It has been shown that the activity of Ca(2+)-ATPase increases during development. Epinephrine in vivo increases the activity of Ca(2+)-ATPase in chick skeletal muscles. The effect of hormone is lacking at embryonic stages of development and appears only before hatching. In the presence of exogenous protein kinase, cAMP also increases the activity of the enzyme, this effect being observed also in embryonic muscles. Lack of effect of epinephrine on Ca(2+)-ATPase in embryonic muscles is associated with non-reactivity of their adenylate cyclase to catecholamines. Ca(2+)-ATPase itself already at embryonic period is ready to react to cAMP. It is concluded that Ca(2+)-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum is one of the sites of action of catecholamines on calcium metabolism in muscle cell and that this action is realized via the system adenylate cyclase-cAMP-protein kinase.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether the previously reported differences in adenylate cyclase activity between the sarcolemma of normal and dystrophic chick muscles are also found in the SR, to search for a possible relationship between the adenylate cyclase changes and the pathophysiology of dystrophy, and to investigate whether the findings can be extended to Duchenne human muscular dystrophy by studying the adenylate cyclase and ATPase activities of erythrocyte ghosts from DMD patients and carriers. Microsomes were separated by standard techniques from the pectoralis muscles of normal and dystrophic ckeckens of various ages. The microsomal yields were significantly larger in dystrophic muscles. Adenylate cyclase activities in dystrophic microsomes were higher than those in matched controls and increased with the progression of the disease. The ratio between the two rose from one at 2 weeks of age to nine at about 9--10 weeks. Kinetic analyses showed that the ks for MgATP2- was about 40 microM (at 3 mM Mg2+ and 0.3 mM Ca2+) both in normal and dystrophic microsomes, that calcium caused umcompetitive inhibition of the enzyme (Ki = 0.2 mM), that the effect of calcium was noncooperative (Hill coefficient, nH = 1), that calcium did not affect the cooperativity for MgATP2-, and that magnesium competitively removed the calcium inhibition and caused additional, cooperative stimulation of the enzymatic activity (ka = 1.5 mM; NH =2). The major difference between normal and dystrophic adenylate cyclase was a higher enzymatic velocity in the latter, suggesting a larger amount of enzyme. We investigated whether altered cAMP levels may effect calcium accumulation. Calcium uptake measured (in the presence of oxalate) at several ages revealed no difference between normal and dystrophic chickens. The extent of calcium binding was also similar, although the kd for Ca2+ was lower in dystrophic microsomes. Binding was enhanced in the presence of exogenous protein kinase, but the responses of normal and dystrophic tissues were similar. We concluded that the elevation of adenylate cyclase in dystrophy was not related to microsomal calcium accumultion. Ivestigation of the localization of microsomal adenylate cyclase supported this view. Separation of calcium-loaded microsomes on a discontinuous sucrose gradient into four fractions demonstrated that adenylate cyclase activity, measured in the presence of Lubrol-PX and EGTA, was inversely related to calcium-accumulating activity. Na+, K+-ATPase comigrated with adenylate cyclase. Highest specific activities were found in the lightest fraction. These observations were confirmed by histochemical studies. The reaction product from adenylate cyclase activity was present predominantly in the terminal cisternae of the SR. In the context of the literature, our findings suggest that the rises in adenylate cyclase and Na+, K+-ATPase in avian dystrophy are compensatory changes, elicited by a defect in ECC at the calcium release step...

Isoelectric focusing of a purified fraction of thermostable modulator of 3',5'-AMP-dependent protein kinase revealed five individual proteins, the main protein having an isoelectric point of 4,05. The molecular weight of this protein as determined by gel filtration is 8000--9000. The protein with a pI of 4,05 binds Ca2+ and in contrast to the original modulator inhibits the endogenous 3',5'-AMP-dependent phosphorylation of synaptic membranes. An addition of the original modulator fraction to the microsomes isolated from nervous tissue increases the Mg, Ca-ATPase activity and absorption of 45Ca. Neither the protein with a pI of 4,05 nor other individual proteins affect the activity of transport ATPase. The activating effect is partly restored after mixing of all the five subfractions. It is assumed that these proteins are aggregated by Ca2+ and change the activity of ATPase or membrane 3',5'-AMP-dependent protein kinase depending on the concentration of calcium ions.

Ethanol and other alcohols stimulate adenylate cyclase activity in various tissues and potentiate its stimulation by some hormones. This effect, however, usually requires a high alcohol concentration. In some cases, an unknown substance, different from cyclic AMP, was formed from ATP in the presence of an alcohol and mimicked stimulation of adenylate cyclase. Ethanol inhibits phosphodiesterase activity in some tissues. In the brain, only the low affinity enzyme of pons-medulla region is inhibited. ATP levels and ATPase activities are affected by ethanol treatment and this can lead to secondary changes of the cyclic AMP levels. Cyclic AMP levels in the brain and liver are decreased by acute ethanol administration while levels in other organs are unchanged. High doses of ethanol inhibit the postdecapitation-induced rise of cyclic AMP level in the brain while low ethanol doses potentiate the postdecapitation rise of cyclic AMP in the lower brain stem. Chronic ethanol administration increases basal adenylate cyclase activity and cyclic AMP levels, and decreases stimulation of adenylate cyclase by norepinephrine in the brain. In contrast, the stimulation of cyclic AMP formation by norepinephrine and other biogenic amines is increased in the brain of ethanol-withdrawn animals. Chronic administration of ethanol affects also cyclic AMP levels and cyclic AMP formation in some peripheral organs. Cyclic AMP might be involved in ethanol-induced fatty liver, since it activates hepatic lipase and might also participate in the fatty acid oxidation.

Salmonella typhimurium, an organism that invades intestinal mucosa but does not elaborate a traditional enterotoxin, evokes ileal secretion by causing alterations in active sodium and chloride transport mechanisms. To evaluate the possibility that these changes in transport might be related to the adenylate cyclase-cyclic AMP or NA+-K+-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) systems, mucosal adenylate cyclase, cAMP phosphodiesterase, Na+-K+ and Mg++ ATPase activities, and cAMP concentrations were measured in rabbit ileal loops infected with two strains of S. typhimurium. Strain TML invades the mucosa and evokes fluid secretion whereas strain SL 1027 invades but does not evoke secretion. Cholera toxin-stimulated loops were also studied. When compared to control loops, TML-infected mucosa demonstrated a marked increase in adenylate cyclase activity, in cAMP concentration, and no change in phosphodiesterase or ATPase activities. SL 1027-infected mucosa demonstrated no change in either adenylate cyclase or ATPase activities. Indomethacin pretreatment of cyclase activation. In contrast, indomethacin pretreatment of cholera toxin exposed animals resulted in only a partial reduction of secretion while not altering the stimulation of adenylate cyclase. These results suggest that: (1) S. typhimurium causes ileal secretion by stimulating adenylate cyclase; (2) mucosal invasion alone (SL 1027) is not sufficient to activate adenylate cyclase, and (3) Na+-K+-ATPase does not appear to be involved in salmonella-induced secretion. The mechanism of salmonella activation of adenylate cyclase is unclear but apparently differs from that of cholera toxin in that it is inhibited by indomethacin. This might be explained by the participation of prostaglandins in the salmonella activation process.

Cyclic 3',5-AMP in vitro increased the activity of Na+, K+-ATPase, isolated from cortex and medulla of rabbit kidney. Maximal stimulating effect was observed in kidney cortex at 10(-6) M concentration and in medulla at 10(-4) M concentration of 3',5'-AMP. Under these conditions the enzymatic activity was increased by 24.6 +/- 4.1% and 27.9 +/- 7.7%, respectively. These data suggest that Na+, K+-ATPase, activated by cyclic 3',5'-AMP, is directly involved in the mechanism of Na+ transport in cells of osmoregulating organs.

Sarcolemmal membranes isolated from guinea pig heart ventricles contained an ATP-dependent calcium-sequestering activity. Sarcolemmal calcium accumulation but not binding was enhanced by preincubation of membranes with exogenous protein kinase, with cyclic AMP, or with isoproterenol. Protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.37) increased the V of Ca2+ accumulation by sarcolemma without any significant effect on the affinity for Ca2+. The endogenous protein kinase activity present in isolated sarcolemma affected membrane phosphorylation. Cyclic AMP increased the endogenous kinase activity modestly, whereas histone increased it significantly. Exogenous protein kinase also catalyzed phosphorylation of these membranes. Endogenous and exogenous kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation of sarcolemma was hydroxylamine-insensitive. Ca2+-dependent ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) (extra ATPase) activity of sarcolemma was also increased by protein kinase.

Liver plasma membranes (LPM) were isolated from rats fed an essential fatty acid-supplemented diet (+EFA) or from rats fed an essential fatty acid-deficient diet (-EFA). The proportions of linoleate and arachidonate in membrane total fatty acids in the -EFA preparations were one-half or less than the values for the +EFA preparations. Basal, F-, or glucagon-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities were significantly lower in EFA-deficient livers than in nondeficient ones. Addition of GTP significantly enhanced glucagon-stimulated adrenylate cyclase in both groups, but extent of stimulation above basal was greater in EFA-deficient livers. Portal vein injection of glucagon in vivo resulted in significantly higher cAMP formation in +EFA livers than in -EFA livers. When glucagon was used in vitro at 1-1,000 nM, stimulation of adenylate cyclase remained lower in EFA-deficient membranes, but extent of stimulation above basal activity was larger in -EFA membranes than in +EFA. Total Na+, K+ (Mg2+)-ATPase from EFA-depleted LPM exhibited significantly higher values of apparent Km and Vmax-5'-Nucleotidase activity, in contrast, was considerably decreased in EFA-deficient rats. These findings show that, in animals, changes in unsaturated fatty acid composition can affect the properties of membrane-bound enzymes. These alterations could be due to changes in membrane physical properties and/or prostaglandin formation.

1. Extracts of several plant species contained nucleoside-AMP phosphotransferase activity. The ratio of activity with thymidine to that with uridine as nucleoside substrate was essentially constant, both between species and throughout plant development. Evidence is presented that the total thymidine-AMP phosphotransferase activity of the leaves of Asplenium nidus (bird's-nest fern) and of Helianthus tuberosus (Jerusalem artichoke) increases during maturation. 2. Thymidine-AMP phosphotransferase was purified 22-fold from a very rich source of this activity, extracts of A. nidus. 3. A broad specificity towards both nucleoside and nucleoside 5'-monophosphate substrates is displayed by this preparation, and the evidence suggests that all could be due to a single enzyme. 4. Nucleosides that act as substrates will also inhibit phosphotransfer to other nucleosides, with Ki values close to the corresponding Km values found when utilized as substrates. 5. Ca2+-activated ATP phosphohydrolase was separated from the phosphotransferase by differential complexing to Blue Dextran in the presence of urea, whereas an AMP phosphohydrolase activity was closely associated with thymidine-AMP phosphotransferase through all separation techniques used. 6. Metal ions did not activate either of the latter two activities, and 1,10-phenanthroline was found to inhibit the phosphotransferase. 7. Km values for AMP for the respective activities were 0.11 mM (thymidine phosphotransferase) and 0.20 mM (AMP phosphohydrolase) and for thymidine (phosphotransferase only) 0.88 mM. 8. 3':5'-Cyclic AMP was found to inhibit both phosphotransferase and AMP phosphohydrolase activities, with Ki values of 0.056 mM and 0.15 mM respectively. It is suggested that this inhibitor would be of value in revealing the existence of thymidine kinase in plant extracts with high thymidine phosphotransferase activity.

A mitochondria-free membrane fraction prepared from rat myometrium accumulated 45Ca2+ in the presence of oxalic acid and ATP. The rate of transport of Ca2+ into the membranous vesicles was increased by greater than 50% in the presence of 3',5'-cyclic AMP, but not by 2',3'-cyclic AMP or 5'AMP. Membrane ATPase activity was stimulated by Mg2+; slight additional stimulation was obtained in the presence of Na+ and K+ but not in the presence of Ca+2. Despite the cyclic AMP sensitivity of membrane ATPase activity, the absence of any effect of inhibitors of Ca2+-transport suggest it has little to do with Ca2+ accumulation by the membranes. Cyclic AMP-induced increase in Ca2+-transport and membrane ATPase activity was duplicated in vivo by incubating uteri in 10(-4)M isoproterenol prior to membrane isolation. Isoproterenol has been previously shown to increase myometrial cyclic AMP levels, and changes in Ca2+-transport by cell membranes in relation to intracellular cyclic AMP levels may be the mechanism through which hormones modulate uterine contractility.
