The effect of thyroid state on the activity of myosin adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) was examined in the rat and the rabbit. Cardiac myosin from thyroxine-treated rabbits showed enzymatic properties characterized by high Ca2plus-activated ATPase activity, low activation energy, lower rate of inactivation at alkaline pH, and no activation by N-ethylmaleimide compared with the same properties in the normal rabbit; thyroidectomy did not affect the enzymatic properties of rabbit cardiac myosin. These findings suggest a difference in the myosin molecule at or near the active site, involving some sulfhydryl groups, between hyperthyroid and euthyroid rabbits. However, rat cardiac myosin showed a pattern of activity in the euthyroid state similar to that of the hyperthyroid rabbit and changed to the euthyroid type after thyroidectomy. These changes were specific for cardiac myosin, since no change was observed in skeletal myosin. It is unlikely that there are major differences in the myosin molecule associated with the two types of activity, since similar proportion and amino acid composition of the subunits of cardiac myosin were observed in the different thyroid states. Thus, we concluded that the administration of thyroxine to the rabbit stimulates the synthesis of new cardiac myosin with altered enzymatic properties and that synthesis of this type of cardiac myosin is maintained by the normal level of thyroid hormone in the rat.

The relationship between bile salt-independent canalicular flow and ATPase activity in liver plasma membranes (LPM) enriched in bile canaliculi, was studied in control, hyperthyroid, and hypothyroid rats. Canalicular bile production was significantly increased in hyperthyroid rats (3.19 +/- 0.23 mul/min per g liver) compared to controls (2.27 +/- 0.24 mul/min per g liver), while it diminished in hypothyroid animals (1.58 +/- 0.17 mul/min per g liver). Although bile salt excretion was also increased in hyperthyroid animals (62.4 +/- 13.3 vs. 41.2 +/- 8.4 nmol/min per g liver), the stimulation in canalicular secretion was primarily related to enhancement of the bile salt-independent fraction of flow (2.47 mul/min per g liver in hyperthyroid rats vs. 1.67 mul/min per g liver in controls). LPM Na+, K+-ATPase activity doubled in hyperthyroid animals (21.5 +/- 5.8 vs. 10.7 +/- 3.1 mumol Pi/mg protein per h) while Mg++-ATPase activity remained unchanged and 5'-nucleotidase activity increased to a small but significant extent. In hypothyroid rats, bile salt excretion remained unchanged from control values so that the reduced secretion was entirely secondary to an inhibition of bile salt-independent secretion (1.19 mul/min per g liver). Na+, K+-ATPase activity in the LPMs from hypothyroid animals decreased by nearly 50% (5.4 +/- 1.6 mumol Pi/mg protein per h), although comparable reductions in the specific activity of Mg++-ATPase and 5'-nucleotidase were also observed. Administration of L-thyroxine to hypothyroid animals restored both bile salt-independent canalicular secretion and membrane enzymes to control values within 2 and 4 days, respectively. Sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis demonstrated no significant changes in LPM protein fractions from any of the treatment groups. These studies indicate that thyroid hormone has a parallel effect on bile salt-independent canalicular secretion and LPM Na+, K+-ATPase activity, supporting the hypothesis that Na+ transport and Na+, K+-ATPase may be determinants of bile salt-independent canalicular flow.

The effects of thyroid hormone on guinea pig myocardial NaK-ATPase activity, transmembrane monovalent cation active transport, and cardiac glycoside binding were were examined. NaK-ATPase activities of left atrial and left ventricular homogenates of control and triiodothyronine (T3)-treated animals were determined, and compared to activities of skeletal muscle and liver. T3 administration was associated with a significant increase of 18% in left atrial and left ventricular NaK-ATPase specific activities. This increment was less than that noted in skeletal muscle (+42%) and liver (+30%). To determine if enhanced NaK-ATPase activity was accompanied by increased monovalent cation active transport, in vitro 86Rb+ uptake by left atrial strips and hemidiaphragms was measured. Transition from the euthyroid to the hyperthyroid state resulted in a 68% increase in active 86Rb+ uptake by left atrium, and a 62% increase in active uptake by diaphragm. Passive 86Rb+ uptake was not affected in either tissue. Ouabain binding by atrial and ventricular homogenates of T3-treated animals was increased by 19 and 17%, respectively, compared to controls, in close agreement with thyroid-induced increments in NaK-ATPase activiey. Taken together, these results are consistent with enhanced myocardial NaK-ATPase activity and monovalent cation activt transport due to an increase in the number of functional enzyme complexes.

Thyroid hormone (T3) increased Na+ dependent respiration accompanied by an increase in NaK-ATPase activity. Administration of T3 increased intracellular K+ concentration and Na/K ratio in thyroidectomized rats, and the Na+ efflux rate constant incubated in oxygenized Na+, K+-Ringers in euthyroid rats. However, the magnitude of the changes in intracellular K+ concentration was modest or invisible in comparison to the changes in QO2(t) and NaK-ATPase activity. The Na+ and K+ efflux rate constants in K+-free +ouabain Ringers were increased by T3 in both thyroidectomized and euthyroid rats. Thus, thyroid hormone stimulates not only Na pump but also the permeability of cell membrane to Na+ and K+. The both effects might contribute to the thyroid thermogenesis.

HgC12-induced renal tubular lesions in the rat present histochemically with a transitory decrease of alkaline phosphatase, adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase), and leucine-aminopeptidase activity. The toxic alterations of enzyme activity were more pronounced in the pars recta of the proximal tubule and in the loop of Henle, as compared with the tubulus contortus I. L-thyroxine treatment leads to an accelerated reversal of that enzymatic defect, followinga characteristic pattern, and to a differentiating increase of acid phosphatase and ATPase activity in certain parts of the normal renal tubule. The observations are discussed with reference to the specific mode of action of sublimate and l-thyroxine upon the tubular enzymes and to the well-known metabolic and functional influences of thyroid hormone on the kidney.

Since phenobarbital administration produces a profound increase in bile flow without changing bile acid secretion, we examined whether this drug increases the activity of hepatic sodium-potassium-activated ATPase [Na+-K+)-ATPase], the postulated regulating enzyme in the secretion of bile salt independent bile flow. After freeze-thawing to increase substrate accessibility, (Na+-K+) ATPase activity was determined by ouabain inhibition of total ATPase activity. Its activity was highest in isolated liver surface membrane fractions enriched in bile canalicult. Phenobarbital administration significatly increased (Na+-K+)-ATPase activity in both liver surface membrane fractions as well as liver homogenates. This enhanced activity is apparently selective for other membrane phosphatases and the enzyme activity in other tissues is either unaltered or decreased. Kinetic analysis of (Ka+-K+)-ATPase indicates that phenobarbital treatment increased maximum velocity and half-maximum activation constant was unchanged, consistent with activation of latent molecules or an increased number of enzyme molecules. The latter process seems more likely because cycloheximide prevented phenobarbital induction and activators were not demonstrated in vitro. Examination of the full time course of phenobarbital induction to determine whether phenobarbital increased synthesis or decreased degradation was consistent with increased synthesis since the apparent degradation rates were similar with or without phenobarbital treatment. The apparent half-life for (Na+-K+)-ATPase was estimated to be approximately 2.5 days, consistent with liver surface membrane protein turnover. The correlation of changes in bile flow with (Na+-K+)-ATPase was examined under several experimental situations. Phenobarbital caused a parallel increase in each during the 1st 2 days of greatment: thereafter other factors become rate limiting for flow, since enzyme activity doesn't reach a new steady state until 4-days. Consistent with increased sodium-potassium exchange, bile sodium was unchanged while potasium concentrations were significantly reduced. Changes in both bile flow and (Na+-K+)-ATPase induced by phenobarbital are independent of thyroid hormone. These studies support the postulate that (Na+-K+)-ATPase is an important factor in regulation of bile flow. In addition, phenobarbital enhancement of both bile flow and (Na+-K+)-ATPase is dependent upon de novo protein synthesis.

To assess the possible role of the Na+ pump in mediating physiological responses to thyroid hormone in the rat myocardium, we examined the effects of L-3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3) on the activities of the closely associated enzymes, Na+-K+-dependent adenosine triphosphatase (Na-K-ATPase) and K+-dependent p-nitrophenyl phosphatase (K-dep-pNPPase). In hypothyroid rats, administration of T3 (50 microng/100 g body wt) resulted in significant increases (greater than 50%) in Na-K-ATPase and K-dep-pNPPase activities in both crude homogenates and microsomal fractions of the rat ventricle. Significant effects on Na-K-ATPase activity were also attained with low doses (1 microng/100 g body wt) of T3. A method was developed for assaying K-dep-pNPPase activity in cardiac slices. With this technique, enhancement in K-dep-pNPPase activity of 89.2% was found in ventricle slices after treatment of hypothyroid rats with T3 (50 microng/100 g body wt), implying that augmentation of the capacity of the Na+ pump is achieved in vivo. The potent analogue, L-3,5-diiodo-3' isopropyl thyronine (isopropyl T2) had the same effects on cardiac growth and Na-K-ATPase as T3, in hypothyroid rats. In contrast, the relatively inactive isomer, L-3,3',5'-triiodothyronine (reverse T3) had no significant effect on the heart weight-to-body weight ratio or on ventricular Na-K-ATPase activity.

We have studied the effect of 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3) on the respiration of adult rat hepatocytes in primary monolayer culture prepared from hypothyroid rat liver. After addition of T3 to the culture medium at a concentration of 2 x 10(-7) M, oxygen consumption of the cultured cells increased detectably at 24 h and was maximal at 72--96 h, relative to control cultures (38.0 +/- 1.8 vs. 25.0 +/- 1.5 microliter/h.mg protein). The thyroid-responsive enzymes, Na+ + K+-activated adenosine triphosphatase (NaK-ATPase) and alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (GPD), each exhibited increased activity in response to T3, in parallel with the change in oxygen consumption, whereas the activity of Mg-dependent ATPase was unaffected. These responses to T3 were dose dependent over similar concentration ranges, the half-maximal response for each occurring at ca 8 x 10(-10) M. In thyroid-treated cells, the observed increase in respiration was almost completely (90%) inhibited after addition of ouabain (10(-3) M) to the culture medium. It was found also that a 4-h exposure of the cultured hepatocytes to T3 was sufficient to elicit a significant thermogenic response, measured at a time (48 h later) when T3 was no longer present in the medium. The response to T3 occurred in fully defined culture medium and was independent of the presence or absence of hypothyroid rat serum, corticosterone, or insulin, and cellular ATP was unaffected by T3 in concentrations up to 2 x 10(-7) M. The findings document that adult rat hepatocytes in primary monolayer culture respond directly to thyroid hormone; the increases in respiration and NaK-ATPase activity elicited by T3 were cotemporal and apparently coordinate.

The possible involvement of Na+,K+-ATPase in the etiology of obesity in the obese (ob/ob) mouse was explored. The number of Na+,K+-ATPase enzyme units in skeletal muscle, liver, and kidneys from 4- and 8-wk-old obese and lean mice was estimated from saturable [3H]ouabain binding to particulate fractions. Neither phenotype nor age altered the Kd value for ouabain binding in these three tissue preparations. The total number of [3H]ouabain binding sites in hindlimb muscles was 35--55% lower in 4- and 8-wk-old obese mice than in their lean counterparts. However, the total number of [3H]ouabain binding sites in liver and kidneys of obese mice was similar to values observed in their lean counterparts. Because it has been suggested that ob/ob mice are hypothyroid, we investigated the response of Na+,K+-ATPase in these mice to thyroid hormone treatment (approximately 5 microgram thyroxine/day for 2 wk). The number of [3H]ouabain binding sites in the three tissues increased in both obese and lean mice injected with this relatively large dose of thyroxine, but the obese mice were 2--3 times more responsive than lean mice.

Liver plasma membrane (LPM) NaK-ATPase activity, LPM fluidity, and bile acid-independent flow (BAIF) were studied in rats pretreated with one of five experimental agents. Compared with controls, BAIF was increased 24.6% by thyroid hormone and 34.4% by phenobarbital, decreased by ethinyl estradiol, but unchanged by propylene glycol and cortisone acetate. Parallel to the observed changes in BAIF, NaK-ATPase activity also was increased by thyroid hormone (40.8%) and decreased by ethinyl estradiol (26.2%). In contrast, NaK-ATPase activity failed to increase after phenobarbital but did increase 36% after propylene glycol and 34.8% after cortisone acetate. Thus BAIF and NaK-ATPase activity did not always change in parallel. The NaK-ATPase K(m) for ATP was not affected by any of these agents.LPM fluidity, measured by fluorescence polarization using the probe 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene, was found to be increased by propylene glycol, thyroid hormone, and cortisone acetate, decreased by ethinyl estradiol, and unaffected by phenobarbital. Thus in these cases, induced changes in LPM fluidity paralleled those in NaK-ATPase activity. In no case did Mg-ATPase or 5'-nucleotidase activities change in the same direction as NaK-ATPase, and the activity of neither of these enzymes correlated with LPM fluidity, thus indicating the selective nature of the changes in LPM enzyme activity caused by the agents. These findings indicate that LPM fluidity correlates with NaK-ATPase activity and may influence the activity of this enzyme. However, the nature of the role of LPM NaK-ATPase in bile secretion is uncertain and needs further study.
