We used the radiolabelled inhibitor of Na+/H+ exchange 5-(N-methyl-N-[3H]isobutyl)amiloride ([3H]-MIA) for assessment of the amount of Na+/H+ exchanger in intact human blood platelets. The inhibition constant, KI, of unlabelled MIA toward the antiport was determined at 100 nM. Washed platelets were incubated for 5 s with different concentrations of [3H]-MIA in the presence or absence of an excess concentration of unlabelled amiloride (400 microM). The platelets were rapidly centrifuged and the radioactivity in the pellet was determined. Scatchard analysis revealed one single class of specific binding sites (KD = 63 nM) and a maximum binding capacity of 500 sites/cell. The turnover rate of the Na+/H(+)-exchanger in unstimulated platelets was estimated at 800/s at 25 degrees C.  相似文献

N5-Methyl-N5-isobutylamiloride (MIA) is one of a series of 5-N-substituted amiloride analogues which exhibit high affinity and specificity for inhibition of Na+/H+ antiport. Amiloride-sensitive [3H]MIA binding to renal brush border membranes exhibited a Kd of 250 nM and a Bmax of 8.6 pmol/mg of protein. Specific binding was optimal at pH 7.5 and inhibited in the presence of Na+ and Li+. Inhibition by amiloride exhibited biphasic kinetics. After resolution of solubilized membranes by high-pressure liquid chromatography, MIA binding activity cofractionated together with Na+/H+ antiport activity, measured after reconstitution in asolectin vesicles, into a major and a minor peak. When fractions containing the major peak of Na+/H+ antiport activity were incubated with [3H]MIA and then photolyzed with a mercury arc lamp, covalent incorporation of label into polypeptides of apparent molecular mass 81 and 107 kDa was observed. These photolabeled bands were also observed in intact brush border membranes in addition to labeled polypeptides of apparent molecular mass 60 and 46 kDa, respectively. Labeling was inhibited by amiloride, reduced in the presence of Na+, and not observed in the absence of photolysis. These data point to the 81- and 107-kDa polypeptides as candidates for identification as components of a Na+/H+ antiport system in renal brush border membranes.  相似文献

Amiloride analogs with hydrophobic substitutions on the 5-amino nitrogen atom are relatively high affinity inhibitors of the plasma membrane Na(+)-H+ exchanger. We demonstrated that a high affinity-binding site for [3H]5-(N-methyl-N-isobutyl)amiloride ([3H]MIA) (Kd = 6.3 nM, Bmax = 1.2 pmol/mg of protein) is present in microvillus membrane vesicles but not in basolateral membrane vesicles isolated from rabbit renal cortex, in accord with the known membrane localization of the Na(+)-H+ exchanger in this tissue. The rank order potency for inhibition of microvillus membrane [3H]MIA binding by amiloride analogs was: MIA (I50 approximately 10 nM) greater than amiloride (I50 approximately 200 nM) greater than benzamil (I50 approximately 1200 nM). This correlated with a qualitatively similar rank order potency for inhibition of Na(+)-H+ exchange: MIA (I50 approximately 4 microM) greater than amiloride (I50 approximately 15 microM) greater than benzamil (I50 approximately 100 microM), but did not correlate with the rank order potency for inhibition of the organic cation-H+ exchanger in microvillus membrane vesicles: MIA approximately benzamil (I50 approximately 0.5 microM) greater than amiloride (I50 approximately 10 microM). However, tetraphenylammonium, an inhibitor of organic cation-H+ exchange, inhibited the rate of [3H]MIA binding without an effect on equilibrium [3H]MIA binding; the dissociation of bound [3H]MIA was inhibited by preloading the membrane vesicles with tetraphenylammonium. These findings indicated that high affinity [3H]MIA binding to renal microvillus membrane vesicles takes place at an internal site to which access is rate-limited by the tetraphenylammonium-sensitive organic cation transporter. Equilibrium [3H]MIA binding was inhibited by H+ but was unaffected by concentrations of Na+ or Li+ that saturate the external transport site of the Na(+)-H+ exchanger. Binding of MIA to its high affinity binding site had no effect on the rate of Na(+)-H+ exchange. This study suggests that the renal Na(+)-H+ exchanger has a high affinity internal binding site for amiloride analogs that is distinct from the external amiloride inhibitory site.  相似文献

The fluorescence of 2',7'-bis(carboxyethyl)-5(6)-carboxyfluorescein (BCECF) has been used to follow the Na+/H+ antiport activity of isolated heart mitochondria as a Na+-dependent extrusion of matrix H+. The antiport activity measured in this way shows a hyperbolic dependence on external Na+ or Li+ concentration when the external pH (pHo) is 7.2 or higher. The apparent Km for Na+ decreases with increasing pHo to a limit of 4.6 mM. The Ki for external H+ as a competitive inhibitor of Na+/H+ antiport averages 3.0 nM (pHo 8.6). The Vmax at 24 degrees C is 160 ng ion of H+ min-1 (mg of protein)-1 and does not vary with pHo. Li+ reacts with the antiporter with higher affinity, but much lower Vmax, and is a competitive inhibitor of Na+/H+ antiport. The rate of Na+/H+ antiport is optimal when the pHi is near 7.2. When pHo is maintained constant, Na+-dependent extrusion of matrix H+ shows a hyperbolic dependence on [H+]i with an apparent Km corresponding to a pHi of 6.8. The Na+/H+ antiport is inhibited by benzamil and by 5-N-substituted amiloride analogues with I50 values in the range from 50 to 100 microM. The pH profile for this inhibition seems consistent with the availability of a matrix binding site for the amiloride analogues. The mitochondrial Na+/H+ antiport resembles the antiport found in the plasma membrane of mammalian cells in that Na+, Li+, and external H+ appear to compete for a common external binding site and both exchanges are inhibited by amiloride analogues.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

A covalently binding label for muscarinic acetylcholine receptors, propylbenzilylcholine mustard (PrBCM), irreversibly inhibits the Na+/H+ exchanger in rat renal brush-border membrane vesicles. Substrates of the antiporter, Na+ and Li+, as well as inhibitors, amiloride, 5-(N-ethyl-N-isopropyl)amiloride (EIPA) and propranolol, protect the antiporter from inactivation by PrBCM. With [3H]PrBCM a band with an app. Mr of 65 kDa is predominantly labeled. Amiloride protects this band from labeling with [3H]PrBCM and [14C]-N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) proving its identity with the renal Na+/H+ exchanger. Our data reveal a specific interaction of PrBCM with the Na+/H+ exchanger and suggest structural relations between antiporter and receptors.  相似文献

Properties of the Na+/H+ exchange system in synaptosomes have been studied primarily by using acridine orange fluorescence to follow H+ efflux. Results obtained from 22Na+ uptake experiments and [3H]ethylpropylamiloride binding experiments are also presented for comparison. The basal properties of the Na+/H+ antiport in synaptosomes are similar to those found in other systems; (i) the stoichiometry of Na+/H+ exchange is 1:1; (ii) Li+ can be successfully substituted for Na+; its affinity for the exchanger (KLi+ = 3 mM) is higher than that of Na+ (KNa+ = 12 mM), but the maximal rate of H+ efflux in the presence of Li+ is about 3 times lower than the maximal rate of H+ efflux in the presence of Na+; and (iii) the Na+/H+ antiport is inhibited by amiloride derivatives with the rank order:ethylisopropylamiloride greater than ethylpropylamiloride greater than amiloride greater than benzamil. The most important finding of this paper is that the external pH dependence of the synaptosomal Na+/H+ antiport is controlled by the value of internal pH and vice versa. For example apparent pHo values for half-maximum activation of the Na+/H+ exchanger are pHo = 7.12 when pHi = 6.4 and pHo = 7.95 when pHi = 7.3. Therefore, a 0.9 pH unit increase in internal pH produces a shift of at least a 0.83 pH unit in the external pH dependence. In addition, changing pHo from 7.75 to 8.50 also shifts the half-maximum pHi value for activation of the Na+/H+ antiport from 6.67 to 7.54.  相似文献

[3H]Ethylpropylamiloride is a useful radioactive label to identify the Na+/H+ exchange system (Vigne, P., Frelin, C., Audinot, M., Borsotto, M., Cragoe, E. J., and Lazdunski, M. (1984) EMBO J. 3, 2647-2651). This paper extends the analysis of the properties of interaction of [3H]ethylpropylamiloride with the exchanger and describes its use with hypertrophied kidneys. [3H]Ethylpropylamiloride-binding sites copurify with the luminal membrane marker alkaline phosphatase but not with the basolateral membrane marker (Na+,K+)ATPase, thus indicating an asymmetric distribution of the Na+/H+ exchanger. Specific [3H]ethylpropylamiloride binding is dependent on pH. The pH dependency indicates that an ionizable function with a pKapp of 7.0 is essential in the association of the amiloride derivative. H+ acts competitively on [3H]ethylpropylamiloride binding; Na+, Li+, or cholinium ions have no effect on the association. Compensatory adaptation of the kidney to chronic reduction of renal mass is accompanied by a 1.7-fold increase in the activity of the Na+/H+ exchange system. Properties of interaction of internal and external pH with the Na+/H+ exchanger of normal and hypertrophied kidneys are identical. Titration of [3H]ethylpropylamiloride-binding sites in normal and hypertrophied kidneys suggests that the increased activity of the Na+/H+ exchange system is not accompanied by an increased concentration of exchangers.  相似文献

Amiloride is a potent inhibitor of the Na+/H+ antiport. Inhibition is generally competitive with extracellular Na+ and therefore believed to result from binding to the outward-facing transport site. It is not known whether amiloride can interact with the internal aspect of the antiport. This question was addressed by trapping the drug inside resealed dog red cell ghosts. The antiport, which is quiescent in resting ghosts, was activated by acid-loading the cytoplasm. This was accomplished by exchanging extracellular Cl- for internal HCO-3 through capnophorin, the endogenous anion exchanger. The activity of the Na+/H+ antiport was detected as an increase in cell volume, resulting from the net osmotic gain associated with coupled Na+/H+ and Cl-/HCO-3 exchange, or as the uptake of 22Na+. Intracellular amiloride, at concentrations in excess of 100 microM, failed to inhibit Na+/H+ exchange. This is approximately 10 times higher than the concentration required for half-maximal inhibition when amiloride is added externally. Independent experiments demonstrated that failure of internal amiloride to inhibit exchange was not due to leakage of the inhibitor, to differences in pH, or to binding or inactivation of amiloride by the soluble contents. It was concluded that the antiport is functionally asymmetric with respect to amiloride. This implies that the transport site undergoes a conformational change upon translocation across the membrane or, alternatively, that a second site required for amiloride binding is only accessible from the outside.  相似文献

Interaction of some mitogenic lectins and growth factors with the cell surface leads to activation of the Na+/H+ antiport and a resultant cytoplasmic alkalinization. Because amiloride inhibits both Na+/H+ exchange and cell proliferation, it has been hypothesized that activation of the antiport is an obligatory requirement and may, perhaps, be the "trigger" for proliferation. However, concentrations of amiloride which inhibit the antiport also inhibit several other intracellular processes, including protein synthesis and phosphorylation. To determine whether activation of the Na+/H+ antiport is necessary for lectin-induced proliferation, we examined the inhibitory activity of a series of potent amiloride analogs by measuring [3H]thymidine incorporation, cell cycle progression, and induction of the interleukin 2 (IL 2) receptor on human lymphocytes. In medium containing bicarbonate, and at concentrations at least 10 times higher than required to inhibit the antiport, these drugs did not inhibit the proliferative response of human peripheral blood T cells to the mitogen phytohemagglutinin. The amiloride analogs also failed to inhibit induction of the IL 2 receptor. Similarly, with human thymocytes, the amiloride analogs did not inhibit the co-mitogenic effects of the lectins phytohemagglutinin and concanavalin A together with IL 2 or the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate. This finding suggests that Na+/H+ exchange through the antiport is not an obligatory requirement for activation or proliferation of human lymphocytes or thymocytes.  相似文献

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of an apparent alteration in intracellular pH and the effect of amiloride on the activity of the Na+/H+ antiporter in perfused rat kidney. Rat kidney-Na+ retention was determined using tracer 22Na in perfusate composed of HCl-glycine buffer (pH 3.80 to pH 5.92) or NH4OH-glycine buffer (pH 6.22-7.95) containing Na+ to match physiologic concentrations. Plotting renal Na+ retention for 10 min versus pH in absence of amiloride showed two classical uncompetitive activator curves for H+, one curve from pH 4.19 to 5.10 and another from pH 6.22 to 7.95. H+ acts as an uncompetitive reversible binding substrate with the receptor triggering activation of the exchanger already sequestered with Na+, thus yielding two Ka values for the exchanger suggesting non-first order kinetics. Using an equation derived for uncompetitive-activation binding of Nao+ and Hi+, plotting [mM Na+ mg protein-1 10 min-1]-1 versus [H+], two linear plots are observed on Cartesian coordinates with abscissa intersecting at 47 +/- 1 microM, pKa = 4.32 +/- 0.02 (pH 4.19-5.10) and 4.21 +/- 0.02 microM, pKa = 5.38 +/- 0.01 (pH 6.22-7.95), respectively. Perfusing buffer containing 2 mM amiloride, completely inactivated the antiporter showing stronger inhibition between pH 3.80 and 5.92. Results suggest the presence of two uncompetitive binding sites for H+ with the Na+/H+ exchanger. One is a high affinity binding site at physiological intracellular apparent pH, and another is a low affinity binding site at ischaemic apparent pH, implying the existence of two titration sites for intracellular pH regulation.  相似文献

The interaction of amiloride and several amiloride derivatives with the Na+/H+ exchange system in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells and in rabbit renal microvillus membrane vesicles was studied from 22Na+ uptake experiments. On both types of preparation, the order of potency of the different molecules tested is: ethylisopropylamiloride greater than ethylpropylamiloride (EPA) greater than amiloride greater than benzamil. 3H-labelled EPA was prepared and used to titrate amiloride binding sites in solubilized microvillus membranes. Kinetics experiments, equilibrium binding studies and competition experiments between [3H]EPA and unlabelled EPA indicate that EPA recognizes a single family of binding sites with a Kd value of 45 nM and a maximum binding capacity of 2 pmol/mg of protein. The order of potency of different amiloride analogs tested in [3H]EPA competition experiments is identical to that found for the inhibition of 22Na+ uptake by the Na+/H+ exchange system, suggesting that [3H]EPA binding sites are associated with the Na+/H+ exchange system. [3H]EPA binding sites are pharmacologically distinct from those of [3H]benzamil and [3H]bumetanide in kidney membranes.  相似文献

We examined the effects of quinidine, amiloride and Li+ on the kinetics of Na+-H+ exchange in microvillus membrane vesicles isolated from the rabbit renal cortex. Quinidine reversibly inhibited the initial rate of Na+-H+ exchange (I50 200 microM). The plot of 1/V versus [quinidine] was curvilinear, with Hill coefficient greater than 1.0, indicating that the drug interacts at two or more inhibitory sites or at a single site on at least two different conformations of the transporter. Quinidine decreased the Vmax for Na+-H+ exchange and increased the Km for Na+, indicating a mixed-type mechanism of inhibition. In contrast, plots of 1/V versus [amiloride] and 1/V versus [Li+] were linear, indicating single inhibitory sites; amiloride and Li+ each increased the Km for Na+ with no effect on Vmax, indicating a competitive mechanism of inhibition. Addition of Li+ increased the intercept with no change in slope of the 1/V versus [amiloride] plot, indicating that Li+ and amiloride are mutually exclusive inhibitors of Na+-H+ exchange. Addition of quinidine increased the slopes of the plots of 1/V versus [amiloride] and 1/V versus [Li+], indicating that the binding of quinidine is not mutually exclusive with the binding of amiloride and Li+. Results from this and previous studies are consistent with the concept that the inhibitor amiloride and the transportable substrates Na+, H+, Li+, and NH+4 all mutually compete for binding to a single site, the external transport site of the renal Na+-H+ exchanger. However, our findings indicate that quinidine interacts with the Na+-H+ exchanger on at least one additional site that is not shared by Na+, Li+, or amiloride.  相似文献

We measured the binding of [3H]-5-(N-methyl-N-isobutyl) amiloride (MIA) to purified rabbit renal brush border membranes. MIA binding was protein, temperature and time dependent with optimal binding at pH 8.0 or above. At low pH MIA binding was inhibited, suggesting competition between H+ ions and MIA for the MIA binding site. There was 70-80% specific binding which reached a plateau at 30 min and remained stable thereafter for 150 min. Scatchard analysis revealed one family of binding sites with Bmax of 3.4 +/- 0.4 pmoles/mg protein and Kd of 30.5 +/- 2.3 nM. MIA inhibited the Vmax of the Na-H antiporter (assessed by acridine orange quenching) in a dose dependent fashion with 100% inhibition at MIA concentration of 10(-3) M and this inhibition was greater than that of amiloride. We conclude that MIA, a potent inhibitor of the Na-H antiporter, displays a high percentage of specific binding to renal brush border membranes and can be used to assess the number of the Na-H antiporters.  相似文献

The mechanisms underlying cytoplasmic pH (pHi) regulation in rat thymic lymphocytes were studied using trapped fluorescein derivatives as pHi indicators. Cells that were acid-loaded with nigericin in choline+ media recovered normal pHi upon addition of extracellular Na+ (Nao+). The cytoplasmic alkalinization was accompanied by medium acidification and an increase in cellular Na+ content and was probably mediated by a Nao+/Hi+ antiport. At normal [Na+]i, Nao+/Hi+ exchange was undetectable at pHi greater than or equal to 6.9 but was markedly stimulated by internal acidification. Absolute rates of H+ efflux could be calculated from the Nao+-induced delta pHi using a buffering capacity of 25 mmol X liter-1 X pH-1, measured by titration of intact cells with NH4+. At pHi = 6.3, pHo = 7.2, and [Na+]o = 140 mM, H+ extrusion reached 10 mmol X liter-1 X min-1. Nao+/Hi+ exchange was stimulated by internal Na+ depletion and inhibited by lowering pHo and by addition of amiloride (apparent Ki = 2.5 microM). Inhibition by amiloride was competitive with respect to Nao+. Hi+ could also exchange for Lio+, but not for K+, Rb+, Cs+, or choline+. Nao+/Hi+ countertransport has an apparent 1:1 stoichiometry and is electrically silent. However, a small secondary hyperpolarization follows recovery from acid-loading in Na+ media. This hyperpolarization is amiloride- and ouabain-sensitive and probably reflects activation of the electrogenic Na+-K+ pump. At normal Nai+ values, the Nao+/Hi+ antiport of thymocytes is ideally suited for the regulation of pHi. The system can also restore [Na+]i in Na+-depleted cells. In this instance the exchanger, in combination with the considerable cytoplasmic buffering power, will operate as a [Na+]i- regulatory mechanism.  相似文献

Activation of sodium/proton (Na+/H+) antiport activity has been shown to occur as an early event in mitogenesis. Because amiloride inhibits Na+/H+ antiport activity, it is hypothesized that mitogenesis may be inhibited by amiloride. In this work, we examined the effect of amiloride on DNA synthesis as measured by [3H]thymidine uptake and immunoglobulin (Ig) production as measured by an ELISA system in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBM). Amiloride at 100 microM concentration inhibited irradiated Raji cell (*R)-activated and phytohemagglutinin-P (PHA-P)-stimulated DNA synthesis by 50 +/- 11% and 72 +/- 12%, respectively. IgG production was inhibited by 71% at 100 microM amiloride concentration in *R-activated PBM. This concentration of amiloride inhibited Na+/H+ antiport activity by 92%. Because amiloride is known to inhibit other pre-replicative cellular functions such as protein synthesis, we used an amiloride analogue, dimethylamiloride, which inhibited Na+/H+ antiport activity by 90% at a concentration of 1 microM without inhibition of PBM Ig or DNA synthesis. Furthermore, neither PHA-P nor *R-stimulated PBM demonstrated an intracellular alkalinization even after 6 hr of stimulation. Similarly, T cell-enriched or B cell-enriched populations did not show intracellular alkalinization after PHA-P or *R activation. Thus, it appears that Na+/H+ antiport activation is not an early event in PBM mitogenesis. The inhibition of mitogenesis by amiloride may be due to abrogation of premitotic events such as protein synthesis.  相似文献

Mg2+ efflux is accomplished by an amiloride-sensitive Na+/Mg2+ antiport   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Mg2+ efflux from Mg2+-preloaded chicken erythrocytes is caused by an electroneutral Na+/Mg2+ antiport. It depends specifically on extracellular Na+, according to Michaelis-Menten kinetics (Km = 25 mM), and is reversibly noncompetitively inhibited by amiloride (Ki = 0.59 mM). In contrast to Na+/H+ antiport, Li+, Ca2+ and N-ethylmaleimide do not interfere with Na+/Mg2+ antiport. The Na+/Mg2+ antiport is driven by the intracellular/extracellular Mg2+ gradient.  相似文献

Guanidinium, a small organic monovalent cation that is permeant through voltage-dependent cationic channels cannot be transported by the cardiac Na+/H+ exchange system. Yet it recognizes the exchanger and is able to block its activity (K0.5 = 30 mM). Guanidinium derivatives that do not belong to the amiloride series and which possess potent antihypertensive properties also block the activity of the Na+/H+ exchange system in various cell types with a greater potency than unsubstituted guanidinium. The most potent compound found, guanochlor, has an affinity for the exchanger ranging between 0.5 microM and 6 microM in different systems and is more potent than amiloride in all systems studied. Guanochlor has the same action as amiloride derivatives on the cardiac cells; it prevents intracellular pH recovery in cardiac cells that have been acidified and also antagonizes the effect of ouabain on 45Ca2+ uptake by chick cardiac cells. Guanochlor does not compete with [3H]ethylpropylamiloride for its binding to the Na+/H+ exchange system of rabbit kidney brush border membrane. It is suggested that guanochlor recognizes a binding site on the Na+/H+ exchanger that is distinct from the amiloride binding site.  相似文献

We investigated the effect of amiloride on alpha-adrenoreceptors (alpha 1 and alpha 2) using radioligand binding techniques. Amiloride inhibited [3H]yohimbine and [3H]prazosin binding to alpha 2- and alpha 1-adrenoreceptors, respectively, from various tissues in a concentration-dependent manner. Amiloride was approximately 9-12 times more potent in inhibiting [3H]yohimbine binding to alpha 2-adrenoreceptors from rat tissues than from other mammalian tissues. However, it had almost the same potency in inhibiting [3H]prazosin binding to alpha 1-adrenoreceptors from rat as well as other mammalian tissues. Further, in rat tissues, amiloride was approximately 10 times more potent in inhibiting [3H]yohimbine than [3H]prazosin binding. Amiloride inhibited [3H]yohimbine binding noncompetitively and [3H]prazosin binding competitively. The inhibition of [3H]yohimbine and [3H]prazosin binding by amiloride was reversible. Since amiloride has been shown to be an inhibitor of Na+-H+ exchanger protein, we believe that it regulates the alpha 2-adrenoreceptors by binding to Na+ -H+ exchanger protein. Triamterene, a compound similar to amiloride in regard to diuretic effect, had very little effect on [3H]yohimbine and [3H]prazosin binding to rat kidney membranes, suggesting that the alpha-adrenoreceptor antagonistic properties of amiloride are not related to its antikaliuretic effect. The results of the present study suggest that some of the pharmacological actions of amiloride (antihypertensive and diuretic effects) can be explained in part by its regulatory effect on both alpha 1- and alpha 2-adrenoreceptors.  相似文献

Net H+ fluxes across the plasma membrane of Chinese hamster lung fibroblasts (CC139) were monitored by pH-stat titration. Na+-depleted cells release H+ upon addition of Na+. Conversely Na+- or Li+-loaded cells take up H+ from the medium when shifted to a Na+,Li+-free medium. This reversible Na+ (or Li+)-dependent H+ flux is inhibited by amiloride and does not occur in digitonin-permeabilized cells. A similar Na+/H+ exchanger was identified in vascular smooth muscle cells, corneal and aortic endothelial cells, lens epithelial cells of bovine origin, and human platelets. Kinetic studies carried out with CC139 cells indicate the following properties: 1) half-saturation of the system is observed at pH = 7.8, in the absence of Na+; 2) external Na+ stimulates H+ release and inhibits H+ uptake in a competitive manner (Ki = 2-3 mM); 3) amiloride is a competitive inhibitor for Na+ (Ki congruent to 1 microM) and a noncompetitive inhibitor for H+; 4) a coupling ratio of 1.3 +/- 0.3 for the H+/Li+ exchange suggests a stoichiometry of 1:1. We conclude that CC139 cells possess in their plasma membrane a reversible, electroneutral, and amiloride-sensitive Na+/H+ antiporter, with two distinct and mutually exclusive binding sites for Na+ and H+. The rapid stimulation of the Na+/H+ antiporter in G0/G1-arrested CC139 cells upon addition of growth factors, together with the fact that intracellular H+ concentration is, under physiological conditions, around the apparent K0.5 of the system, strongly suggests a key role of this antiport in pHi regulation and mitogen action.  相似文献
