The progress of research in the Central Nervous System (CNS) had led to the consideration of neurons and glia as indissociable functional complexes. Neuron-glia interactions are essential for the maturation of the CNS. Glial cells release trophic factors for neurons (NGF) and neurons release trophic factors for glia (GGF). Furthermore, the latter provide a substrate for the migration of neurons and guidance of axons by mean of adhesion molecules. In adults, the interactions between neurons and glial cells serve to maintain homeostasis. Thus, the glial cells perform the restoration of the metabolic equilibrium overthrown by the transmission of the nerve impulse and provide the glucose required for neuronal activity. The nerve impulse provokes increases in the cellular space of CO2, K+, NH3 and neurotransmitters which must be taken up to allow neuronal activity to continue (in normal conditions). Astrocytes perform the uptake of the extracellular K+ by means of passive ionic channels, ionic voltage-dependent channels and a sodium-potassium-ATPase-dependent pump. The oligodendrocytes are involved in the metabolism of CO2 by converting CO2 into carbonic acid by means of carbonic anhydrase. Oligodendrocytes and astrocytes play a role in terminating neural transmission by the uptake of the amino acid neurotransmitters, such as GABA, glutamate and aspartate. The catabolism of glutamate to glutamine by means of glutamine synthetase allows both the conversion of an excitatory amino acid into a neutral amino acid (which can diffuse in the extracellular space without causing neural transmission) and the reduction of cerebral NH3 content.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

This paper deals with the toxicity of mercuric chloride to different ATPases in the intestine of mudskipper (Boleophthalmus dentatus). Mudskippers were exposed to four sublethal concentrations of mercuric chloride for three durations. The specific activities of Na+, K(+)-ATPase, Ca(2+)-ATPase, Mg(2+)-ATPase, Ca2+, HCO3(-)-ATPase, and Mg2+, HCO3(-)-ATPase were estimated. There was linear inhibition of all the enzymes with increasing mercuric chloride concentration as well as exposure duration. The Na+,K(+)-ATPase was found to be the enzyme most affected, followed by other ion-dependent ATPases. Inhibition of all the enzymes indicates severe damage to the intestinal cells, resulting in a blockage of the transport of substances across the membrane.

We microperfused the loop of Henle (LOH) to assess its contribution to urine acidification in vivo. Under control conditions (Na HCO3- = 13 mM, perfusion rate approximately 17 nl/min-1) net bicarbonate transport (JHCO3-) was unsaturated, flow- and concentration-dependent, and increased linearly until a bicarbonate load of 1,400 pmol.min-1 was reached. Methazolamide (2 x 10(-4) M) reduced JHCO3 by 70%; the amiloride analogue ethylisopropylamiloride (EIPA) (2 x 10(-4) M) reduced JHCO3 by 40%; neither methazolamide nor EIPA affected net water flux (Jv). The H(+)-ATPase inhibitor bafilomycin A1 (10(-5) M) reduced JHCO3 by 20%; the Cl- channel inhibitor 5-nitro-2'-(3-phenylpropylamino)-benzoate (2 x 10(-4) M) and the Cl(-)-base exchange inhibitor diisothiocyanato-2,2'-stilbenedisulfonate (5 x 10(-5) M), had no effect on fractional bicarbonate reabsorption. Bumetanide (10(-6) M) stimulated bicarbonate transport (net and fractional JHCO3-) by 20%, whereas furosemide (10(-4) M) had no effect on bicarbonate reabsorption; both diuretics reduced Jv. In summary: (a) the LOH contributes significantly to urine acidification. It normally reabsorbs an amount equivalent to 15% of filtered bicarbonate; (b) bicarbonate reabsorption is not saturated; (c) Na(+)-H+ exchange and an ATP-dependent proton pump are largely responsible for the bulk of LOH bicarbonate transport.

Effects of the s.c. administration of various doses of estradiol propionate (E.P.; 25-500 micrograms/kg) on the activities of carbonic anhydrase (CA), Mg(2+)-dependent ATPase and Mg(2+)-dependent, HCO3(-)-stimulated ATPase (Mg(2+)-HCO3(-)-ATPase) in rat duodenal mucosa and kidney cortex, and on body weight, organ weight and serum concentrations of testosterone and estradiol-17 beta, were examined in adult male, female, testectomized and ovariectomized rats. In normal male rats, activities of cytosol CA and brush border Mg(2+)-HCO3(-)-ATPase in the kidney were increased in a dose-dependent manner and reached 1.6- and 2-fold of controls, respectively, after consecutive administration (daily for 7 days) of 500 micrograms E.P. with no changes in either enzyme activities in duodenal mucosa. The positive correlations (P less than 0.01) were observed by linear regression analysis between serum concentration of estradiol-17 beta and kidney cytosol CA or kidney brush border Mg(2+)-HCO3(-)-ATPase activities. In normal female rats, activities of cytosol CA and brush border Mg(2+)-HCO3(-)-ATPase in the duodenal mucosa, and brush border Mg(2+)-HCO3(-)-ATPase activity in the kidney were increased by E.P. administration (100 and 500 micrograms/kg, daily for 7 days), however, kidney cytosol CA activity did not change by any dosage. Behavior of a part of both enzymes to E.P. in testectomized rats was altered almost in the same way to that observed in normal female rats and vice versa in ovariectomized rats. Body weight was decreased, in general, by consecutive administration of E.P. in a dose-dependent manner, and kidney weight was increased by E.P. in both male and female rats.

The cytosol carbonic anhydrase (CA) and microvillus membrane Mg(2+)-dependent, HCO3-(-)stimulated ATPase (Mg(2+)-HCO3-(-)ATPase) activities implicated in ion transport were determined in duodenal mucosa and renal tubule of ovariectomized and estradiol (E2)-treated ovariectomized rats. CA and Mg(2+)-HCO3-(-)ATPase activities in duodenum remained unchanged after ovariectomy, and sc E2 200 micrograms.d-1 x 7d decreased the activity of CA. Both the enzymes in kidney exhibited a similar sensitivity to ovariectomy, and the lowered activity of Mg(2+)-HCO3-(-)ATPase following ovariectomy was restored to near normal after administration of E2. These results suggest that E2 may be a factor in regulation of the above enzymes from the duodenum and kidney of rats, the regulation of E2 on these 2 enzymes in rat duodenum is greatly different from that in rat kidney.

The purified Ca2+/Mg2+ ATPase from rat heart plasma membrane was activated by Ca2+ and Mg2+ with Ka values of 1.47 mM and 2.51 mM, respectively; other divalent cations also activated the enzyme but to a lesser extent. Divalent cations like Cu2+, Zn2+, Ni2+, Cd2+ were potent inhibitors of the enzyme activity in the presence of Ca2+ or Mg2+ whereas Na+, K+ or HCO3- did not affect the Ca2+/Mg2+ ATPase activity; the pH optima was 8.5. The enzyme hydrolyzed ATP with a Km of 0.34 mM for Ca2+ ATPase and 0.48 mM for Mg2+ ATPase; various nucleoside triphosphate such as ITP, CTP, GTP, and UTP were also hydrolyzed. Phospholipase A and C as well as neuraminidase decreased the Ca2+/Mg2+ ATPase activity whereas phospholipase D was ineffective. The purified Ca2+/Mg2+ ATPase was found to bind ATP-r-35S with two affinities; the KD values were 50.9 +/- 0.8 and 1160 +/- 198 nM and the Bmax values were 8.71 +/- 0.16 and 145 +/- 9.7 nmol/mg protein for high and low affinity sites, respectively. Treatment of the enzyme preparation with phospholipases and neuraminidase did not affect the ATP-r-35S binding. Ca2+ was also found to bind with Ca2+/Mg2+ ATPase with a KD of 0.384 mM and a Bmax of 1.85 mumol/mg protein; Ni2+, Mn2+, Zn2+ at 1 mM concentrations inhibited the Ca2+ binding but Mg2+ and verapamil were without effect. Phospholipase A and neuraminidase decreased the Ca2+ binding by 20-30%; this indicated that Ca2+ binding with the purified enzyme may be partly due to the phospholipids and sialic acid residues associated with the enzyme. These results show that the purified Ca2+/Mg2+ ATPase is a Ca2+ binding glycoprotein having two binding sites for ATP. Furthermore, this study suggests that phospholipids associated with purified Ca2+/Mg2+ ATPase are required for maximal activity.

Mouse embryos at the two-cell stage, like other cells, can recover from an intracellular acid-load. Our previous work has shown, surprisingly, that there is no contribution to this recovery by Na+/H+ antiport activity. Here we show that the recovery similarly is not affected by inhibition of other known intracellular pH (pHi) regulatory mechanisms. Specifically, the recovery is unaffected by lack of external Na+, inhibition of anion exchange, or lack of bicarbonate, which eliminates the Na(+)-dependent HCO3-/Cl- exchanger as a possible mechanisms. These conditions also eliminate any possible Na+,HCO3- cotransporter operating to relieve acid-loading. Recovery is unaffected similarly by nonspecific inhibitors of H(+)-ATPase activity. These observations lead to the conclusion that recovery from acid-load is a passive process in the two-cell mouse embryo. Similarly, the mean base-line pHi (6.84) is not dependent on known pHi regulatory mechanisms. The embryos exhibit a marked intracellular alkalinization when exposed to Cl(-)-free medium in the presence of bicarbonate. This response is eliminated by an inhibitor of anion exchange and by lack of bicarbonate, but is independent of Na+. These results indicate that there is probably a Na(+)-independent HCO3-/Cl- exchanger active in these cells, presumably functioning to alleviate alkaline loads.

Two major types of intercalated cells (IC) have been previously defined in rabbit collecting duct: alpha-cells have a basolateral band 3-like anion exchanger and secrete H+, whereas beta-cells bind peanut agglutinin (PNA) apically and are believed to secrete HCO3-. To further define IC types, we double-labeled kidney sections with anti-H(+) -ATPase antibodies and with either an anti-band 3 antibody or PNA. We found four patterns of staining: 1) IC with apical H(+)-ATPase and basal band 3, a configuration consistent with ongoing H+ secretion, which prevailed in the inner stripe of outer medulla (OMCDi); 2) diffuse H(+)-ATPase labeling across the cell and basal band 3, which was most numerous in the outer stripe of outer medulla (OMCDo); 3) IC with "bright" apical peanut lectin, diffuse H(+)-ATPase, and no band 3, which was abundant in the cortical collecting duct (CCD) and probably represents HCO3(-)-secreting cells; and 4) "hybrid" cells with various staining combinations (e.g., apical lectin binding and apical H(+)-ATPase), which although they are uncommon, were seen in the CCD. Consistent with this immunocytochemical finding of hybrid cells, cell-sorting studies on isolated CCD IC showed that 6-18% of PNA-positive cells also stained positively for band 3. We conclude that 1) band 3-positive IC in the OMCD vary axially. Most OMCDi IC are probably active proton secretors, whereas up to one-half of OMCDo IC may be latent H+ secretors. 2) The diffuse H(+)-ATPase pattern in putative beta-cells differs from comparable results in the rat and is not consistent with a "reversed" alpha-cell. HCO3- secretion by beta-cells may be driven by an H+ extrusion mechanism other than the alpha-cell pump re-sorted to the basolateral membrane. 3) The possibility of hybrid cells that might combine alpha- and beta-cell transport proteins suggests a mechanism for functional reversal of collecting duct IC polarity.

Upon treatment with sodium carbonate, rat brain synaptic vesicles lost ATP-dependent H+ transport and released major polypeptide components (about 72, 57, 41, 34 and 33 kDa). These polypeptides, consisting about 15% of the total protein, were identified as subunits of H(+)-ATPase by immunoblotting with antibodies against H(+)-ATPase from chromaffin granules. The same treatment also abolished the ATP-dependent, bafilomycin-sensitive uptakes of glutamate, serotonin and gamma-aminobutyrate by the synaptic vesicles. These results indicated that H(+)-ATPase is a major constituent of the vesicles (consisting about 20% of their total protein) and is a primary pump for accumulation of neurotransmitters.

Rabbit corneal epithelial cells, loaded with the pH-sensitive fluorescent dye 2',7'-bis(2-carboxy-ethyl)-5(6)-carboxyfluorescein, show a profound acidification (pH 7.33 to 6.75) in HCO3(-)-free Ringer solution when exposed to the Na(+)-H+ exchange inhibitor amiloride. This indicates that the cells are under a constant acid load that is being countered by Na(+)-H+ exchange. Amiloride-induced acidification was affected neither by incubation in Cl(-)-free Ringer solution nor by hypoxia, indicating that the potential acid loaders, Cl(-)-HCO3- (or OH-) exchange or glycolytic metabolism, are not contributing to the acidification. The possibility of a H+ influx dependent on the outward K+ gradient was tested. Perfusion with a high-K+ Ringer solution (77 mM) caused Na(+)- and Cl(-)-independent alkalinizations. Membrane depolarization by gramicidin, Ba2+, Cl(-)-free Ringer solution, or ouabain all produced small (less than 0.1 pH units) acidifications, inconsistent with contribution by a membrane potential driven passive H+ influx. In Na(+)-free Ringer solution, intracellular pH (pHi) of 6.4-6.6, addition of nigericin (a 1K(+)-1H+ ionophore) produced no significant change in pHi, indicating that [K+]i/[K+]o = [H+]i/[H+]o. Both amiloride-induced acidifications and high-K(+)-induced alkalinizations were significantly stimulated by the presence of 1 mM ZnSO4 and unaffected by H2-DIDS (0.5 mM, an anion transport blocker) or 100 microM SCH28080 (K(+)-H(+)-ATPase blocker). In the absence of a demonstrable H+ conductance, it is concluded that amiloride-induced acidification and K(+)-induced pHi changes are via a carrier-mediated K(+)-H+ exchanger. In addition to pHi regulation, K(+)-H+ exchange may play a role in cell volume control.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
