The antisecretory properties of imipramine on gastric secretion in guinea pig in comparison with other antisecretory agents was determined. In awake guinea pigs s.c. infusion of histamine (30 micrograms/kg/hr) increased acid and fluid secretion by 3- to 4-fold. When acid output peaked, a bolus administration of the tricyclic anti-depressant imipramine inhibited acid and fluid secretion. Imipramine and other agents, such as ranitidine and omeprazole, inhibited gastric secretion in a dose-dependent fashion. The most potent was the H2-antagonist ranitidine (IC50, 0.2-0.3 mumol/kg), followed by the gastric H-K-adenosine triphosphatase inhibitor, omeprazole (IC50, 0.5-0.6 mumol/kg). Imipramine (IC50 1-2 mumol/kg) was the least potent of the inhibitors. Both ranitidine and omeprazole could abolish acid secretion, but maximal inhibition with imipramine was 60% of initial. Promethazine (25 mumol/kg), an H1 antagonist, and atropine (12 mumol/kg), a muscarinic antagonist, inhibited gastric secretion by 40 to 50%. Imipramine and atropine also inhibited basal acid secretion. In dispersed gastric cells comparison between imipramine and omeprazole showed that imipramine was about 5-fold more potent than omeprazole in blocking histamine or dibutyryl cyclic AMP stimulation of aminopyrine accumulation. Imipramine probably acts as a protonophore by increasing the rate of proton-gradient dissipation rather than by interfering with the hydrogen-pump system because, in gastric membranes, imipramine was 20-fold less potent than omeprazole in inhibiting the gastric H-K-adenosine triphosphatase activity. These results suggest that imipramine administered s.c. in guinea pigs is a potent antisecretory drug. Its action may be due to a combination of anticholinergic and antihistamine H2 activities.

2-Bromoethylamine hydrobromide (BEA) causes complete papillary necrosis within 24-hr of i.v. administration. The mechanism of this effect is unknown. To characterize further the effect of BEA in transporting epithelia, the urinary bladders of toads and turtles were exposed to varying concentrations of BEA in vitro. In the toad bladder, both cyclic AMP- and vasopressin-stimulated water flow were significantly inhibited after 3 hr of exposure to BEA at a concentration as low as 2.5 X 10(-4) g/ml; after 1 and 2 hr no effect on water transport was observed. Serosal administration of BEA to both toad and turtle bladders significantly inhibited sodium transport to 54% of control at the end of 3 hr. The effect on sodium transport was seen as early as 10 min. The threshold for the effect on sodium transport occurred at a concentration less than that observed for water transport. By contrast, BEA had no effect on hydrogen ion secretion in the isolated turtle bladder over a wide range of concentrations. In fact, after 1 hr, BEA significantly stimulated hydrogen ion secretion. In homogenates of stripped turtle bladder mucosa, BEA significantly inhibited total Na-K adenosine triphosphatase and ouabain sensitive Na-K adenosine triphosphatase. Thus, in anuran membranes, BEA inhibits water and sodium transport but has no effect on acidification. These results suggest that its action in vivo may be related to alterations in cell volume regulation resulting from inhibition of sodium transport rather than a nonspecific toxic effect on the inner medullary epithelium.

Hydrolysis of adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) and p-nitrophenyl phosphate by the hydrogen ion-transporting potassium-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase (H,K-ATPase) was investigated. Hydrolysis of ATP was studied at pH 7.4 in vesicles treated with the ionophore nigericin. The kinetic analysis showed negative cooperativity with one high affinity (Km1 = 3 microM) and one low affinity (Km2 = 208 microM) site for ATP. The rate of hydrolysis decreased at 2000 microM ATP indicating a third site for ATP. When the pH was decreased to 6.5 the experimental results followed Michaelis-Menten enzyme kinetics with one low affinity site (Km = 116 microM). Higher concentrations than 750 microM ATP were inhibitory. Proton transport was measured as accumulation of acridine orange in vesicles equilibrated with 150 mM KCl. The transport at various concentrations of ATP in the pH interval from 6.0 to 8.0 correlated well with the Hill equation with a Hill coefficient between 1.5-1.9. The concentration of ATP resulting in half-maximal transport rate (S0.5) increased from 5 microM at pH 6.0 to 420 microM at pH 8.0. At acidic pH the rate of proton transport decreased at 1000 microM ATP. The K+-stimulated p-nitrophenylphosphatase (pNPPase) activity resulted in a Hill coefficient close to 2 indicating cooperative binding of substrate. The pNPPase was noncompetitively inhibited by ATP and ADP; half-maximal inhibition was obtained at 2 and 100 microM, respectively. Phospholipase C-treated vesicles lost 80% of the pNPPase activity, but the Hill coefficient did not change. These kinetic results are used for a further development of the reaction scheme of the H,K-ATPase.

Isolated gastric glands from rabbit, as well as basolateral and microsomal membranes derived therefrom, were used to examine the effect of ethanol on several parameters related to acid secretion. Low concentrations of ethanol, 0.2%-5% (vol/vol), had no effect on basal aminopyrine accumulation by isolated gastric glands but significantly potentiated aminopyrine accumulation stimulated by histamine. In contrast, this dose range of ethanol inhibited aminopyrine accumulation stimulated by forskolin or dibutyryl-cyclic adenosine monophosphate. This dose range of ethanol produced a similar effect on adenylate cyclase activity of basolateral membranes from isolated gastric glands, with potentiation of histamine stimulation and inhibition of forskolin stimulation. Low-dose ethanol was found to produce increased proton permeability of the apical membrane of the parietal cell but had no effect on hydrogen-potassium-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase activity. Ethanol (10%) significantly inhibited all parameters of acid secretion studied. Ethanol has a biphasic effect on acid secretion with potentiation of histamine-stimulated aminopyrine accumulation and adenylate cyclase activity at low doses and inhibition of all parameters of acid secretion at high doses.

The pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, clinical efficacy, adverse effects, and dosage and administration of omeprazole are reviewed. Omeprazole, a substituted benzimidazole, has a unique site and mechanism of action because it inhibits the proton pump--i.e., hydrogen, potassium adenosine triphosphatase (H+,K+-ATPase)--and consequently blocks the final common step in the gastric acid secretory pathway. Omeprazole inhibits basal and histamine-, gastrin- and pentagastrin-stimulated gastric hydrochloric acid secretion. It produces a dose-dependent reduction in gastric acidity, gastric acid output, and gastric juice volume and has variable effects on pepsin secretion. Omeprazole has no documented effect on esophageal motility or lower esophageal sphincter pressure. Omeprazole is variably absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, and food appears to decrease the rate, but not the extent, of drug absorption. The drug is approximately 95% bound to plasma proteins and is metabolized to inactive components that are enterohepatically or renally eliminated. Omeprazole is more effective (in most studies) than H2-receptor antagonists in treating duodenal ulcer, at least as effective in treating benign gastric ulcer, and more effective in treating reflux esophagitis. Omeprazole has been used successfully in patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome refractory to treatment with H2-receptor antagonists. Gastrointestinal complaints (nausea and diarrhea) are the most commonly reported adverse effects associated with omeprazole therapy. The most frequently reported laboratory abnormality occurring with omeprazole use is elevation of serum aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase concentrations. Omeprazole will serve a valuable role in the management of gastrointestinal tract ulcers and hypersecretory conditions.

The plasma membrane (Mg2+)-dependent adenosine triphosphatase [Mg2+)-ATPase) from human erythrocytes has been tested for its ability to transport ions. Using a preparation of inside-out vesicles loaded with the pH-sensitive fluorescence probe 1-hydroxypyrene-3,6,8-trisulfonic acid (HPTS), we have demonstrated the absence of proton movement during (Mg2+)-ATPase activity. From the rate of ATP hydrolysis and the passive proton permeability of these vesicles, an upper limit of 0.03 H+ transported per ATP hydrolyzed was calculated. To verify that proton pumping could be detected in this system, the intravesicular pH was monitored during (Ca2+)-dependent adenosine triphosphatase [Ca2+)-ATPase) activity. Proton efflux associated with (Ca2+)-ATPase activity was observed (in agreement with a recent report of proton pumping by a reconstituted erythrocyte (Ca2+)-ATPase (Niggli, V., Sigel, E., Carafoli, E. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257:2350-2356] and was shown to be stimulated by calmodulin. The ability of the (Mg2+)-ATPase to pump 28Mg2+, 35SO2-4 and 86Rb+ was also tested, with the results leading to the conclusion that the human erythrocyte enzyme does not function as an ion transport system.

Effects of some organic compounds of different hydrophobicity on the structure and ion specificity of the sodium-potassium adenosine triphosphatase (Na,K-ATPase) membrane preparation were studied. Inhibition abilities of these compounds correlate well with their lipophilic properties. High hydrophobic compounds change mainly the enzyme activation by potassium ions and the spin label mobilities in hydrophobic regions of the membrane preparation. Polar species, in contrast, influence the enzyme activation by sodium ions and the surface polar properties of the membrane preparation. It is supposed, that the Na,K-ATPase activations by potassium and sodium ions are correspondingly related to hydrophobic regions of the lipoprotein enzyme complex and to the polar regions stabilized by hydrogen bonds.

The rates of hydrogen-deuterium exchange in the peptide groups of the alpha and beta subunits and the alpha-beta subunit complex of proton-translocating adenosine triphosphatase from the thermophilic bacterium PS3 were examined. The exchange was found to be much slower in the isolated beta subunit than in the isolated alpha subunit. This has been taken as indicating that the structure of the beta subunit is tighter than that of the alpha subunit. Adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) caused tightening of a relatively tight portion of the alpha subunit and of a relatively loose portion of the beta subunit. When the alpha and beta subunits are brought into contact, tightening of the alpha subunit, but not the beta subunit, occurs. The effect of ATP on the structure of the beta subunit is more pronounced in the presence of the alpha subunit than in its absence. These findings support the idea proposed previously that the alpha subunit has an allosteric site and the beta subunit a catalytic site and that the conformation of the beta subunit is controlled by the alpha subunit.

An initial event in gram-negative bacteremia is activation of the complement cascade with production of C5a. C5a, in turn, acts as a chemotactic stimulus for leukocytic aggregation and, in conjunction with bacterial products, stimulates the release of oxygen free radicals from leukocytes. We have hypothesized that these oxygen free radicals (.O2-, superoxide anion; .OH, hydroxyl radical; H2O2, hydrogen peroxide) contribute to the characteristic myocardial dysfunction of endotoxin shock, Isolated canine cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) was used as a subcellular determinant of mechanical function. SR was incubated for 20 min at 37 degrees C in the presence of phorbol myristate acetate activated leukocytes (A-L) and calcium uptake and Ca2+-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activities were measured. Activated leukocytes significantly depressed SR Ca2+ uptake rates (C = 1.12 +/- 0.05 mumol CA2+/mg-min; A-L = 0.73 +/- 0.05). The addition of catalase (CAT; 10 micrograms/ml) or superoxide dismutase (SOD: 10 micrograms/ml) plus CAT reversed the inhibition of SR Ca2+ uptake. SOD further depressed SR Ca2+ uptake (+SOD = 0.55 +/0 0.04 mumol Ca2+/mg-min). Mannitol had no effect. SR ATPase activity was inhibited with A-L (C = 1.41 +/- 0.04 mumol Pi/mg-min; A-L = 0.84 +/- 0.09). Neither mannitol, nor SOD nor CAT alone had any effect on the depression of SR ATPase activity. SOD plus CAT reversed the ATPase depression induced by A-L. It is concluded that phorbol myristate acetate activated leukocytes via free radical-mediated mechanisms can directly affect function and activity of the excitation-contraction coupling system of cardiac muscle. Free radical scavengers identified hydrogen peroxide as a major mediator of depressed Ca2+ uptake rates. In conjunction with the superoxide anion, hydrogen peroxide contributes to the depressed ATPase activity.

The relationship of Wiener's topological index and molecular connectivity index with antiulcer activity of a series of 4-substituted-2-guanidino thiazole analogs has been investigated. The values of Wiener's topological index and molecular connectivity index of 128 compounds were computed and active ranges were identified. The activity assigned to each analog using these topological descriptors was subsequently compared with the reported in vitro and in vivo activities against gastric hydrogen-potassium stimulated adenosine triphosphatase (H+K(+)-ATPase) enzyme. Predictions with an accuracy of the order of approximately 89% were observed with regard to in vivo activity using these topological indices.
