Vanadium compounds are known to affect multiple membrane and cytosolic phosphoenzymes from various tissues; the most characterized effect is the inhibition of Na+-K+-ATPase. Since we previously reported that immunoreactive insulin (IRI) secretagogues tend to inhibit rat islet cation-dependent ATPases, we examined the effects of sodium vanadate on rat IRI secretion from incubated and perifused rat islets. In the presence of 2.4 mM Ca2+, vanadate (10(-3) M) induced biphasic IRI secretion with a background glucose of 100 mg/dl. In the absence of extracellular Ca2+, IRI released from incubated islets by vanadate at 100 and 300 mg/dl glucose was doubled and tripled, respectively. Furthermore, this stimulatory effect was completely abolished by known inhibitors of IRI release such as somatostatin, epinephrine, and diphenylhydantoin. Although we found the expected dose-dependent inhibition by vanadate of islet membrane Na+-K+-ATPase activity, the mechanism of action of vanadate on IRI secretion remains unknown. Vanadate probably interacts in a complex fashion with different islet phosphoenzymes and may prove to be a useful probe to further unravel the mechanisms leading to insulin secretion.

Catecholamines stimulate Na,K-ATPase activity in the microsomal membranes of the brain and brown adipose tissue. This stimulation is apparent in the absence of soluble, cytosolic inhibitors and exhibits the same characteristics in both tissues: it occurs at high concentrations (10(-6)-10(-4) M) only; there is no difference in potency between isoprenaline, norepinephrine and epinephrine (EC50 = 1-2 X 10(-5) M); the D-stereoisomer of isoprenaline is equally as effective as the L-form; stimulation of Na,K-ATPase may also be achieved by the metal chelators EDTA, EGTA and desferal; the hydrophobic beta-blockers, propranolol and alprenolol, inhibit both the norepinephrine-stimulated and basal levels of enzyme activity at concentrations of 10(-5)-10(-3) M; phenoxybenzamine, an irreversible alpha-adrenergic blocker, inhibits basal Na,K-ATPase as well as norepinephrine-stimulated enzyme activity (EC50 = 2.5 X 10(-5) M). Because none of these observations can be related to the properties of the stereospecific adrenergic receptor (alpha or beta), it may be concluded that the catecholamine-Na,K-ATPase interaction is not mediated by the receptor. More probably, catecholamines may antagonize the Na,K-ATPase inhibition caused by some tightly membrane-bound metals (but not vanadium) via the ortho-catechol moiety of the catecholamine molecule. The stimulation of brown fat Na,K-ATPase by catecholamines does not have much relevance to the norepinephrine-stimulated thermogenesis in this tissue.

Vanadate and vanadyl have many insulin-mimetic effects on cellular metabolism and also have been shown to alter cellular Ca2+ fluxes. In this report, vanadate and vanadyl, like insulin, are shown to inhibit the plasma membrane (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase/Ca2+ transport system as well as Ca2+ transport by endoplasmic reticulum from rat adipocytes. Ca2+ transport by the endoplasmic reticulum was inhibited half-maximally (I50) by vanadate and vanadyl at concentrations of 30 and 33 microM, respectively. Inhibition of the plasma membrane Ca2+ transport by vanadate and vanadyl was less sensitive, with I50 values of 144 and 92 microM, respectively. These I50 values for plasma membrane Ca2+ transport were similar when measured under conditions of calmodulin-stimulated and non-calmodulin-stimulated Ca2+ transport. The predominant effect of both ions on the kinetic parameters of Ca2+ transport was a substantial decrease in the Vmax by 43-46% for both transport systems. An increase in intracellular Ca2+ following the inhibition of the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase/Ca2+ pump in the plasma membrane and endoplasmic reticulum by these vanadium ions may result, at least in part, in the observed insulin-mimetic alterations in cellular metabolism.

There is evidence that carbamazepine is of therapeutic benefit in manic depressive illness. There is also evidence that raised vanadium levels may be of aetiological importance in manic depressive illness. The present study examined the effect, in vitro, of therapeutic concentrations of carbamazepine on the inhibition by ammonium metavanadate of the Na-K ATPase of erythrocytes from normal and from manic depressive subjects. The inhibition by vanadate was largely reversed by carbamazepine. This effect may be related to the therapeutic action of carbamazepine in manic depressive illness.

In HeLa cells two different types of mutants resistant to the cardiac glycoside ouabain (OuaR mutants) or erythrophleum alkaloid cassaine (CasR mutants) have been obtained. One type of mutants resistant to these compounds (designated as group A) are highly resistant (between 50 and 2000-fold) to various cardiac glycosides and their genins such as ouabain, oleandrin, digitoxin, digitoxigenin, strophanthidin, convallatoxin, gitoxin, gitoxigenin, gitaloxin, bufalin, and digoxigenin, but exhibit no cross-resistance to SC4453, a digoxin analog which contains a pyridazine ring in place of the lactone ring in the C-17 position. The second type of mutants (group B) exhibit cross-resistance to all of the cardiac glycosides including SC4453, but their level of resistance is at least 5-10-fold less than that of group A mutants. Interestingly, both groups of mutants exhibited similar degree of cross-resistance towards digoxin and actodigin (AY22241), indicating some differences in their behavior from other cardiac glycosides. Both classes of mutants exhibit no cross-resistance to a wide variety of other structurally and functionally related compounds, e.g. sanguinarine nitrate, ethacrynic acid, penicillic acid, veratridine, harmaline hydrochloride, 5,5'-diphenylhydantoin, quindonium bromide, methyl quinolizinum bromide, estradiol 17 beta-acetate, 21-acetoxy-pregnenolone, vanadium pentoxide, digitonin, and adriamycin, indicating that the genetic lesions in both groups of mutants are specific for cardiac glycosides. This inference is supported by the observation that both group A and B mutants show reduced binding of [3H]ouabain. In group A mutants, a part of the Na+/K+-ATPase activity is highly resistant to inhibition by ouabain, indicating that the genetic lesion in these mutants directly affects Na+/K+-ATPase. In contrast, the Na+/K+-ATPase from the group B mutants showed similar resistance towards ouabain and SC4453 as observed for the parental HeLa cells, indicating that these mutants are affected in a cellular component, other than Na+/K+-ATPase, which is involved in the interaction of cardiac glycosides with the cells. The lack of cross-resistance of the group A mutants to SC4453 and normal sensitivity of their Na+/K+-ATPase to this compound provides strong evidence that the mechanism of interaction of SC4453 with Na+/K+-ATPase differs from that of other cardiac glycosides.

In HeLa cells, stable mutants which are between 25-to about 200-fold resistant to the cardiac glycoside derivative SC4453 (a digoxin analog which contains a pyridazine ring in place of a lactone ring in the C-17 position) have been isolated after a single step selection in the presence of the drug. Based on their cross-resistance pattern towards various cardiac glycosides, the mutants resistant to SC4453 (SCR mutants) appear to be of two different kinds and they differ from the two classes of ouabain-resistant mutants described previously (Gupta, R. S., and Chopra, A. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 6843-6850). One type of SCR mutants (designated as group C) exhibit a high degree of cross-resistance to all cardiac glycosides and their genins (viz. ouabain, digitoxin, digoxin, digoxigenin, convallatoxin, gitoxin, strophanthidin, and bufalin). In contrast, the second type of SCR mutant (group D) exhibit considerable resistance to only SC4453, digoxin, and digoxigenin, but showed very little or no cross-resistance to the other cardiac glycosides examined. The cross-resistance of the mutants towards cardiac glycosides was highly specific as they exhibited no cross-resistance towards a large number of other structurally and functionally related compounds (viz. ethacrynic acid, sanguinarine nitrate, penicillic acid, methyl quinolizinum bromide, 5,5'-diphenylhydantoin, deoxycorticosterone, vanadium pentoxide, and adriamycin). The cellular uptake of 86Rb in the mutant cells was found to be resistant to specific cardiac glycosides. Studies on the sensitivity of plasma membrane Na+/K+-ATPase to cardiac glycosides show that about 10-15% of the enzymic activity in the mutant cells was highly resistant to inhibition by the specific drugs to which the mutants exhibit increased resistance. Very interestingly, when the mutant cells are grown in cardiac glycoside-containing medium, the resistant form of the enzyme accounts for about 50-60% of the total enzyme. These results show that both classes of SCR mutants are affected in Na+/K+-ATPase and that the amount of the resistant enzyme in the mutant cells is regulated in response to cardiac glycosides.

The relative toxicity of numerous cardiotonic steroids (viz. ouabain, digitoxin, digoxin, convallatoxin, SC4453, bufalin, gitaloxin, digoxigenin, actodigin, oleandrin, digitoxigenin, gitoxin, strophanthidin, gitoxigenin, lanatosides A, B and C, alpha- and beta-acetyl digoxin, alpha- and beta-methyl digoxin) and related compounds towards a number of independent cell lines established from human, monkey, mouse, Syrian hamster, and Chinese hamster have been determined. All cardiac glycosides and their genins, as well as the cardiotonic alkaloid cassaine, exhibited greater than 100-fold higher toxicity towards cultured human and monkey cells in comparison to the cell lines of mouse, Syrian hamster, and Chinese hamster origins. These differences are species-related as all cell lines (both normal as well as transformed) from any one species, as well as cells from the closely related species (e.g., man and monkey or mouse, Chinese hamster, and Syrian hamster), showed similar sensitivity towards these drugs. The failure to see any significant differences in cellular toxicity for a larger number of other compounds which either bear limited structural resemblance to cardiac glycosides (viz. estradiol 17-beta-acetate, testosterone propionate, 21-acetoxy pregnenolone, beta-estradiol, digitonin, tigogenin, and tomatine) or interact with the Na+/K+ ATPase in a different manner (viz. veratridine, sanguinarine nitrate, penicillic acid, vanadium pentoxide, harmaline-HCI,5,5'-diphenyl hydantoin, quindonium bromide, and methyl quinolizinum bromide) provides strong evidence that the observed species-related differences are highly specific for cardiotonic steroids. Studies on the binding of [3H]ouabain show that, in comparison to human and monkey cell lines, no significant binding of the drug is observed in cells derived from the resistant species (i.e., mouse and Chinese hamster). The Na+/K+ ATPase from cells of the resistant species is inhibited at much higher concentrations of ouabain and digitoxin in comparison to the enzyme from human cells, and a good correlation is observed between these concentrations and those reported for inhibition of the enzyme from isolated heart muscles of the same species. These results provide strong evidence that the species-related differences in sensitivity to digitalis have a cellular basis and that the cultured cells from various mammalian species provide a useful model system for investigating the mechanism of action of cardiac glycosides.

We evaluated the possibility that oxyions of vanadium might react with molybdate and, in that manner, interfere with the Fiske-Subbarow colorimetric determination of inorganic phosphate. Phosphate (Pi) standard curves were prepared (0.03-0.30 mumole/ml) in the presence and absence of oxyvanadium solutions (2 X 10(-4) M) prepared from ortho- and metavanadate. Molybdate prepared in 5 N sulfuric acid was added to each standard. Upon addition of a reducing agent to develop color of the phosphomolybdate complex, a less intense color was observed at any given Pi concentration in the presence of oxyvanadium species. The slope of the regression line for the Pi standard curve in the presence of 2 X 10(-4) M oxyvanadium species was markedly depressed. The effect of oxyvanadium was similar when solutions were prepared from ortho- and metavanadate, despite differences in pH of these solutions. In addition, in the final reaction the pH was similar in the presence and absence of oxyvanadium, independent of the source of vanadate used to prepare solutions. Thus, interference by oxyvanadium did not appear to be related to changes in pH of samples containing vanadium oxyions. Interference was concentration dependent and the minimal concentration of vanadium oxyions that interfered was 5 X 10(-5) M. The effects of oxyvanadium (2 X 10(-4) M) on Mg+2-dependent and Na+-K+-ATPase activities in a renal microsomal preparation were then evaluated through the measurement of inorganic phosphate generation. Enzyme activities were determined with and without correction for interference by oxyvanadium with the method of Fiske and Subbarow. A significant artifactual depression of Mg+2 ATPase activity, but not Na+-K+-ATPase activity, was consistently observed when enzyme activities were not corrected for interference by oxyvanadium with the measurement of inorganic phosphate. These data indicate that when effects of high vanadate concentrations (5 X 10(-5) M) on ATP hydrolyzing enzymes are evaluated through changes in Pi generation, artifactual depression of enzyme activity may occur.

Vanadate is known to inhibit several phosphatases including Na+, K+-ATPase, alkaline phosphatase, and glyceraldehyde-3-P dehydrogenase. Inhibition presumably results because vanadium adopts a stable structure which resembles the transition state of phosphate during the reactions involving these enzymes. We performed experiments to further examine the effects of vanadate (VO3-4) on erythrocyte (red blood cells (RBC] glycolytic intermediates. RBC obtained from human subjects were centrifuged and washed with lactated Ringer's 5% dextrose. 31P nuclear magnetic resonance analysis of the RBC revealed the characteristic peaks for the 3-phosphate and 2-phosphate of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate (DPG), inorganic phosphate (Pi), and ATP. Incubation of RBC with 10(-6) M VO3-4 led to a disappearance of ATP and 2,3-DPG while the peak for Pi increased. By the end of 4 h over 90% of the VO3-4 had been reduced to VO2+ (vanadyl) in the RBC. The effects of 10(-4) M iodoacetamide and 10(-5) M ethacrynic acid, known inhibitors of glyceraldehyde-3-P dehydrogenase that act by interactions with sulfhydryl groups (-SH) of the enzyme, were similar to those of VO3-4. Incubation with vanadyl did not affect the peaks for Pi, 2-DPG, or 3-DPG. Furthermore, using electron spin resonance we demonstrated that in the presence of glyceraldehyde-3-P dehydrogenase, VO3-4 is reduced to VO2+. The findings demonstrate that VO3-4 inhibits glycolysis at micromolar concentrations and that the ion is reduced to VO2+ in the cell. The similarity of the effect of VO3-4 to those of iodoacetamide and ethacrynic acid suggests that interactions with -SH groups is its mechanism of inhibition. Since under physiological conditions intracellular VO3-4 concentrations are in the micromolar range and may exist in oxidized and/or reduced forms, VO3-4 could regulate the activity of glyceraldehyde-3-P dehydrogenase through changes in the redox state of the enzyme rather than by substituting for the PO3-4 ion.

The binding of monovanadate and decavanadate anions to sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles was measured by equilibrium sedimentation. The affinity of vanadate binding and the molar amount of vanadium (V) bound at equilibrium is much greater with decavanadate than with monovanadate. The binding data can be rationalized in terms of one binding site per ATPase molecule for monovanadate and two sites per ATPase for decavanadate. The Ca-ATPase crystals formed with monovanadate and with decavanadate are similar in appearance, but decavanadate is particularly effective in promoting the crystallization of Ca2+-ATPase at low V concentration (10-100 microM) in a Ca2+-free medium.
