Na+-K+-ATPase activity and [3H]ouabain binding were studied in cardiac ventricles of single wrapped kidney and DOCA-NaCl hypertensive rats. It was found that the total Na+-K+-ATPase activity decreased in the DOCA-NaCl and kidney wrapped hypertensive rats. The decrease of enzyme activity in DOCA-NaCl hypertensive rats was due to extracellular fluid expansion induced by NaCl loading, as DOCA itself had no effect on the enzyme. All these alterations were specific for Na+-K+-ATPase, since Mg2+-ATPase and 5'-nucleotidase activities were unaffected. Binding studies with [3H]ouabain showed that the decrease in Na+-K+-ATPase activity was due to a reduction in the number of binding sites for ouabain rather than to a change of binding affinity. The reduced myocardial Na+-K+-ATPase activity observed in these two types of low renin hypertension, coupled with the observation of reduced vascular Na+ pump activity by others, suggests a common underlying defect in the cardiovascular Na+-K+ transport system of these hypertensive rats.

Alkaline phosphatase, sucrase, Na+,K+-ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase specific activities of crude membrane fractions, prepared from duodenal, jejunal, ileal and colonic mucosa, have been estimated in three types of hypertensive rats: the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR), the DOCA-saline treated rat and the renovascular rat (Goldblatt one-kidney, one-clip rat; 1K-1C). Alkaline phosphatase and sucrase specific activities have been measured in purified jejunal brush-border membranes. When compared with its normotensive age-matched control (WKY rat), the SHR has a lower activity of alkaline phosphatase in duodenal and jejunal crude membrane fractions, whereas a higher activity in colonic Na+,K+-ATPase is recorded. In purified jejunal brush-border membranes, lower alkaline phosphatase activity and higher sucrase activity were found. These differences occur in the young prehypertensive SHR as well as in the adult animal. In the DOCA-treated rat, the only significant alteration in crude membrane fractions is a decreased Mg2+-ATPase activity at all regions of intestinal mucosa. In purified jejunal brush-border membranes both alkaline phosphatase and sucrase activities are increased at 4 or 7 weeks but especially at 13 weeks of hypertension. In the 1K-1C rat, no significant modification appears in crude membrane fractions or in purified jejunal brush-border membranes, but a decrease in alkaline phosphatase and in sucrase activities is probable after 13 weeks of hypertension. Since alterations of the intestinal enzymes are different in the three types of hypertensive rats it is concluded that the changes are not secondary to the hypertension condition. In the SHR, these alterations are present in the young prehypertensive animal.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
