The distributions of alpha-subunit isoforms of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase in rat pituitary were determined by immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry. Immunoreactivity for all three forms is present in the neural lobe, whereas the anterior lobe contains only alpha 1 and alpha 2. Most areas of the intermediate lobe exhibit faint immunoreactivity for only alpha 1, but thin strands of cells which stain strongly for all three isoforms are also present in this lobe. The previously reported ouabain inhibitable Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity in the neural lobe is consistent with the presence of both alpha 2 and alpha 3 subunits. 相似文献

The effects of 16 group-specific, amino acid-modifying agents were tested on ouabain binding, catalytical activity of membrane-bound (rat brain microsomal), sodium dodecyl sulfate-treated Na+,K(+)-ATPase, and Na+,K(+)-pump activity in intact muscle cells. With few exceptions, the potency of various tryptophan, tyrosine, histidine, amino, and carboxy group-oriented drugs to suppress ouabain binding and Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity correlated with inhibition of the Na+,K(+)-pump electrogenic effect. ATP hydrolysis was more sensitive to inhibition elicited by chemical modification than ouabain binding (membrane-bound or isolated enzyme) and than Na+,K(+)-pump activity. The efficiency of various drugs belonging to the same "specificity" group differed markedly. Tyrosine-oriented tetranitromethane was the only reagent that interfered directly with the cardiac receptor binding site as its inhibition of ouabain binding was completely protected by ouabagenin preincubation. The inhibition elicited by all other reagents was not, or only partially, protected by ouabagenin. It is surprising that agents like diethyl pyrocarbonate (histidine groups) or butanedione (arginine groups), whose action should be oriented to amino acids not involved in the putative ouabain binding site (represented by the -Glu-Tyr-Thr-Trp-Leu-Glu- sequence), are equally effective as agents acting on amino acids present directly in the ouabain binding site. These results support the proposal of long-distance regulation of Na+,K(+)-ATPase active sites. 相似文献

Abstract: The Na+ sensitivity of whole brain membrane Na+ ,K+ -ATPase isoenzymes was studied using the differential inhibitory effect of ouabain (α1, low affinity for ouabain; α2, high affinity; and α3, very high affinity). At 100 m M Na+ , we found that the proportion of isoforms with low, high, and very high ouabain affinity was 21, 38, and 41%, respectively. Using two ouabain concentrations (10−5 and 10−7 M ), we were able to discriminate Na+ sensitivity of Na+ , K+ -ATPase isoenzymes using nonlinear regression. The ouabain low-affinity isoform, α1, exhibited high Na+ sensitivity [ K a of 3.88 ± 0.25 m M Na+ and a Hill coefficient ( n ) of 1.98 ± 0.13]; the ouabain high-affinity isoform, α2, had two Na+ sensitivities, a high ( K a of 4.98 ± 0.2 m M Na+ and n of 1.34 ± 0.10) and a low ( K a of 28 ± 0.5 m M Na+ and an n of 1.92 ± 0.18) Na+ sensitivity activated above a thresh old (22 ± 0.3 m M Na+ ); and the ouabain very-high-affinity isoform, α3, was resolved by two processes and appears to have two Na+ sensitivities (apparent K a values of 3.5 and 20 m M Na+ ). We show that Na+ dependence in the absence of ouabain is the result of at least of five Na+ reactivities. This molecular functional characteristic of isoenzymes in membranes could explain the diversity of physiological roles attributed to isoenzymes. 相似文献

To investigate the functional role of the different Na+, K(+)-ATPase alpha (catalytic) subunit isoforms in neuronal cells, we used quantitative in situ hybridization with riboprobes specific for alpha 1, alpha 2, and alpha 3 isoforms to measure the level of alpha isoform-specific expression in the neuroendocrine cells of the supraoptic (SON) and paraventricular (PVN) nuclei of rat hypothalamus. A prolonged increase in electrical activity of these cells, achieved by 5 days of salt treatment, increased the amount of alpha 1 isoform mRNA in the SON and PVN by 50%. Levels of alpha 1 mRNA in other brain regions and levels of alpha 2 and alpha 3 mRNAs were not affected by salt treatment. We conclude that the alpha 1 isoform Na+, K(+)-ATPase may be specifically adapted to pump out Na+, which enters the cells through voltage-gated channels during neuronal depolarization. 相似文献

Abstract: Rat brain microsomes were preincubated with S -adenosylmethionine (SAM), MgCl2 , and CaCl2 , then re-isolated, and the activity of Na+ ,K+ -ATPase determined. SAM inhibited the Na+ ,K+ -ATPase activity compared with microsomes subjected to similar treatment in the absence of SAM. A biphasic inhibitory effect was observed with a 50% decrease at a SAM concentration range of 0.4 μ M -3.2 μ M and a 70% reduction at a concentration range above 100 μ M . Inclusion of either S- adenosylhomocysteine or 3-deazaadenosine in the preincubations prevented the SAM inhibition of Na+ ,K+ -ATPase activity. The inhibition by SAM appeared to be Mg2+ - or Ca2+ -dependent. 相似文献

The allelic division of the Na+ /K+ -ATPase α-subunit gene was found in eggs of the sea urchin Hemicentrotus pulcherrimus by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Two PCR products of different lengths were detected from a genome in one embryo derived from a fertilized egg, although only one product in one embryo derived from an artificially activated egg by parthenogenesis was detected, indicating one copy of the gene in a haploid genome. One of the two PCR products from each fertilized egg was identical in size to the product from an artificially activated egg in the same batch. The other PCR product was the same in length as one of the products from the sperm with which the eggs were fertilized. These results indicate that recombination of the heteromeric alleles of the Na+ /K+ -ATPase α-subunit gene occurs in the sea urchin egg due to meiosis and fertilization. The sequencing of these products demonstrated that their exon sequences were identical and that the intron, inserted in the PCR products, generated polymorphism in length due to the frequency of the repeating 53 bp sequence and insertion/deletion of other two segments. 相似文献

The effects of nerve growth factor (NGF) on induction of Na+,K+-ATPase were examined in a rat pheochromocytoma cell line, PC12h. Na+,K+-ATPase activity in a crude particulate fraction from the cells increased from 0.37 +/- 0.02 (n = 19) to 0.55 +/- 0.02 (n = 20) (means +/- SEM, mumol Pi/min/mg of protein) when cultured with NGF for 5-11 days. The increase caused by NGF was prevented by addition of specific anti-NGF antibodies. Epidermal growth factor and insulin had only a small effect on induction of Na+,K+-ATPase. A concentration of basic fibroblast growth factor three times higher than that of NGF showed a similar potency to NGF. The molecular form of the enzyme was judged as only the alpha form in both the untreated and the NGF-treated cells by a simple pattern of low-affinity interaction with cardiotonic steroids: inhibition of enzyme activity by strophanthidin (Ki approximately 1 mM) and inhibition of Rb+ uptake by ouabain (Ki approximately 100 microM). As a consequence, during differentiation of PC12h cells to neuron-like cells, NGF increases the alpha form of Na+,K+-ATPase, but does not induce the alpha(+) form of the enzyme, which has a high sensitivity for cardiotonic steroid and is a characteristic form in neurons. 相似文献

A marked increase in the Na+ , K+ -ATPase activity of sea urchin embryos occurred following an elevation of its mRNA level, revealed by Northern blotting analysis, in developmental period between the swimming blastula and the late gastrula stage. cDNA clone of Na+ , K+ -ATPase α-subunit, obtained from γgt10 cDNA library of sea urchin gastrulae, was digested with EcoRl ad Hindlll. The obtained 268 bp cDNA fragment, hybridized to a 4.6 Kb RNA, was used as probe for Northern blotting analysis. The level of Na+ , K+ -ATPase mRNA was higher in embryo-wall cell fraction isolated from late gastrulae (ectoderm cells) than the level in the bag fraction, containing mesenchyme cells (mesoderm cells) and archenteron (endoderm cells). The activity of Na+ , K+ -ATPase and the level of its mRNA were higher in animalized embryos obtained by pulse treatment with A23187 for 3 hr, starting at the 8–16 cell stage and were considerably lower in vegetalized embryos induced by 3 hr treatment with Li+ than that in normal embryos at the post gastrula corresponidng stage. Augmentation of Na+ , K+ -ATPase gene expression can be regarded as a marker for ectoderm cell differentiation at the post gastrula stage, which results from determination of cell fate in prehatching period. 相似文献

Abstract: The activities of certain properties of sodium, potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase (Na +, K+- ATPase; EC 3.6.1.3) were examined in cultures and peri- karya fractions enriched in rat cerebellar nerve cells or astrocytes, in comparison with preparations from whole immature and adult rat cerebellum and derived synapto- somal fractions, as well as nonneural tissue such as the kidney. The specific activity of Na +, K+-ATPase was markedly higher in the freshly isolated astrocytes than in the nerve cells (3–15-fold greater depending on neuronal cell type). In contrast, the specific activity of the enzyme was about twice as high in the primary neuronal as in the a'strocytic cultures after 14 days in vitro. In membrane preparations from the whole cerebellum, synaptosomal fractions, and total perikarya suspensions the inhibition of enzyme activity by ouabain indicated complex kinetics, which were consistent with the presence of two forms of the Na +, K+-ATPase (apparent Aj values of about 10–7M and 10–4-10–5M, respectively), the high- affinity form accounting for 60–75% of the total activity. The interaction of the enzyme with ouabain was apparently similar in perikarya preparations of granule neurones, Purkinje cells, and astrocytes. Differences were, however, observed in the properties of the Na +,K + - ATPase of cultured neurones and astrocytes. The latter contained predominantly, but not exclusively, an Na+,K+-ATPase with low affinity for ouabain (73% of the total) that is similar to the single enzyme form in the kidney. This form constituted a significantly smaller proportion of the Na +, K+-ATPase in the cultured neuronal preparations (55%). It would appear, therefore, that in membrane fractions from preparations enriched in different separated and cultured neural cell types both the high- and the low-affinity forms of the enzyme, in terms of interaction with ouabain, are expressed. Depending on the class of cells these enzyme forms constituted a different proportion of the total activity, but both forms seemed to be present in every type of cell examined, even after taking into acc.ount the contribution in the enriched preparations of the contaminating cell types. In contrast with the results on the Na+, K+-ATPase activity determined under optimal conditions in preparations derived from disrupted cells, differences could not be detected between the cultured cell types when the effect of ouabain on the uptake of 86Rb into “live cells” was estimated as a measure of in situ ion pump activity. Besides the interaction with ouabain, the K+ dependence of the Na+, K+-ATPase activity was also investigated in crude particulate preparations from cultured cerebellar neurones and astrocytes. Differences were observed as nearly maximal enzyme activity was obtained in the as- trocyte preparations at 1 mM KCl, when only about one- third of the maximal activity was displayed by the cultured nerve cells. 相似文献

Analysis of purified Na+,K+-ATPase from cat and human cortex by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis reveals two large catalytic subunits called alpha (-) (lower molecular weight) and alpha (+) (higher molecular weight). Differences in K+ dephosphorylation of these two molecular forms have been investigated by measuring the phosphorylation level of each protein after their separation on sodium dodecyl sulfate gels. In the presence of Na+, Mg2+, and ATP, both subunits are phosphorylated. Increasing concentrations (from 0 to 3 mM) of K+ induce progressive dephosphorylation of both alpha-subunits, although the phosphoprotein content of alpha (-) is decreased significantly less than that of alpha (+). Ka values of alpha (-) for K+ are 40% and 50% greater in cat and human cortex, respectively, than values of alpha (+). alpha (-) and alpha (+) are thought to be localized in specific cell types of the brain: alpha (-) is the exclusive form of nonneuronal cells (astrocytes), whereas alpha (+) is the only form of axolemma. Our results support the hypothesis that glial and neuronal Na+,K+-ATPases are different molecular entities differing at least by their K+ sensitivity. Results are discussed in relation to the role of glial cells in the regulation of extracellular K+ in brain. 相似文献

The aim of the present experiments was to study the effects of the neurotransmitters acetylcholine, noradrenaline, 5-hydroxytryptamine, and dopamine on the Na+,K+-ATPase of rat brain synaptosomal fractions. It is shown that dopamine at low concentrations specifically inhibits the Na+,K+-ATPase of synaptic membranes from the brain regions rich in dopaminergic endings, but has no effect on the synaptosomal Na+,K+-ATPase from the other parts of brain. Acetylcholine and noradrenaline have similar specific effects on Na+,K+-ATPase from cholinergic and adrenergic synaptosomes. The Na+,K+-ATPase of synaptic membranes from the different brain regions, characterised by different distributions of cholinergic, adrenergic, and 5-hydroxytryptaminergic endings, show different reactions with neurotransmitters. These data indicate a functional significance of the effects of the neurotransmitters on the synaptosomal Na+,K+-ATPase. 相似文献

Abstract: There are two α-subunit isoforms (α1 and α2) and two β-subunit isoforms (β1 and β2) of Na+ ,K+ -ATPase in astrocytes, but the functional heterodimer composition is not known. Ouabain (0.5–1.0 m M ) increased the levels of α1 and β1 mRNAs, whereas it decreased those of α2 and β2 mRNAs in cultured rat astrocytes. The increases in α1 and β1 mRNAs were observed at 6–48 h after addition of the inhibitor. Immunochemical analyses showed that ouabain increased α1 and β1, but not α2 and β2, proteins, and that the isoforms in control and ouabain-treated cultures were of glial origin. Low extracellular K+ and monensin (20 µ M ) mimicked the effect of ouabain on α1 mRNA. The ouabain-induced increase in α1 mRNA was blocked by the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide (10 µ M ), the intracellular Ca2+ chelator 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane- N,N,N',N' -tetraacetic acid tetraacetoxymethyl ester (30 µ M ), and the calcineurin inhibitor FK506 (1 n M ). These findings indicate that chronic inhibition of Na+ ,K+ -ATPase up-regulates the α1 and β1, but not α2 and β2, isoforms in astrocytes, suggesting a functional coupling of α1β1 complex. They also suggest that intracellular Na+ , Ca2+ , and calcineurin may be involved in ouabain-induced up-regulation of the enzyme in astrocytes. 相似文献

Abstract: We have previously purified and characterized a nervous system-specific glycoprotein antigen from adult Drosophila heads, designated Nervana [nerve antigen (NRV)] and identified two separate genes coding for three different proteins. All three proteins share homology with the β subunits of Na+ ,K+ -ATPase from various other species. In this study we have isolated a new Drosophila Na+ ,K+ -ATPase α subunit cDNA clone (PSα; GenBank accession no. AF044974) and demonstrate expression of functional Na+ ,K+ -ATPase activity when PSα mRNA is coinjected into Xenopus oocytes along with any of the three different Nrv mRNAs. Western blotting, RNase protection assays, and immunocytochemical staining of adult fly sections indicate that NRV2 is expressed primarily in the nervous system. Staining is most intense in the brain and thoracic ganglia and is most likely associated with neuronal elements. NRV1 is more broadly expressed in muscle and excretory tissue and also shows diffuse distribution in the nervous system. Similar to other species, Drosophila expresses multiple isoforms of Na+ ,K+ -ATPase subunits in a tissue- and cell type-specific pattern. It will now be possible to use the advantages of Drosophila molecular and classical genetics to investigate the phenotypic consequences of altering Na+ ,K+ -ATPase expression in various cell and tissue types. 相似文献

Within the past few years, the phylogenetic tree is discussed controversially regarding the position of the different bilaterian groups. There are two varying views of evolution: the classical one based on morphological structures where the annelids and arthropods are combined in the group of Articulata, and a new hypothesis based on molecular data sets, which divides the protostomian groups in Ecdysozoa (e.g. arthropods, and nematodes) and Lophotrochozoa (e.g. annelids, molluscs, and platyhelminthes). The Na+ /K+ -ATPase is a highly conserved protein and fulfils a very important role in physiology and maintaining the homeostasis of cells and can be found in almost all eukaryotic animals. Due to its similar molecular structure throughout the animal kingdom the Na+ /K+ -ATPase is an excellent marker for phylogenetic studies. Here we report the molecular cloning, sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of Na+ /K+ -ATPase complementary deoxyribonucleic acid (cDNA) of the medical leech Hirudo medicinalis . The cloned cDNA codes for a polypeptide of 1022 amino acids and possesses a predicted molecular mass of 113.33 kDa. Phylogenetic analysis of the complete Na+ /K+ -ATPase α -subunit of H. medicinalis and sequence data from other Na+ /K+ -ATPases supports the previously developed 'Ecdysozoa concept' with high posterior probabilities. A common clade comprising annelids and platyhelminthes can be defined, whereas nematodes are in a basal position at the arthropod stem line. 相似文献

Abstract Unidirectional fluxes of Na+ , Cl− and 3-O-methyl-D-glucose (3-MG) were measured in vitro across Campylobacter jejuni live culture-infected and control rat ileal short-circuited tissues by the Using Chamber technique. Net secretion of Na+ and enhanced secretion of Cl− ions was observed in the infected animals ( P < 0.001, n =6) as compared to the net absorption of Na+ and marginal secretion of Cl− ions in the control animals. There was a significant decrease in the mucosal-to-serosal fluxes of 3-MG in C. jejuni -infected rat ileum. The specific Na+ ,K+ -ATPase activity when measured biochemically in the membrane-rich fraction of enterocytes was found to be significantly lower (58%) in the infected group as compared to the control group ( P < 0.001). Our results therefore suggest that infection with an enterotoxigenic C. jejuni inhibits the Na+ ,K+ -ATPase activity in rat enterocytes. The impairment of Na+ ,K+ -ATPase activity thus appears to induce a secondary change in Na+ ,Cl− and 3-MG transport in vitro in rat ileum. 相似文献

Two expressed sequence tags were isolated from a porcine skeletal muscle cDNA library and identified as the putative partial cDNAs of the porcine Na+ , K+ -ATPase subunit α 2 ( ATP1A2 ) and muscle phosphofructokinase ( PFKM ) genes after sequencing and homology search. Results of analysis of a pig–rodent somatic cell hybrid panel by PCR allowed the assignments of ATP1A2 to porcine chromosome (chr) 4 and of PFKM to porcine chr 5. These assignments support previously observed conservation of syntenic relationships between human chr 1 and porcine chr 4 and between human chr 12 and porcine chr 5. 相似文献

Abstract: The Na+ ,K+ -ATPase plays a key role in the regulation of ion fluxes and membrane repolarization in the CNS. We have studied glucocorticoid effects on biosynthesis of the Na+ ,K+ -ATPase and on ouabain binding in the ventral horn of the spinal cord using intact rats, adrenalectomized (ADX) rats, and ADX rats receiving dexamethasone (ADX + DEX) during 4 days. Cryostat sections from spinal cords were incubated with a 35 S-oligonucleotide coding for the α3 -subunit or a 3 H-cDNA coding for the β1 -subunit of the Na+ ,K+ -ATPase using in situ hybridization techniques. In ventral horn motoneurons, grain density per cell and grain density per area of some for both probes were slightly reduced in ADX rats but significantly increased in the ADX + DEX group, using ANOVA and the Bonferroni's test. Statistical analysis of frequency histograms of neuronal densities further indicated a significant shift to the right for intact rats compared with ADX rats for both probes. Concomitantly, [3 H]ouabain binding to membrane preparations from ventral horns was reduced in ADX rats and restored to normal by DEX administration. No effect of adrenalectomy or DEX treatment was obtained in the dorsal horn. In conclusion, glucocorticoids positively modulate the mRNA for the α3 -subunit and the β1 -subunit of the Na+ ,K+ -ATPase and recover ouabain binding to normal values. The increments of the synthesis and activity of an enzyme affecting membrane repolarization and synaptic neurotransmission are consistent with the alleged stimulatory effect of glucocorticoids on spinal cord function. 相似文献

Na+,K(+)-ATPase concentration in rat cerebral cortex was studied by vanadate-facilitated [3H]ouabain binding to intact samples and by K(+)-dependent 3-O-methylfluorescein phosphatase activity determinations in crude homogenates. Methodological errors of both methods were evaluated. [3H]Ouabain binding to cerebral cortex obtained from 12-week-old rats measured incubating samples in buffer containing [3H]ouabain, and ouabain at a final concentration of 1 x 10(-6) mol/L gave a value of 11,351 +/- 177 (n = 5) pmol/g wet weight (mean +/- SEM) without any significant variation between the lobes. Evaluation of affinity for ouabain was in agreement with a heterogeneous population of [3H]ouabain binding sites. K(+)-dependent 3-O-methylfluorescein phosphatase activity in crude cerebral homogenates of age-matched rats was 7.24 +/- 0.14 (n = 5) mumol/min/g wet weight, corresponding to a Na+,K(+)-ATPase concentration of 12,209 +/- 236 pmol/g wet weight. It was concluded that the present methods were suitable for quantitative studies of cerebral cortex Na+,K(+)-ATPase. The concentration of rat cerebral cortex Na+,K(+)-ATPase showed approximately 10-fold increase within the first 4 weeks of life to reach a plateau of approximately 11,000-12,000 pmol/g wet weight, indicating a larger synthesis of Na+,K+ pumps than tissue mass in rat cerebral cortex during the first 4 weeks of development. K+ depletion induced by K(+)-deficient fodder for 2 weeks resulted in a slight tendency toward a reduction in K+ content (6%, p > 0.5) and Na+,K(+)-ATPase concentration (3%, p > 0.4) in cerebral cortex, whereas soleus muscle K+ content and Na+,K(+)-ATPase concentration were decreased by 30 (p < 0.02) and 32% (p < 0.001), respectively. Hence, during K+ depletion, cerebral cortex can maintain almost normal K+ homeostasis, whereas K+ as well as Na+,K+ pumps are lost from skeletal muscles. 相似文献

We have tested if inhibition of protein kinase C is able to prevent and/or to restore the decrease of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity in the sciatic nerve of alloxan-induced diabetic mice. Mice were made diabetic by subcutaneous injection of 200 mg of alloxan/kg of body weight. The activity of Na+,K(+)-ATPase decreased rapidly (43% after 3 days) and slightly thereafter (58% at 11 days). We show that intraperitoneal injection of 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H7), an inhibitor of protein kinase C, prevents completely the loss of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity produced by alloxan. Also, H7 injected into diabetic mice, 4-9 days after the injection of alloxan, restores the activity of the enzyme. The amount of activity recovered depends on the dose of H7 administered; complete recovery was reached with injection of 15 mg of H7/kg of body weight. The effect of H7 is transient, with a half-life of approximately 1 h. 相似文献

The Na+ ,K+ -ATPase: A Plausible Trigger for Voltage-Independent Release of Cytoplasmic Neurotransmitters 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A comparison was made between the releasability of eight neurotransmitters from eight regions of mouse brain in response to either 60 mM-K+ or 20 microM-ouabain, a specific inhibitor of the Na+,K+-ATPase. With few exceptions, all transmitters were released by either or both agents from each brain region examined. Potassium was superior in releasing the biogenic amines and acetylcholine, while the putative amino acid transmitters were generally releasable by both agents. Measurements of tissue depolarization using [3H]-tetraphenylphosphonium uptake indicated that 60 mM-K+ is capable of depolarizing brain tissue above the threshold necessary for initiating an action potential, but 20 microM-ouabain is not. The pattern of release by ouabain coupled with its failure to depolarize brain tissue at 20 microM suggests that inhibition of the Na+,K+-ATPase is capable of releasing cytoplasmic neurotransmitters in a voltage-independent manner. 相似文献
