Adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity which could be stimulated maximally by either Ca2+ or Mg2+ was identified in a synaptosomal fraction from rat brain caudate nucleus. The thermodynamic properties of the Ca2+ and Mg2+ stimulated enzymes were similar to each other. Oligomycin, sodium azide and dinitrophenol had no significant inhibitory effects on stimulation by either cation. In vitro incubation of the ATPase with cis- or trans-flupenthixol, chlorpromazine or trifluoperazine, but not with haloperidol, significantly inhibited stimulation by either cation. The DA receptor agonist 2-amino-6,7-dihydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene (ADTN) inhibited stimulation of the enzyme by either cation, while d-amphetamine, SKF 38393, pergolide and LY-171555 had no significant effects. Nomifensine at 10(-3) M inhibited the cation stimulation by about 33%. In vivo administration of dopamine (DA) receptor antagonists (haloperidol, cis- and trans-flupenthixol, spiperone, chlorpromazine and trifluoperazine) and the agonist apomorphine neither inhibited nor stimulated ATPase activity. It appears from these data that the ATPase activity is not under DA receptor modulation. In addition, our tentative conclusion is that one enzyme is involved, because both Ca2+ and Mg2+ produced similar maximal stimulations, the activities as a function of temperature were similar, the enzyme could not be further stimulated with Ca2+ after maximal stimulation by Mg2+ (and vice versa), and the behaviour of the ATPase activity to all drugs tested was similar.

Changes in the sensitivity of hepatocytes to initiation during the cell cycle were investigated in partially resected hydroxyurea-synchronized regenerating rat liver. At defined periods of the cell cycle the animals were given injections of a single dose of N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) (25 mg/kg) and were subsequently exposed to diethylnitrosamine for 30 days (2 mg/kg/day) or to phenobarbital (0.05% in the diet) for 80 days. Adenosine triphosphatase-deficient cell populations in the liver, determined 90 days after MNU treatment, served as a marker for the initiating action of the carcinogen. Few foci were observed when MNU treatment was performed during early G1. Their frequency increased steeply after MNU injection at G1-S boundary and reached a maximum after carcinogen exposure in early S phase, when the number of adenosine triphosphatase-deficient foci was higher by a factor of 5 (after diethylnitrosamine feeding) or 10 (after phenobarbital feeding) than after MNU exposure in early G1 phase. A rapid decline was observed in middle S phase. The frequency of altered foci after MNU in late S phase and during G2-M was in the same range as in early G1. Their size distribution was similar in all groups. The results confirm and extend earlier observations of an increased initiating effect of a carcinogen during liver regeneration. Under in vivo conditions, hepatocytes are, after HU synchronization, at the highest risk of being initiated by a carcinogen when they traverse the early S phase of the cell cycle.

Adenosine triphosphatase activity stimulated by Mg2+ was greater in muscle mitochondria of fish infected with larval Anisakis simplex nematodes than in uninfected fish. When muscle mitochondria were isolated in a sucrose ethylene-glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)N,N'-tetraacetic acid medium from fresh uninfected fish, they were loosely coupled, and their adenosine triphosphatase activity was comparable to that of mitochondria from rat tissue. Activity in infected fish was dose dependent, increasing with the number of worms per fish. Excretory secretory products or a cytoplasmic fraction of anisakines, when incubated with coupled rat mitochondria, also caused adenosine triphosphatase activity to increase. Storage of fish flesh caused an increase in adenosine triphosphatase activity, but such aging was not significant until 5 and 10 days after death in refrigerated and frozen samples, respectively. The Mg2+ stimulated adenosine triphosphatase activity of muscle mitochondria can be used to estimate the number of nematodes per market fish. The type of medium used to isolate the mitochondria is crucial in such studies; an ionic medium with Nagarse proteinase was optimal for fish muscle mitochondria.

Adenosine triphosphopyridoxal (AP3PL) was used as an affinity label directed toward the ATP binding site of the Ca2+-transporting ATPase of the rabbit skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). The reagent inhibited the ATPase activity competitively with ATP, Ki = 20 microM. Incubation of SR membranes with 100 microM AP3PL followed by treatment with NaBH4 resulted in 90% inactivation of the E-P forming activity as well as of the Ca2+-transporting activity. Adenosine di- and tetraphosphopyridoxals had similar but less pronounced effects on the Ca2+-transport system. AP3PL was bound to ATPase in a one-to-one stoichiometry in parallel with the loss of the enzymatic activities. ATP and ADP prevented the binding of AP3PL and thereby protected the enzyme from inactivation. The SR membranes were labeled with [3H]AP3PL and then digested with thermolysin in order to identify the attachment site of the affinity label. A 3H-labeled peptide (Val-Glu-Pro-Ser-His-Lys* 684-Ser-Lys) was purified to homogeneity by Sephadex LH-20 chromatography and C18-reversed phase HPLC (Lys* denotes the binding site of [3H]AP3PL). These results indicate that the SR-ATPase peptide is folded in such a manner that Lys684 and Asp351, the phosphorylation site, are located very close to each other, since the distance between the 4-formyl group reacting with Lys684 and the gamma-phosphoryl group of the ATP moiety of AP3PL is rather small.

Adenosine effects on the transmembrane potential characteristics and the sarcolemmal Na+-K+ ATPase activity of human atrial myocardium were studied in tissue from 20 patients who were divided into 2 groups based on the maximum diastolic potentials (MDP) greater than or less than -60 mV. Group A consisted of 10 patients with MDP of 70.84 +/- 4.20 mV and Na+-K+ ATPase activity of 15.37 +/- 0.46 mumole Pi/mg/hr. Ten patients with MDP of 44.54 +/- 6.24 mV and Na+-K+ ATPase activity of 12.55 +/- 0.42 mumole Pi/mg/hr were included in group B. Adenosine had no effects on the electrophysiological properties and the sarcolemmal Na+-K+ ATPase activity of atrial myocardium at concentrations below 1 X 10(-5) M in either group. Adenosine resulted in mildly altered atrial transmembranes potentials without significant effect on Na+-K+ ATPase activity at concentrations between 1 X 10(-5) M and 5 X 10(-4) M. However, a significant reduction of transmembrane potentials and an apparent inhibition of Na+-K+ ATPase activity were observed only in tissue from group B. These results suggest that: 1) adenosine has no effect on the electrophysiological properties and the sarcolemmal Na+-K+ ATPase activity of human atrial myocardium at physiological concentrations; 2) adenosine induced inhibition of the sarcolemmal Na+-K+ ATPase activity in slow channel-dependent atrial tissues may be a mechanism responsible for the alterations of transmembrane potentials under unphysiological conditions; and 3) adenosine contributes to the genesis of cardiac arrhythmias during acute myocardial ischemia, which can reduce transmembrane potentials of the myocardial cells and may increase the myocardial adenosine level above its effective concentration.

There are at least four forms of DNA-dependent ATPase in mouse FM3A cells [Tawaragi, Y., Enomoto, T., Watanabe, Y., Hanaoka, F., & Yamada, M. (1984) Biochemistry 23, 529-533]. One of these, ATPase B, has been purified and characterized in detail. During the purification of the enzyme, we encountered the difficulties that the enzyme could not be recovered well from the single-stranded DNA-cellulose column and that the enzyme activity was distributed very broadly. The problems were resolved by the addition of ATP in the elution buffer. The ATPase has a sedimentation coefficient of 5.5 S in both high salt and low salt. The enzyme hydrolyzes rNTPs and dATP, but ATP and dATP are preferred substrates. Adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (ATP-gamma-S), 5'-adenylyl methylenediphosphate (AMP-PCP), and 5'-adenylyl imidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP) inhibit the enzyme activity. The enzyme is insensitive to ouabain, oligomycin, novobiocin, and ethidium bromide. A divalent cation (Mg2+ congruent to Mn2+ greater than Ca2+) as well as a nucleic acid cofactor is required for activity. Poly(dT), single-stranded circular DNA, and heat-denatured DNA were very effective. Native DNA was little effective with an efficiency of 29% of that obtained with heat-denatured DNA. In addition, the enzyme showed almost no activity with poly(dA).poly(dT) although it showed very high activity with the noncomplementary combination of poly(dT) and poly(dC), suggesting that ATPase B requires single-stranded DNA for activity. ATP altered the affinity of ATPase B for single-stranded DNA. The interaction of the enzyme with DNA was studied by Sephadex G-200 gel filtration assay.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The role of the endothelium was examined in the response to aggregating platelets in cerebral arteries from normal and hypercholesterolemic animals. Male Yorkshire pigs were fed either a normal diet or a 2% high-cholesterol diet for 10 weeks. Endothelium-dependent responses were examined in vitro. In rings of basilar arteries from control animals aggregating platelets caused endothelium-dependent relaxations, which were significantly inhibited by apyrase, an adenosine diphosphatase and triphosphatase, but were augmented by methiothepin, a combined S1- and S2-serotonergic blocker. In quiescent rings platelets induced contractions that were inhibited by the presence of the endothelium; these contractions were significantly inhibited by methiothepin, but not by ketanserin (an S2-serotonergic blocker) or dazoxiben (a thromboxane-synthetase blocker) in the presence or absence of SQ29548 (a thromboxane-receptor blocker). Adenosine diphosphate but not serotonin caused endothelium-dependent relaxations. In cholesterol-fed animals the endothelium-dependent relaxations in response to aggregating platelets and adenosine diphosphate were impaired. These experiments indicate that 1) the endothelium inhibits the vasoconstrictor effect of aggregating platelets in porcine cerebral arteries; 2) platelet-induced relaxations are achieved mainly by a purinergic mechanism, while platelet-induced contractions are mediated by activation of S1-serotonergic receptors with little contribution of thromboxanes; and 3) hypercholesterolemia impairs the endothelium-dependent relaxations in response to aggregating platelets due to the impaired responses to adenosine diphosphate.

The effects of six weeks treatment with multiple i.p. doses of citrinin (15, 25 and 35 mg/kg) on some hormonal activities and on enzymes and substrates of the Embden--Meyerhof pathway in mice were studied. Adenosine triphosphatase, hexokinase, lactate dehydrogenase, lactic acid and pyruvic acid decreased in blood, liver, kidney and brain of citrinin-treated mice. Glucose levels in blood, kidney and brain increased and glycogen content of liver decreased. Cortisol, triiodothyronine and thyroxine levels of serum increased, but insulin levels decreased.

After cyclophosphamide priming, subcutaneously (s.c.) transplanted cells from established human leukemia cell lines U937, K562, or HL-60 consistently yielded single, nonmetastatic tumors. Tumorigenesis with KG-1 cells was inconstant. Within each cell line, cytologic, electron-microscopic, cytogenetic, isoenzyme, immunochemical, and enzyme cytochemical studies confirmed identity of cultured and tumor cells. Adenosine triphosphatase reactivity was limited to leukemic cells in vivo. Isoenzyme electrophoretic patterns, distinct for each cell line, provided a reliable criterion to establish clonality and to verify tumor cell origin. Antitumor activity of the active vitamin-D3 metabolite 1,25-(OH)2D3 was assessed in vivo against U937, K562, and HL-60 cells by cell transplantation and concurrent s.c. contralateral implantation of miniosmotic pumps containing the 1,25-(OH)2D3 in a propylene glycol vehicle. Tumors developed in all treated U937 mice, 50% with K562 and 25% bearing HL-60 transplants. All transplants proliferated in mice either with pumps containing only vehicle or no pumps. Coincidence of tumor and vehicle decreased survival time. No differences in cytoreactivities or morphology were apparent between cultured cells and tumor cells in treated or untreated mice. This nude mouse system is useful for in vivo studies of human myelogenous leukemia cells. Implanted miniosmotic pumps provide controlled delivery of antineoplastic agents and their vehicles for in vivo studies. 1,25-(OH)2D3 may be a valuable adjunctive therapeutic for control of human myelogenous leukemias.

Adenosine triphosphatase activated by divalent cations is apparently a component of the motile apparatus in flagella of Arbacia sperm, as judged by the activity of this enzyme in intact flagella, glycerol-extracted flagella, and soluble extracts prepared from flagella. However, the variation in the physical properties and in the amount of enzyme obtained after a variety of treatments suggests that additional components are involved in the motile mechanism. These features distinguish the soluble flagellar enzyme from adenosine triphosphatases of other motile cells.
