Recent studies indicate novel roles for the ubiquitous ion pump, Na,K-ATPase, in addition to its function as a key regulator of intracellular sodium and potassium concentration. We have previously demonstrated that ouabain, the endogenous ligand of Na,K-ATPase, can trigger intracellular Ca2+ oscillations, a versatile intracellular signal controlling a diverse range of cellular processes. Here we report that Na,K-ATPase and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) receptor (InsP3R) form a cell signaling microdomain that, in the presence of ouabain, generates slow Ca2+ oscillations in renal cells. Using fluorescent resonance energy transfer (FRET) measurements, we detected a close spatial proximity between Na,K-ATPase and InsP3R. Ouabain significantly enhanced FRET between Na,K-ATPase and InsP3R. The FRET effect and ouabain-induced Ca2+ oscillations were not observed following disruption of the actin cytoskeleton. Partial truncation of the NH2 terminus of Na,K-ATPase catalytic alpha1-subunit abolished Ca2+ oscillations and downstream activation of NF-kappaB. Ouabain-induced Ca2+ oscillations occurred in cells expressing an InsP3 sponge and were hence independent of InsP3 generation. Thus, we present a novel principle for a cell signaling microdomain where an ion pump serves as a receptor. 相似文献

We have shown that the caveolar Na/K-ATPase transmits ouabain signals via multiple signalplexes. To obtain the information on the composition of such complexes, we separated the Na/K-ATPase from the outer medulla of rat kidney into two different fractions by detergent treatment and density gradient centrifugation. Analysis of the light fraction indicated that both PLC-gamma1 and IP3 receptors (isoforms 2 and 3, IP3R2 and IP3R3) were coenriched with the Na/K-ATPase, caveolin-1 and Src. GST pulldown assays revealed that the central loop of the Na/K-ATPase alpha1 subunit interacts with PLC-gamma1, whereas the N-terminus binds IP3R2 and IP3R3, suggesting that the signaling Na/K-ATPase may tether PLC-gamma1 and IP3 receptors together to form a Ca(2+)-regulatory complex. This notion is supported by the following findings. First, both PLC-gamma1 and IP3R2 coimmunoprecipitated with the Na/K-ATPase and ouabain increased this interaction in a dose- and time-dependent manner in LLC-PK1 cells. Depletion of cholesterol abolished the effects of ouabain on this interaction. Second, ouabain induced phosphorylation of PLC-gamma1 at Tyr(783) and activated PLC-gamma1 in a Src-dependent manner, resulting in increased hydrolysis of PIP2. It also stimulated Src-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of the IP3R2. Finally, ouabain induced Ca(2+) release from the intracellular stores via the activation of IP3 receptors in LLC-PK1 cells. This effect required the ouabain-induced activation of PLC-gamma1. Inhibition of Src or depletion of cholesterol also abolished the effect of ouabain on intracellular Ca(2+). 相似文献

Mounting evidence suggests that the ion pump, Na,K-ATPase, can, in the presence of ouabain, act as a signal transducer. A prominent binding motif linking the Na,K-ATPase to intracellular signaling effectors has, however, not yet been identified. Here we report that the N-terminal tail of the Na,K-ATPase catalytic alpha-subunit (alphaNT-t) binds directly to the N terminus of the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor. Three amino acid residues, LKK, conserved in most species and most alpha-isoforms, are essential for the binding to occur. In wild-type cells, low concentrations of ouabain trigger low frequency calcium oscillations that activate NF-kappaB and protect from apoptosis. All of these effects are suppressed in cells overexpressing a peptide corresponding to alphaNT-t but not in cells overexpressing a peptide corresponding to alphaNT-t deltaLKK. Thus we have identified a well conserved Na,K-ATPase motif that binds to the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor and can trigger an anti-apoptotic calcium signal. 相似文献

We have observed that, in renal proximal tubular cells, cardiotonic steroids such as ouabain in vitro signal through Na/K-ATPase, which results in inhibition of transepithelial (22)Na(+) transport by redistributing Na/K-ATPase and NHE3. In the present study, we investigate the role of Na/K-ATPase signaling in renal sodium excretion and blood pressure regulation in vivo. In Sprague-Dawley rats, high salt diet activated c-Src and induced redistribution of Na/K-ATPase and NHE3 in renal proximal tubules. In Dahl salt sensitive (S) and resistant (R) rats given high dietary salt, we found different effects on blood pressure but, more interestingly, different effects on renal salt handling. These differences could be explained by different signaling through the proximal tubular Na/K-ATPase. Specifically, in Dahl R rats, high salt diet significantly stimulated phosphorylation of c-Src and ERK1/2, reduced Na/K-ATPase activity and NHE3 activity, and caused redistribution of Na/K-ATPase and NHE3. In contrast, these adaptations were either much less effective or not seen in the Dahl S rats. We also studied the primary culture of renal proximal tubule isolated from Dahl S and R rats fed a low salt diet. In this system, ouabain induced Na/K-ATPase/c-Src signaling and redistribution of Na/K-ATPase and NHE3 in the Dahl R rats, but not in the Dahl S rats. Our data suggested that impairment of Na/K-ATPase signaling and consequent regulation of Na/K-ATPase and NHE3 in renal proximal tubule may contribute to salt-induced hypertension in the Dahl S rat. 相似文献

Na,K-ATPase is a ubiquitous multifunctional protein that acts both as an ion pump and as a signal transducer. The signaling function is activated by ouabain in non-toxic concentrations. In epithelial cells the ouabain-bound Na,K-ATPase connects with the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor via a short linear motif to activate low frequency Ca2+ oscillations. Within a couple of minutes this ouabain mediated signal has resulted in phosphorylation or dephosphorylation of 2580 phospho-sites. Proteins that control cell proliferation and cell adhesion and calmodulin regulated proteins are enriched among the ouabain phosphor-regulated proteins. The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor and the stromal interaction molecule, which are both essential for the initiation of Ca2+ oscillations, belong to the ouabain phosphor-regulated proteins. Downstream effects of the ouabain-evoked Ca2+ signal in epithelial cells include interference with the intrinsic mitochondrial apoptotic process and stimulation of embryonic growth processes.The dual function of Na,K-ATPase as an ion pump and a signal transducer is now well established and evaluation of the physiological and pathophysiological consequences of this universal signal emerges as an urgent topic for future studies. 相似文献

Ouabain-stimulated trafficking regulation of the Na/K-ATPase and NHE3 in renal proximal tubule cells
Yan Y Haller S Shapiro A Malhotra N Tian J Xie Z Malhotra D Shapiro JI Liu J 《Molecular and cellular biochemistry》2012,367(1-2):175-183
We have demonstrated that ouabain regulates protein trafficking of the Na/K-ATPase α1 subunit and NHE3 (Na/H exchanger, isoform 3) via ouabain-activated Na/K-ATPase signaling in porcine LLC-PK1 cells. To investigate whether this mechanism is species-specific, ouabain-induced regulation of the α1 subunit and NHE3 as well as transcellular (22)Na(+) transport were compared in three renal proximal tubular cell lines (human HK-2, porcine LLC-PK1, and AAC-19 originated from LLC-PK1 in which the pig α1 was replaced by ouabain-resistant rat α1). Ouabain-induced inhibition of transcellular (22)Na(+) transport is due to an ouabain-induced redistribution of the α1 subunit and NHE3. In LLC-PK1 cells, ouabain also inhibited the endocytic recycling of internalized NHE3, but has no significant effect on recycling of endocytosed α1 subunit. These data indicated that the ouabain-induced redistribution of the α1 subunit and NHE3 is not a species-specific phenomenon, and ouabain-activated Na/K-ATPase signaling influences NHE3 regulation. 相似文献

Studies have reported that Na,K-ATPase interacts with E-cadherin to stabilize (AJs) and regulate the expression of claudins, the main proteins present in the tight junction (TJ) in epithelial cells containing caveolae. However, the role of this ATPase in the regulation of the AJ and TJ proteins in colorectal cancer cells as well as the molecular events underlying this event in a caveolae-independent system remain undefined. In the present study, we used ouabain, a classic drug known to inhibit Na,K-ATPase, and Caco-2 cells, which are a well-established human colorectal cancer model that does not exhibit caveolae. We demonstrated that ouabain treatment resulted in a reduction of the β1 Na,K-ATPase protein and cell redistribution of the AJ proteins E-cadherin and β-catenin, as well as the α1 Na,K-ATPase subunit. Furthermore, ouabain increased claudin-3 protein levels, impaired the TJ barrier function and increased cell viability and proliferation during the early stages of treatment. Additionally, the observed ouabain-induced events were dependent on the activation of ERK1/2 signaling; but in contrast to previous studies, this signaling cascade was caveolae-independent. In conclusion, our findings strongly suggest that α1 and β1 Na,K-ATPase downregulation and ERK1/2 activation induced by ouabain are interlinked events that play an important role during cell–cell adhesion loss, which is an important step during the tumor progression of colorectal carcinomas. 相似文献

Alanine substitutions were made for 15 amino acids in the cytoplasmic loop between transmembrane helices 6 and 7 (L6/7) of the human alpha(1)-subunit of Na,K-ATPase. Most mutations reduced Na,K-ATPase activity by less than 50%; however, the mutations R834A, R837A, and R848A reduced Na,K-ATPase activity by 75, 89, and 66%, respectively. Steady-state phosphoenzyme formation from ATP was reduced in mutants R834A, R837A, and R848A, and R837A also had a faster E(2)P --> E(2) dephosphorylation rate compared with the wild-type enzyme. Effects of L6/7 mutations on the phosphorylation domain of the protein were also demonstrated by (18)O exchange, which showed that intrinsic rate constants for P(i) binding and/or reaction with the protein were altered. Although most L6/7 mutations had no effect on the interaction of Na(+) or K(+) with Na,K-ATPase, the E825A, E828A, R834A, and R837A mutations reduced the apparent affinity of the enzyme for both Na(+) and K(+) by 1.5-3-fold. 1-Bromo-2,4,6-tris(methylisothiouronium)benzene (Br-TITU(3+)), a competitive antagonist of Rb(+) and Na(+) occlusion, was used to test whether charged residues in L6/7 are involved in binding monovalent cations and cation antagonists. Br-TITU(3+) inhibited ouabain binding to wild type Na,K-ATPase with an IC(50) of 30 microM. Ouabain binding to the E825A, E828A, R834A, or R837A mutants was still inhibited by Br-TITU(3+), indicating that Br-TITU(3+) does not bind to charged residues in L6/7. This observation makes it unlikely that L6/7 functions as a cytoplasmic cation binding site in Na,K-ATPase, and together with the effects of L6/7 mutations on phosphate interactions with the enzyme suggests that L6/7 is important in stabilizing the phosphorylation domain and its relationship to the ion binding sites of the protein. 相似文献

The cation-transporting activity and Na,K-ATPase activity of CV-1 cell recipients of the mouse ouabain resistance gene (ouaR6, or OR6 cells; see Levenson, R., Racaniello, V., Albritton, L., and Housman, D. (1984) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 81, 1489-1493) have been further characterized. OR6 cells grown in strophanthidin (a cardiac aglycon which may be removed rapidly from the Na,K-ATPase) possess both ouabain-sensitive and -insensitive 86Rb+ uptake activities. The ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake activity of these cells (OR6-S cells) exhibits the same Ki for ouabain as that of the CV-1 parent cells (Ki(app) = 3 x 10(-7) M ouabain), but accounts for only approximately 30% of total 86Rb+ uptake into Na+-loaded OR6-S cells, compared to 80% for CV-1 cells. Most of the ouabain-resistant 86Rb+ uptake in OR6-S cells is dependent on internal Na+ and is insensitive to furosemide, suggesting that it is due to an ouabain-resistant Na,K pump. In OR6-S cell lysates, 50% of Na+-dependent ATPase activity is insensitive to 1 mM ouabain, compared to less than 5% in CV-1 cell lysates. In addition, purified plasma membranes from OR6-S cells contain a 100-kDa protein which is transiently phosphorylated by ATP in an Na+-dependent, K+-sensitive manner, like the alpha subunit of the CV-1 Na,K-ATPase and the canine renal Na,K-ATPase, but which is unaffected by preincubation in 1 mM ouabain. All of these data suggest that OR6-S cells possess a ouabain-insensitive Na,K pump with characteristics similar to the ouabain-sensitive pump of CV-1 parent cells. Since the mouse ouabain resistance gene does not encode either subunit of the Na,K-ATPase, these results suggest that the ouabain resistance gene product may modify the ouabain sensitivity of the endogenous CV-1 Na,K pump. 相似文献

Ouabain is a specific inhibitor of sodium, potassium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase (Na,K-ATPase), a P-type ion-transporting ATPase which is essential for the maintenance of adequate concentrations of intracellular Na+ and K+ ions. The present study describes the establishment of a ouabain-resistant mutant, TLouaR, from a human trophoblast cell line TL. Morphologically TL and TLouaR are indistinguishable, but, TLouaR is about 1000 times more resistant to the cytotoxic effect of ouabain and > 2000 times to that of bufalin and yet ouabain can retard the growth of the TLouaR cells and in parallel reduce its cloning efficiency in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, Na,K-ATPase activity from TLouaR cells is inhibitable by ouabain albeit with lower efficiency. [3H]ouabain binding studies reveal that TLouaR cells have less (P < 0.05) ouabain binding sites (1.7 +/- 0.15 x 10(4)/cell vs. 2.3 +/- 0.115 x 10(4)/cell in the control). However, affinities (dissociation constants Kd) to ouabain for TL and TLouaR cells are not significantly different. Lastly, Na,K-ATPase activity (1.375 +/- 0.25 micromole ATP/min mg protein) of TLouaR cells is significantly higher (P < 0.05) than that of the TL cells (0.895 +/- 0.12 micromole ATP/min x mg protein). These studies show that the interactions between ouabain and Na,K-ATPase can be mediated through different pathways resulting in diverse phenotypic characteristics. In addition, ouabain resistance does not necessarily reflect the lack of response to the digitalis drug. The exact mechanisms of ouabain resistance observed in the present study remain to be determined but the TLouaR cells may be the best tool to uncover the many functional characteristics of Na,K-ATPase. 相似文献

Babesia gibsoni multiplies well in canine red blood cells (RBCs) containing high concentrations of potassium (HK), reduced glutathione, and free amino acids as a result of an inherited high Na,K-ATPase activity, i.e., HK RBCs. To determine the role of Na,K-ATPase in the multiplication of B. gibsoni, the effect of ouabain on the proliferation of the parasites in HK RBCs was investigated. To determine the direct effect of ouabain on the parasites, the proliferation of the parasites in normal canine RBCs containing low potassium (LK) and high sodium concentrations, i.e., LK RBCs, which completely lack Na,K-ATPase activity, was observed. Ouabain at 0.1 mM significantly suppressed the multiplication of B. gibsoni in HK RBCs in vitro, whereas it had no effect on the parasites in LK RBCs. The results suggest that the multiplication of B. gibsoni in HK RBCs depends mainly on the presence of Na,K-ATPase in the cells. Therefore, the effects of ouabain on the intracellular cation and free amino acid composition of the HK RBCs were examined. In HK RBCs incubated with ouabain, a marked decrease in the concentration of potassium and an increase in sodium were observed, together with a decrease in the number of parasitized cells. These results suggest that the intracellular cation composition maintained by Na,K-ATPase might be advantageous to the parasites. Moreover, the concentrations of some free amino acids, i.e., asparagine, aspartate, glutamate, glutamine, glycine, and histidine, were markedly decreased in HK RBCs incubated with ouabain. Decreased concentrations of the free amino acids induced by inhibition of Na,K-ATPase seemed to affect the multiplication of B. gibsoni in HK RBCs. Based on these results, it is clear that the high Na,K-ATPase activity in HK RBCs contributes to the proliferation of B. gibsoni by maintaining high potassium and low sodium concentrations, as well as high concentrations of some free amino acids in the cells. 相似文献

Homers are scaffolding proteins that bind G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) receptors (IP3Rs), ryanodine receptors, and TRP channels. However, their role in Ca2+ signaling in vivo is not known. Characterization of Ca2+ signaling in pancreatic acinar cells from Homer2-/- and Homer3-/- mice showed that Homer 3 has no discernible role in Ca2+ signaling in these cells. In contrast, we found that Homer 2 tunes intensity of Ca2+ signaling by GPCRs to regulate the frequency of [Ca2+]i oscillations. Thus, deletion of Homer 2 increased stimulus intensity by increasing the potency for agonists acting on various GPCRs to activate PLCbeta and evoke Ca2+ release and oscillations. This was not due to aberrant localization of IP3Rs in cellular microdomains or IP3R channel activity. Rather, deletion of Homer 2 reduced the effectiveness of exogenous regulators of G proteins signaling proteins (RGS) to inhibit Ca2+ signaling in vivo. Moreover, Homer 2 preferentially bound to PLCbeta in pancreatic acini and brain extracts and stimulated GAP activity of RGS4 and of PLCbeta in an in vitro reconstitution system, with minimal effect on PLCbeta-mediated PIP2 hydrolysis. These findings describe a novel, unexpected function of Homer proteins, demonstrate that RGS proteins and PLCbeta GAP activities are regulated functions, and provide a molecular mechanism for tuning signal intensity generated by GPCRs and, thus, the characteristics of [Ca2+]i oscillations. 相似文献

Na,K-ATPase is a key enzyme that regulates a variety of transport functions in epithelial cells. In this study, we demonstrate a role for Na,K-ATPase in the formation of tight junctions, desmosomes, and epithelial polarity with the use of the calcium switch model in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells. Inhibition of Na,K-ATPase either by ouabain or potassium depletion prevented the formation of tight junctions and desmosomes and the cells remained nonpolarized. The formation of bundled stress fibers that appeared transiently in control cells was largely inhibited in ouabain-treated or potassium-depleted cells. Failure to form stress fibers correlated with a large reduction of RhoA GTPase activity in Na,K-ATPase-inhibited cells. In cells overexpressing wild-type RhoA GTPase, Na,K-ATPase inhibition did not affect the formation of stress fibers, tight junctions, or desmosomes, and epithelial polarity developed normally, suggesting that RhoA GTPase is an essential component downstream of Na,K-ATPase-mediated regulation of these junctions. The effects of Na,K-ATPase inhibition were mimicked by treatment with the sodium ionophore gramicidin and were correlated with the increased intracellular sodium levels. Furthermore, ouabain treatment under sodium-free condition did not affect the formation of junctions and epithelial polarity, suggesting that the intracellular Na(+) homeostasis plays a crucial role in generation of the polarized phenotype of epithelial cells. These results thus demonstrate that the Na,K-ATPase activity plays an important role in regulating both the structure and function of polarized epithelial cells. 相似文献

Identification of a specific role for the Na,K-ATPase alpha 2 isoform as a regulator of calcium in the heart. 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

It is well accepted that inhibition of the Na,K-ATPase in the heart, through effects on the Na/Ca exchanger, raises the intracellular Ca2+ concentration and strengthens cardiac contraction. However, the contribution that individual isoforms make to this calcium regulatory role is unknown. Assessing the phenotypes of mouse hearts with genetically reduced levels of Na,K-ATPase alpha 1 or alpha 2 isoforms clearly demonstrates different functional roles for these isoforms in vivo. Heterozygous alpha 2 hearts are hypercontractile as a result of increased calcium transients during the contractile cycle. In contrast, heterozygous alpha 1 hearts are hypocontractile. The different functional roles of these two isoforms are further demonstrated since inhibition of the alpha 2 isoform with ouabain increases the contractility of heterozygous alpha 1 hearts. These results definitively illustrate a specific role for the alpha 2 Na,K-ATPase isoform in Ca2+ signaling during cardiac contraction. 相似文献

A major difference between the Na,K-ATPase ion pump and other P-type ATPases is its ability to bind cardiotonic steroids such as ouabain. Na,K-ATPase also interacts with many membrane and cytosolic proteins. In addition to their role in Na,K-ATPase regulation, it became apparent that some of the newly identified interactions are capable of organizing the Na,K-ATPase into various signaling complexes. This new function confers a ligand-like effect to cardiotonic steroids on cellular signal transduction. This article reviews these new developments and provides a comparison of Na,K-ATPase-mediated signal transduction with other receptors and ion transporters. 相似文献

Interstitial cells of Cajal associated with the myenteric plexus (ICC-MP) are pacemaker cells of the small intestine, producing the characteristic omnipresent electrical slow waves, which orchestrate peristaltic motor activity and are associated with rhythmic intracellular calcium oscillations. Our objective was to elucidate the origins of the calcium transients. We hypothesized that calcium oscillations in the ICC-MP are primarily regulated by the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) calcium release system. With the use of calcium imaging, study of the effect of T-type calcium channel blocker mibefradil revealed that T-type channels did not play a major role in generating the calcium transients. 2-Aminoethoxydiphenyl borate, an inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate receptor (IP(3)R) inhibitor, and U73122, a phospholipase C inhibitor, both drastically decreased the frequency of calcium oscillations, suggesting a major role of IP(3) and IP(3)-induced calcium release from the SR. Immunohistochemistry proved the expression of IP(3)R type I (IP(3)R-I), but not type II (IP(3)R-II) and type III (IP(3)R-III) in ICC-MP, indicating the involvement of the IP(3)R-I subtype in calcium release from the SR. Cyclopiazonic acid, a SR/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase pump inhibitor, strongly reduced or abolished calcium oscillations. The Na-Ca exchanger (NCX) in reverse mode is likely involved in refilling the SR because the NCX inhibitor KB-R7943 markedly reduced the frequency of calcium oscillations. Immunohistochemistry revealed 100% colocalization of NCX and c-Kit in ICC-MP. Testing a mitochondrial NCX inhibitor, we were unable to show an essential role for mitochondria in regulating calcium oscillations in the ICC-MP. In summary, ongoing IP(3) synthesis and IP(3)-induced calcium release from the SR, via the IP(3)R-I, are the major drivers of the calcium transients associated with ICC pacemaker activity. This suggests that a biochemical clock intrinsic to ICC determines the pacemaker frequency, which is likely directly linked to kinetics of the IP(3)-activated SR calcium channel and IP(3) metabolism. 相似文献

Recent studies have ascribed many non-pumping functions to the Na/K-ATPase. Here, we present experimental evidence demonstrating that over half of the plasma membrane Na/K-ATPase in LLC-PK1 cells is performing cellular functions other than ion pumping. This "non-pumping" pool of Na/K-ATPase, like the pumping pump, binds ouabain. Depletion of either cholesterol or caveolin-1 moves some of the "non-pumping" Na/K-ATPase into the pumping pool. Graded knock-down of the alpha1 subunit of the Na/K-ATPase eventually results in loss of this "non-pumping" pool while preserving the pumping pool. Our prior studies indicate that a loss of the non-pumping pool is associated with a loss of receptor function as evidenced by the failure of ouabain administration to induce the activation of Src and/or ERK. Therefore, our new findings suggest that a substantial amount of surface-expressed Na/K-ATPase, at least in some types of cells, may function as non-canonical ouabain-binding receptors. 相似文献

Although the intracellular fatty acid binding proteins have been investigated for nearly two decades and purified proteins are now available, little is known regarding the function of these proteins in intact cells. Therefore, L-cell fibroblasts transfected with cDNA encoding for rat liver fatty acid binding protein (L-FABP) were examined as to whether L-FABP expression in intact cells modifies plasma membrane enzyme activities, fluidity, and lipids. Plasma membrane Na/K-ATPase activity was 65.9 +/- 18.7 and 38.6 +/- 22.8 (P less than 0.001) nmol/mg protein x min for control and high-expression transfected cells, respectively. Consistent with this observation, [3H] ouabain binding to whole cells was significantly decreased from 3.7 +/- 0.3 to 2.0 +/- 0.8 pmol ouabain bound/mg cell protein in control and high-expression cells, respectively, whereas the cell's affinity for ouabain was not significantly altered. Unexpectedly, Western blot analysis indicated that transfected cells had higher levels of Na+, K(+)-ATPase protein; in contrast, the activities of 5'-nucleotidase and Mg-ATPase were unaltered. The effects of L-FABP expression on plasma membrane Na/K-ATPase function appeared to be mediated through alterations in plasma membrane lipids and/or structure. The plasma membrane cholesterol/phospholipid ratio decreased and the bulk plasma membrane fluidity increased in the high-expression cells. In conclusion, plasma membrane Na/K-ATPase activity in L cells may be regulated in part through expression of cytosolic L-FABP. 相似文献
