The Na-Ca exchange inhibitory peptide (XIP), which corresponds to residues 251-270 of the Na-Ca exchange protein, specifically inhibits exchange activity (Li, Z., Nicoll, D. A, Collins, A., Hilgemann, D. W., Filoteo, A. G., Penniston, J. T., Weiss, J. N., Tomich, J. M., and Philipson, K. D. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 1014-1020). We have found that XIP decreased Na+i-dependent Ca2+ uptake to 46 and 20% of control in mixed and inside-out bovine sarcolemmal (SL) vesicles, respectively, and to 22% of control in ferret red cell vesicles. XIP inhibited uptake in bovine SL vesicles after proteolytic digestion. XIP also inhibited Na+o-dependent Ca2+ efflux in bovine SL vesicles but did not inhibit Ca2+ uptake in reconstituted proteoliposomes. Extracellular XIP did not inhibit Ca2+ uptake into intact ferret red cells. Inhibition of uptake in bovine SL vesicles was reduced as the ionic strength was increased. 125I-labeled XIP (1 microM) was cross-linked to proteins of bovine SL vesicles, ferret red cell vesicles, and intact ferret red cells. Labeling of bands at approximately 75, 120, and 220 kDa (in bovine SL vesicles) and bands at 55 and 85 kDa (in ferret red cell vesicles) was detected. No cross-linking was detected in intact ferret red cells. We conclude that XIP inhibition is insensitive to proteolytic digestion and is partially dependent on charge association and conformation of the exchanger. XIP binds to and interacts with the intracellular side of the Na-Ca exchanger.  相似文献

The effects of Li+ on Na-Ca exchange in bovine cardiac sarcolemmal vesicles were examined. The initial rate of Na(+)-dependent Ca2+ uptake and efflux was inhibited by Li+ in a dose dependent manner. The initial rate of Na(+)-dependent Ca2+ uptake was inhibited 49.8 +/- 2.9% (S.E.) (n = 6) in the presence of Li+ compared to activity in external K+ or choline+. Kinetic analysis indicated that Li+ increased the Km for Ca2+ (96.3 microM) compared to K+ and choline+ (25.5 and 22.9 microM respectively) while Vmax (1.4, 1.2 and 1.1 nmol Ca2+/mg protein/sec respectively) remained unchanged. Li+ did not alter the experimentally derived stoichiometry of the exchange reaction of 3 Na+ for 1 Ca2+.  相似文献

A method for isolation of guinea-pig cardiomyocytes with pronase has been developed. The method has been assessed in hearts perfused with solutions containing pronase (1 U/ml) and 200 microM Ca2+. Eighty per cent of the cells released were rod-shaped and 1.2 mM Ca2+ tolerant. Enriched medium 199 was used for all solutions. Sodium and slow inward currents recorded from cells dispersed with pronase were similar to those recorded from cells isolated after prolonged exposure to collagenase. Two principal factors are to be marked: (a) presence of high enough amounts of Ca2+ in enzyme solution (up to 200 microM); (b) use of the enriched medium in all the stages of the procedure.  相似文献

To investigate the underlying ionic mechanism of the late plateau phase of the action potential in rabbit atrium the whole-cell patch-clamp technique with intracellular perfusion was used. We recorded the inward current during repolarizations following a brief 2 ms depolarizing pulse to +40 mV from a holding potential of between -70 and -80 mV. The development of this current coincides with the onset of the late plateau phase of the action potential. Peak activation of the current occurs about 10 ms from the beginning of the depolarizing pulse, and it decays spontaneously with a slow timecourse. Its voltage dependency from -40 mV to +40 mV shows very steep activation (-40 to -20 mV) and shows almost the same maximum magnitude between -10 mV and +40 mV. This behaviour is quite different from that of the calcium current. The inward current and the late plateau phase of the action potential were both abolished by the application of 5 mM EGTA, 1 microM ryanodine and by reducing the Na+ gradient. The fully activated current-voltage relation of the inward current was plotted as the difference current before and after treatment with Ryanodine, Diltiazem, 20 mM Na+ inside or 30% Na+ outside and shows an exponential voltage dependence with the largest magnitude of the current occurring at negative potentials. The current-voltage (I-V) curve was well fitted by the Na-Ca exchange equation, i = A exp (-(1 - r)EF/RT). The results suggest that the inward current contributes to the generation of the late plateau phase of the rabbit atrial action potential, and is activated by intracellular calcium released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium release appears to be triggered both by the membrane voltage and by the calcium current. It is concluded that the inward current is generated by Na-Ca exchange.  相似文献

Using the tight-seal voltage-clamp method, the ionic currents in the enzymatically dispersed single smooth muscle cells of the guinea pig taenia coli have been studied. In a physiological medium containing 3 mM Ca2+, the cells are gently tapering spindles, averaging 201 (length) x 8 microns (largest diameter in center of cell), with a volume of 5 pl. The average cell capacitance is 50 pF, and the specific membrane capacitance 1.15 microF/cm2. The input impedance of the resting cell is 1-2 G omega. Spatially uniform voltage-control prevails after the first 400 microseconds. There is much overlap of the inward and outward currents, but the inward current can be isolated by applying Cs+ internally to block all potassium currents. The inward current is carried by Ca2+. Activation begins at approximately -30 mV, maximum ICa occurs at +10-+20 mV, and the reversal potential is approximately +75 mV. The Ca2+ channel is permeable to Sr2+ and Ba2+, and to Cs+ moving outwards, but not to Na+ moving inwards. Activation and deactivation are very rapid at approximately 33 degrees C, with time-constants of less than 1 ms. Inactivation has a complex time course, resolvable into three exponential components, with average time constants (at 0 mV) of 7, 45, and 400 ms, which are affected differently by voltage. Steady-state inactivation is half-maximal at -30 mV for all components combined, but -36 mV for the fast component and -26 and -23 mV for the other two components. The presence of multiple forms of Ca2+ channel is inferred from the inactivation characteristics, not from activation properties. Recovery of the fast channel occurs with a time-constant of 72 ms (at +10 mV). Ca2+ influx during an action potential can transfer approximately 9 pC of charge, which could elevate intracellular Ca2+ concentration adequately for various physiological functions.  相似文献

In single myocytes of the guinea pig taenia coli, dispersed by enzymatic digestion, the late outward current is carried by K+. It has both a Ca2+-activated component and a voltage-dependent component which is resistant to external Co2+. The reversal potential is -84 mV, and the channel(s) for it are highly selective to K+. At 33 degrees C, the activation follows n2 kinetics, with a voltage-dependent time constant of 10.6 ms at 0 mV, which shortens to 1.7 ms at +70 mV. Deactivation follows a single-exponential time course, with a voltage-dependent time constant of 11 ms at -50 mV, which lengthens to 33 ms at -20 mV. During a 4.5-s maintained depolarization, IK inactivates, most of it into two exponential components, but there is a small noninactivating residue. It is surmised that during an action potential under physiological conditions, there is sufficient IK to cause repolarization.  相似文献

Summary Previous work showed that amiloride partially inhibits the net gain of Na in cold-stored red cells of guinea pig and that the proportion of unidirectional Na influx sensitive to amiloride increases dramatically with cooling. This study shows that at 37°C amiloride-sensitive (AS) Na influx in guinea pig red blood cells is activated by cytoplasmic H+, hypertonic incubation, phorbol ester in the presence of extracellular Cat2+ and is correlated with cation-dependent H+ loss from acidified cells. Cytoplasmic acidification increases AS Na efflux into Na-free medium. These properties are consistent with the presence of a Na-H exchanger with a H+ regulatory site. Elevation of cytoplasmic free Mg2– above 3 mm greatly increases AS Na influx: this correlates with a Na-dependent loss of Mg2–, indicating the presence of a Na-Mg exchanger.At 20°C activators of Na-H exchange have little or no further stimulatory effect on the already elevated AS Na influx. AS Na influx is much larger than either Na-dependent H+ loss or AS Na efflux at 20°C. The affinity of the AS Na influx for cytoplasmic H+ is greater at 20°C than at 37°C. Depletion of cytoplasmic Mg2+ does not abolish the high AS Na influx at 20°C.Thus, elevation of AS Na influx with cooling appears to be due to increased activity of a Na-H exchanger (operating in a slippage mode) caused by greater sensitivity to H+ at a regulatory site.  相似文献

The effects of external protons on single sodium channel currents recorded from cell-attached patches on guinea pig ventricular myocytes were investigated. Extracellular protons reduce single channel current amplitude in a dose-dependent manner, consistent with a simple rapid channel block model where protons bind to a site within the channel with an apparent pKH of 5.10. The reduction in single channel current amplitude by protons is voltage independent between -70 and -20 mV. Increasing external proton concentration also shifts channel gating parameters to more positive voltages, consistent with previous macroscopic results. Similar voltage shifts are seen in the steady-state inactivation (h infinity) curve, the time constant for macroscopic current inactivation (tau h), and the first latency function describing channel activation. As pHo decreases from 7.4 to 5.5 the midpoint of the h infinity curve shifts from -107.6 +/- 2.6 mV (mean +/- SD, n = 16) to -94.3 +/- 1.9 mV (n = 3, P less than 0.001). These effects on channel gating are consistent with a reduction in negative surface potential due to titration of negative external surface charge. The Gouy-Chapman-Stern surface charge model incorporating specific proton binding provides an excellent fit to the dose-response curve for the shift in the midpoint of the h infinity curve with protons, yielding an estimate for total negative surface charge density of -1e/490 A2 and a pKH for proton binding of 5.16. By reducing external surface Na+ concentration, titration of negative surface charge can also quantitatively account for the reduction in single Na+ channel current amplitude, although we cannot rule out a potential role for channel block. Thus, titration by protons of a single class of negatively charged sites may account for effects on both single channel current amplitude and gating.  相似文献

Cardiac rhabdomyomatosis of Hartley guinea pigs was examined by light and transmission electron microscopy, and its incidence and distribution were also described. Cardiac rhabdomyomatosis was found in 58 cases out of 345 animals, aged from 1.5 to 17 weeks. A few small lesions were noted in many cases, but large lesions were rare. Most lesions noted in the ventricle were found to measure from 1 mm2 to 5 mm2 in area. The larger lesions were seen near the cardiac apex. In terms of distribution of the lesions, they were observed most frequently in the left ventricular free wall. They were also distributed less frequently in the ventricular septum and in the right ventricular free wall. In bilateral free walls and the ventricular septum, this lesion was frequently noted on the endocardial side and in the tunica muscularis, respectively. Light microscopically, this lesion had a characteristic nodular-reticular structure with large vacuolated cells. Electron microscopy of cardiac rhabdomyomatosis revealed two cell types, A and B. Type A cells were characterized by large aggregates of glycogen particles distributed loosely in the cytoplasm and by myofibrils and mitochondria located at the periphery of the cytoplasm. Type B cells were characterized by large aggregates of mitochondria near the nucleus and at the periphery of the cytoplasm and by large aggregates of glycogen particles with a similar distribution to those in type in type A cells. Myocardial cells in the marginal regions of rhabdomyomatosis lesions showed mitochondrial swelling and rupture of myofibrils.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The patch-clamp technique of cell-attached and inside-out configurations was used to study the single potassium channels in isolated guinea pig hepatocytes. The single potassium channels in isolated guinea pig hepatocytes were recorded at different K+ concentrations. A linear single-channel current-voltage relationship was obtained at the voltage range of -80 to -20 mV with slope conductance of 70 ± 6 pS (n = 10). Under symmetrical high K+ concentration of 148 mM in the cell-attached patch membrane, the I-V curve exhibited a mild inward rectification at potentials positive to +20 mV. The values of reversal potential was +5 ± 2 mV (n = 10). When the external potassium concentration ([K+]0) was decreased to 74 mM and 20 mM, the slope conductance was decreased to 48 ± 2 pS (n = 4) and 24 ± 3 pS (n = 3), respectively. The reversal potential was changed by 58 mV for a tenfold change in [K+]0, indicating that this channel was highly selective for K+. Open probabilities (P0) of the channel were 73-93% without apparent voltage dependence. The distributions of open time of the channels were fitted to two exponentials, while those of closed time were fitted to three exponentials, exhibiting no voltage dependence. The success rate of K+ channel activity to be recorded was 28% at room temperature, and there were no increases in the success rate nor in the channel opening probabilities at a temperature of 34-36°C. P0 in inside-out patches was not changed by application of 1 μM Ca2+ nor 1 mM Mg2+ to the internal side of patch membranes. It is concluded that a novel type of the K+ channels in guinea pig hepatocytes had different properties of slope conductance, channel kinetics, and sensitivity to [Ca2+]i, from those in other species. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.  相似文献

Kinetic mechanism of guinea pig neutrophil 5-lipoxygenase   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
The kinetic mechanism of guinea pig neutrophil 5-lipoxygenase was investigated using a continuous spectrophotometric assay that monitors product diene formation at 236 nm due to substrate oxygenation. Progress curves for reactions with both arachidonic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid are characterized by 1-3-min lag phases in the attainment of steady-state velocities and product inhibition, as indicated by the total cessation of the reaction prior to complete depletion of substrate. The dependence of the steady-state velocity on arachidonic acid concentration appears to follow Michaelis-Menten kinetics, with Vmax = 4.2 +/- 0.4 nmol of 5-hydroxy-6,8,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid/min/mg of protein and Ks = 25 +/- 4 microM. The addition of Ca2+ results in an overall activation: lag phases are shortened to 10-20 s, Vmax increases to 24 +/- 2 nmol/min/mg of protein, and Ks decreases to 7.7 +/- 1.7 microM; and a change in a mechanism to one involving substrate inhibition (Kss = 13 +/- 1 microM). The observed activation by Ca2+ has a half-maximal response at around 30 microM. In the presence of Ca2+, ATP causes an increase in Vmax to 30 +/- 4 nmol/min/mg of protein without changing Ks or Kss and a reduction of the lag to less than 5 s. The half-maximal response for ATP is 31 +/- 7 microM. Oxygenation of eicosapentaenoic acid in the presence of Ca2+ and ATP occurs with similar kinetics, except for significantly less substrate inhibition: Vmax = 31 +/- 6 nmol/min/mg of protein, Ks = 7 +/- 1 microM, and Kss = 33 +/- 2 microM. This is the first report suggesting a kinetic mechanism for 5-lipoxygenase, which accounts for substrate inhibition, regulation by Ca2+, and ATP and substrate specificity.  相似文献
