Isolated adult rat hearts perfused in an isovolumic mode were used to study the effects of sodium-potassium pump inhibition and sodium-calcium exchange alterations on the tissue content of adenosine triphosphate, phosphocreatine, inorganic phosphate, and intracellular pH, all measured by phosphorus-31 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Rates of oxygen consumption, contractile function, and the cell contents of calcium, sodium, and potassium also were determined. The inhibition of sodium-potassium adenosine triphosphatase, either by the reduction in perfusate potassium from 5.9 to 1 millimolar or less, or by the addition of 10(-4) molar ouabain, transiently increased systolic pressure. This was followed by a decrease in systolic pressure, an increase in diastolic pressure, and eventual inexcitability. This contractile profile was accompanied by a persistent increase in oxygen consumption, a monotonic decline in cellular adenosine triphosphate and phosphocreatine content, the development of marked intracellular acidosis, a gain in cell sodium and calcium content, and a reduction in cell potassium. Quite similar metabolic changes were also observed when cell calcium was increased after a reduction in perfusate sodium. These metabolic and contractile effects could be prevented or reversed by decreasing perfusate calcium. The results emphasize the profound role of calcium in modulating cell oxygen consumption, energy balance, pH, excitability, and force production. These data are discussed in light of changes in the myocardial energy supply/demand balance, as well as from the viewpoint of the known competition between mechanisms for mitochondrial calcium transport vs. high-energy phosphate production.

The chromium(III) complex of ATP, an MgATP complex analogue, inactivates (Na+ + K+)-ATPase by forming a stable chromo-phosphointermediate. The rate constant k2 of inactivation at 37 degrees C of the beta, gamma-bidentate of CrATP is enhanced by Na+ (K0.5 = 1.08 mM), imidazole (K0.5 = 15 mM) and Mg2+ (K0.5 = 0.7 mM). These cations did not affect the dissociation constant of the enzyme-chromium-ATP complex. The inactive chromophosphoenzyme is reactivated slowly by high concentrations of Na+ at 37 degrees C. The half-maximal effect on the reactivation was reached at 40 mM NaCl, when the maximally observable reactivation was studied. However, 126 mM NaCl was necessary to see the half-maximal effect on the apparent reactivation velocity constant. K+ ions hindered the reactivation with a Ki of 70 microM. Formation of the chromophosphoenzyme led to a reduction of the Rb+ binding sites and of the capacity to occlude Rb+. The beta, gamma-bidentate of chromium(III)ATP (Kd = 8 microM) had a higher than the alpha, beta, gamma-tridentate of chromium(III)ATP (Kd = 44 microM) or the cobalt tetramine complex of ATP (Kd = 500 microM). The beta, gamma-bidentate of the chromium(III) complex of adenosine 5'-[beta, gamma-methylene]triphosphate also inactivated (Na+ + K+)ATPase. Although CrATP could not support Na+, K+ exchange in everted vesicles prepared from human red blood cells, it supported the Na+-Na+ and Rb+-Rb+ exchange. It is concluded that CrATP opens up Na+ and K+ channels by forming a relatively stable modified enzyme-CrATP complex. This stable complex is also formed in the presence of the chromium complex of adenosine 5'-[beta, gamma-methylene]triphosphate. Because the beta, gamma-bidentate of chromium ATP is recognized better than the alpha, beta, gamma-tridentate, it is concluded that the triphosphate site recognizes MgATP with a straight polyphosphate chain and that the Mg2+ resides between the beta- and the gamma-phosphorus. The enhancement of inactivation by Mg2+ and Na+ may be caused by conformational changes at the triphosphate site.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether phospholipids (PL) play a role in the adaptation to metabolic acidosis by toad urinary bladder epithelium. Toads were placed in an NH4Cl acidosis for 48 hr. Quarter bladders were removed and incubated with [32P]orthophosphate or [3H]arachidonic acid for 1 hr at 25 degrees C. PL were detected by thin layer chromatography, autoradiography, and quantitated by liquid scintillation counting or fractional amounts were determined from phosphate content and expressed as counts per minute per micromolar of total phosphate or as percentage of fraction of total PL. Incorporation of [3H]arachidonic acid into urinary bladder PL was measured in acidotic and normal toads. There was a higher rate of arachidonic acid incorporation into several PL in acidotic animals. Phosphatidic acid and phosphatidylserine fraction in acidosis was 37,705 +/- 6,821 and in normal bladders was 9,254 +/- 2,652 (P less than 0.005); phosphatidylcholine fraction in acidotic toads was 80,462 +/- 16,862 and in normal bladders was 26,892 +/- 5,198 (P less than 0.025); and the phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) fraction in acidotic was 48,665 +/- 10,998 and in normal animals was 17,441 +/- 3,905 (P less than 0.025). 32P labeling revealed a higher rate of incorporation in bladders from acidotic toads compared with normal toads. In the acidotic bladders, the phosphatidic acid and phosphatidylserine fraction was 19,754 +/- 3,597 and in normal bladders was 12,980 +/- 1,394 (P less than 0.05) and for PE acidotic bladders was 9,129 +/- 1,304 and in normal bladders was 3,285 +/- 416 (P less than 0.001). Fractional PL (reported as percentage of fraction of total PL based on total lipid phosphorus) analysis in normal toads revealed phosphatidylinositol = 8.1 +/- 0.6% and PE = 27 +/- 1.2%, whereas for acidotic toads phosphatidylinositol = 11 +/- 0.6% and PE = 32 +/- 1.0% (P less than 0.01 for both). Aldosterone, a known stimulator of acidification, had no effect on 32P incorporation into PL fractions of the bladder. The increase in PL turnover following induction of acidosis is consistent with increased membrane synthesis or turnover during metabolic acidosis and this may reflect an increased transport of vesicular H+-ATPase into the apical membrane or the result of a proliferation of acid-secreting mitochondria-rich cells or both.

Acute alcohol intoxication (AAI, 2.5 g/kg intraperitoneally) was found to be followed by ATP level increase in all brain regions under study. As a result, creatinine kinase and ATPase activities were decreased. Following administration of lithium carbonate (80 mg/kg intragastrically) and ethanol, the content of ATP was increased in the thalamus and cerebellum regions while ATPase activity and non-organic phosphorus level were decreased. Under this condition creatinine kinase activity in the brain cortex as well as in the cerebellum increased as compared to AAI group of animals.

The development of symptomatic hyponatremia in otherwise healthy young women can result in death or permanent brain damage. The reasons for the increased female susceptibility to complications from hyponatremia are, however, unclear. To determine whether mechanisms that normally defend the brain against damage from hyponatremia are less effective in females than males, we studied both sodium transport in the brains of hyponatremic male and female rats and the effects of parenteral arginine vasopressin on brain high-energy phosphate metabolism and intracellular pH. Basal sodium uptake in synaptosomes prepared from whole brain of females (2.20 nmol/mg protein) and males (2.98 nmol/mg protein) was not statistically different. In contrast, veratridine-stimulated sodium uptake in female brain was 8.20 nmol/mg protein, which was 86% greater (P less than 0.001) than the 6.12 nmol/mg protein observed for male brain. Additionally, sodium uptake between 5 and 60 s was significantly (P less than 0.001) greater in females than males. These data suggest that the Na+-K+-adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) pump function in female rat brain synaptosomes is less effective than in males. To determine whether arginine vasopressin, a peptide hormone that promotes water retention by the kidney, had any effects on cerebral energy metabolism, we performed phosphorus-31 (31P) magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) studies on the brain of normonatremic young adult male and female rats subjected to high (20 IU) peripheral doses of arginine vasopressin. We found decreased high-energy phosphate generation, elevated inorganic phosphate, and intracellular acidosis after arginine vasopressin administration in females but not males.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The fields of muscle physiology and biochemistry have already identified some of the key components of ATPase hydrolysis products that are involved in muscle fatigue. The concentration of the relevant chemical species can be readily measured by nuclear magnetic resonance techniques in muscle. Now the question is: is alteration of cellular energy balance and the normal balance between supply and demand disturbed in fibromyalgia? Since these chemical events account for a very large amount of muscle reduced performance as well as reduction in both velocity and force, at the very least one ought to identify how large these changes are in any patient in whom we are trying to assess the degree to which these chemical changes might be associated with muscle fatigue. An objective chemical criteria for muscle performance is possible with modern noninvasive phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) is an agonist used to identify neuronal receptive sites for dicarboxylic amino acid neurotransmitters; NMDA receptors are implicated in neuronal damage of ischemic or hypoglycemic origin in newborns although involved mechanisms remain to be identified. In the present study, 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy with fast (6/min) data acquisition was used in newborn rat brain slices to measure changes of intracellular phosphocreatine and nucleotide triphosphate levels following extracellular NMDA applications. The rapid exhaustion of phosphocreatine stores in 50% of the total population of brain cells was induced in all cases by application of NMDA (30-45 s, 25-100 mM). It was not reproduced by other excitatory agents: potassium ions (24.6 mM, 4 min), isobutylxanthine (1mM), muscarine (10 mM), serotonin (0.1 mM) or substance P (10 microM). Such an effect of NMDA was not modified after tetrodotoxin (1 microM) and was reduced by extracellular 2-amino-5-phosphonovalerate (50 microM) or magnesium ions (2.2 mM). However it did develop during NMDA-induce neuronal excitations and was reversible within 10-30 min. This action of NMDA was followed by an irreversible decrease of phosphorus metabolites if mitochondrial creatine kinase and adenosine triphosphatase were decoupled by atractyloside (50 microM). Experiments revealed a link between selective NMDA action at neuronal plasma membranes, neurotoxicity and energy production by mitochondria.

Phosphoinositide content was measured in erythrocyte membranes from 11 patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) and from 12 control subjects to determine whether altered levels of phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (Ptdlns4P) or phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (Ptdlns(4,5)P2) are responsible for the decrease in Ca2+-adenosine triphosphatase (Ca2+-ATPase) activity in this disorder. Isolated membranes were extracted with an acidified chloroform-methanol solvent system. The recovered lipids were separated by one-dimensional thin-layer chromatography and quantified with a colorimetric assay for phosphorus. The results are expressed in molar percent, moles of phosphoinositide times 100 divided by the total number of moles of phospholipid per membrane. The means +/- SEM of Ptdlns(4,5)P2, Ptdlns4P, and phosphatidylinositol (Ptdlns) in CF membranes (1.07 +/- 0.18, 1.02 +/- 0.22, and 2.32 +/- 0.36 molar percent, respectively) were indistinguishable from controls (0.91 +/- 0.14, 0.85 +/- 0.12, and 2.21 +/- 0.32 molar percent, respectively) (P greater than 0.20 for all three pairs). The accuracy of quantitative recovery throughout the procedure was determined by adding a radioactive internal standard, L-3-phosphatidyl[2-3H]inositol to 10 membrane preparations. Although quantitative recoveries, as determined by percent radioactivity recovered, varied from 54% to 92%, mean Ptdlns(4,5)P2, Ptdlns4P, and Ptdlns levels appropriately corrected from tracer loss were still indistinguishable between the two groups. We conclude that absolute phosphoinositide levels are not altered in cystic fibrosis erythrocyte membranes and that the differences in Ca2+-ATPase activity cannot be explained on this basis.

The effects of a high dose of acetylcholine (ACh) on oxygen consumption (VO2) and changes in phosphorus energy metabolites during secretion were studied in isolated perfused mandibular gland of rats at 24 degrees C. Sugar phosphates (SP), Pi, phosphocreatine (PCr), and ATP were identified by phosphorus-31 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. One micromole ACh induced a tachyphylactic secretory response, a persistently elevated VO2, and decreased PCr and ATP; 1 mM ACh caused an initial burst of secretion that was followed by suppression of secretion and a rapid increase in the VO2 to the same level as that with 1 microM ACh. These findings indicate a dissociation between secretion and VO2. During stimulation with 1 mM ACh, the level of PCr first decreased and then partially recovered, but the level of ATP continued to decrease and the levels of Pi and SP increased markedly. These findings suggest compartmentalization of creatine phosphokinase (CPK) systems and the possibility that a high concentration of ACh interferes with the transport of PCr between one CPK system near adenosinetriphosphatase and another system near mitochondria in acinar cells.

The enamel organ of growing rat incisors was perfusion-fixed with a mixture of formaldehyde and glutaraldehyde and processed for ultracytochemical demonstration of ouabain-resistant, K+-stimulated p-nitrophenylphosphatase representing the second dephosphorylative step of H-K-ATPase by use of the one-step lead method. Throughout the stages of amelogenesis, the enzymatic activity was found in the plasma membranes, mitochondrial membranes, and lysosomal structures of the cells of stratum intermedium, papillary layer, and ameloblast layer. Gap junctions and desmosomes between these cells were, however, free of reaction product or showed slight precipitates of reaction. The stellate reticulum and the outer enamel epithelium at the stage of enamel secretion were usually negative for reaction. Although secretory, transition, and ruffle-ended maturation ameloblasts showed enzymatic activity at their basolateral cell surfaces, their distal cell surfaces facing the enamel were always free of reaction product. On the other hand, the smooth-ended maturation ameloblasts seldom showed a positive reaction, except in lysosomes and along their basal cell surfaces. An energy-dispersive X-ray microanalysis of reaction products of H-K-ATPase in unosmicated tissue sections demonstrated that they were composed of lead and phosphorus, which had been released during the dephosphorylation of substrate. In cytochemical controls, the enzymatic activity was completely dependent on substrate and potassium ion, resistant to ouabain and levamisole, and inhibited by nolinium bromide, a specific inhibitor of H-K-ATPase. In addition, inorganic trimetaphosphatase as enzymatic marker of lysosome was localized in dark and pale lysosomes, phagosomes, multivesicular bodies, and ferritin-containing vesicles of the ameloblasts and the cells of stratum intermedium and papillary layer. These membrane-bound structures were also positive for H-K-ATPase reaction. These results suggest that: 1) H-K-ATPase functions to maintain an acidic internal pH of lysosomes in the enamel organ cells; and 2) H-K-ATPase localization in the plasma membranes of enamel organ cells is concerned with efflux of protons derived from cytoplasmic water.
