The enzyme Na+,K+-ATPase is a good model for receptor studies because of its known functional correlates. The binding of digitalis to the enzyme observed in vitro satisfied the criteria for receptor binding. Studies of the relationship between the digitalis binding and the drug action reveal an impressive correlation between these events but fail to provide proof of a causal relationship. Studies with other Na+,K+-ATPase inhibitors and agents that affect transmembrane Na+ movements (steps that would follow Na+,K+-ATPase inhibition) provide further supportive evidence that sodium pump inhibition and the resulting enhancement of intracellular Na+ transients cause the inotropic action of digitalis.

A computer simulation indicates that intracellular sodium concentration within a space near the inner surface of sarcolemma fluctuates during a cycle of myocardial function. The sodium transient (a transient increase in sodium ion concentration associated with membrane excitation) is enhanced by the inhibition of (Na+, K+)-ATPase by ouabain, but an accumulation of myocardial sodium does not occur until the inhibition exceeds a critical point. The critical magnitude of sodium pump inhibition that causes a progressive sodium accumulation is dependent on the heart rate.

The short circuit current and the open circuit voltage responses of membranes to ATP, which have been attributed to membrane ATPase acting as a sodium pump, have been reproduced not only in a lipid membrane containing solubilized ATPase but also in membranes formed of the phospholipids contained in ATPase. The response is greatest with cardiolipin, but occurs with other acidic phospholipids. This observation of electrogenesis without hydrolysis is a surface phenomenon probably due to the alignment of ATP on the phospholipid by ion association at its interface with the water phase. The finding constitutes a precaution for interpreting studies of membrane Na-K-ATPase or for its incorporation into an artificial membrane. The substances necessary for electrogenesis are present at the mitochondrial membrane, and the particular orientation of the ATP on the phospholipids in vitro suggests a role for this ion association in the function of Na-K-ATPase.

The relationship between two known actions of prednisolone-3, 20-bisguanylhydrazone (PBGH); Na+, K+-ATPase inhibition and positive inotropic effects, was investigated. In electrically driven left atrial preparations of guinea pig heart, the positive inotropic action of PBGH was not affected by beta-adrenergic or histamine antagonists. Pretreatment of animals with reserpine also failed to influence the positive inotropic action of PBGH. Inotropic concentrations of PBGH inhibited Na+, K+-ATPase and the ATP-dependent binding of (3/)-ouabain to Na+, K+- ATPase preparations in vitro. Additionally, ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake, an estimate of sodium pump activity was inhibited when sodium-loaded ventricular slices were obtained from Langendorff preparations at the peak inotropic response to PBGH. Guinea pig heart was highly sensitive to PBGH to the positive inotropic action, the inhibition of Na+, K+ -ATPase and (3H)-ouabain binding, whereas rat, rabbit and dog heart were markedly less sensitive. These findings suggest that the mechanism of the positive inotropic action of PBGH resembles that of ouabain and probably involves Na+, K+ -ATPase inhibition, although the mode of interaction of these steroids with Na+, K+ -ATPase may be different.

A purified sodium and potassium dependent adenosinetriphosphatase isolated from cat heart was not stimulated by any concentration of ouabain that produced positive inotropy of cat papilliary muscle. Only inhibition of enzyme activity was observed. Concentrations of ouabain used ranged from 3.3 x 10(-10) molar to 5 x 10(-7) molar and produced an increased force of contraction without any evidence of toxicity. The results are inconsistent with a concept that stimulation of sodium pump activity is associated with positive inotropy.

A method is described for the extraction of microsomal ouabain-sensitive (a- + K+)-activated ATPase from separated frog skin epithelium. The method yields a microsomal fraction containing (Na+ K+)-stimulated activity in the range of 30- 40 nmol - mg -1 - min -1 at 26 degrees C. This portion which is also ouabain sensitive, is about half of the total activity in media containing Mg2+, Na+ and K+. These preparations also contain Mg2+-dependent or Ca2+-dependent activities which are not additive and which are not significantly affected by ouabain, Na+, K+ or Li+. The activations of the ouabain-sensitive ATPase activity by Mg2+, Na+, and K+ are similar to those described in other tissues. It is found that Li+ does not substitute for Na+ as an activator but in high concentrations does produce partial activation in the presence of Na+ with no K+. These results are pertinent to the reported observations of ouabain-sensitive Li+ flux across frog skin. It is concluded that this flux is not apparently due to a direct activating effect of Li+ on the sodium pump.

1. Fluorescence measurements have shown that formycin triphosphate (FTP) or formycin diphosphate (FDP) bound to (Na+ + K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) in Na+-containing media can be displaced by the following ions (listed in order of effectiveness): Tl+, K+, Rb+, NH4+, Cs+. 2. The differences between the nucleotide affinities displayed by the enzyme in predominantly Na+ and predominantly K+ media in the absence of phosphorylation, are thought to reflect changes in enzyme conformation. These changes can therefore be monitored by observing the changes in fluorescence that accompany net binding or net release of formycin nucleotides. 3. The transition from a K+-bound form (E2-(K)) to an Na+-bound form (E1-Na) is remarkably slow at low nucleotide concentrations, but is accelerated if the nucleotide concentration is increased. This suggests that the binding of nucleotide to a low-affinity site on E2-(K) accelerates its conversion to E1-Na; it supports the hypothesis that during the normal working of the pump, ATP, acting at a low affinity site, accelerates the conversion of dephosphoenzyme, newly formed by K+-catalysed hydrolysis of E2P, to a form in which it can be phosphorylated in the presence of Na+. 4. The rate of the reverse transformation, E1-Na to E2-(K), varies roughly linearly with the K+ concentration up to the highest concentration at which the rate can be measured (15 mM). Since much lower concentrations of K+ are sufficient to displace the equilibrium to the K-form, we suggest that the sequence of events is: (i) combination of K+ with low affinity (probably internal) binding sites, followed by (ii) spontaneous conversion of the enzyme to a form, E2-(K), containing occluded K+. 5. Mg2+ or oligomycin slows the rate of conversion of E1-Na to E2-(K) but does not significantly affect the rate of conversion of E2-(K) to E1-Na. 6. In the light of these and previous findings, we propose a model for the sodium pump in which conformational changes alternate with trans-phosphorylations, and the inward and outward fluxes of both Na+ and K+ each involve the transfer of a phosphoryl group as well as a change in conformation between E1 and E2 forms of the enzyme or phosphoenzyme.

It has recently been demonstrated that both Tl+ and Li+ produce concentration- and time-dependent positive inotropic effects in guinea-pig atrial preparations although Tl+ inhibits and Li+ stimulates isolated Na+,K+-ATPase in vitro. In order to elucidate the mechanism of the positive inotropic actions of these cations, the effects of Tl+ and Li+ on sodium pump activity were studied. Active 86Rb uptake in guinea-pig ventricular slices, an estimate of sodium pump activity, was highly sensitive to the inhibitory effect of the cardiac glycosides. Preincubation of slices with Tl+ caused a dose- and time-dependent inhibition of active 86Rb uptake. Similar concentration- and time-dependent inhibition of active 86Rb uptake was observed when Na+ in a Krebs-Henseleit solution was partially replaced with Li+. Lithium, however, stimulated a partially purified Na+,K+-ATPase in vitro. During heart slice incubation, Tl+ and Li+ accumulated in a time-dependent manner. This accumulation was not readily reversible when slices were transferred into Tl+- or Li+-free solutions. It appears that the inhibition of sodium pump activity is related to the positive inotropic action of these cations.

Effects of vanadate on ouabain binding and inhibition of sodium and potassium adenosine triphosphatase (Na+ + K+)-ATPase) were investigated under various ionic conditions. 1. Vanadate facilitated ouabain binding to (Na+ + K+)-ATPase in the presence of Mg2+ and this facilitation was partially reversed by catechol. 2. Vanadate antagonized the ability of high concentrations of NaCl to inhibit ouabain binding in the presence of magnesium. 3. Ouabain binding to the vanadate-enzyme complex, formed from magnesium and vanadate, was more sensitive to depression by potassium than that to the phosphoenzyme formed from magnesium and inorganic phosphate. 4. Preincubation of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase with vanadate in the presence of magnesium initially formed a potassium-insensitive complex as shown by a rapid initial rate of ouabain binding. However, within 5 min potassium overcame the vanadate potentiation of ouabain binding regardless of the order in which it was added to the reaction mixture. 5. Under conditions of enzyme turnover, vanadate failed to antagonize the inhibitory power of ouabain despite the presence of a high concentration of potassium. This suggests a possible relationship between the sensitivity of the sodium pump in various tissues to the cardiac glycosides and intracellular vanadate concentrations.

Na+/K+-ATPase localization in the rectal wall of larval Aeshna cyanea (Insecta, Odonata) was studied with histochemical precipitation techniques and 3H-ouabain autoradiography in conjunction with biochemical measurements of enzyme activities and radiospectrometry of 3H-ouabain binding, respectively. The NPP-strontium and ATP-lead methods led to complete inhibition of Na+/K+-ATPase in this organ and hence to unreliable histochemical results. The 3H-ouabain binding technique revealed sodium pump sites at the basolateral plasma membranes of the absorptive rectal chloride epithelia.
