Rats exposed to 85% O2 for 5-7 days develop tolerance to otherwise lethal
hyperoxia
(100% O2). The rate of alveolar fluid clearance increases during adaptation to
hyperoxia
, due in part to increased alveolar epithelial sodium channel activity. In these studies, we have investigated molecular mechanisms leading to increased lung Na+,K(+)-
ATPase
activity in
hyperoxia
. We exposed adult rats to 85% O2 (sublethal
hyperoxia
) for 7 days, followed by 2, 3, or 4 days in 100% O2. Steady-state levels of the Na+,K(+)-
ATPase
alpha 1 and beta 1 subunit mRNAs increased in whole lung tissue during
hyperoxia
exposures. Stability of the Na+,K(+)-
ATPase
alpha 1 and beta 1 subunit mRNA messages in whole lung RNA did not change significantly. Thus, lung Na+,K(+)-
ATPase
gene expression in sublethal
hyperoxia
appears to be regulated in part at the transcriptional level. Alveolar epithelial type II (ATII) cell Na+,K(+)-
ATPase
alpha 1 and beta 1 subunit proteins, measured by quantitative immunofluorescence, increased significantly after sublethal
hyperoxia
and 100% O2 exposures. Increases in lung fluid clearance after sublethal
hyperoxia
are associated with increased ATII cell Na+,K(+)-
ATPase
protein and whole lung Na+,K(+)-ATPase mRNA expression, which correspond to previously described increases in epithelial sodium channel expression under these conditions.

The lung epithelium resorbs alveolar fluid through combined action of sodium channels and the sodium pump, Na,K-
ATPase
. The lung often is exposed to
hyperoxia
in disease states and
hyperoxia
generates a mixture of reactive oxygen species. In vivo and in vitro exposure of rat lung and alveolar type II cells, respectively, increases gene expression of both alpha-1 and beta-1 subunits of the sodium pump. In contrast to the primary type II cells, several type II cell lines did not increase sodium pump gene expression with
hyperoxia
, but the renal tubular epithelial MDCK cell line did. Using promoter-receptor constructs transfected into MDCK cells,
hyperoxia
did not markedly increase transcription of the alpha-1 subunit but doubled transcription of the beta-1 subunit gene. Using 5'-deletion constructs, the region required for the beta-1 increase was localized to a 40-base pair region from -44/-84. The hyperoxic responsiveness of this region was confirmed using constructs with one or two copies of this region placed in minimal promoter-luciferase reporters. This 5' promoter region contains a consensus binding sequence for SP-1, a basal transcription factor but not for binding of other known transcription factors. Thus,
hyperoxia
induces Na,K-
ATPase
beta-1 promoter transcription, likely acting through a novel mechanism.

This study was undertaken to examine the combined effect of nitric oxide (NO) and
hyperoxia
on lung edema and Na,K-
ATPase
expression. Newborn piglets were exposed to room air (FiO2 = 0.21), room air plus 50 ppm NO,
hyperoxia
(FiO2 >/= 0.96) or to
hyperoxia
plus 50 ppm NO for 4-5 days. Animals exposed to NO in room air experienced only a slight decrease in Na,K-ATPase alpha subunit protein level.
Hyperoxia
, in the absence of NO, induced both the mRNA and the protein level of Na,K-ATP-ase alpha subunit and significantly increased wet lung weight, extravascular lung water, and alveolar permeability. NO in
hyperoxia
decreased the hyperoxic-mediated induction of Na,K-ATPase alpha subunit mRNA and protein while wet lung weight, extravascular lung water, and alveolar permeability remained elevated. These results suggest that 50 ppm of inhaled NO may not improve hyperoxic-induced lung injury and may interfere with the expression of Na,K-
ATPase
which constitutes a part of the cellular defense mechanism against oxygen toxicity.

Exposure to
hyperoxia
causes lung injury, decreases active sodium transport and lung edema clearance in rats. Dopamine (DA) increases lung edema clearance by stimulating vectorial Na+ flux and Na, K-
ATPase
function in rat alveolar epithelium. This study was designed to test whether DA (10(-)5 M) would increase lung edema clearance in rats exposed to 100% O2 for 64 h. Active Na+ transport and lung edema clearance decreased by approximately 44% in rats exposed to acute
hyperoxia
(p < 0.001). DA increased lung edema clearance in room air breathing rats (from 0.50 +/- 0.02 to 0.75 +/- 0.06 ml/h) and in rats exposed to 100% O2 (from 0.28 +/- 0.03 to 0. 67 +/- 0.03 ml/h). Disruption of cell microtubular transport system by colchicine blocked the stimulatory effect of DA on active Na+ transport in control and hyperoxic rats, whereas the isomer beta-lumicolchicine, which does not affect cell microtubular transport, did not inhibit the stimulatory effects of dopamine. The Na,K-
ATPase
alpha1-subunit protein abundance increased in the basolateral membranes of alveolar type II (ATII) cells incubated with 10(-)5 M DA for 15 min, probably by recruiting Na+ pumps from intracellular pools. Colchicine, but not beta-lumicolchicine, prevented the recruitment of alpha1 subunits to the plasma membrane by DA. Accordingly, DA restored lung ability to clear edema in hyperoxic-injured rat lungs. Conceivably, dopamine induces recruitment of Na+ pumps from intracellular pools to the plasma membrane of alveolar epithelial cells and thus increases lung edema clearance.

We evaluated the effects of acute hyperoxic exposure on alveolar epithelial cell (AEC) active ion transport and on expression of Na+ pump (Na+-K+-
ATPase
) and rat epithelial Na+ channel subunits. Rat AEC were cultivated in minimal defined serum-free medium (MDSF) on polycarbonate filters. Beginning on day 5, confluent monolayers were exposed to either 95% air-5% CO2 (normoxia) or 95% O2-5% CO2 (
hyperoxia
) for 48 h. Transepithelial resistance (Rt) and short-circuit current (Isc) were determined before and after exposure. Na+ channel alpha-, beta-, and gamma-subunit and Na+-K+-
ATPase
alpha1- and beta1-subunit mRNA levels were quantified by Northern analysis. Na+ pump alpha1- and beta1-subunit protein abundance was quantified by Western blotting. After hyperoxic exposure, Isc across AEC monolayers decreased by approximately 60% at 48 h relative to monolayers maintained under normoxic conditions. Na+ channel beta-subunit mRNA expression was reduced by
hyperoxia
, whereas alpha- and gamma-subunit mRNA expression was unchanged. Na+ pump alpha1-subunit mRNA was unchanged, whereas beta1-subunit mRNA was decreased approximately 80% by
hyperoxia
in parallel with a reduction in beta1-subunit protein. Because keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) has recently been shown to upregulate AEC active ion transport and expression of Na+-K+-
ATPase
under normoxic conditions, we assessed the ability of KGF to prevent
hyperoxia
-induced changes in active ion transport by supplementing medium with KGF (10 ng/ml) from day 2. The presence of KGF prevented the effects of
hyperoxia
on ion transport (as measured by Isc) relative to normoxic controls. Levels of beta1 mRNA and protein were relatively preserved in monolayers maintained in MDSF and KGF compared with those cultivated in MDSF alone. These results indicate that AEC net active ion transport is decreased after 48 h of
hyperoxia
, likely as a result of a decrease in the number of functional Na+ pumps per cell. KGF largely prevents this decrease in active ion transport, at least in part, by preserving Na+ pump expression.

Exposure of adult rats to 100% O(2) results in lung injury and decreases active sodium transport and lung edema clearance. It has been reported that beta-adrenergic agonists increase lung edema clearance in normal rat lungs by upregulating alveolar epithelial Na(+)-K(+)-
ATPase
function. This study was designed to examine whether isoproterenol (Iso) affects lung edema clearance in rats exposed to 100% O(2) for 64 h. Active Na(+) transport and lung edema clearance decreased by approximately 44% in rats exposed to acute
hyperoxia
. Iso (10(-6) M) increased the ability of the lung to clear edema in room-air-breathing rats (from 0.50 +/- 0.02 to 0.99 +/- 0. 05 ml/h) and in rats exposed to 100% O(2) (from 0.28 +/- 0.03 to 0. 86 +/- 0.09 ml/h; P < 0.001). Disruption of intracellular microtubular transport of ion-transporting proteins by colchicine (0. 25 mg/100 g body wt) inhibited the stimulatory effects of Iso in
hyperoxia
-injured rat lungs, whereas the isomer beta-lumicolchicine, which does not affect microtubular transport, did not inhibit active Na(+) transport stimulated by Iso. Accordingly, Iso restored the lung's ability to clear edema after hyperoxic lung injury, probably by stimulation of the recruitment of ion-transporting proteins (Na(+)-K(+)-
ATPase
) from intracellular pools to the plasma membrane in rat alveolar epithelium.

At term of pregnancy, oxygen consumption by the human or ovine placenta accounts for 40 per cent of total oxygen uptake by the gravid uterus. In the sheep, most oxygen is used for oxidative phosphorylation of glucose; the remainder is probably utilized for non-mitochondrial processes. The ATP yield is expended mainly in protein synthesis and cation transport. The fractional protein synthesis rate of ovine placenta is 60 per cent per day. Applying these data to man, protein synthesis is estimated to account for about 30 per cent of placental oxygen uptake. Probably this reflects the high rates of synthesis of peptide and steroid hormones. The Na+ gradient is the basis for secondary active transport of amino acids and other substances, and the Na(+)-K(+)-pump probably accounts for 20-30 per cent of oxygen uptake, with a smaller contribution from Ca(2+)-
ATPase
. Placental oxygen uptake remains constant during acute reductions in uterine oxygen supply and is maintained at the expense of the fetus. In the longer term, in experimental models of fetal growth restriction, placental oxygen consumption is reduced to a greater extent than fetal oxygen consumption. Placental oxygen consumption is greatly reduced under in vitro experimental conditions, due largely to an inadequate oxygen supply. This results in reduced protein synthesis and possibly inhibition of Na(+)-K(+)-
ATPase
. However, if the placenta is subjected to
hyperoxia
, by raising the PO2 of the medium, there is an increase in anaerobic glycolysis and structural damage may ensue. Premature exposure of trophoblast to high oxygen tensions in vivo may result in reduced villous branching, but this is likely to be a cause, rather than a consequence, of reduced fetal growth and oxygen consumption.

The sodium pump, Na,K-
ATPase
, is an important protein for maintaining intracellular ion concentration, cellular volume, and ion transport and is regulated both transcriptionally and post-transcriptionally. We previously demonstrated that
hyperoxia
increased Na,K-
ATPase
beta(1) gene expression in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. In this study, we identify a DNA element necessary for up-regulation of the Na,K-
ATPase
beta(1) transcription by
hyperoxia
and evaluate the nuclear proteins responsible for this up-regulation. Transient transfection experiments in MDCK cells using sequential 5'-deletions of the rat Na,K-
ATPase
beta(1) promoter-luciferase fusion gene demonstrated promoter activation by
hyperoxia
between -102 and +151. The
hyperoxia
response was localized to a 7-base pair region between -62 and -55, which contained a GC-rich region consistent with a consensus sequence for the SP1 family, that was sufficient for up-regulation by
hyperoxia
. This GC element exhibited both basal and
hyperoxia
-induced promoter activity and bound both transcription factors SP1 and SP3 in electrophoretic mobility shift assays. In addition, electrophoretic mobility shift assays demonstrated increased binding of SP1/SP3 in cells exposed to
hyperoxia
while mutation of this element eliminated protein binding. Other GC sites within the proximal promoter also demonstrated up-regulation of transcription by
hyperoxia
, however, the site at -55 had higher affinity for SP proteins.

Adult rats exposed to
hyperoxia
develop anorexia, weight loss, and a lung injury characterized by pulmonary edema and decreased lung liquid clearance. We hypothesized that maintenance of nutrition during
hyperoxia
could attenuate
hyperoxia
-induced pulmonary edema. To test this hypothesis, we enterally fed adult male Sprague-Dawley rats via gastrostomy tubes and exposed them to oxygen (inspired O(2) fraction >0.95) for 64 h. In contrast to controls, enterally fed hyperoxic animals did not lose weight and had smaller pleural effusions and wet-to-dry weight ratios (a measure of lung edema) that were not different from room air controls. Enterally fed rats exposed to
hyperoxia
had increased levels of mRNA for the Na(+)-K(+)-
ATPase
alpha(1)- and beta(1)-subunits and glutathione peroxidase. These findings suggest that maintenance of nutrition during an oxidative lung injury reduces lung edema, perhaps by allowing for continued expression and function of protective proteins such as the Na(+)-K(+)-
ATPase
.

Changes in branchial vacuolar-type H(+)-ATPase B-subunit mRNA and Na+, K(+)-
ATPase
alpha- and beta-subunit mRNA and ATP hydrolytic activity were examined in smolting Atlantic salmon exposed to hyperoxic and/or hypercapnic fresh water. Pre-smolts, smolts, and post-smolts were exposed for 1 to 4 days to
hyperoxia
(100% O2) and/or hypercapnia (2% CO2). Exposure to hypercapnic water for 4 days consistently decreased gill vacuolar-type H(+)-ATPase B-subunit mRNA levels. Salmon exposed to
hyperoxia
had either decreased or unchanged levels of gill B-subunit mRNA. Combined
hyperoxia
+ hypercapnia decreased B-subunit mRNA levels, although not to the same degree as hypercapnic treatment alone.
Hyperoxia
generally increased Na+, K(+)-
ATPase
alpha- and beta-subunit mRNA levels, whereas hypercapnia reduced mRNA levels in presmolts (beta) and smolts (alpha and beta). Despite these changes in mRNA levels, whole tissue Na+, K(+)-
ATPase
activity was generally unaffected by the experimental treatments. We suggest that the reduced expression of branchial vacuolar-type H(+)-ATPase B-subunit mRNA observed during internal hypercapnic acidosis may lead to reduction of functional V-type H(+)-
ATPase
abundance as a compensatory response in order to minimise intracellular HCO3- formation in epithelial cells.
