The inability to account for large systematic variations in total purine nucleotide content of perfused rat hearts led to the demonstration that the soluble adenine nucleotides are in rapid equilibrium with a highly phosphorylated hetero-oligomeric derivative whose structure appears to be 3-phospho[glyceroyl-gamma-triphospho-5'-adenosine-3'-3-phosp ho]4glyceroyl- gamma-triphospho-5'-adenosine [Hutchinson, Morris & Mowbray (1986) Biochem. J. 234, 623-627]. Analogous techniques to those used with hearts for specifically labelling tissue purine nucleotides followed by extration and purification of nucleotides from the trichloroacetic acid-precipitable fraction show the existence of a corresponding rapid equilibrium between ATP and an oligomeric tetraphosphoadenosine derivative in perfused kidneys. 相似文献

The effects of apelin-12, a 12 amino acid peptide (H-Arg-Pro-Arg-Leu-Ser-His-Lys-Gly-Pro-Met-Pro-Phe-OH, A-12), on recovery
of energy metabolism and cardiac function have been studied in isolated working rat hearts perfused with Krebs buffer (KB)
containing 11 mM glucose and subjected to global ischemia and reperfusion. Infusion of 140 μM A-12 before ischemia enhanced
myocardial ATP, the total pool of adenine nucleotides (ΣAN = ATP+ADP+AMP) and the energy charge of cardiomyocytes ((ATP +
0.5ADP)/ΣAN) at the end of reperfusion compared with control (KB infusion) and decreased lactate content and lactate/pyruvate
ratio in the reperfused myocardium up to the initial values. This was accompanied by improved recovery of coronary flow and
cardiac function. Co-administration of A-12 and 100 μM L-NAME (an inhibitor of NO synthases) significantly attenuated the
A-12 effects on metabolic and functional recovery of reperfused hearts. These results indicate involvement of NO in mechanisms
of cardioprotection that are tightly associated with recovery of energy metabolism in the postischemic heart. 相似文献

The myocardial ATP concentration is significantly decreased in failing hearts, which may be related to the progressive loss of the myocardial total adenine nucleotide pool. The total myocardial interstitial purine metabolites (IPM) in the dialysate of interstitial fluid could reflect the tissue ATP depletion. In rats, postmyocardial infarction (MI) left ventricular (LV) remodeling was induced by ligation of the coronary artery. Cardiac microdialysis was employed to assess changes of IPM in response to graded beta-adrenergic stimulation with isoproterenol (Iso) in myocardium of hearts with post-MI LV remodeling (MI group) or hearts with sham operation (sham group). The dialysate samples were analyzed for adenosine, inosine, hypoxanthine, xanthine, and uric acid. LV volume was greater in the MI group (2.2 +/- 0.2 ml/kg) compared with the sham group (1.3 +/- 0.2 ml/kg, P < 0.05). Infarct size was 28 +/- 4%. The baseline dialysate level of uric acid was higher in the MI group (18.9 +/- 3.4 micromol) compared with the sham group (4.6 +/- 0.7 micromol, P < 0.01). During and after Iso infusion, the dialysate levels of adenosine, xanthine, and uric acid were all significantly higher in the MI group. Thus the level of IPM is increased in hearts with postinfarction LV remodeling both at baseline and during Iso infusion. These results suggest that the decreased myocardial ATP level in hearts with post-MI LV remodeling may be caused by the chronic depletion of the total adenine nucleotide pool. 相似文献

Extracellular adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) and its breakdown products, adenosine 5′-diphosphate (ADP) and adenosine, have
significant effects on a variety of biological processes. NTPDase enzymes, responsible for adenine nucleotides hydrolysis,
are considered the major regulators of purinergic signaling in the blood. Previous work by our group demonstrated that ATP
and ADP hydrolysis in rat blood serum are higher during the dark (activity) phase compared to the light (rest) phase. In nocturnal
animals (e.g., rats), important physiological changes occur during the dark phase, such as increased circulating levels of
melatonin, corticosterone, and norepinephrine (NE). This study investigated the physiological effects, in vivo and in vitro,
of melatonin, dexamethasone, and NE upon nucleotides hydrolysis in rat blood serum. For in vivo experiments, the animals received
a single injection of saline (control), melatonin (0.05 mg/kg), dexamethasone (0.1 mg/kg), or NE (0.03 mg/kg). For in vitro
experiments, melatonin (1.0 nM), dexamethasone (1.0 μM), or NE (1.0 nM) was added directly to the reaction medium with blood
serum before starting the enzyme assay. The results demonstrated that ATP and ADP hydrolysis in both in vitro and in vivo
experiments were significantly higher with NE treatment compared to control (in vitro: ATP = 36.63%, ADP = 22.43%, P < 0.05; in vivo: ATP = 44.1%, ADP = 37.28%, P < 0.001). No significant differences in adenine nucleotides hydrolysis were observed with melatonin and dexamethasone treatments.
This study suggests a modulatory role of NE in the nucleotidases pathway, decreasing extracellular ATP and ADP, and suggests
that NE might modulate its own release by increasing the activities of soluble nucleotidases. 相似文献

Allopurinol Enhances Adenine Nucleotide Levels and Improves Myocardial Function in Isolated Hypoxic Rat Heart 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Allopurinol, a competitive inhibitor of xanthine oxidase, was found to have a protective effect on ischemic myocardium. Its mechanism of action is still controversial. We used Langendorff isolated rat heart preparation to test the hypothesis that allopurinol could maintain a level of the adenine nucleotide pool (ATP, ADP, and AMP) that would protect and improve the functional activity of the heart during a period of hypoxia. Hearts were initially perfused for 30 min until steady state was attained. This was followed by 20 min of experimental perfusion divided into 5 min of control perfusion followed by 15 min of hypoxic perfusion with or without allopurinol in the perfusate. Hearts were quick-frozen and enzymatically analyzed for adenine nucleotides and creatine phosphate at the end of the hypoxic period. Left ventricular pressure, heart rate, and coronary flow were measured in all preparations. Allopurinol (0.1 mM) treated hearts had greater levels of ATP (12.3 ± 0.8 vs. 9.3 ± 0.8 µmol/g dry weight; p < 0.01). This improvement occurred in the presence as well as the absence of glucose. Total adenine nucleotides improved from 17 ± 1 to 20.3 ± 2.4 µmol/g dry weight (p < 0.01). This improvement also occurred in the presence as well as in the absence of glucose in the perfusate. It also improved cell energy state significantly in the presence as well as the absence of glucose. There was insignificant change in creatine phosphate. Allopurinol improved left ventricular pressure from 38 ± 7% to 55 ± 9% (p < 0.002) in the presence of glucose and from 8 ± 3% to 27 ± 6.3% (p < 0.001) in the absence of glucose. Coronary flow improved from 110 ± 5% to 120 ± 8% (p < 0.04) in the presence of glucose. These results support the suggestion that allopurinol at 0.1 mM exerts its protective effect on rat heart during hypoxia by enhancing the adenine nucleotide pool. 相似文献

Fluxes catalyzed by soluble creatine kinase (MM) in equilibrium in vitro and by the creatine kinase system in perfused rat hearts were studied by 31P-NMR saturation transfer method. It was found that in vitro both forward and reverse fluxes through creatine kinase at equilibrium were almost equal and very stable to changes in
ratio (from 0.2 to 3.0) as well as to changes in pH (from 7.4 to 6.5 or 8.1), free Mg2+ concentration and 2-fold decrease of total adenine nucleotides and creatine pools (from 8.0 to 4.0 mM and from 30 to 14 mM, respectively). In the rat hearts perfused by the Langendorff method the creatine kinase-catalyzed flux from phosphocreatine to ATP was increased by 50% when oxygen consumption grew from 8 to 55 μmol/min per g of dry wt. due to transition from rest to high workload. These changes could not be exclusively explained on the basis of the equilibrium model by activation of heart creatine kinase due to some decrease in
ratio (from 1.8 to 0.8) observed during transition from rest to high workload. Analysis of our data showed that an increase in the flux via creatine kinase is correlated with an increase in the rate of ATP synthesis with a linearity coefficient higher than 1.0. These data are more consistent with the concept of energy channeling by phosphocreatine shuttle than with that of the creatine kinase equilibrium in the heart. 相似文献

The effects of insulin and increased cardiac work on glycolytic rate, metabolite content, and fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (Fru-2,6-P2) content were studied in isolated perfused rat hearts. Steady-state rates of glycolysis increased 5-fold with the addition of insulin to the perfusate or by increasing cardiac pressure-volume work and correlated well in most conditions with changes in substrate concentration (Fru-6-P) and with concentration of the activator, Fru-2,6-P2. There was no correlation with changes in other well known regulators including citrate, ATP, AMP, Pi, or cytosolic phosphorylation potential. Using phosphofructokinase purified from hearts perfused under identical conditions, allosteric kinetic experiments were performed using the metabolite and effector concentrations determined from in vivo experiments. Reaction rates for phosphofructokinase calculated in vitro agreed well with the glycolytic rates measured in vivo and correlated with changes in Fru-6-P but not with other effectors. However, higher Fru-2,6-P2 levels were more effective in maintaining phosphofructokinase activity at high ATP and citrate levels. Kinetic experiments did not indicate a covalent modification of phosphofructokinase. These data indicate that control of cardiac phosphofructokinase and glycolysis may be accomplished by changes in the availability of substrate, Fru-6-P, and activator, Fru-2,6-P2, rather than by citrate, adenine nucleotides, or cytosolic phosphorylation potential as previously suggested. 相似文献

The inability to account for large systematic variations with time in soluble adenine nucleotides in perfused rat hearts [Bates, Perrett & Mowbray (1978) Biochem. J. 176, 485-493; Mowbray, Bates & Perrett (1981) FEBS Lett. 131, 55-59; Mowbray, Perrett & Bates (1984) Int. J. Biochem. 16, 889-894] led us to show that the soluble nucleotides are in rapid equilibrium with some hitherto unrecognized trichloroacetic acid/methanol-precipitable highly phosphorylated heteropolymeric form [Mowbray, Hutchinson, Tibbs & Morris (1984) Biochem. J. 223, 627-632]. Selective digestion coupled to chromatographic analysis together with m.s. and 31P-n.m.r. spectrometry have now been used to show that the likely structure for a purified oligomer that is in specific-radioactivity equilibrium with tissue ATP is 3-phospho-[glyceroyl-gamma-triphosphoroyl-5'-adenosine-3'-3- phospho]4 glyceroyl-gamma-triphosphoroyl-5'-adenosine. 相似文献

Adenine nucleotides and respiration were assayed with rat kidney mitochondria depleted of adenine nucleotides by pyrophosphate treatment and by normothermic ischemia, respectively, with the aim of identifying net uptake of ATP as well as elucidating the contribution of adenine nucleotide loss to the ischemic impairment of oxidative phosphorylation. Treatment of rat kidney mitochondria with pyrophosphate caused a loss of adenine nucleotides as well as a decrease of state 3 respiration. After incubation of pyrophosphate-treated mitochondria with ATP, Mg2+ and phosphate, the content of adenine nucleotides increased. We propose that kidney mitochondria possess a mechanism for net uptake of ATP. Restoration of a normal content of matrix adenine nucleotides was related to full recovery of the rate of state 3 respiration. A hyperbolic relationship between the matrix content of adenine nucleotides and the rate of state 3 respiration was observed. Mitochondria isolated from kidneys exposed to normothermic ischemia were characterized by a decrease in the content of adenine nucleotides as well as in state 3 respiration. Incubation of ischemic mitochondria with ATP, Mg2+ and phosphate restored the content of adenine nucleotides to values measured in freshly-isolated mitochondria. State 3 respiration of ischemic mitochondria reloaded with ATP recovered only partially. The rate of state 3 respiration increased by ATP-reloading approached that of uncoupler-stimulated respiration measured with ischemic mitochondria. These findings suggest that the decrease of matrix adenine nucleotides contributes to the impairment of ischemic mitochondria as well as underlining the occurrence of additional molecular changes of respiratory chain limiting the oxidative phosphorylation. 相似文献

Belke, Darrell D., Lawrence C. H. Wang, and Gary D. Lopaschuk. Effects of hypothermia on energy metabolism in rat and Richardson's ground squirrel hearts. J. Appl.Physiol. 82(4): 1210-1218, 1997.Glycolysis,glucose oxidation, palmitate oxidation, and cardiac function weremeasured in isolated working hearts from ground squirrels and ratssubjected to a hypothermia-rewarming protocol. Hearts wereperfused initially for 30 min at 37°C, followed by 2 h ofhypothermic perfusion at 15°C, after which hearts were rewarmed to37°C and further perfused for 30 min. Functional recovery in groundsquirrel hearts was greater than in rat hearts after rewarming.Hypothermia-rewarming had a similar general effect on the variousmetabolic pathways in both species. Despite these similarities, totalenergy substrate metabolic rates were greater in rat than groundsquirrel hearts during hypothermia despite a lower level of work beingperformed by the rat hearts, indicating that rat hearts are lessefficient than ground squirrel hearts during hypothermia.After rewarming, energy substrate metabolism recovered completely inboth species, although cardiac work remained depressed in rat hearts.The difference in functional recovery between rat and ground squirrelhearts after rewarming cannot be explained by general differences inenergy substrate metabolism during hypothermia or after rewarming. 相似文献

Using patch- and carbon-fiber electrodes, we studied release phenomena of adenine nucleotides and serotonin from megakaryocytes isolated from the bone marrow of the mouse. Megakaryocytes express ionotropic purinergic receptors on their surfaces. Under the condition of whole cell recording, the cells showed spikelike spontaneous inward currents. The spontaneous currents were carried by cations and had amplitudes of 30800 pA at 43 mV and durations of 0.10.3 s. Pyridoxalphosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulfonic acid (PPADS; 100 µM) and suramin (100 µM), purinoceptor-blocking agents, depressed the currents reversibly. It is thought that the receptor involved was the P2X1 subtype on the cell and that the currents were due to activation of the P2X1 receptor by adenine nucleotides released from the cell. The currents showed a skewed amplitude distribution, suggesting variation of vesicular contents and/or distinct localization or varied density of receptors on the cell. Frequency of the spontaneous inward currents was enhanced by external application of platelet-activating substances, thrombin (0.4 U/ml), phorbol ester (100 nM), and ADP (2 µM), at low concentrations. With a carbon-fiber electrode, which can detect oxidizable substances including serotonin, spikelike oxidation currents from the external surface of the megakaryocyte were detected. The frequency of the oxidation currents increased remarkably after the application of thrombin (10 U/ml). The majority of the oxidation currents coincided with the rising phase of the whole cell currents, suggesting corelease of serotonin and adenine nucleotide from the same vesicle. We concluded that megakaryocytes store adenine nucleotides and serotonin in the same vesicle and release them simultaneously in a discrete manner. ADP; ATP; serotonin; patch clamp; P2X1 receptor 相似文献

1. In the isolated perfused rat heart, the contractile activity and the oxygen uptake were varied by altering the aortic perfusion pressure, or by the atrial perfusion technique (;working heart'). 2. The maximum increase in the contractile activity brought about an eightfold increase in the oxygen uptake. The rate of glycolytic flux rose, while tissue contents of hexose monophosphates, citrate, ATP and creatine phosphate decreased, and contents of ADP and AMP rose. 3. The changes in tissue contents of adenine nucleotides during increased heart work were time-dependent. The ATP content fell temporarily (30s and 2min) after the start of left-atrial perfusion; at 5 and 10min values were normal; and at 30 and 60min values were decreased. ADP and AMP values were increased in the first 15min, but were at control values 30 or 60min after the onset of increased heart work. 4. During increased heart work changes in the tissue contents of adenine nucleotide and of citrate appeared to play a role in altered regulation of glycolysis at the level of phosphofructokinase activity. 5. In recirculation experiments increased heart work for 30min was associated with increased entry of [(14)C]glucose (11.1mm) and glycogen into glycolysis and a comparable increase in formation of products of glycolysis (lactate, pyruvate and (14)CO(2)). There was no major accumulation of intermediates. Glycogen was not a major fuel for respiration. 6. Increased glycolytic flux in Langendorff perfused and working hearts was obtained by the addition of insulin to the perfusion medium. The concomitant increases in the tissue values of hexose phosphates and of citrate contrasted with the decreased values of hexose monophosphates and of citrate during increased glycolytic flux obtained by increased heart work. 7. Decreased glycolytic flux in Langendorff perfused hearts was obtained by using acute alloxan-diabetic and chronic streptozotocin-diabetic rats; in the latter condition there were decreased tissue contents of hexose phosphates and of citrate. There were similar findings when working hearts from streptozotocin-diabetic rats with insulin added to the medium were compared with normal hearts. 8. The effects of insulin addition or of the chronic diabetic state could be explained in terms of an action of insulin on glucose transport. Increased heart work also acted at this site, but in addition there was evidence for altered regulation of glycolysis mediated by changes in tissue contents of adenine nucleotides or of citrate. 相似文献

P2 purinoceptors regulate calcium-activated chloride and fluid transport in 31EG4 mammary epithelia 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

It has been reported thatsecretory mammary epithelial cells (MEC) release ATP, UTP, and UDP uponmechanical stimulation. Here we examined the physiological changescaused by ATP/UTP in nontransformed, clonal mouse mammary epithelia(31EG4 cells). In control conditions, transepithelial potential (apicalside negative) and resistance were 4.4 ± 1.3 mV (mean ± SD, n = 12) and 517.7 ± 39.4 · cm2, respectively. The apicalmembrane potential was 43.9 ± 1.7 mV, and the ratio of apicalto basolateral membrane resistance (RA/RB) was 3.5 ± 0.2. Addition of ATP or UTP to the apical or basolateral membranescaused large voltage and resistance changes with an EC50 of~24 µM (apical) and ~30 µM (basal). Apical ATP/UTP (100 µM)depolarized apical membrane potential by 17.6 ± 0.8 mV (n = 7) and decreasedRA/RB by a factor of3. The addition of adenosine to either side (100 µM) hadno effect on any of these parameters. The ATP/UTP responses werepartially inhibited by DIDS and suramin and mediated by a transientincrease in free intracellular Ca2+ concentration (427 ± 206 nM; 15-25 µM ATP, apical; n = 6). This Ca2+ increase was blocked by cyclopiazonic acid, by BAPTA,or by xestospongin C. 31EG4 MEC monolayers also secreted or absorbedfluid in the resting state, and ATP or UTP increased fluid secretion by5.6 ± 3 µl · cm2 · h1(n = 10). Pharmacology experiments indicate that 31EG4epithelia contain P2Y2 purinoceptors on the apical andbasolateral membranes, which upon activation stimulate apicalCa2+-dependent Cl channels and cause fluid secretion acrossthe monolayer. This suggests that extracellular nucleotides could playa fundamental role in mammary gland paracrine signaling and theregulation of milk composition in vivo. 相似文献

We used the microdialysis technique to measurethe interstitial concentration of several putative metabolic stimulantsof the exercise pressor reflex during 3- and 5-Hz twitch contractions in the decerebrate cat. The peak increases in heart rate and mean arterial pressure during contraction were 20 ± 5 beats/min and 21 ± 8 mmHg and 27 ± 9 beats/min and 37 ± 12 mmHg for the 3- and 5-Hz stimulation protocols, respectively. All variables returned tobaseline after 10 min of recovery. Interstitial lactate rose (P < 0.05) by 0.41 ± 0.15 and0.56 ± 0.16 mM for the 3- and 5-Hz stimulation protocols,respectively, and were not statistically different from one another.Interstitial lactate levels remained above(P < 0.05) baseline during recoveryin the 5-Hz group. Dialysate phosphate concentrations (corrected forshifts in probe recovery) rose with stimulation(P < 0.05) by 0.19 ± 0.08 and0.11 ± 0.03 mM for the 3- and 5-Hz protocols. There were nodifferences between groups. The resting dialysateK+ concentrations for the 3- and5-Hz conditions were 4.0 ± 0.1 and 3.9 ± 0.1 meq/l,respectively. During stimulation the dialysate K+ concentrations rose steadilyfor both conditions, and the increase from rest to stimulation(P < 0.05) was 0.57 ± 0.19 and0.81 ± 0.06 meq/l for the 3- and 5-Hz conditions, respectively,with no differences between groups. Resting dialysate pH was6.915 ± 0.055 and 6.981 ± 0.032 and rose to 7.013 (P < 0.05) and 7.053 (P < 0.05) for the 3- and 5-Hzconditions, respectively, and then became acidotic (6.905, P < 0.05) during recovery (5 Hzonly). This study represents the first time simultaneous measurements of multiple skeletal muscle interstitial metabolites and pressor responses to twitch contractions have been made in the cat. These datasuggest that interstitial K+ andphosphate, but not lactate and H+,may contribute to the stimulation of thin fiber muscle afferents duringcontraction. 相似文献

The adenine nucleotides ADP and ATP are probably the most important endogenous inhibitors of the mitochondrial permeability
transition (MPT). We studied the inhibitory effects of adenine nucleotides on brain MPT by measuring mitochondrial swelling
and Ca2+ and cytochrome c release. We observed that in the presence of either ADP or ATP, at 250 μM, brain mitochondria accumulated more than 1 μmol
Ca2+ × mg protein−1. ADP or ATP also prevented Ca2+-induced mitochondrial swelling and cytochrome c release. Interestingly, ATP lost most of its inhibitory effects on MPT when the experiments were carried out in the presence
of ATP-regenerating systems. These results indicate that MPT inhibition observed in the presence of added ATP could be mainly
due to hydrolysis of ATP to ADP. From mitochondrial swelling measurements, half-maximal inhibitory values (K
i) of 4.5 and 98 μM were obtained for ADP and ATP, respectively. In addition, a delayed mitochondrial swelling sensitive to
higher ADP concentrations was observed. Mitochondrial anoxia/reoxygenation did not interfere with the inhibitory effect of
ADP on Ca2+-induced MPT, but oxidative phosphorylation markedly decreased this effect. We conclude that ADP is a potent inhibitor of
brain MPT whereas ATP is a weaker inhibitor of this phenomenon. Our results suggest that ADP can have an important protective
role against MPT-mediated tissue damage under conditions of brain ischemia and hypoglycemia. 相似文献

1. The regulatory effects that adenine nucleotides are known to exert on enzymes of glycolysis and gluconeogenesis were demonstrated to operate in kidney-cortex slices and in the isolated perfused rat kidney by the addition of exogenous ATP, ADP and AMP to the incubation or perfusion media. 2. Both preparations rapidly converted added ATP into ADP and AMP, and ADP into AMP; added AMP was rapidly dephosphorylated. AMP formed from ATP was dephosphorylated at a lower rate than was added AMP, especially when the initial ATP concentration was high (10mm). Deamination of added AMP occurred more slowly than dephosphorylation of AMP. 3. Gluconeogenesis from lactate or propionate by rat kidney-cortex slices, and from lactate by the isolated perfused rat kidney, was inhibited by the addition of adenine nucleotides to the incubation or perfusion media. In contrast, oxygen consumption and the utilization of propionate or lactate by slices were not significantly affected by added ATP or AMP. 4. The extent and rapidity of onset of the inhibition of renal gluconeogenesis were proportional to the AMP concentration in the medium and the tissue, and were not due to the production of acid or P(i) or the formation of complexes with Mg(2+) ions. 5. Glucose uptake by kidney-cortex slices was stimulated 30-50% by added ATP, but the extra glucose removed was not oxidized to carbon dioxide and did not all appear as lactate. Glucose uptake, but not lactate production, by the isolated perfused kidney was also stimulated by the addition of ATP or AMP. 6. In the presence of either glucose or lactate, ATP and AMP greatly increased the concentrations of C(3) phosphorylated intermediates and fructose 1,6-diphosphate in the kidney. There was a simultaneous rise in the concentration of malate and fall in the concentration of alpha-oxoglutarate. 7. The effects of added adenine nucleotides on renal carbohydrate metabolism seem to be mainly due to an increased concentration of intracellular AMP, which inhibits fructose diphosphatase and deinhibits phosphofructokinase. This conclusion is supported by the accumulation of intermediates of the glycolytic pathway between fructose diphosphate and pyruvate. 8. ATP or ADP (10mm) added to the medium perfusing an isolated rat kidney temporarily increased the renal vascular resistance, greatly diminishing the flow rate of perfusion medium for a period of several minutes. 相似文献

Interstitial concentrations of adenine nucleotide breakdown products (ANBP)--adenosine (ADS), inosine (INS), hypoxanthine (HYP), in perfused rat hearts were measured during total ischemia and reperfusion by microdialysis technique. Progressive accumulation of ANBP in the interstitial space was observed during ischemia, but unlike INS and HYP, maximal ADS concentration was reached not by the end of ischemia but after the beginning of reperfusion. During reperfusion the qualitative accordance between changes in ANBP levels in the interstitial space and venous effluent was observed, but interstitial concentrations were several times greater. 相似文献

Background and methods Perturbations in energetic metabolism and impaired atrial contractility may play an important role in the pathogenesis of atrial fibrillation (AF). Besides, atrial stretch is commonly associated with AF. However, the atrial energetics of stretch-related AF are poorly understood. Here, we measured indicators of energy metabolism during acute stretch-related AF. PCr, adenine nucleotides, and derivatives concentrations as well as the activity of the F0F1-ATPase and Na,K-ATPase were obtained after 1 h of stretch and/or AF in isolated rabbit hearts and compared to control hearts without stretch and AF. Results After 1 h of stretch-related AF, the total adenine nucleotides’ pool was significantly lower (42.2 ± 2.6 vs. 63.7 ± 8.3 μmol/g protein in control group, P < 0.05) and the PCr/ATP ratio significantly higher (2.3 ± 0.3 vs. 1.1 ± 0.1 in control group P < 0.05), because of ATP, ADP, and AMP decrease and PCr increase. The sum of high-energy phosphate compounds did not change. There were no significant differences in F0F1-ATPase nor Na,K-ATPase activity between the groups. Conclusions Results show that in this experimental model, acute stretch-related AF induces specific modifications of atrial myocytes energetics that may play a pivotal role in the perpetuation of the arrhythmia. 相似文献

Infusion of adenine nucleotides and adenosine into perfused rat livers resulted in stimulation of hepatic glycogenolysis, transient increases in the effluent perfusate [3-hydroxybutyrate]/[acetoacetate] ratio, and increased portal vein pressure. In livers perfused with buffer containing 50 microM-Ca2+, transient efflux of Ca2+ was seen on stimulation of the liver with adenine nucleotides or adenosine. ADP was the most potent of the nucleotides, stimulating glucose output at concentrations as low as 0.15 microM, with half-maximal stimulation at approx. 1 microM, and ATP was slightly less potent, half-maximal stimulation requiring 4 microM-ATP. AMP and adenosine were much less effective, doses giving half-maximal stimulation being 40 and 20 microM respectively. Non-hydrolysed ATP analogues were much less effective than ATP in promoting changes in hepatic metabolism. ITP, GTP and GDP caused similar changes in hepatic metabolism to ATP, but were 10-20 times less potent than ATP. In livers perfused at low (7 microM) Ca2+, infusion of phenylephrine before ATP desensitized hepatic responses to ATP. Repeated infusions of ATP in such low-Ca2+-perfused livers caused homologous desensitization of ATP responses, and also desensitized subsequent Ca2+-dependent responses to phenylephrine. A short infusion of Ca2+ (1.25 mM) after phenylephrine infusion restored subsequent responses to ATP, indicating that, during perfusion with buffer containing 7 microM-Ca2+, ATP and phenylephrine deplete the same pool of intracellular Ca2+, which can be rapidly replenished in the presence of extracellular Ca2+. Measurement of cyclic AMP in freeze-clamped liver tissue demonstrated that adenosine (150 microM) significantly increased hepatic cyclic AMP, whereas ATP (15 microM) was without effect. It is concluded that ATP and ADP stimulate hepatic glycogenolysis via P2-purinergic receptors, through a Ca2+-dependent mechanism similar to that in alpha-adrenergic stimulation of hepatic tissue. However, adenosine stimulates glycogenolysis via P1-purinoreceptors and/or uptake into the cell, at least partially through a mechanism involving increase in cyclic AMP. Further, the hepatic response to adenine nucleotides may be significant in regulating hepatic glucose output in physiological and pathophysiological states. 相似文献
