The ionic conductance, Gt, through the isolated human amnion is the sum of several conductances: Gt = Gp + Gc + Gs. Gp, the paracellular conductance is: Gp = Gj + Gjc (Gj is due to the intercellular channel and Gjc due to the electrical coupling factor); Gc, the cellular conductance is: Gc = Gc1. Gc2/Gc1 + Gc2 with Gc1 = GAC + GAC1 and Gc2 = GM + GM1, GAC and GM being the dependent conductances on amniotic cavity (AC) and maternal (M) sides; GAC1 and GM1 being the leak conductances on AC and M. Gp and Gc are due to epithelial cell layer and Gs (conductance in a series) is due to the other layers. The utilization of metabolic inhibitors (ouabain, amiloride, DNP) allows one to split up Gt into various components. In this study, the action of magnesium and taurine (TA) was studied on the various conductances in Hanks' solution modified by metabolic inhibitors. In Hanks' solution: + ouabain, Mg and TA increased GAC1 and GM1; - + amiloride, Mg increased GAC and GM but TA had no effect; - + ouabain + amiloride, Mg and TA increased GK. In this way, Mg appears to have an action on the ATPase and on the regulation of the Na+ and K+ channels, but TA has no effect on the ATPase but TA appears to govern the viability of the Na+ and K+ channels. Moreover, TA and Mg have a compensatory effect on GAC1, GM1 and Gjc in Hanks' solution, but their actions are not cumulative.

It was shown recently that the antiaggregating agent ticlopidine and some of its analogues inhibit the energy-conserving mechanism in mitochondria [Abou-Khalil et al., Biochem. Pharmac. 33, 3893 (1984)]. In the present investigation, the mechanism of inhibition by these drugs was investigated by studying their effects on key reactions of oxidative phosphorylation. Liver mitochondria were isolated from Sprague-Dawley male rats, and the interactions of ticlopidine and six of its analogues with those key reactions were tested. We found: The transport of phosphate, glutamate and succinate into mitochondria was not affected significantly by ticlopidine or any of its analogues; however, it was inhibited by both mersalyl and N-ethylmaleimide as expected. There was no inhibitory effect of the tested drugs on the mitochondrial [3H]ADP translocation activity; rather, ticlopidine produced a concentration-dependent increase of that activity, reaching 54% with 20 micrograms/ml. Ticlopidine and its analogue, PCR 5325, increased the latent ATPase activity by about 400% and the DNP-dependent ATPase by about 50%. Also, PCR 4099 caused a 115% increase in the latent activity, whereas the effects of the remaining analogues varied from slight activation to slight inhibition. Under nonphosphorylation conditions, the mitochondrial H+ extrusion resulting from succinate oxidation was inhibited by ticlopidine in a concentration-dependent manner reaching a quasi total inhibition with 40 micrograms/ml. While PCR 5325 gave results similar to ticlopidine, PCR 4099 was less inhibitory and the other analogues were ineffective. These data indicate that the inhibitory action caused by ticlopidine and some of its analogues on oxidative phosphorylation does not reside at one particular site in the mitochondrial membrane; rather, the inhibition seems to be the outcome of profound alterations in mitochondrial ADP translocase, latent ATPase, and proton translocation in the respiratory chain.

The in vitro effects of piperine on three bioenergetic reactions namely, oxidative phosphorylation, ATPase activity and calcium transport by isolated rat liver mitochondria have been investigated. Piperine was found to inhibit state 3 and DNP-stimulated respiration by mitochondria respiring with glutamate plus malate or succinate as substrates. The I50 values of piperine on oxidative phosphorylation in the presence of glutamate plus malate and succinate were 22 and 12 micrograms/mg mitochondrial protein respectively. With HTM preparations, the oxidation of added NADH and succinate was depressed by piperine while ascorbate plus TMPD oxidation was slightly affected. Piperine did not inhibit the mitochondrial ATPase activity induced by DNP, but by itself exerted stimulating activity on this enzyme. Piperine was also found to diminish calcium uptake and to facilitate the release of accumulated calcium by the mitochondria incubated with succinate or ATP. These results suggest that piperine inhibits mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation at the level of respiratory chain, and the inhibitory site(s) is in the segment(s) ahead of cytochrome C. The mechanism of the piperine-induced ATPase activity is not known; but the effect of piperine on calcium transport is likely to be consequential to the effects of this compound on the mitochondrial respiratory chain and ATPase activity.

4-Chlorobiphenyl (4-CB) is converted by the microsomal cytochrome P-450 system to its hydroxylated metabolite 4-chloro-4'-biphenylol (4'-OH-4-CB). A study of the effects of 4-CB and 4'-OH-4-CB on the energy-linked functions of rat liver mitochondria was carried out. 4'-OH-4-CB was more effective than 4-CB in causing the inhibition of state 3 respiration of mitochondria with both succinate and glutamate/malate. As a substrate specificity, with glutamate/malate the inhibition by each compound (ID50, 30 microM for 4'-OH-4-CB, 76 microM for 4.CB) was more significant than that with succinate (ID50, 200 microM for 4'-OH-4-CB, never reached 50% for 4-CB). From the effects on DNP-stimulated respiration, it was indicated that the electron transport from both glutamate/malate and succinate to oxygen was more sensitively inhibited by 4'-OH-4-CB than by 4-CB, with the same substrate specificity as for state 3 respiration (i.e. the inhibition by both compounds was greater with glutamate/malate than with succinate). Since there existed a good coincidence in the inhibition between state 3 and DNP-stimulated respiration with both substrates, the inhibition of state 3 respiration by both compounds was due to the inhibition of the electron transport. With succinate, the uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation by both compounds was observed, the extent of which was greater with 4'-OH-4-CB than with 4-CB, although the uncoupling by higher concentrations of 4'-OH-4-CB was masked because of the increased inhibition in respiration. With glutamate/malate, the uncoupling action of 4-CB was largely, while that of 4'-OH-4-CB was completely, masked by progressive respiratory inhibition. 4'-OH-4-CB was more effective than 4-CB in causing stimulation of latent ATPase in mitochondria. These results indicate that both 4-CB and 4'-OH-4-CB impair mitochondrial energy-transducing functions, but 4'-OH-4-CB is more effective than 4-CB in damaging these functions. Thus, the product of the metabolism is more biologically active than the parent compound. The impairment of energy-linked mitochondrial reactions by the metabolite as well as of the parent compound may be an important factor in the toxicity of 4-CB.

A Ca++-dependent secretion of norepinephrine ([3H]NE) was evoked in adrenergic nerve endings in rat heart ventricle slices incubated in a modified Krebs-HCO3 medium containing choline Cl as the replacement for NaCl (Ch+-Ca++). Exogenous ATP inhibited secretion and lithium ion, a known inhibitor of NE uptake dependent upon Mg++-ATPase activity in vesicles (but not ouabain) prevented the response to ATP (Bogdanski, 1983,1986). It was suggested that vesicles attached to the axolemma recaptured [3H]NE from the extracellular fluid. This report indicates that other known inhibitors of uptake in isolated vesicles also inhibited the response to ATP in the attached vesicles. Included were two inhibitors of Mg++-ATPase activity, N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD), and the proton transporters 2,4-dinitrophenol (2,4-DNP 1.0 mM) and chlorpromazine (CPZ). Potassium ionophores (valinomycin with 2,4-DNP 0.1 mM, and nigericin) and a pH neutralizing reagent for vesicles (NH3 from ammonium sulfate in solution) were also effective. The uptake inhibitors, except 2,4-DNP, could also increase the rate of depletion of stored NE and its deamination in nonsecreting nerve endings incubated in Krebs-HCO3 (KRB) medium. Valinomycin by itself stimulated uptake in the presence of ATP. It is suggested that mechanisms of uptake and retention of NE in isolated vesicles (symposium (1982) Fed. Proc. 41:2742-2780) apply to the axoplasmic vesicles as well. Thus, the activity of Mg++-ATPase drives proton transport to establish the electrochemical gradients of H+, which drive the transport of NE. A lowering of the gradients can mobilize amines and evoke secretion.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

1. The endogenous noradrenaline content of cat spleen slices was markedly reduced when the slices were incubated at 37 degrees C in a medium in which sodium was replaced by sucrose, lithium, choline or potassium. Depletion of tissue noradrenaline was accounted for by its release into the incubating medium. At an external sodium concentration of 20 mM, about 50% depletion was obtained in 2 hours.2. The enhanced release induced by sodium deprivation occurred in the absence of calcium, with or without ethyleneglycol-bis (beta-aminoethyl ether) N,N' tetraacetic acid. Manganese potentiated release, while magnesium was without effect.3. Ouabain caused a dose-dependent release of noradrenaline which was partially calcium-dependent. Removal of potassium from the incubation medium caused some release, which was potentiated in 25 mM sodium Krebs solution or by ouabain.4. At 4 degrees C, the release did not occur in sodium-free medium.5. Dinitrophenol did not affect the loss of noradrenaline caused by sodium withdrawal. Iodoacetic acid and N-ethylmaleimide caused a time-dependent depletion of noradrenaline. Tetracaine caused release and partly opposed the release caused by sodium deprivation. Tetrodotoxin had no effect. Guanethidine, but not phenoxybenzamine, released noradrenaline and potentiated the release induced by sodium withdrawal.6. The rate of release of (3)H-noradrenaline from reserpine-treated spleen slices was not altered by sodium withdrawal.7. Uptake-retention of (3)H-noradrenaline in slices depleted of their endogenous noradrenaline content by sodium deprivation was about 60% of the control slices. This was effectively blocked by cocaine. Release of (3)H-noradrenaline evoked by high potassium from both control and treated slices was calcium-dependent.8. It is suggested that sodium-potassium-activated ATPase maintains the integrity of the axonal membrane, and any procedure which depresses the activity of the enzyme or the sodium-potassium pump would cause transmitter release by causing temporary disturbance in the membrane. Evidence is presented to suggest that vesicles depleted of their endogenous noradrenaline content by sodium deprivation are re-used for the storage and release of transmitter.

1. During aerobic incubation in 5 mM glucose medium, 10(-5) M-DNP reduced the action potential duration and amplitude and the developed tension of guinea-pig ventricular muscle more rapidly and to a greater extent than anoxia.2. The DNP effect on electrical and mechanical activity was even more pronounced following prolonged anoxic incubation. Since the action potential duration and developed tension of anoxic ventricular muscle have previously been shown to be dependent on glycolytic ATP, and since the effects of DNP could not be duplicated with NaCN, it was concluded that DNP was exerting an effect in addition to its uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation.3. Anoxic muscle was incubated with 10(-4) M-IAA or with 10(-4) M-IAA + 10(-4) M-DNP. The ATP content of IAA-treated muscle was significantly lower than control but in the presence of both IAA and DNP there was a further reduction in ATP and an increased lactate production.4. Sodium azide (10(-2) M), a potent inhibitor of mitochondrial ATPase, did not prevent the reduction of ATP in DNP-treated anoxic muscle.5. Ouabain (10(-7) M) partially prevented the rapid decline of action potential duration and developed tension of DNP-treated anoxic muscle. In addition, the glycoside partially blocked the DNP-induced break-down of ATP and stimulation of lactate production.6. Oligomycin (10 mug/ml.) partially prevented the reduction in action potential duration and developed tension of DNP-treated anoxic muscle.7. It was concluded that DNP induces an ;energy leak' by actively promoting the hydrolysis of an high energy glycolytic intermediate at least one step beyond the sites of ATPase inhibition by ouabain and oligomycin.

Respiratory control ratios between 2.0 and 9.0 were obtained by comparison of the respiratory rates of cabbage mitochondria in the presence and in the absence of individual components of the system used to provide ADP and by comparing the rates before and after exhaustion of added ADP. These results indicate that respiration in cabbage mitochondria is controlled by the availability of ADP, which serves as the phosphate acceptor. Pentachlorophenol (PCP), 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP), gramicidin and oleic acid inhibited phosphorylation to a greater extent than respiration in the cabbage mitochondria, but these reagents did not stimulate respiration in the absence of a phosphate acceptor. Respiration was stimulated by DNP only in the presence of added ATP.2,4-Dinitrophenol, pentachlorophenol, dicumarol and gramicidin did not stimulate ATPase activity either in the presence or absence of added Mg(2+). Oleic acid stimulated ATPase activity in the presence of added Mg(2+), but did not stimulate respiration even in the presence of added ATP. The ATP-(32)Pi exchange rate was increased many fold in the presence of added Mg(2+). Oleic acid and 2,4-dinitrophenol inhibited the exchange almost completely.

Impairment of mitochondrial respiration in acute myocardial ischemia was studied in the inner and outer layers of canine heart muscle by the determination of oxidative phosphorylation and several respiratory enzymatic activities of isolated mitochondria. As early as 15 min after coronary ligation, the respiratory control ratio decreased as the result of a reduction in the oxygen consumption rate in state 3 to 72% of the control ratio in the inner layer. However, in the outer layer, it dropped to 74% after 1 to 2 hours. The oxygen consumption rate in state 4 and the ADP/O ratio were not significantly altered in both cardiac sublayers. In parallel with a decrease in oxygen consumption rate in state 3, Mg++-dependent ATPase and DNP-stimulated ATPase activities of isolated mitochondria reduced significantly in both sublayers, followed by a sequential increase in Mg++-dependent ATPase activity. Succinate dehydrogenase activity increased in ischemia for 3 hours in the inner layer, and for 6 hours in the outer layer, respectively; cytochrome oxidase activity reduced in both sublayers during the same period. Mitochondrial respiration is impaired in acute myocardial ischemia much earlier in the inner layer by a decrease in oxygen consumption rate in state 3, and there is a chronological delay in the development of ischemic mitochondrial changes in the outer myocardium.

1. DDT is a weak inhibitor of the ATPase of housefly muscle mitochondria in the absence of Mg2+ but an activator in the presence of Mg2+. 2. By contrast, DDT and several p,p'-substituted alpha-trichlomethylbenzylanilines were strong inhibitors of the ATPase activity in the presence of the uncoupler, dinitrophenol. 3. Maximum inhibition of the DNP-ATPase was achieved when the ATPase complex was dissociated from its endogenous protein inhibitor. 4. The inhibition by DDT was noncompetitive, maximum at acid pH and independent of temperature. The inhibition was counteracted by exogenous phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine. 5. The ATPase was also activated by NH+4 in the presence of valinomycin. This activation was reversed by K+ and strongly inhibited by DDT. 6. The possible mechanisms involved in the inhibition by DDT are discussed.
