Plasma membranes were isolated from lactating bovine mammary gland. Two crude membrane fractions; medium/d 1.033 (light membrane) and 1.033/1.053 interfaces (heavy membrane), were obtained by Ficoll density gradient centrifugation of osmotically washed microsomal fraction. Two crude membranes were further purified separately by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. Both light and heavy membranes banded at a sucrose density of 1.14. The purified membranes appeared as heterogeneous smooth membrane vesicles on electron microscopy. The contaminating suborganelles were not detected. The yield of the purified membranes relative to the homogenate was 1.2%. The degree of purity of the membranes was shown by a great increase in the specific activity of 5'-nucleotidase over the homogenate of 20-fold for light membrane and of 16-fold for heavy membrane. The relative activities of Mg2+-ATPase, (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, phosphodiesterase I, alkaline phosphatase and xanthine oxidase were also high (12-18-times) and nearly 20% of these enzymes was recovered. The activity of marker enzyme for mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus was very low, while that of acid phosphatase for lysosome was relatively high (5-times). DNA and RNA contents were very low. The major polypeptides rich in other suborganelles were not detected profoundly in the membrane fraction and the polypeptide composition in both light and heavy membranes were similar upon SDS-polyacrylamide gel electorphoresis.

Hinesol, a major component of the crude drug "So-jutsu" (Atractylodis Lanceae Rhizoma), strongly inhibited H+,K+-ATPase activity with a IC50 value of 5.8x10(-5) M. It also inhibited Na+,K+-ATPase, Mg2+-ATPase, Ca2+-ATPase, and H+-ATPase activities, although the inhibition rate was lower. No effects on alkaline or acid phosphatase activities were observed. The mechanism by which hinesol inhibited H+,K+-ATPase activity was studied in detail. The inhibition was uncompetitive with respect to ATP, and it increased as the Mg2+ concentration was raised, whereas it was not affected by the K+ concentration. The activity of K+-dependent p-nitrophenyl phosphatase (K+-pNPPase), a partial reaction of H+,K+-ATPase, was inhibited by hinesol noncompetitively with respect to pNPP (IC50 value of 1.6x10(-4) M), and competitively with respect to K+, whereas it was not affected by the Mg2+ concentration. These results suggest that hinesol is a relatively specific inhibitor of H+,K+-ATPase. It appears that hinesol reacts with enzyme in the E1 state in the presence of ATP and Mg2+ and forms the complex hinesol-H+ E1-ATP or hinesol x E1-P, blocking the conformational change to the E2 state. Furthermore, hinesol enhanced the inhibitory effect of omeprazole on H+,K+-ATPase, and the inhibitory site of hinesol was different from that of omeprazole. The effect of So-jutsu as an anti-gastric ulcer agent may be ascribed to the inhibitory effect of hinesol on H+,K+-ATPase activity.

Most researches on insect enzymes concern carbohydrate and nitrogenous exchange. Data on ATPase activity for larval material of drone brood are absent in the available literature. The drone brood is one of the least investigated apiproducts. Allowing for the important role of ATPase in the vital functions of the insect cells our work was aimed at the study of ATPase of the drone blood activity and that of alkaline and acid phosphatases. When studying liophylised preparations of the drone brood homogenate we have found out high activity of Mg2+, Na+, K+-, Ca2+- and Mg2+-ATPase and of alkaline and acid phosphatase, that is the possible explanation of the high-intensity power and plastic processes proceeding during growth and development of larvae.

Altered membrane integrity has been suggested as a major factor in the development of cellular injury during myocardial necrosis. The present study was designed to investigate the effect of diosgenin on lysosomal hydrolases, membrane-bound enzymes, and electrolytes during isoproterenol (ISO)-induced myocardial necrosis in rats. Animals were pretreated with DIOS (80 mg/kg) for a period of 35 days. Myocardial infarction was experimentally induced with ISO (85 mg/kg) twice at 24 h interval. Experimental myocardial infarction was evidenced with marked elevation of creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) in serum with concomitant increase in lipid peroxidation (plasma thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and hydroperoxides (HP)). Activity of lysosomal hydrolases (beta-glucuronidase, beta-N-acetyl glucosaminidase, beta-D-galactosidase, cathepsin D, and acid phosphatase) was found to be increased in serum and heart tissue of ISO-alone treated animals. DIOS (80 mg/kg) pretreated groups showed significant decrease in CK-MB, lipid peroxidation, and lysosomal hydrolases activity. The membrane-bound enzymes such as Ca2+-ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase activity was increased and Na+/K+-ATPase activity was decreased in the heart tissues of ISO-alone treated animals. These enzyme alterations lead to the change in the electrolytes content such as sodium, potassium, and calcium in the heart tissue. However, DIOS (80 mg/kg) pretreatment reversed the membrane-bound enzymes activity and thereby maintained the normal electrolyte concentration. These results suggest the protective action of diosgenin in ISO-induced myocardial infarction. The salubrious effect observed in this study might be due to the antioxidant and membrane stabilizing potential of diosgenin.
