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.

The effect of long-term ethanol feeding on the activity of (Na + K)-ATPase in cortex and outer medulla and fractional excretion of electrolytes in remnant kidney of adult rats after unilateral nephrectomy were studied. Wistar adult rats were fed 20% (v/v) aqueous ethanol solution as sole drinking fluid for 8-10 weeks. Right kidney was removed under ether anaesthesia. The animals were subjected to an acute NaCl loading by means of a continuous infusion given 2, 7 and 14 days after nephrectomy. Renal handling of electrolytes was estimated from fractional excretion of sodium and potassium. After the infusion the animals were killed and (Na + K)-ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase activities were measured in the cortex and outer medulla of the remnant kidney. Two days after nephrectomy both groups showed a gradual increase of renal (Na + K)-ATPase activity reaching 60 percent at day 14. Mg2+-ATPase activity did not change with respect to basal values. Compared to basal values the fractional excretion of sodium after nephrectomy, dropped in both groups but more significantly in the ethanol-fed rats than in the control group. Fractional excretion of potassium did not change in the control group after nephrectomy while the ethanol-fed group displayed a significative decrease at days 7 and 14. According to our results the rise in renal (Na + K)-ATPase activity is consistent with the renal sodium retention found in ethanol-fed rats.

Hexachlorocyclohexanes (HCCH) are chlorinated analogs of inositol; the alpha, beta, gamma, and delta isomers of HCCH have the stereochemical configurations of (+/-)-, scyllo-, muco-, and myo-inositol, respectively. To assess their potential as specific tools for the study of agonist-stimulated phosphoinositide metabolism, we examined the effects of these four HCCH isomers on phosphatidylinositol (PI) synthase (CDP-1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol:myo-inositol 3-phosphatidyltransferase), PI:inositol exchange enzyme, and several membrane-associated enzymes unrelated to inositol metabolism. In pancreas microsomes, in the presence of saturating myo-inositol, the alpha, beta, gamma, and delta isomers (4 mM) inhibited PI synthase activity by 9, 4, 22, and 69%, respectively. Half-maximal inhibition by delta-HCCH occurred at 0.25 mM. A similar pattern of HCCH inhibition was obtained using n-octylglucopyranoside-solubilized and partially purified PI synthase preparations. The inhibition by delta-HCCH was noncompetitive versus myo-inositol. The PI:inositol exchange enzyme in mouse pancreas microsomes was inhibited 90% by 1 mM delta-HCCH in the presence of 0.25% Triton X-100, but not in its absence; half-maximal inhibition occurred with 0.5 mM delta-HCCH. delta-HCCH (4 mM) also inhibited to varying extents the following enzymes: pancreas CDP-choline:1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol cholinephosphotransferase (75%), brain and erythrocyte (Na+,K+)-ATPase (87 and 70%), brain and erythrocyte Mg2+-ATPase (38 and -5%), brain 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol kinase (22%), and liver glucose 6-phosphatase (16%). gamma-HCCH (4 mM) inhibited these enzymes to a lesser extent, or not at all. The order of inhibition by HCCH stereoisomers was the same as the order of their saturation level in phospholipid vesicles (delta greater than gamma greater than alpha greater than beta). This suggests that the inhibitory action is due to insertion of the compounds either into hydrophobic domains of the enzymes or into annular lipid. The results indicate that the HCCHs are not selective inhibitors of inositol metabolism.

Despite multiple procedures used to isolate transverse tubule vesicles from rabbit skeletal muscle, few proteins have been identified and shown to be specific to transverse tubule vesicles. Markers for purified transverse tubules have included high affinity dihydropyridine binding, cholesterol content, Mg2+-ATPase activity, (Na+,K+)-ATPase activity, and [3H] ouabain binding. Despite these markers, few proteins from purified transverse tubules can be unequivocally identified using sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). In this report we have biochemically and immunologically identified rabbit albumin as a major component of purified transverse tubule membranes from rabbit skeletal muscle. Albumin composed between 5.1 and 9.8% (n = 4) of the total protein in purified transverse tubules based on scans of SDS-PAGE. Furthermore, albumin and other serum proteins are present in preparations of transverse tubules and triads but not in light sarcoplasmic reticulum. Extraction of triads with low concentrations of saponin or sodium dodecyl sulfate completely removes albumin without removing intrinsic membrane proteins. Our results suggest that albumin and other serum proteins are present in the lumen of preparations of transverse tubules and albumin may be used as a marker for the transverse tubules when analyzed on SDS gels.

1. The effects of 11 calcium antagonists on (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, Mg2+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase activities of rat cortical synaptosomes were studied. 2. All the calcium antagonists studied had inhibitory effects on ouabain-sensitive (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, Mg2+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase activities in synaptosomes at high concentrations (10 or 100 microM). 3. Calcium antagonists such as trifluoperazine, flunarizine and cinnarizine had inhibitory effects on Ca2+-ATPase activity at low concentrations (1-10 microM). 4. Trifluoperazine and La3+ had inhibitory effects on Mg2+-ATPase activity at low concentration (1 microM). 5. Our results suggest that most of the calcium antagonists studied have little effects on neuronal (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, Mg2+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase activities at therapeutic dose ranges (1 microM or lower).

The microsomal (H+,K+)-ATPase systems from dog and pig fundic mucosa were purified to homogeneity and partially characterized. The method involves sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) (0.033% w/v) extraction of the microsomal non-ATPase proteins under appropriate conditions followed by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. Two distinct membrane bands of low (buoyant density = 1.08 g/mL) and high (buoyant density = 1.114 g/mL) densities having distinct enzymatic and chemical composition were harvested. The low-density membrane was highly enriched in Mg2+- or Ca2+-stimulated ATPase and 5'-nucleotidase activities but totally devoid of (H+,K+)-ATPase and K+-p-nitrophenylphosphatase activities. The latter two activities were found exclusively in the high-density membrane. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed the high-density membranes to consist primarily of a major 100-kilodalton (kDa) protein and a minor 85-kDa glycoprotein, the former being the catalytic subunit of the (H+,K+)-ATPase. The amino acid composition of the pure dog (H+,K+)-ATPase revealed close similarities with that from pig. The N-terminal amino acid was identified to be lysine as the sole residue. Similar to the high-density membrane-associated pure (H+,K+)-ATPase, the low-density membranes containing high Mg2+-ATPase activity also contained a 100-kDa peptide and a 85-kDa glycopeptide in addition to numerous low molecular weight peptides. Also, similar to the pure (H+,K+)-ATPase, the Mg2+-ATPase-rich fraction produced an E approximately P unstable to hydroxylamine and partially (about 25%) sensitive to K+ but having a slow turnover. The levels of E approximately P produced by the pure (H+,K+)-ATPase- and Mg2+-ATPase-rich fractions were 1400 and 178 pmol/mg of protein, respectively.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Chemotactic stimulation of Dictyostelium discoideum induces an uptake of Ca2+ by the cells followed by a release of Ca2+. In this study we investigated the mechanism of Ca2+ release and found that it was inhibited by La3+, Cd2+ and azide. Ca2+ release occurred in the absence of external Na+, indicating that an Na+/Ca2+ exchange was not involved. Plasma membranes contained high- and low-affinity ATPase activities. Apparent K0.5 values were 8 microM for the major Mg2+-ATPase and 1.1 microM for the high-affinity Ca2+-ATPase, respectively. The Mg2+-ATPase activity was inhibited by elevated concentrations of Ca2+, whereas both Ca2+-ATPases were active in the absence of added Mg2+. The activities of the Ca2+-ATPases were not modified by calmodulin. The high-affinity Ca2+-ATPase was competitively inhibited by La3+ and Cd2+; we suggest that this high-affinity enzyme mediates the release of Ca2+ from D. discoideum cells.

Using an enzyme-histochemical technique, rat spinal cords were stained for Cl(-)-ATPase, Na+,K+-ATPase and anion-insensitive Mg2+-ATPase. Cl(-)-ATPase activity was demonstrated in plasma membranes of spinal motoneurons, Na+,K+-ATPase activity and anion-insensitive Mg2+-ATPase activity were detected in neuronal plasma membranes and blood vessels, respectively.

Transverse tubules (t-tubules) were prepared from muscle by dissociation of intact triads during centrifugation in ion-free sucrose gradients. They were further purified by the removal of contaminating sarcoplasmic reticulum after loading with calcium phosphate. Purification was accompanied by enrichment in markers specific for t-tubules, e.g., nitrendipine binding sites. According to gel electrophoresis the purified t-tubules contained three major protein bands of 104, 70, and 30 kDa. When solubilized with detergents there was a two- to threefold increase in Mg2+-ATPase activity, and a corresponding increase in the 30-kDa protein band. The 104-kDa protein was shown to be a (Na+ + K+)-ATPase because of its phosphorylation by [gamma-32P]ATP in the presence of sodium ions. The orientation of the t-tubule membrane was predominantly inside-out.

Binding experiments were performed with [3H]ouabain on plasma membranes derived from several types of isolated and cultivated endothelial cells. Identical saturation curves for [3H]ouabain binding to endothelial cells from pig aorta, caval vein, and pulmonary artery were obtained with a dissociation constant (KD) of 3.29 +/- 0.31 nmol/l and a binding capacity (Bmax) of 5.22 +/- 0.12 pmol/mg protein. On guinea-pig coronary endothelial cells, saturation of [3H]ouabain revealed much lower affinity (KD 95 +/- 15 nmol/l, Bmax 2.08 +/- 0.09 pmol/mg protein). All Scatchard plots were linear, indicating a homogeneous class of binding sites. In competition experiments, cardiac glycosides and their aglycons displaced the radioligand with a structure-activity relationship typical for interaction with Na+/K+-ATPase (proscillaridin A greater than ouabain greater than digoxin greater than g-strophanthidin greater than digoxigenin greater than dihydrodigoxin); in particular, removal of the sugar moiety results in considerable reduction of affinity. Furthermore, K+ displayed a steep inhibition curve with a half-maximal inhibitory constant of 2 mmol/l. All these findings suggest the presence of endothelial ouabain receptors linked to Na+/K+-ATPase. However, direct measurement of this enzyme was not possible due to an extremely high Mg2+-ATPase activity.
