In order to determine if there is a relationship between Na+, K+-ATPase inhibition and cardiac glycoside-induced arrhythmia, the time course of the onset and offset of the arrhythmia induced by the semi-synthetic glycoside, actodigin, and the enzyme activity during arrhythmia and following reversion to normal sinus rhythm was studied in the intact, anethetized dog. An infusion of actodigin(AY22,241) at the rate of 0.1 micronmol/kg/min for 30 min induced a severe and persistent arrhythmia within 13.1 +/- 192 min of 9 dogs. Upon termination of the actodigin infusion, the arrhythmia spontaneously converted to sinus rhythm within 17.5 +/- 2.3 min. Left ventricular tissue was taken from dogs sacrificed at the peak of the actodigin-induced arrhythmic periods or from the dogs that were allowed to recover from the actodigin-induced arrhythmia. These samples were homogenized and the membrane-containing fraction was passed through a Millipore filter. The membrane fraction trapped in the filter was then assayed for Na+ + K+ stimulated, Mg2+ dependent ATPase acctivity. The results showed that, in comparison to the time matched control dogs, the cardiac microsomes prepared from the arrhythmic dogs had a markedly reduced Na+, K+-ATPase activity. On the other hand, actodigin-treated dogs that were allowed to recover from the arrhythmic episode had Na+, K+-ATPase activity that was not significantly different from the control values. The amount of 3H-actodigin bound by the cardiac muscle microsomal fraction was also investigated. The microsomes from left ventricle were isolated with a slight modification of the method of Dutta et al. (1968). The microsomal binding of 3H-actodigin was maximum at 30 min (26.6 mol/mg protein) when the sample was prepared from the dogs at the peak of the arrhythmic effect. However, the binding was significantly reduced (11.5pmol/mg protein) in the microsomal fraction from hearts that had returned to sinus rhythm. These data provide direct evidence that inhibition of Na+, K+-ATPase and cardiac glycosideinduced arrhythmia may have some cause and effect relationship.

In Goldblatt rats (GV) 4-24 weeks after coarctation of one renal artery the following characteristics were registered as compared to controls (CV) of the same age: Arterial blood pressure increased to 190-200 mmHg in comparison to 105-110 mmHg in controls. This pressure overload induced an increase in ventricular weights (34%-54%). Noteworthy differences in myocardial water, total protein, and nonprotein substance contents were found. Hydroxyproline concentration in GV did not increase significantly until 24 weeks after onset of pressure overload. No significant alterations were detected in the relationship of myocardial, sarcoplasmic, and stromal protein fractions. However, greater changes could be registered in the concentration of the myofibrillar protein fraction and its single components. Furthermore, a correlative depression in specific actomyosin ATPase activity and in maximum shortening velocity of the unloaded cardiac muscle (2,3) was observed.

Liposomes containing either purified or microsomal (Na+,K+)-ATPase preparations from lamb kidney medulla catalyzed ATP-dependent transport of Na+ and K+ with a ratio of approximately 3Na+ to 2K+, which was inhibited by ouabain. Similar results were obtained with liposomes containing a partially purified (Na+,K+)-ATPase from cardiac muscle. This contrasts with an earlier report by Goldin and Tong (J. Biol. Chem. 249, 5907-5915, 1974), in which liposomes containing purified dog kidney (Na+,K+)-ATPase did not transport K+ but catalyzed ATP-dependent symport of Na+ and Cl-. When purified by our procedure, dog kidney (Na+,K+)-ATPase showed some ability to transport K+ but the ratio of Na+ : K+ was 5 : 1.

The effect of acetaldehyde, the hepatic metabolite of alcohol, on the functioning of cardiac muscle was investigated at the subcellular level. Concentrations of acetaldehyde that occur in plasma failed to alter either the microsomal Ca2+-accumulating and ATPase activity or the Ca2+-accumulating activity of the mitochondria. These same concentrations of acetaldehyde inhibited the Ca2+-dependent myofibrillar ATPase.

Cardiac muscle myosin ATPase activity is depressed and contractile function impaired when the heart is subjected to a chronic pressure overload. Administering digitalis in the presence of chronic pressure overload significantly attenuates the decline in mechanical function. The current study sought to determine if the cardiac muscle myosin ATPase activity of cats treated with digitalis in the presence of pressure overload remains normal in parallel with the mechanical function. Four groups of cats were studied: normal controls (C), animals with pressure-overload hypertrophy with or without failure (HF), normal cats that received treatment with digitalis (D), and animals that received digitalis prior to and together with pressure overload (DHF). Compared to C, the maximum myosin ATPase activity of HF was significantly (P less than 0.05) depressed, but the maximum ATPase activity of D and DHF was not altered significantly (P greater than 0.05) from C. In parallel with the enzyme maximum activity, the papillary muscle isometric rate of force development was significantly (P less than 0.005) depressed in HF compared to C; D and DHF were not significantly (P greater than 0.05) different from C. It is concluded that the depression of myosin ATPase observed in HF is not present when digitalis is administered concomitant with the pressure overload.

Papillary muscle mechanics and ventricular myosin calcium-activated ATPase activity were measured in the same heart as a function of temperature (8--28 degrees) in rabbits and marmots, in order to examine further the hypothesis that the velocity of cardiac muscle shortening at zero load (Vmax) is correlated with myosin ATPase activity. There was a similar Q10 for Vmax in each muscle type, as measured with isotonic afterloaded quick-releases at 30--33% time-to-peak tension; the calcium activated ATPase of myosin in the two muscle types also was similar. The least squares linear regression of rabbit Vmax on calcium-activated myosin ATPase activity was the same as in the marmot, so all the data were pooled to yield a linear regression (Y = 0.47 +/- 3.82X) with a high correlation between the two variables [r = 0.95, P less than 0.01 (ANOV)]. Furthermore, the correlation proved to be predictive of cardiac Vmax and myosin ATPase activity levels in other experiments where these two measurements decreased below normal as a result of hypertrophic growth. Consequently, the quantitative relationship between Vmax and myosin ATPase defined here may prove to be predictive of the ability of cardiac muscle to release bond energy.

Myosins purified from cardiac (porcine heart) and smooth (chicken gizzard) muscles were modified with 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonate (TNBS) and the effects on the kinetic properties of myosin ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] were studied. The following results were obtained. 1. About 0.5 mol of TNBS per mol of myosin head was incorporated rapidly, irrespective of the presence of PP1 (2mM), into both types of myosin studied. 2. The size of the initial burst of P1 liberation for both myosins was found to be 0.5--0.6 mol/mol head. 3. The rapid incorporation of TNBS into cardiac muscle myosin was accompanied by a rapid decrease in the size of the initial P1 burst, and it was completely lost after modification for 20 min. However, smooth muscle myosin retained its P1 burst. 4. The EDTA (K+)-ATPase activity of both myosins modified in the presence or absence of PP1 decreased sharply with incorporation of TNBS. 5. Superprecipitation and ATPase activity of reconstituted actomyosin from cardiac myosin and skeletal F-actin decreased only after 10 min of modification with TNBS in the absence of PP1. 6. The spectra of TNP bound to myosins from cardiac and smooth muscles were unchanged by the addition of PP1. The above findings are compared with those previously obtained for skeletal muscle myosin [Miyanishi, T., Inoue, A., & Tonomura, Y. (1979) J. Biochem. 85, 747--753], and the structural and functional differences among the myosins derived from skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscles are discussed.

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.

The application of zonal centrifugation to the analysis of homogenates of cardiac and skeletal muscle permits selection of fractions that are enriched in markers for lysosomes, sarcolemma, sarcoplasmic reticulum, and mitochondria. The method of disruption of normal and pathological tissue alters significantly the distribution of total protein and peaks of enzymatic activity on the gradient. Total activities of cathepsin, N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase, beta-glucuronidase, and para-nitrophenylphosphatase are distributed at different concentrations of sucrose on the gradient. Beta-Glucuronidase appears to "mark" the sarcoplasmic reticulum, as well as lysosomes, of skeletal muscle, para-Nitrophenylphosphatase, a common marker of acid phosphatase of lysosomes, is enriched in those fractions of cardiac muscle containing the highest specific activity of ouabain-inhibited Na-K-ATPase. Thus, these two enzymes appear to have a localization in at least two separate organelles. On the other hand, these results may indicate the isolation of several "populations" of lysosomes that are associated constantly with distribution peaks of other organelles. In any event, attempts to correlate changes in structure of organelles of normal and pathological specimens of tissue with functional impairment, e.g., Ca2+ uptake, activity of Na-K-ATPase, etc., must include consideration of dual localization of enzymatic markers or cross contamination by populations of other organelles.

Crude homogenates of rat cardiac muscle were fractionated in order to examine the subcellular location of adenylate cyclase in this tissue. The fractionation procedure employed differential centrifugation of homogenized material followed by collagenase treatment, centrifugation on a discontinuous sucrose density gradient and extraction with 1 M KCl. The particulate fraction obtained by this procedure contained a high specific activity and yield of adenylate cyclase, moderate levels of mitochondria and low levels of sarcoplasmic reticulum and contractile protein as judged by marker enzyme activities. Adenylate cyclase was purified 20-fold with a 33% yield from the crude homogenate, while mitochondrial, sarcoplasmic reticulum and contractile protein yields were 5, 0.4 and 0.7% respectively. The membrane fractions prepared in this manner were examined by sodium dodecyl sulfate - gel electro phoresis. Adenylate cyclase copurfied with ouabain-sensitive (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, a plasma membrane marker enzyme, and not with Ca2+ -accumulating activity, which is associated with the sarcoplasmic reticulum. The distribution of marker enzyme activities indicates that heart adenylate cyclase is not located in the sarcoplasmic reticulum but is localized predominantly, if not exclusively, in the plasma membrane.
