those in in vivo experiments conducted previously (Moore, 1973). The increased activity of the membrane-bound ATPase is, therefore, at least as great as the insulin-induced increase in Na efflux (10-38%) from intact cells (Moore, 1973). If the concentration of Na+ is lowered to 4 mM and that of ATP lowered to 0-5 mM albumin, and 10(6) M, the increase in ouabain-inhibitable ATPase activity can reach as high as 400%. 2. Ouabain, at a concentration (10(-3) M) sufficient to inhibit stimulation of the frog ATPase by increasing Na from 4 to 25 mM, completely blocked the stimulation of ATPase activity due to insulin. 3. At 2 mM-ATP, 100 mM-Na+, and 20 mM-K+, conditions which maximally activate the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, insulin did not increase the ATPase, activity. Stimulation was consistently seen at 10 mM-K+, 0-5 mM-ATP, and either 4 mM or 25 mM-Na+. 4. The finding that insulin does not stimulate the ATPase activity in conditions in which the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase component is maximally activated and especially the fact that ouabain can reproducibly inhibit insulin stimulation of the membrane-bound ATPase activity strongly suggest that interaction of insulin with its receptor upon the plasma membrane somehow stimulates the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase system (ouabain sensitive; ATP phosphohydrolase, EC (3.6.1.3). These results are consistent with previous studies of the effect of insulin upon Na efflux from intact cells (Moore, 1973) and support the previous conclusion that the component of Na efflux stimulated by insulin is active. The evidence suggests that insulin probably does not affect Vmax of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase system, but may increase the affinity of the enzyme system to one or more effectors, most likely Na+, ATP, and perhaps K+. 5. Oxidized glutathione (2-7 X 10(-6) M), 10(-6) M, 10(-7) M, and 10(-8) M cyclic AMP did not affect the ATPase activity 10(-6)Malbumin, and . 6. The results are consistent with the view that the Na pump, (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, is intimately involved with the physiological action of insulin and may be transducer between the binding of insulin to its receptor on the plasma membrane and the cellular actions of insulin.

The concentration of GSSG was determined in the erythrocytes of Merino sheep. These sheep were grouped according to erythrocyte potassium type, haemoglobin type, and GSH type. It was found that haemoglobin and potassium type were not correlated with GSSG concentration; however, GSSG concentration was found to be significantly correlated with GSH concentration. This relationship may explain previously reported differences in ATPase activity and may reflect further metabolic differences in the erythrocytes of GSH-high and GSH-low type Merino sheep.

The uptake of oxidized glutathione (GSSG) into inside-out membrane vesicles of Wistar rat erythrocytes was studied. Uptake was ATP dependent, into an osmotically active space, and saturable. Analysis of saturable ATP-dependent GSSG uptake showed two affinities for GSSG [concentration for half-maximal velocity (K1/2 1), 26 microM; K 1/2 2, 4 mM; maximum transport rate (Vmax 1), 100 pmol.mg-1.min-1; Vmax 2, 360 pmol.mg-1.min-1]. Interactions of the high-affinity system with different organic compounds were studied. Leukotriene C4, bromosulfophthalein-S-glutathione, and 2,4-dinitrophenyl-S-glutathione were effective inhibitors. In addition, anionic nonglutathione conjugates, like indocyanine green, rose bengal, dibromosulfophthalein, and sulfated or glucuronidated (divalent) bile acids inhibited GSSG transport. Monovalent bile acids had no influence on GSSG transport. Inhibition by 2,4-dinitrophenyl-S-glutathione [inhibition constant (Ki) = 2.6 microM] and sulfated glycolithocholic acid (Ki = 2.9 microM) was purely competitive. The use of adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) inhibitors suggested a resemblance with E1E2-type ATPase. Vesicles of erythrocytes isolated from the TR- rat, a mutant rat strain with a defective biliary secretion of organic anions, have an impaired uptake of GSSG (Vmax was decreased 2-fold). In conclusion, erythrocytes have an ATP-dependent organic anion transport system that can be inhibited by a broad range of organic anions. This system is very similar if not identical to the hepatocanalicular ATP-dependent organic anion transporter.

The activities of Mg(2+)-dependent and Na(+)-K(+)-stimulated ATPase in homogenates of rat retina were measured in the presence of increasing concentrations of oxidized glutathione (GSSG). The Mg(2+)-ATPase was not inhibited by GSSG at any of the concentrations tested. The Na(+)-K(+)-stimulated ATPase was not inhibited by 1 mM GSSG, but its activity was decreased by 20 and 35%, respectively, in the presence of 5 and 10 mM GSSG. Other enzymatic measurements using supernatant fractions of rat retina showed that 1-10 mM GSSG did not inhibit the activities of hexokinase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, or glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. These results suggest that GSSG is not likely to exert significant deleterious changes on cellular processes, at least in cells and tissues in which normal glutathione (GSH) concentration is 2 mM or lower.

Reactive O2 species appear to be generated both during hypoxia and at reoxygenation, but it has not been established whether these species interact with heart tissue and cause injury. Oxidative changes were evaluated in isolated rat heart perfused with Krebs-Henseleit medium containing 10 mM glucose and 2.5 mM calcium. After 5-10 min hypoxia, tissue glutathione (GSH) decreased while glutathione disulfide (GSSG), protein carbonyls, and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) increased compared with controls. Similarly, sarcolemmal and sarcoplasmic reticular Ca-ATPase activity (an enzyme susceptible to oxidative inactivation) decreased in response to 10 min hypoxia. These changes were more pronounced after 60 min of hypoxia when protein-GSH mixed disulfides were also increased. There were no further oxidative changes after 4 min reoxygenation when the release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was maximal. Myocardial protein thiol and alpha-tocopherol contents were not significantly changed by either hypoxia or reoxygenation. Mitochondria also exhibited oxidative changes but with more pronounced increases in GSSG and mixed disulfides. There was no change in GSH or GSSG efflux into the coronary effluent during hypoxia, although, in parallel with LDH release, both increased after reoxygenation. Diamide (200 microM), t-butylhydroperoxide (20 microM), or purine (2.3 mM) + xanthine oxidase (0.01 U/ml) were infused for 10 min. Except for large diamide-induced changes in protein thiols and mixed disulfides, the magnitude of the changes produced by these oxidants was similar to those produced by hypoxia. These data show that changes consistent with oxidative processes occur in whole heart and mitochondria in response to hypoxia. The absence of marked signs of oxidation at reoxygenation suggest that enzyme release at this time is unrelated to oxidative stress.

S-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)glutathione (Dnp-SG) ATPase of human erythrocytes has been purified to apparent homogeneity by affinity chromatography. In reduced denaturing gels, the subunit Mr value of Dnp-SG ATPase was found to be 38,000. Dinitrophenyl glutathione (Dnp-SG) stimulated the hydrolysis of ATP by the purified enzyme whereas oxidized glutathione (GSSG) did not, indicating that Dnp-SG and GSSG are transported from the erythrocytes by different transporters. Results of Western blot analysis using the antibodies against Dnp-SG ATPase subunits indicated that the enzyme was expressed in human liver, lung, placenta and pancreas.

Previous studies from this laboratory have shown that the normal lens can tolerate exposure to 0.05 mM H2O2 without apparent damage and that this is due in part to an active glutathione redox cycle. The present studies were designed to investigate the role of glutathione reductase in protecting cation transport systems in the lens against potentially damaging effects of peroxide. Pre-treatment of rabbit lenses with 0.5 mM 1.3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea (BCNU), a relatively specific inhibitor of glutathione reductase, brought about a 71% inhibition of the enzyme in the capsule-epithelia of the lenses. Subsequent exposure of the lenses for 3 hr to a constant level of 0.05 mM H2O2 in culture medium produced significant accumulation of oxidized glutathione (GSSG) in the lens epithelium and severe effects on the electrolyte balance in the lens, on the activity of Na, K-ATPase and on the accumulation and efflux of 86Rb. The effects included a 35% decrease in activity of Na, K-ATPase, a 10 mM increase in the concentration of Na+ and an 8 mM decrease in K+. BCNU-H2O2 treatment also resulted in loss of transparency of the lenses in the form of vacuoles present in the anterior, subcapsular region, encircling the entire periphery of the organ near the germinative zone of the epithelium. Treatment with either BCNU or 0.05 mM H2O2 alone had only minimal effects on accumulation of GSSG in the epithelium, on lens transparency and on the parameters of cation transport which were investigated. When lenses were treated with 0.05 mM H2O2 alone and then placed in normal medium to measure the accumulation of 86Rb it was found that the cation pump was stimulated 20% above the normal level of activity. Levels of H2O2 higher than 0.05 mM without BCNU pre-treatment produced significant inhibition of Na, K-ATPase and the effects of 0.3 mM H2O2 on cation transport and GSSG accumulation were comparable to those of BCNU-0.05 mM H2O2. While inhibition of the activities of glutathione reductase and Na, K-ATPase in the lenses was found to be irreversible, a partial recovery of the Na+ level and nearly complete recovery of the K+ level were observed when treated lenses were cultured in normal medium for an additional 6 hr. In addition, the rate of efflux of 86Rb which was significantly faster from the BCNU-H2O2-treated lenses compared with the controls, was found to return to the control value during the recovery period.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

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.

Inside-out erythrocyte membranes attached to polycationic beads manifested glutathione disulfide (GSSG)-stimulated ATPase activity. A Lineweaver-Burk plot of the ATPase activity as a function of GSSG concentration was biphasic and gave apparent Km values of 0.13 mM and 2.0 mM. These kinetics are similar to those reported for the ATP-requiring GSSG-transport systems in human erythrocytes and for the GSSG-stimulated ATPase activity in the plasma membranes of rat hepatocytes. Erythrocyte membranes that were depleted of extrinsic proteins were solubilized in 0.5% Triton X-100. Affinity chromatography on S-hexylglutathione-Sepharose 6B, with elution by a linear gradient of S-hexyl-glutathione, resulted in the resolution of two peaks of enzyme activity. One enzyme, which was eluted at approximately 0.5 mM S-hexylglutathione, had a high affinity for GSSG (apparent Km of 150 microM) and for ATP (80 microM). The other enzyme, which was eluted at approximately 1 mM S-hexylglutathione, had a low affinity for GSSG (apparent Km of 2.0 mM) and ATP (140 microM). GSSG-independent Mg2+-ATPase, Ca2+-dependent Mg2+-ATPase and Na+, K+-dependent Mg2+-ATPase were undetectable in the fractions. Addition of Ca2+, ouabain, or vanadate neither activated nor inhibited the activities, further indicating that the enzymes are distinguishable from ion-pumping ATPases. The enzymes required GSSG for activation; reduced glutathione (GSH) was ineffective. The ATPase activity of the high-Km enzyme was inhibited by addition of p-chloromercuribenzoate, N-ethylmaleimide, and iodoacetamide and was activated by treatment with dithiothreitol, whereas the ATPase activity of the low-Km enzyme was not modified by these thiol reagents. The properties of the enzymes are similar to those of ATP-dependent GSSG-transport systems in human erythrocytes, suggesting that these ATPases may function in the active transport of GSSG.

Decreased glutathione levels in the ocular lens have been invoked as a possible cause for the decreased lenticular Na+-K+-ATPase in diabetes because both are corrected by aldose reductase inhibitors, and the Na+-K+-ATPase is known to be susceptible to oxidation inactivation. Because an analogous Na+-K+-ATPase defect that is prevented by aldose reductase inhibitors has been described in diabetic peripheral nerve, we examined the effect of streptozocin (STZ) diabetes and aldose reductase inhibition on reduced (GSH) and oxidized (GSSG) glutathione levels in crude homogenates of rat sciatic nerve. Neither GSSG nor GSH levels were altered by 2 or 8 wk of untreated diabetes or by aldose reductase inhibition. Because the defect in Na+-K+-ATPase is fully expressed by 4 wk of STZ diabetes, we conclude that altered glutathione redox state plays no detectable role in the pathogenesis of this defect in diabetic peripheral nerve.
