Human skin fibroblasts, grown to confluency in the presence of 32P for random labelling of the phospholipids, showed upon 24 h incubation in the presence of either 8 mM L-serine or 4 mM ethanolamine an increased content of phosphatidylserine (150% of control cells) or phosphatidylethanolamine (116% of control cells), respectively. Concomitantly the phosphatidylcholine correspondingly decreased. Upon cell harvesting and gentle enzyme preparation the base-treated cells demonstrated a significantly higher unstimulated, fluoride- and thyrotropin-stimulated activity of adenylate cyclase. The activities of total ATPase, ouabain-sensitive ATPase, 5'-nucleotidase and gamma-glutamyltransferase remained unaltered. When subjecting enzyme preparations from fibroblasts to ultrasonication the activity of adenylate cyclase decreased progressively with energy applied, whereas the activities of the other enzymes were unaltered ((K+ + Na+)-ATPase, 5'-nucleotidase) or even increased (Mg2+-ATPase, gamma-glutamyltransferase). The results have a bearing upon the regulatory function of the phospholipid microenvironment of membrane-bound enzymes.

Cardiomyopathic hamsters (UM-X7.1) show clinical signs of congestive heart failure and an abnormal EKG pattern. The sarcolemmal fraction obtained from the failing hearts at advanced stages of myopathy exhibited no change in the basal adenylate cyclase activity; however, the activity of this enzyme in the presence of catecholamines or NaF was lower in the failing heart sarcolemma than that in the control. The activities of Ca2+-ATPase, Mg2+-ATPase, and Na+-K+-ATPase in the failing heart sarcolemma were also less than the control values. These results suggest an association of membrane defect with heart failure.

The adenylate cyclase activity from a rat liver plasma membrane preparation was inhibited by low concentrations (1-10 muM) of the mercurial diuretic mersalyl. Complete inhibition was obtained with 0.1 mM mersalyl. Similar effects were observed whether the adenylate cyclase preparation was assayed in the presence of 10 muM GTP, 0.1 muM glucagon, 10 mM NaF or without any addition. The effect of mersalyl was not due to inhibition of the regenerating system present in the incubation medium, since the effect of mersalyl was preserved and even enhanced in its absence. The inhibition brought about by mersalyl was due to both a decrease of the maximal velocity of the reaction and of the affinity of the enzyme for the substrate. It was immediate, and irreversible spontaneously, but it was reversed by the simultaneous additions of 2-mercaptoethanol, in a dose-dependent fashion. Other -SH reagents were found to have an effect equal to, or lower than, that of mersalyl. Mersalyl had no effect upon Mg2+-ATPase, although it inhibited the (Na+-K+) activated ATPase. Since mersalyl is known to be a 'non-penetrant' reagent, it is postulated that a catalytically important, mercurial-sensitive, part of adenylate cyclase is at the surface of the plasma membrane. This view is supported by the following facts: (a) mersalyl acted with a similar dose-response curve upon an intact as well as a detergent-dispersed cyclase preparation while no effect was observed upon a solubilized Mg2+-ATPase preparation; (b) a covalent p-chloromercuribenzoate-Sephadex preparation (but not its supernatant) inhibited the cyclase from intact membranes. It is proposed that mercurial derivatives, by their relative specificity of action (no effect on Mg2+-ATPase), can serve as useful probes in the elucidation of the multicomponent structure of the cyclase system.

Different antiarrhythmic agents such as quinidine, procaine amide, and lodocaine at 1 mM concentrations were found to depress the ability of an isolated perfused rat heart to generate contractile force. Quinidine, but not procaine amide or lidocaine, decreased calcium uptake by both mitochondrial and microsomal fractions at different concentrations of calcium. The mitochondrial phosphorylation rate, respiratory control index, and state 3 oxygen consumption, but not ADP:O ratio and state 4 oxygen consumption, were depressed by only quinidine. None of these agents had any effect on myofibrillar Mg2+-ATPase or Ca2+-stimulated ATPase activities. On the other hand, sarcolemmal Mg2+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase activities, but not Na+-K+-ATPase activity, were increased by all these drugs. The sarcolemmal adenylate cyclase (EC 4.6.1.1) activity was decreased by quinidine only. These results suggest some similarities and differences in the sites of action of quinidine, procaine amide, and lidocaine within the myocardium.

1. The activities of some membrane-bound enzymes such as adenylate cyclase, Na+ + K+-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase (Na+ + K+-ATPase), Ca2+-stimulated ATPase and Mg2+-stimulated ATPase were examined in heart sarcolemmal fractions from control and cardiomyopathic hamsters at different stages of heart failure. 2. The basal adenylate cyclase activity in sarcolemma from cardiomyopathic animals with early, moderate and late stages of heart failure was not different from the control values whereas the sodium fluoride- and catecholamine-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities were depressed in cardiomyopathic sarcolemma at moderate and late stages. 3. The sarcolemmal Na+ + K+-ATPase activity was decreased and the non-specific phosphatase activity was increased at early, moderate and late stages of heart failure. 4. The sarcolemmal Ca2+-ATPase activity was decreased at moderate and late stages whereas the Mg2+-ATPase activity was decreased at the late stages of heart failure only. 5. A marked decrease was found in calcium binding by heart sarcolemma from cardiomyopathic hamsters at late stages of failure. 6. These results suggest that dramatic sarcolemmal changes are associated with heart failure, and support the view that membrane abnormalities play a crucial role in the development of myocardial dysfunction, cyclase, calcium binding, heart failure, heart membranes, sarcolemmal enzymes.

The regulation of adrenergic receptors in rat heart was measured in rats made hyperthyroid by injection with thyroxine and made hypothyroid by addition of propylthiouracil to the drinking water. Hyperthyroid rats display cardiac hypertrophy and a decrease in epididymal fat pad weight. The maximal beta-receptor level of ventricular membranes, as determined by (-)-[3H]dihydroalprenolol binding, was increased 60% by thyroxine treatment and decreased about 30% by propylthiouracil treatment. The affinity of the beta receptor was unchanged after thyroxine or propylthiouracil treatment. The maximal activity of the isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase (EC 4.6.1.1) varied with thyroid state in a manner parallel to the increase in beta-adrenergic binding sites. Thyroxine treatment also increases by 2-fold the beta receptors in isolated rat fat cells. Propylthiouracil treatment lowered the level of alpha receptors in heart by 30% as measured by [3H]dihydroergocryptine binding, but increased the affinity about 2.5-fold. The highest level of alpha receptors was seen in control hearts. These studies indicate that thyroxine may control the turnover of beta-adrenergic receptors in heart and fat cells and regulate physiological responses in these tissues via a hormone-hormone interplay system. Thyroxine treatment reduced the activity of the membrane-bound Mg2+-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) and 5'-mononucleotidase (EC 3.1.3.5) but appears to increase the activity of the (Na+ + K+)ATPase (EC 3.6.1.4).

Plasma membranes were isolated from rat liver mainly under isotonic conditions. As marker enzymes for the plasma membrane, 5'-nucleotidase and (Na+ + K+)-ATPase were used. The yield of plasma membrane was 0.6-0.9 mg protein per g wet weight of liver. The recovery of 5'-nucleotidase and (Na+ +K+)-ATPase activity was 18 and 48% of the total activity of the whole-liver homogenate, respectively. Judged from the activity of glucose-6-phosphatase and succinate dehydrogenase in the plasma membrane, and from the electron microscopic observation of it, the contamination by microsomes and mitochondria was very low. A further homogenization of the plasma membrane yielded two fractions, the light and heavy fractions, in a discontinuous sucrose gradient centrifugation. The light fraction showed higher specific activities of 5'-nucleotidase, alkaline phosphatase, (Na+ +K+)-ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase, whereas the heavy one showed a higher specific activity of adenylate cyclase. Ligation of the bile duct for 48 h decreased the specific activities of (Na2+ +K+)-ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase in the light fraction, whereas it had no significant influence on the activities of these enzymes in the heavy fraction. The specific activity of alkaline phosphate was elevated in both fractions by the obstruction of the bile flow. Electron microscopy on sections of the plasma membrane subfractions showed that the light fraction consisted of vesicles of various sizes and that the heavy fractions contained membrane sheets and paired membrane strips connected by junctional complexes, as well as vesicles. The origin of these two fractions is discussed and it is suggested that the light fraction was derived from the bile front of the liver cell surface and the heavy one contained the blood front and the lateral surface of it.

The interfascicular oligodendroglia of the rat striatum nucleus is studied in control animals and under experimentally induced brain edemas. Enzyme histochemical studies were performed. Normal oligodendrocytes show two different enzymatic distributions. While Mg2+-ATPase, TPPase, TPPase, adenylate cyclase and SDH are shown to be situated at the cell bodies and some proximal processes, 5'-nucleotidase reaction is seen at the cell fine distal processes. In spite of its trong activity in oligodendroglial endings the latter enzyme is not seen at the myelin sheath. This sheath and the interfascicular cells being intimately related, 5'-nucleotidase appears to be important not only during myelination, as almost all authors emphasize, but also in the adult myelin metabolism. Experimental brain edema shows some changes in the interfasicular oligodendroglia enzymatic activites for 5'-nucleotidase, Mg2+-ATPase and adenylate cyclase. A progressive disappearance of the former enzyme is observed. These features and those of derived from local ionic alterations may be concerned with the special susceptibility of white matter for some types of brain swellings.

1. We performed an enzymatic characterization of two different fractionation procedures of ventricles from rat hearts. The enzymatic assays covered succinic dehydrogenase as a marker for inner mitochondrial membranes, monoamine oxidase as a marker for outer mitochondrial membranes, NADPH-cytochrome c reductase and RNA as endoplasmatic reticular markers, acid phosphatase as a lysosomal marker, and lactic dehydrogenase as a marker for the "soluble" compartment; DNA was estimated for nuclear contamination. 2. The plasma membrane markers 5'-nucleotidase, Ca2+-ATPase, Mg2+-ATPase, Na+-K+-ATPase, and adenylate cyclase were determined. 3. The roughly prepared membrane fractions showed increased yields of the membrane markers; the number of beta receptors, determined with (-)-[3H] dihydroalprenolol and DL-propranolol, amounted to 68 +/- 6 fmol/mg protein (KD = 3390 +/- 450 pmol, Hill coefficient = 1.5). 4. The membrane fraction prepared with a linear sucrose gradient showed an increased inner mitochondrial membrane marker; presumably the outer mitochondrial membrane was stripped off. The beta-receptor number was 39 +/- 3 fmol/mg protein (KD = 6250 +/- 300 pmol; Hill coefficient = 1.2).

Male ICR mice, young (25-days old), mature (3-months old), and old (22 months), were injected with morphine sulfate (10 mg/kg, s.c.) or were implanted with morphine pellets (75 mg). Controls received saline injections or placebo pellets. One hour after injections and 72 h after pellet implantations, the mice were decapitated and striatal regions were removed for the following analyses: calmodulin (CaM) levels via radioimmunoassay and activities of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases, adenylate and guanylate cyclases, and Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase. Acute morphine treatment produced the following: (1) increases in calmodulin levels in the young and old mice while having no effect on mature levels; (2) increases in activities of guanylate cyclase of mature mice while decreasing those of the old mice; (3) no effects on activity of adenylate cyclase; (4) decreased activity of cyclic AMP-phosphodiesterase in young mice only; (5) decreased activity of Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase in the old mice only. The only changes found in striata from morphine-tolerant mice when compared with age-matched controls were elevations in cyclic GMP-phosphodiesterase activities in all three age groups. Differences in control values of the three age groups were as follows: CaM levels, mature greater than old greater than young; Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase activity, old greater than mature-young. The results indicate age-induced changes in cellular regulation and biochemical responses to morphine.
