The membrane activity of Na+, K(+)-ATPase, Mg2+, Ca(2+)-ATPase, mitochondrial NAD-isocitrate dehydrogenase, mitochondrial and cytosolic L-glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase was determined in the liver and brain of Wistar rats under acute hypoxic hypoxia against the background of preventive taurine administration. It was shown that preliminary taurine treatment prevented a decrease of hypoxia in activity of Na+. K(+)-ATPase and mitochondrial calcium-dependent enzymes, mostly in the liver. Changes in the intracellular calcium content and biomembrane structure have been discussed as the mechanisms of the taurine effect on the enzymes' activity.

The cholinergic agonist carbachol produces a concentration-dependent (half-maximum inhibitory concentration = 0.9 microM) decrease in the Na(+)-K(+)-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity of rabbit cardiac sarcolemma that occurred only in the presence of guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (0.1 microM GTP gamma S) and reached 40% inhibition. The inhibition is blocked by the muscarinic receptor antagonist atropine (10 microM) and is abolished in sarcolemma treated with pertussis toxin (20 micrograms/ml) in the presence of 100 microM NAD. GTP gamma S alone reduces Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity by 45% (half-maximum inhibitory = 1 microM). The apparent affinity of the enzyme for GTP gamma S is increased approximately 10-fold in the presence of 1 microM carbachol. In sarcolemma solubilized with the zwitterionic detergent 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)-dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate (CHAPS, 10 mM), the GTP gamma S-dependent inhibition of the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase is also observed. Gel filtration of a CHAPS extract of sarcolemma on a Sepharose CL-6B column resulted in a separation of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase and pertussis toxin-sensitive Gi activities. Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity that was separated on the column lost its sensitivity to the inhibitory action of guanine nucleotides. Inhibitory effects (20-30%) of guanosine 5'-triphosphate analogues [Gpp(NH)p, GTP gamma S, or Gpp(CH2)p] at micromolar concentrations were restored when the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity was recombined with fractions that contained the pertussis toxin-sensitive Gi protein(s). Similar concentrations of guanosine 5'-triphosphate, guanosine 5'-diphosphate, guanosine-5'-[beta-thio]diphosphate, or App(NH)p were unable to induce the Gi protein-mediated attenuation of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity in the reconstitution system.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

A study was made of the role of prolactin (PRL) in the regulation of thyroid function in intact animals and in those exposed to stress (swimming was used as physical exercise). A single daily dose of 125 micrograms of PRL per 100 g of body mass was injected subcutaneously in 0.5 ml of saline solution during a week to male rats (control: intact rats; injection of 0.5 ml of saline solution subcutaneously). Redox enzymes; succinate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, NAD.H2 and NADP.H2, ATPase and monoamine oxidase, total protein, RNA and glycogen in glandular cells were investigated histochemically 24 h after the last injection of PRL or saline, 30 min., 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7 hours after swimming or right after complete fatigue (in the presence of experimental hyperprolactinemia). A conclusion has been made that one of the most important mechanisms of the adaptive effect of PRL is its ability to suppress thyroid function, thus decreasing the metabolism level, which results in reduction of oxygen consumption and improves body tolerance to stress.

The effect of di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) on diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-initiated preneoplastic liver lesions with expression of gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase (GGTase) and loss of adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) as well as alterations of hepatic carbohydrate metabolism in male and female Sprague-Dawley rats have been investigated. Two treatment schedules have been compared with respect to their sensitivity by the histochemical demonstration of preneoplastic islands and by the biochemical determination of alterations in enzyme activities of liver homogenates and of serum, the last indicating hepatotoxicity. For initiation, a single dose of DEN was given, followed by treatment with various doses of DEHP given three times weekly by gavage for 7 or 11 consecutive weeks. As histochemical enzyme markers, the expression of positive GGTase as well as the deficiency in ATPase were used for identification of liver foci. The weanling female rats (protocol A) were found to be more sensitive to the carcinogenic effect of DEN in view of foci incidence than the mature male rats which underwent partial hepatectomy prior to DEN application. The administration of 200 mg DEHP/kg body wt increased the incidence of ATPase-deficient foci in both male and female rats; however, concentrations of 1000 and 2000 mg DEHP/kg decreased the incidence of liver foci. The number of foci with expression of GGTase was only slightly increased in female rats following a DEHP concentration of 50 mg/kg, and 200 mg/kg body wt. DEHP alone did not induce preneoplastic lesions that could be identified by these two markers. Biochemical investigations indicate that DEHP alters the metabolic pattern in liver. An increase of the NADP-linked enzymes glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), malic enzyme, extra-mitochondrial ICDH as well as an enhancement of NAD-dependent alpha-G3PDH and lactate dehydrogenase were found following DEHP administration. On the other hand the glycolytic enzymes pyruvate kinase (PK) and enolase as well as the gluconeogenetic enzyme fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) were significantly reduced. In protocol B (male rats) the reactions of PK, FBPase and malic enzyme were more altered after DEHP exposure than in protocol A, while the activity of G6PDH was more increased in protocol A. Most enzymes being involved in the carbohydrate metabolism are influenced by DEHP in a dose-dependent manner. There was no increase in serum FBPase activity in both male and female rats after DEHP treatment but a reduction of glutamate-oxalate-transaminase and glutamate-pyruvate-transaminase activities was observed.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

The effects of butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), a commonly used food antioxidant, on oxygen consumption, ATPase activity, and the redox state of some electron carriers of rat liver mitochondria have been studied. It was observed that BHA slightly stimulated state 4 respiration but strongly inhibited ADP- and uncoupler-stimulated respiration on NAD(+)- and FAD-linked substrates. ATPase activity and vectorial H+ ejection were affected only slightly by BHA, suggesting that BHA predominantly inhibits mitochondrial electron flow. Experiments to determine its site of action showed that BHA did not noticeably affect electron flow through cytochrome oxidase; in contrast, NADH:duroquinone reductase activity and electron flow through ubiquinone-cytochrome b-cytochrome c complex were inhibited strongly because the oxidation of duroquinol was affected markedly. The BHA block of electron transport was bypassed by both N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine and 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol. Also, the presence of BHA changed the redox state of cytochrome b and c1 to a more oxidized level. These observations suggest that electron transport is inhibited by BHA at the NADH-ubiquinone and at the ubiquinone-cytochrome b levels. From Hill plots, it is clear that more than one binding site is involved in complete inhibition; in addition, available evidence suggests that there may be two sites at the substrate side of ubiquinone and another two sites at the oxygen side of ubiquinone. Consequently, mitochondrial ATP synthesis would be interrupted. This event could be related to the toxicity of BHA.

The reverse reaction of the ADP-ribosylation of actin by Clostridium botulinum C2 toxin and Clostridium perfringens iota-toxin was studied. In the presence of nicotinamide (30-50 mM) C2 toxin and iota-toxin decreased the radioactive labeling of [32P]ADP-ribosylated actin and catalyzed the formation of [32P]NAD. The pH optima for both reactions were 5.5-6.0. Concomitant with the removal of ADP-ribose, the ability of actin to polymerize was restored and actin ATPase activity increased. Neither ADP-ribosylation nor removal of ADP-ribose was observed after treatment of actin with EDTA, indicating that the native structure of actin is required for both reactions. ADP-ribosylation of platelet actin by C2 toxin was reversed by iota-toxin, confirming recent reports that both toxins modify the same amino acid in actin. However, C. botulinum C2 toxin was not able to cleave ADP-ribose from skeletal muscle actin which had been incorporated by iota-toxin, corroborating the different substrate specificities of both toxins.

Heart mitochondria isolated from 14- to 21-day-old chicks are highly coupled and often have respiratory control ratio (RCR) values exceeding 100. This paper presents data from a study of some of the properties of these mitochondria. The studies show that: (a) The ADP:O ratios and the state 4 rates of respiration are highly dependent upon the concentration of mitochondria at which these parameters are measured. (b) The mitochondrial isolate is contaminated with at least two divalent cation-stimulated ATPase, of which one is the F1F0-ATPase of broken mitochondria. (c) The oligomycin-sensitive component of state 4 respiration is completely inhibited by ethylene glycol bis(beta-amino-ethylether) N,N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA). This inhibition is biphasic and attributable to the differential affinity of EGTA for Ca(II) and Mg(II). (d) Ca(II) and Mg(II) stimulate state 4 respiration, thereby depressing RCR values. These cations also decrease ADP:O ratios from greater than or equal to 3.25 to 3.0 for some NAD-linked substrates. (e) Uncoupled (i.e., oligomycin-insensitive) state 4 respiration can be abolished by treating the mitochondria with Nagarse and by preincubating mitochondria with exogenous substrate. (f) The ADP:O ratios obtained when these heart mitochondria oxidize pyruvate/malate, alpha-ketoglutarate, and beta-hydroxybutyrate are fractional and significantly greater than 3.0.

The relationships between Na/K pump activity and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production were determined in isolated rat brain synaptosomes. The activity of the enzyme was modulated by altering [K+]e, [Na+]i, and [ATP]i while synaptosomal oxygen uptake and lactate production were measured simultaneously. KCl increased respiration and glycolysis with an apparent Km of about 1 mM which suggests that, at the [K+]e normally present in brain, 3.3-4 mM, the pump is near saturation with this cation. Depolarization with 6-40 mM KCl had negligible effect on ouabain-sensitive O2 uptake indicating that at the voltages involved the activity of the Na/K ATPase is largely independent of membrane potential. Increases in [Na+]i by addition of veratridine markedly enhanced glycoside-inhibitable respiration and lactate production. Calculations of the rates of ATP synthesis necessary to support the operation of the pump showed that greater than 90% of the energy was derived from oxidative phosphorylation. Consistent with this: (a) the ouabain-sensitive Rb/O2 ratio was close to 12 (i.e., Rb/ATP ratio of 2); (b) inhibition of mitochondrial ATP synthesis by Amytal resulted in a decrease in the glycoside-dependent rate of 86Rb uptake. Analyses of the mechanisms responsible for activation of the energy-producing pathways during enhanced Na and K movements indicate that glycolysis is predominantly stimulated by increase in activity of phosphofructokinase mediated via a rise in the concentrations of adenosine monophosphate [AMP] and inorganic phosphate [Pi] and a fall in the concentration of phosphocreatine [PCr]; the main moving force for the elevation in mitochondrial ATP generation is the decline in [ATP]/[ADP] [Pi] (or equivalent) and consequent readjustments in the ratio of the intramitochondrial pyridine nucleotides [( NAD]m/[NADH]m). Direct stimulation of pyruvate dehydrogenase by calcium appears to be of secondary importance. It is concluded that synaptosomal Na/K pump is fueled primarily by oxidative phosphorylation and that a fall in [ATP]/[ADP][Pi] is the chief factor responsible for increased energy production.

The effect of halothane, a potent and popular volatile anesthetic, on isolated rat liver mitochondria was examined. Halothane inhibited state 3 and dinitrophenol-induced uncoupled respiration with NAD(+)-linked substrates, but not with FAD-linked substrates, and did not affect the oxidation-reduction state of mitochondrial cytochromes. Moreover, halothane increased state 4 respiration and ATPase activity and decreased the extra-mitochrondrial pH change coupled to ATP synthesis. These results indicate that halothane impairs mitochondrial ATP production by interfering with both the electron transport from NAD+ to FAD and the coupling of oxidative phosphorylation. Halothane only slightly affected the membrane potential, which is commonly dissipated by typical classical uncouplers. Moreover, halothane inhibited both ATP-driven and respiration-driven Ca2+ accumulation in mitochondria and stimulated Ca2+ release from mitochondrial stores at concentrations higher than those at which it inhibited ATP production. These findings indicate that the uncoupling action of halothane is not classical. During halothane anesthesia, these mitochondrial abnormalities may contribute to hepatocyte dysfunctions.

Glucose absorption was investigated in isolated perfused proximal straight tubules from rats by use of a newly developed ultramicrofluorometric assay. This assay takes advantage of the increase in fluorescence associated with the reduction of NAD to NADH while glucose is degraded to 6-phosphogluconate. When tubules were perfused at 6.70 +/- 0.42 nl.mm-1.min-1, the mean rate of glucose absorption was 11.0 +/- 1.0 pmol.mm-1.min-1, and the mean rate of fluid absorption was 0.61 +/- 0.06 nl.mm-1.min-1. Glucose transport is generally due to Na-glucose cotransport in the proximal nephron. In the rat proximal straight tubule, glucose absorption also appeared to be primarily due to Na-glucose cotransport, since 10(-4) M phlorizin inhibited absorption by 100%, as did inhibition of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase by K removal. To determine the maximum rate of transport, tubules were perfused at rates greater than 20 nl.mm-1.min-1 with a solution containing 5.5 mM glucose. The maximum rate of glucose absorption was approximately 20 pmol.mm-1.min-1 under these conditions. The concentration of glucose that supports 50% of the maximum rate of absorption, Km, was 0.6 mM. When tubules were perfused at flow rates of less than or equal to 2 nl.mm-1.min-1, the luminal glucose concentration reached a limiting value of 0.47 mM with 5.5 mM glucose in the bath. The glucose permeability was 3.1 X 10(-6) cm/s.
