Anoxia has been compared with ischaemia. The abrupt restoration of either oxygen of flow may accelerate cardiac damage. Anoxic stimulation of glycolysis (Pasteur effect) is inhibited during ischaemia by lactate and proton accumulation at the levels of phosphofructokinase and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. Anaerobic glycolysis provides lactate and ATP; breakdown of the latter provides protons. During partial respiration thought to occur in partial ischaemia, continued production of CO2 is a factor contributing to intracellular acidosis; mitochondrial ATP when formed by continued respiration also yields protons when ultimately broken down. The endoproducts of aerobic glycolysis (pyruvate and NADH) are transported into the mitochondria by the malate-aspartate cycle and by pyruvate dehydrogenase activity. Adenine nucleotide transferase activity normally transfers the mitochondrially-made ATP to the cytoplasm, but acyl CoA accumulates in ischaemia (or during perfusions with high circulating free fatty acids) to inhibit the transferase. The mitochondrial creatine kinase is thought to transform ATP transported outwards into creatine phosphate which can permeate the outer mitochondrial membrane. Further compartmentation of ATP may be by other creatine kinase isoenzymes or in relation to the cell membrane. The glycogenolytic-sarcoplasmic reticulum complex links a glycogen pool to the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Cyclic AMP may regulate admission of calcium to the cell during the plateau of the action potential and promote calcium uptake by the sarcoplasmic reticulum by phosphorylation of phospholamban. The latter promotes the activity of the calcium-transport ATPase. Calcium and cyclic AMP may also interact at the level of the contractile proteins where cyclic AMP phosphrylates troponin. Cyclic GMP generally has opposite effects to cyclic AMP and undergoes opposite changes in the frog cardiac cycle to those of cyclic AMP. A present it is reasonable to suppose that physiological effects of adrenaline or of cholinergic agents on the myocardium are mediated by cyclic AMP or cyclic GMP, respectively, but this hypothesis still lacks firm support. There is an association between tissue cyclic AMP and ventricular fibrillation after coronary ligation, and direct evidence for a role of cyclic AMP in promoting arrhythmias has been obtained by studies on the ventricular fibrillation threshold in the rat heart. However, there are other mechanisms, involving first the effects of substrates on the action potential duration, and secondly, the fast channel, which can also give rise to the development of malignant arrhythmias.

Mammalian and avian muscles were examined histochemically and biochemically to determine the relative contribution of membrane bound (mitochondrial and sarcotubular) ATPases under the same conditions employed for myofibrillar ATPase. For histochemically investigated Ca+(+)-ATPase activity following incubation at pH 9.4 according to the calcium-citro-phosphate technique, avian muscle displayed distinct mitochondrial localization in both dark and light staining fibres. However, mitochondrial localization did not occur in mammalian muscle fibres. Pretreatment of unfixed frozen sections with ouabain, cyanide and acetone did not prevent the reticular distribution in avian muscle fibres. The present study demonstrates that "myofibrillar" localization is achieved by the Ca+(+)-precipitation technique: provided frozen sections are pretreated with cold acetone, fixed in a fixative containing oligomycin or azide and then incubated in a medium containing glycine-NaO H as buffer. Mitochondria prepared by successive mechanical homogenization or by Nagarse treatment plus 2 min homogenization develop different ATPase activities at pH 9.4 7.4 6.0 and 4.35 as well as stimulation by 70 mM Ca++ at these pHs compared to those ATPase activities in the homogenate of mixed hamster hind leg muscles. Glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and creatine kinase (both located at the outer surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane) and succinate dehydrogenase and glutamate dehydrogenase (localized at the inner mitochondrial membrane and in the matrix resp.) also show different activities in both mitochondria preparations indicating different membrane properties of both mitochondria. Evidence is obtained that using the calcium-citro-phosphate technique at pH 9.4 oligomycin-sensitive and -insensitive ATPases are activated by Ca++ in both mitochondria preparations. Since in muscle homogenate less than 10% of Ca+(+)-stimulated ATPase activity is oligomycin-sensitive, mitochondrial ATPase exhibit only a small portion of total ATPase from mixed hamster hind leg muscles.

The microsomal fraction of the rabbit skeletal muscles contains structures which absorb Ca2+ and where ATPase-aminohydrolase activities are pronounced. Electrophoresis of this fraction in the saccharose density gradient results in separation of a considerable amount of soluble proteins including creatine kinase, as a high ATPase activity and absorbing Ca2+ to an inconsiderable extent. The activity of creatine kinase in the microsomal fraction of the rabbit and rat skeletal muscles is not so high to provide for ATP regeneration from creatine phosphate in the amount sufficient for any considerable transport of Ca2+. In the microsomal fraction of the myocardium, as distinct from the skeletal muscles creatine kinase is strongly bound with its structural components and is not separated by electrophoresis.

1. Primary heart cell cultures from neonatal hamsters yielded a heterogeneous cell population, containing muscle cells undergoing progressive differentiation, as well as non-muscle cells. 2. Addition of 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine, at an early stage, to such cultures enhanced the formation of beating sheets of differentiated muscle cells. Accumulation of myosin heavy chains and creatine kinase also occurred in the presence of the analogue. 3. To obtain these effects, the analogue had to be added during the initial rapid growth phase of the cells. Division of the treated cells then ceased when the cell numbers had approximately doubled. 4. Similar results were obtained with other inhibitors of DNA synthesis. Thus improved muscle cell cultures can be obtained by preventing non-muscle cells from overgrowing the cultures. 5. One effect caused only by 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine was a large increase in the Ca2+-stimulated ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) activity which sedimented at low ionic strength. This increase was not due to a greater content of myofibrillar myosin, or to myosin isoenzyme changes, because purified myosin prepared from treated and untreated cultures did not exhibit the increased Ca2+-stimulated ATPase activity.

1. Morphologic as well as biochemical alterations in chronic ischemic myocardial tissue without infarction were studied in dogs utilizing the Ameroid constrictor. 2. Serum creatine kinase activity elevated at around three weeks after placing the Ameroid constrictor around the circumflex branch of the left coronary artery suggestive of myocardial tissue injury followed by the initial activation caused by surgery. 3. Subendocardial proliferation of connective tissue was observed in about 60% of the experiments, but the middle and the subepicardial muscles were morphologically intact. 4. The marked increase in glycogen particles was observed in the subendocardial muscle cells in most of the experiments, and mild features of myocardial cellular necrosis were found in approximately 60% of the experiments. 5. ATPase activities of the structural proteins as well as sarcoplasmic reticulum in the ischemic myocardium shoed relatively higher values than those in the non-ischemic myocardium. However, no substructural changes were observed in SDS gel electrophoresis in both the fractions. 6. The alterations in the chronic myocardial ischemia are supposed to be essentially the same as those in myocardial necrosis followed by acute coronary occlusion.

Glycerol-treated muscle fiber bundles were fixed at their rest length in 50 mM KC1, 2 mM MgC1(2), and 10 micron CaC1(2) at pH 7.8 and 0 degrees C in the presence of sufficient amounts of ATP, creatine kinase, and creatine phosphate. The fiber bundles were stretched linearly with time for 0.3 s at a constant amplitude, suddenly released, then fixed at the rest length for a constant time interval (alpha seconds). The stretch-release cycle was repeated, and the ATPase activity (the rate of ADP liberation) [EC 3.6.1.3] was measured. It was found that: 1. ATPase was activated by repeated stretch-release. As repetitive stretch-release of 1--2% of the rest length caused maximum activation, we usually selected a value of 2.5% of the rest length. The activation of ATPase was found to be a function of the duration, alpha, of the isometric phase after sudden release from stretching. The ATPase activity of fiber bundles was almost unaffected when they were oscillated by a simple stretch-release without an isometric phase after the sudden release (alpha=0). 2. The ATPase activity of oscillated muscle fibers increased with increase in the value of alpha, reached a maximal level, then decreased gradually with further increase of alpha to a value slightly larger than that of static fibers. At 0 degrees C, the value of alpha for the maximum activation was observed at about 2 s, and the maximum activity was about 2.5 times that of static fibers. At 20 degrees C, the alpha value for maximum activation was about 0.5 s, and the maximum activity was about 1.8 times that of static fibers. 3. The time course of ADP liberation after one stretch-release cycle could be easily calculated from the ATPase activity of the summed durations of the isometric phase, alpha, assuming that the ATPase activation was turned off and on by the stretching and release, respectively, and that the state of cross-bridges immediately after the stretch-release was independent of alpha of the cycle. The rate of ADP liberation after stretch-release thus obtained showed a short lag phase, a sigmoidal increase, a decrease to almost zero, then a return to nearly the original level (the rate of static fibers). About 1.3 mol of ATP per mol of myosin was hydrolyzed at both 0 degrees C and 20 degrees C during one cycle of the changes in the rate of ADP liberation.

Some recently described abnormalities in the serum and red cell membranes in Duchenne dystrophy have been examined as methods of carrier detection in a single-blind controlled study. Twelve carriers (4 definite, 3 probable and 5 possible carriers previously found to have raised creatine kinase levels) and 12 normal female controls of the same age, were examined on 3 separate occasions at approximately two-weekly intervals. Analysis of age-dependent red cell shape changes, serum haemopexin levels, red cell K+ efflux rate, sensitivity of red cell ghost membrane ATPase to ouabain, membrane protein phosphorylation studies and lactate dehydrogenase isoenzyme profiles on agarose gel electrohoresis all failed to distinquish carriers from controls. The carriers suffered muscle cramps more frequently than the controls and all but one carrier and two control subjects were correctly identified by manual muscle strength testing, certain proximal muscles in paricular being consistently weaker in carriers than in the control group subjects. Scalar electrocardiography revealed higher values for the R/S ratio in Leads V1 and V2 and the sum (R-S) in V2.

1. Addition of a non-dialysable, heat-labile and acid-precipitable factor which was not absorbed on DEAE-cellulose column, could restore the sensitivity of the chromatographed muscle pyruvate kinase from Marphysa sanguinea towards phosphocreatine inhibition. 2. This factor, being non-specific as it acts on pyruvate kinase isozymes from different sources, demonstrated high creatine kinase activity. 3. High concentrations of ADP, creatine or replacement of ADP with IDP/UDP or high pH abolished the inhibition indicating that the inhibition was mediated through creatine kinase by depleting ADP. 4. Apparent inhibition of phosphocreatine was related to the relative activities of 3 intracellular enzymes--pyruvate kinase, creatine kinase and adenosine triphosphatase.

Mitochondrial and microsomal fractions were isolated from guinea pig myocardium by differential pelleting. The mitochondrial fraction was subjected to analytical subfractionation by sucrose density gradient centrifugation and the gradient fractions assayed for marker enzymes for the various mitochondrial compartments, viz outer membrane (monoamine oxidase), intermembranous space (adenylate kinase), inner membrane (Mg2+-dependent ATPase and cytochrome c oxidase) and mitochondrial matrix (malate dehydrogenase), and for creatine kinase. Both creatine kinase and adenylate kinase were released by suspending the mitochondria in 50 mmol . litre-1 sodium phosphate buffer. Sonication or disruption with the detergent, digitonin released the adenylate kinase but the creatine kinase remained associated with the inner membranes. Subsequent salt treatment desorbed the creatine kinase from these membranes. It is concluded that creatine kinase is located to the outer aspect of the inner mitochondrial membrane. Analytical subfractionation of the microsomal fraction clearly resolved markers for the sarcolemma (5'-nucleotidase), outer mitochondrial membrane (monoamine oxidase) and endoplasmic reticulum (neutral alpha-glucosidase and RNA). Creatine kinase was localised in the endoplasmic reticulum particularly the smooth membranes.

The M-line protein which is identical to the muscle form of creatine kinase was purified from rabbit skeletal muscle using ion exchange chromatography. Gel electrophoresis in the presence and absence of sodium dodecyl sulfate revealed the protein to be homogeneous. Sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis gave 44 000 +/- 2000 as the minimum molecular weight while low speed sedimentation equilibrium experiments yielded a molecular weight of 84 000 +/- 4000, suggesting that the parent molecule is a dimer. Circular dichroism spectra revealed the presence of two negative dichroic bands located at 218 and 208 nm suggesting the presence of some beta-structure. Ellipticity values at these two wavelengths were -8000 +/- 400 and -9000 +/- 400 deg-cm2-dmol-1. Circular dichroism measurements indicated the protein to interact with myosin, heavy meromyosin and heavy meromyosin subfragment 1 (S1). The Ca2+-activated ATPase activities of myosin, heavy meromyosin and subfragment 1 were inhibited by the addition of M-line protein. When the protein was mixed with subfragment 1 in a 1:1 mole ratio in 0.15 M KC1, 50 mM Tris pH 8, low speed sedimentation equilibrium studies gave a molecular weight of 205 000 +/- 10 000 for the complex, indicative of an interaction of the two components. Both circular dichroism and sedimentation equilibrium studies indicated no interaction of M-line protein with light meromyosin.
