Volume changes of cardiac tissue under hyperosmotic stress in Rana catesbeiana were characterized by the identification of the osmolytes involved and the possible regulatory processes activated by both abrupt and gradual changes in media osmolality (from 220 to 280mosmol/kg H(2)O). Slices of R. catesbeiana cardiac tissue were subjected to hyperosmotic shock, and total tissue Na(+), K(+), Cl(-) and ninhydrin-positive substances were measured. Volume changes were also induced in the presence of transport inhibitors to identify osmolyte pathways. The results show a maximum volume loss to 90.86+/-0.73% of the original volume (measured as 9% decrease in wet weight) during abrupt hyperosmotic shock. However, during a gradual osmotic challenge the volume was never significantly different from that of the control. During both types of hyperosmotic shock, we observed an increase in Na(+) but no significant change in Cl(-) contents. Additionally, we found no change in ninhydrin-positive substances during any osmotic challenge. Pharmacological analyses suggest the involvement of the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger, and perhaps the HCO(3)(-)/Cl(-) exchanger. There is indirect evidence for decrease in Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase activity. The Na(+) fluxes seem to result from Mg(2+) signaling, as saline rich in Mg(2+) enhances the regulatory volume increase, followed by a higher intracellular Na(+) content. The volume maintenance mechanisms activated during the gradual osmotic change are similar to that activated by abrupt osmotic shock. 相似文献

Voltage-clamp analysis of single cuticle-attached epidermal cells dissected from the newly-ecdysed mealworm revealed the presence of a large inwardly-rectifying anion (i.e. outwardly-going) current. In many cells this current formed spontaneously on breaking into the cell with the patch pipette when the bath solution was isoosmotic with the pipette solution (415 mosmol/l). The current was evoked rapidly by electrical stimulation or by bathing the cells in hyposmotic saline (335 mosmol/l). The reversal potential of the activated current shifted in agreement with the Nernst prediction for Cl(-) when the transmembrane chloride gradient was altered by partially substituting bath or patch pipette Cl(-) with gluconate(-). Substitution of Na(+) with choline(+) or K(+) with TEA and Ba(+) in the bath or pipette solutions did not alter the reversal potential. Addition of 200 &mgr;mol/l cyclic AMP or 1 mmol/l cyclic GMP to the pipette solution increased the initial current strength and reduced the time taken to reach half peak amplitude from 117 sec to 49 sec and 41 sec, respectively. Cyclic AMP also raised the threshold at which the current developed under hyperosmotic conditions by about 20 mosmol/l. Addition of the Cl(-) channel blockers diphenylamine-2-carboxylic acid (200 &mgr;mmol/l) and diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulphonic acid (250 &mgr;mol/l) to the bath solution reduced the inwardly-rectifying anion current by 50%. This current was barely detectable in cells prepared from the mid-instar integument. This non-constitutive pattern of expression suggests that cellular Cl(-) efflux (and that of other anions) may be required during moult-cycle specific processes such as moulting fluid formation and cell volume regulation. As the strength of the epidermal anion current could be raised by the exogenous application of cytosolic cyclic nucleotides, the activity of the anion channels responsible for this current may normally be regulated by yet-to-be-identified hormone(s) or neuropeptide(s) acting on this tissue. 相似文献

Shrinkage is the earliest hallmark of cells undergoing apoptosis. This study examines the role of this phenomenon in the onset of vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) apoptosis triggered by growth factor withdrawal. In hyperosmotic media, VSMC showed the same amplitude of shrinkage but were more resistant to apoptosis than endothelial, epithelial and immune system cells. As with growth factor withdrawal, apoptosis in hyperosmotically-shrunken VSMC was sharply potentiated by transfection with E1A-adenoviral protein and was suppressed by activation of cAMP signaling as well as by the pan-caspase inhibitor z-VAD.fmk. Both cell shrinkage and apoptosis in VSMC-E1A treated with hyperosmotic medium were potentiated under sustained Na+, K+ pump inhibition with ouabain that was in contrast to inhibition of apoptosis documented in ouabain-treated, serum-deprived cells. After 1-hr incubation in serum-deprived medium, VSMC-E1A volume declined by approximately 15%. Transfer from hypotonic to control medium decreased VSMC-E1A volume by approximately 25% without any induction of apoptosis. Neither swelling in hyposmotic medium nor dissipation of the transmembrane gradient of K+ and major organic osmolytes protected serum-deprived VSMC-E1A from apoptosis. Thus, our results show that similarly to immune system, endothelial and epithelial cells, extensive VSMC shrinkage in hyperosmotic medium leads to the development of apoptosis. In contrast to hyperosmotic medium, the modest cell volume decrease occurring in serum-deprived VSMC does not contribute to triggering of the apoptotic machinery. 相似文献

Amino acids play a role as osmolytes during the regulatory volume decrease subsequent to hyposmotic swelling, but less is known about its role when swelling occurs in isosmotic conditions. In this work we examined the efflux of labelled GABA, taurine and glutamate (traced as D-aspartate) from the chick retina, after isosmotic swelling evoked by KCl-containing solutions, and compared its features to those in hyposmotic swelling. In both conditions, GABA and taurine efflux were more sensitive to swelling than glutamate, as assessed by the activation threshold and the amount released. The amino acid efflux in hyposmotic media was decreased by DIDS, tamoxifen and NPPB, agents acting as Cl channels blockers, which also inhibit the osmosensitive Cl efflux. The component associated with swelling in the KCl-stimulated efflux was assessed by the reduction observed when Cl is replaced by an impermeant anion, or by the influence of hyperosmotic media. GABA and taurine efflux exhibited a large swelling-dependent component, which was lower for D-aspartate. This component was markedly decreased by NPPB, but this was due to an effect of the blocker preventing swelling. These results suggest that the influx of Cl, acting as K counterion, which is responsible for cell swelling, occurs through a pathway sensitive to NPPB, similarly to that activated by hyposmolarity. This finding may be of interest in studies aiming at preventing the cell edema which occurs in a number of pathologies. 相似文献

A novel relationship between branchial carbonic anhydrase II (CAII) and anion exchanger 1 (AE1) was investigated in the euryhaline spotted green pufferfish (Tetraodon nigroviridis). The immunoblots revealed that AE1 was only detected in the membrane fraction of gills while CAII can be probed both in the membrane and cytosol fractions of gills. CAII protein abundance in the membrane fraction is salinity dependent. Immunological detection of the membrane fraction CAII protein in gills showed 3.9-fold higher in the hyposmotic (freshwater) group than the hyperosmotic (seawater;35 per thousand) group. In contrast, there was no change in the protein level of cytosolic CAII between seawater and freshwater groups. The whole-mount immunocytochemical staining demonstrated that both AE1 and CAII were colocalized to the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase-immunoreactive cells in gill epithelium of the pufferfish. The interaction between CAII and AE1 was further identified by co-immunoprecipitation because AE1 was detected in the immunoprecipitates of CAII and vice versa. Our results showed that in pufferfish gills CAII was not only expressed in the cytosol to produce the substrate for AE1 transport during Cl(-) influx but also associated with the plasma membrane via AE1. Obviously, it is essential for the physiological function of AE1 to interact with CAII in the membrane of gill Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase-immunoreactive cells. To our knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate the interaction of branchial CAII and AE1 in fish. The novel correlation proposed a new model of Cl(-)/HCO(3) (-) transport in gills of the teleosts. 相似文献

Anemones are frequently found in rocky intertidal coasts. As they have highly permeable body surfaces, exposure to the air or to salinity variations inside tidal pools can represent intense osmotic and ionic challenges. The intertidal Bunodosoma caissarum has been compared with the subtidal Anemonia sargassensis concerning their response to air exposure or salinity changes. B. caissarum maintains tissue hydration through mucus production and dome-shape formation when challenged with air exposure or extreme salinities (fresh water or hypersaline seawater, 45 psu) for 1-2h. Upon exposure to mild osmotic shocks for 6h (hyposmotic: 25 psu, or hyperosmotic: 37 psu), B. caissarum was able to maintain its coelenteron fluid (CF) osmolality stable, but only in 25 psu. A. sargassensis CF osmolality followed the external medium in both salinities. Isolated cells of the pedal disc of B. caissarum showed full capacity for calcium-dependent regulatory volume decrease (RVD) upon 20% hyposmotic shock, at least partially involving the release of KCl via K(+)-Cl(-) cotransport, and also of organic osmolytes. Aquaporins (HgCl(2)-inhibited) likely participate in this process. Cells of A. sargassensis showed partial RVD, after 20 min. Cells from both species were not capable of regulatory volume increase upon hyperosmotic shock (20%). Whole organism and cellular mechanisms allow B. caissarum to live in the challenging intertidal habitat, frequently facing air exposure and seawater dilution. 相似文献

Summary The effects of increased fluid volume in the closed vascular system on circulation were studied in the leech (Hirudo medicinalis) by intravascular pressure recordings and blood flow measurements.Significant increases in blood volume were achieved by crop loading with hyposmotic (72 mOsmol·kg–1 H2O) or hyperosmotic (300 mOsmol·kg–1 H2O) salt solutions or by infusion of isosmotic saline (200 mOsmol·kg–1) into the vascular system.During the high-pressure (HIP) phase, which maintains the rear-to-front circulation, systolic blood pressure in the heart was not affected. An increase in systolic pressure in the heart was observed during the low-pressure (LOP) phase, which supplies the segmental circulation. Heart rate was not changed by crop loading with hyposmotic saline or by vascular infusion. Heart rate decreased after crop loading with hyperosmotic saline. Blood flow rate in the dorsal vessel was increased by crop loading with hyposmotic saline, but not after crop loading with hyperosmotic saline. In all cases the diameter of the dorsal vessel was not affected. A possible mechanism controlling blood pressure and blood flow in the vascular system is discussed.Abbreviations

The purpose of the present investigation was to establish an in vitro mammalian skeletal muscle model to study acute alterations in resting skeletal muscle cell volume. Isolated, whole muscles [soleus and extensor digitorum longus (EDL)] were dissected from Long-Evans rats and incubated for 60 min in Sigma medium 199 (1 g of resting tension, bubbled with 95% O(2)-5% O(2), 30 +/- 2 degrees C, and pH 7.4). Medium osmolality was altered to simulate hyposmotic (190 +/- 10 mmol/kg) or hyperosmotic conditions (400 +/- 10 mmol/kg), whereas an isosmotic condition (290 +/- 10 mmol/kg) served as a control. After incubation, relative water content of the muscle decreased with hyperosmotic and increased with hyposmotic condition in both muscle types (P < 0.05). The cross-sectional area of soleus type I and type II fibers increased (P < 0.05) in hyposmotic, whereas hyperosmotic exposure led to no detectable changes. The EDL type II fiber area decreased in the hyperosmotic condition and increased after hyposmotic exposure, whereas no change was observed in EDL type I fibers. Furthermore, exposure to the hyperosmotic condition in both muscle types resulted in decreased muscle ATP and phosphocreatine (P < 0.05) contents and increased creatine and lactate contents (P < 0.05) compared with control and hyposmotic conditions. This isolated skeletal muscle model proved viable and demonstrated that altering extracellular osmolality could cause acute alterations in muscle water content and resting muscle metabolism. 相似文献

Tritrichomonas foetus was shown to undergo a regulatory volume increase (RVI) when it was subjected to hyperosmotic challenge, but there was no regulatory volume decrease after hypoosmotic challenge, as determined by using both light-scattering methods and measurement of intracellular water space to monitor cell volume. An investigation of T. foetus intracellular amino acids revealed a pool size (65 mM) that was similar to that of Trichomonas vaginalis but was considerably smaller than those of Giardia intestinalis and Crithidia luciliae. Changes in amino acid concentrations in response to hyperosmotic challenge were found to account for only 18% of the T. foetus RVI. The T. foetus intracellular sodium and potassium concentrations were determined to be 35 and 119 mM, respectively. The intracellular K(+) concentration was found to increase considerably during exposure to hyperosmotic stress, and, assuming that there was a monovalent accompanying anion, this increase was estimated to account for 87% of the RVI. By using light scattering it was determined that the T. foetus RVI was enhanced by elevated external K(+) concentrations and was inhibited when K(+) and/or Cl(-) was absent from the medium. The results suggested that the well-documented Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl(-) cotransport system was responsible for the K(+) influx activated during the RVI. However, inhibitors of Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl(-) cotransport in other systems, such as quinine, ouabain, furosemide, and bumetanide, had no effect on the RVI or K(+) influx in T. foetus. 相似文献

We have applied an electrophysiologic technique (Reuss, L. (1985) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 82, 6014) to measure changes in steady-state hepatocyte volume during osmotic stress. Hepatocytes in mouse liver slices were loaded with tetramethylammonium ion (TMA+) during transient exposure of cells to nystatin. Intracellular TMA+ activity (alpha 1TMA) was measured with TMA(+)-sensitive, double-barrelled microelectrodes. Loading hepatocytes with TMA+ did not change their membrane potential (Vm), and under steady-state conditions alpha iTMA remained constant over 4 min in a single impalement. Hyperosmotic solutions (50, 100 and 150 mM sucrose added to media) and hyposmotic solutions (sucrose in media reduced by 50 and 100 mM) increased and decreased alpha iTMA, respectively, which demonstrated transmembrane water movements. The slope of the plot of change in steady-state cell water volume, [(alpha iTMA)0/(alpha iTMA)4min] -1, on the relative osmolality of media, (experimental mosmol/control mosmol) -1, was less predicted for a perfect osmometer. Corresponding measurements of Vm showed that its magnitude increased with hyposmolality and decreased with hyperosmolality. When Ba2+ (2 mM) was present during hyposmotic stress of 0.66 X 286 mosmol (control), cell water volume increased by a factor of 1.44 +/- 0.02 compared with that of hyposmotic stress alone, which increased cell water volume by a factor of only 1.12 +/- 0.02, P less than 0.001. Ba2+ also decreased the hyperpolarization of hyposmotic stress from a factor of 1.62 +/- 0.04 to 1.24 +/- 0.09, P less than 0.01. We conclude that hepatocytes partially regulate their steady-state volume during hypo- and hyperosmotic stress. However, volume regulation during hyposmotic stress diminished along with hyperpolarization of Vm in the presence of K(+)-channel blocker, Ba2+. This shows that variation in Vm during osmotic stress provides an intercurrent, electromotive force for hepatocyte volume regulation. 相似文献

Freshwater (FW) rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) urinary bladders mounted in vitro under symmetrical saline conditions displayed electroneutral active absorption of Na(+) and Cl(-) from the mucosal side; the transepithelial potential (V(t)) was 0.1 mV, and the short-circuit current was less than 1 microA cm(-2). Removal of Na(+) from mucosal saline decreased Cl(-) absorption by 56% and removal of Cl(-) decreased Na(+) absorption by 69%. However, active net absorption of both Na(+) and Cl(-) was not abolished when Cl(-) or Na(+) was replaced with an impermeant ion (gluconate or choline, respectively). Under physiological conditions with artificial urine (?Na(+) = 2.12 mM, ?Cl(-) = 3.51 mM) bathing the mucosal surface and saline bathing the serosal surface, transepithelial potential (V(t)) increased to a serosal positive approximately +7.6 mV. Unidirectional influx rates of both Na(+) and Cl(-) were 10-20-fold lower but active absorption of both ions still occurred according to the Ussing flux ratio criterion. Replacement of Na(+) with choline, or Cl(-) with gluconate, in the mucosal artificial urine yielded no change in unidirectional influx of Cl(-) or Na(+), respectively. However, kinetic analyses indicated a decrease in maximum Na(+) transport rate (J(max)) of 66% with no change in affinity (K(m)) in the low Cl(-) mucosal solution relative to the control solution. Similarly, there was a 79% decrease in J(max) values for Cl(-), again with no change in K(m), in the low-Na(+) mucosal bathing. The mucosal addition of DIDS, amiloride or bumetanide (10(-4) M) had no effect on either Na(+) or Cl(-) transport, under either symmetrical saline or artificial urine/saline conditions. Addition of the three drugs simultaneously (10(-4) M), or chlorothiazide (10(-3) M), under symmetrical saline conditions also had no effect on Na(+) or Cl(-) transport rates. Cyanide (10(-3) M) addition to mucosal artificial urine caused a slowly developing decrease of Na(+) influx to 59% and Cl(-) influx to 50% in the period after drug addition. Na(+) and Cl(-) reabsorption appears to be a partially coupled process in the urinary bladder of O. mykiss; transport mechanisms are both dependent upon and independent of the other ion. 相似文献

Ion and water transport across the teleost Oncorhynchus mykiss gallbladder were studied in vivo by comparing flow and composition of hepatic bile, collected by chronic catheter, to volume and composition of terminally collected gallbladder bile. Differences in composition were comparable with those of other vertebrates, whereas bile flow (75 microl. kg(-1). h(-1)) was below values reported for endothermic vertebrates. The gallbladder concentrates bile acids five- to sevenfold and exhibits higher net Cl(-) than Na(+) transport in vivo, in contrast to the 1:1 transport ratio from gallbladders under saline/saline conditions. Transepithelial potential (TEP) in the presence of bile, at the apical surface, was -13 mV (bile side negative) but +1.5 mV in the presence of saline. Bile acid in the apical saline reversed the TEP, presumably by a Donnan effect. We propose that ion transport across the gallbladder in vivo involves backflux of Na(+) from blood to bile resulting in higher net Cl(-) than Na(+) flux. This Na(+) backflux is driven by a bile side negative TEP and low Na(+) activity in bile due to the complexing effects of bile acids. 相似文献

On exposure to hyposmotic acidic water, teleost fish suffer from decreases in blood osmolality and pH, and consequently activate osmoregulatory and acid-base regulatory mechanisms to restore disturbed ion and acid-base balances. In Mozambique tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus exposed to acidic (pH 4.0) or neutral (pH 7.4-7.7) freshwater in combination with 0mM or 50mM NaCl, we examined functional and morphological changes in gill mitochondria-rich (MR) cells. We assessed gene expression of Na(+)/H(+) exchanger-3 (NHE3), Na(+)/Cl(-) cotransporter (NCC), vacuolar-type H(+)-ATPase (V-ATPase) and Na(+)/HCO(3)(-) cotransporter-1 (NBC1) in the gills. The mRNA expression of NHE3 and NCC in tilapia gills were higher in acidic freshwater than in that supplemented with 50mM NaCl, while there was no significant difference in mRNA levels of V-ATPase and NBC1. In addition, immunocytochemical observations showed that apical-NHE3 MR cells were enlarged, and frequently formed multicellular complexes with developed deep apical openings in acidic freshwater with 0mM and 50mM NaCl. These findings suggest that gill MR cells respond to external salinity and pH treatments, by parallel manipulation of osmoregulatory and acid-base regulatory mechanisms. 相似文献

Isolated salivary glands of Periplaneta americana were used to measure secretion rates and, by quantitative capillary electrophoresis, Na(+), K(+), and Cl(-) concentrations in saliva collected during dopamine (1 micro M) and serotonin (1 micro M) stimulation in the absence and presence of ouabain (100 micro M) or bumetanide (10 micro M). Dopamine stimulated secretion of a NaCl-rich hyposmotic saliva containing (mM): Na(+) 95 +/- 2; K(+) 38 +/- 1; Cl(-) 145 +/- 3. Saliva collected during serotonin stimulation had a similar composition. Bumetanide decreased secretion rates induced by dopamine and serotonin; secreted saliva had lower Na(+), K(+) and Cl(-) concentrations and osmolarity. Ouabain caused increased secretion rates on a serotonin background. Saliva secreted during dopamine but not serotonin stimulation in the presence of ouabain had lower K(+) and higher Na(+) and Cl(-) concentrations, and was isosmotic. We concluded: The Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl(-) cotransporter is of cardinal importance for electrolyte and fluid secretion. The Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase contributes to apical Na(+) outward transport and Na(+) and K(+) cycling across the basolateral membrane in acinar P-cells. The salivary ducts modify the primary saliva by Na(+) reabsorption and K(+) secretion, whereby Na(+) reabsorption is energized by the basolateral Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase which imports also some of the K(+) needed for apical K(+) extrusion. 相似文献

Hyperosmotic and isosmotic shrinkage differentially affect protein phosphorylation and ion transport
Koltsova SV Akimova OA Kotelevtsev SV Grygorczyk R Orlov SN 《Canadian journal of physiology and pharmacology》2012,90(2):209-217
In the present work, we compared the outcome of hyperosmotic and isosmotic shrinkage on ion transport and protein phosphorylation in C11-MDCK cells resembling intercalated cells from collecting ducts and in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) from the rat aorta. Hyperosmotic shrinkage was triggered by cell exposure to hypertonic medium, whereas isosmotic shrinkage was evoked by cell transfer from an hypoosmotic to an isosmotic environment. Despite a similar cell volume decrease of 40%-50%, the consequences of hyperosmotic and isosmotic shrinkage on cellular functions were sharply different. In C11-MDCK and VSMC, hyperosmotic shrinkage completely inhibited Na(+),K(+)-ATPase and Na(+),P(i) cotransport. In contrast, in both types of cells isosmotic shrinkage slightly increased rather than suppressed Na(+),K(+)-ATPase and did not change Na(+),P(i) cotransport. In C11-MDCK cells, phosphorylation of JNK1/2 and Erk1/2 mitogen-activated protein kinases was augmented in hyperosmotically shrunken cells by ~7- and 2-fold, respectively, but was not affected in cells subjected to isosmotic shrinkage. These results demonstrate that the data obtained in cells subjected to hyperosmotic shrinkage cannot be considered as sufficient proof implicating cell volume perturbations in the regulation of cellular functions under isosmotic conditions. 相似文献

In this study, we aimed to establish an experimental model to study the role of the gill mitochondrion-rich cells (MRCs) of freshwater fish in Na(+) uptake and to examine the effect of adjusting external Na(+) and Cl(-) ions on selected ion transporters in gill MRCs. Japanese eels (Anguilla japonica) acclimated to deionized (DI) water for 2 weeks were transferred directly to (a) ion-supplemented artificial freshwater (AF), (b) Na(+) -deficient AF, or (c) Cl(-) -deficient AF for 2 days. The effects of the transfer on the expression levels of ion transporters in isolated gill cells were investigated. Our data demonstrated that the 2-day acclimation in ion-supplemented AF, Na(+) -deficient AF, or Cl(-) -deficient AF led to a significant increase in serum osmolarity attributed mainly to an increase in serum Na(+) and/or Cl(-) levels when compared with DI-acclimated eel. Significant inductions of V-type H(+) -ATPase (V-H(+) -ATPase) and cotransporter (NBC1) mRNA expression in gill MRCs were detected in AF-acclimated fish. In fish acclimated to Na(+) -deficient AF, mRNA expression levels of V-H(+) -ATPase, NBC1, and Na(+) /H(+) -exchanger-3 (NHE3) were significantly increased in MRCs. Fish acclimated to Cl(-) -deficient AF showed no observable change in expression levels of ion transporters in gill MRCs. In addition, expression levels of ion transporters in pavement cells were stable throughout the 2-day experiments. These data indicate that the level of Na(+) in freshwater is important for altering the mRNA expression of ion transporters in gill MRCs, which supports the notion that gill MRCs play important roles in freshwater Na(+) uptake. 相似文献

Adaptations to combined salinity and waterlogging stress were evaluated in two Suaeda salsa populations from different saline environments. Seedlings were exposed to 1, 200 and 600 mM NaCl in drained or waterlogged sand for 22 days in a glasshouse. Waterlogging did not significantly affect the K(+) /Na(+) ratio or Cl(-) concentration in leaves of either population. Adventitious roots were produced only by the inland population and under the waterlogged condition. X-ray microanalysis showed that S. salsa roots of the intertidal population accumulated more [Na(+) ] and [Cl(-) ] in both the cortex and stele than the roots of the inland population. The ability of roots to exclude Na(+) and Cl(-) was greater in the intertidal population than in the inland population, which may explain why leaves of the intertidal population accumulated less Na(+) and Cl(-) than the leaves of the inland population. The lower level of Cl(-) than Na(+) in leaves of both populations may result from the greater ability of roots to exclude Cl(-) than Na(+) . These traits may help the two S. salsa populations adapt to their different saline environments. 相似文献

In this study, the correlation between Cl(-) influx in freshwater tilapia and various transporters or enzymes, the Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchanger, Na(+),K(+)-ATPase, V-type H(+)-ATPase, and carbonic anhydrase were examined. The inhibitors 2x10(-4) M ouabain (a Na(+),K(+)-ATPase inhibitor), 10(-5) M NEM (a V-type H(+)-ATPase inhibitor), 10(-2) M ACTZ (acetazolamide, a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor), and 6x10(-4) M DIDS (a Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchanger inhibitor) caused 40%, 60%-80%, 40%-60%, and 40%-60% reduction in Cl(-) influx of freshwater tilapia, respectively. The inhibitor 2x10(-4) M ouabain also caused 50%-65% inhibition in gill Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity. Western blot results showed that protein levels of gill Na(+),K(+)-ATPase, V-type H(+)-ATPase, and carbonic anhydrase in tilapia acclimated in low-Cl(-) freshwater were significantly higher than those acclimated to high-Cl(-) freshwater. Based on these data, we conclude that Na(+),K(+)-ATPase, V-H(+)-ATPase, the Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchanger, and carbonic anhydrase may be involved in the active Cl(-) uptake mechanism in gills of freshwater-adapted tilapia. 相似文献

The resting membrane potential (V(m)) of isolated somatic longitudinal muscles of the earthworm Lumbricus terrestris was studied by glass microelectrodes. The inhibition of chloride permeability by low pH did not affect V(m) of the muscle fibers in isolated somatic longitudinal muscles of the earthworm Lumbricus terrestris which was -48.7 mV (inside negative) at pH 7.3 and -49.1 at pH 5.6. On the other hand, bathing the muscles in Cl(-) and Na(+)-free solutions, or application of the chloride transporter inhibitor furosemide and Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase inhibitor ouabain depolarized the V(m) by 3-5 mV. The effects of a Cl(-) -free solution and ouabain were not additive. This demonstrates relatively small contribution of equilibrium potential for Cl(-) to the resting membrane potential and electrogenic effect of Na(+)K(+)-ATPase which is dependent on the supply of Na(+)(i) ions by furosemide-sensitive and Cl(-)(e)- and Na(+)(e)-dependent electroneutral transport (most probably Na(+)K(+)Cl(-) cotransport). 相似文献

In isosmotic conditions, insulin stimulation of PI 3-K/Akt and p38 MAPK pathways in skeletal muscle inhibits Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl(-) cotransporter (NKCC) activity induced by the ERK1,2 MAPK pathway. Whether these signaling cascades contribute to NKCC regulation during osmotic challenge is unknown. Increasing osmolarity by 20 mosM with either glucose or mannitol induced NKCC-mediated (86)Rb uptake and water transport into rat soleus and plantaris skeletal muscle in vitro. This NKCC activity restored intracellular water. In contrast to mannitol, hyperosmolar glucose increased ERK1,2 and p38 MAPK phosphorylation. Glucose, but not mannitol, impaired insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of Akt and p38 MAPK in the plantaris and soleus muscles, respectively. Hyperosmolarity-induced NKCC activation was insensitive to insulin action and pharmacological inhibition of ERK1,2 and p38 MAPK pathways. Paradoxically, cAMP-producing agents, which stimulate NKCC activity in isosmotic conditions, suppressed hyperosmolar glucose- and mannitol-induced NKCC activity and prevented restoration of muscle cell volume in hyperosmotic media. These results indicate that NKCC activity helps restore muscle cell volume during hyperglycemia. Moreover, hyperosmolarity activates NKCC regulatory pathways that are insensitive to insulin inhibition. 相似文献
