We hypothesized that, during isosmotic isonatremic HCl acidosis with maintained isocapnia in cisternal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), acetazolamide, by inhibiting carbonic anhydrase (CA) in the central nervous system (CNS), should produce an isonatric hyperchloric metabolic acidosis in CSF. Blood and CSF ions and acid-base variables were measured in two groups of anesthetized and paralyzed dogs with bilateral ligation of renal pedicles during 5 h of HCl acidosis (plasma [HCO3-] = 11 meq/l). Mechanical ventilation was regulated such that arterial PCO2 dropped and CSF Pco2 remained relatively constant. In group I (control group, n = 6), CSF [Na+] remained unchanged, [HCO3-] and strong ions difference (SID) fell, respectively, 6.1 and 5 meq/l, and [Cl-] rose 3.5 meq/l after 5 h of acidosis. In acetazolamide-treated animals, (group II, n = 7), CSF [Na+] remained unchanged, [HCO3-], and SID fell 11 and 7.1 meq/l, respectively, and [Cl-] rose 7.1 meq/l. We conclude that during HCl acidosis inhibition of CNS CA by acetazolamide induces an isonatric hyperchloric metabolic acidosis in CSF, which is more severe than that observed in controls. 相似文献

Regulation of CSF HCO3-in respiratory acidosis was studied in light of the "dual contribution theory," which proposed that there were two sources for the CSF HCO3-increase: 1) HCO3-by diffusion from plasma and 2) HCO3-generated in the CNS and catalyzed by the local carbonic anhydrase (J. Appl. Physiol. 38: 504-512, 1975). In anesthetized dogs with an increase in Paco2 of 30 mmHg for 4 h the plasma HCO3 increased 2 meq/1 and CSF 6 meq/1. In combined respiratory and metabolic acidosis, plasma HCO3-did not increase but CSF HCO3-increased 6 meq/1. In combined acidosis and intraventricular injections of acetazolamide no increase in plasma or CSF HCO3-occurred. In combined respiratory acidosis and metabolic alkalosis and intraventricular acetazolamide, plasma HCO3-increased 15 meq/1 but CSF HCO3-increased 6 meq/1. Brain and CSF ammonia increased linearly and selectively with the increase in the relative contribution of CNS HCO3-increase. Therefore regulation of CSF HCO3-in respiratory acidosis depends on both components of the dual contribution theory, where each component can provide the total CSF HCO3-increase under appropriate experimental conditions. The control mechanism may be sensitive to changes in [H+] on the brain side of the blood-brain barrier. 相似文献

We randomly assigned 32 healthy backpackers to receive placebo, acetazolamide (250 mg twice a day), dexamethasone acetate (4 mg four times a day), or both drugs in combination to determine the drug efficacy in preventing acute mountain sickness (AMS) at altitudes of 3,650 to 4,050m (12,000 to 13,300 ft). The incidence of AMS was high but symptoms were generally mild. Combined drug therapy was superior to both placebo and single drug therapy in risk reduction. Using acetazolamide alone was moderately beneficial in preventing the occurrence of AMS, although minor side effects were frequent. The use of dexamethasone alone did not significantly reduce the AMS incidence, and discontinuing its use resulted in symptoms suggestive of adrenal insufficiency. For recreational backpackers, routine drug prophylaxis is not recommended, in view of the mild nature of this illness and the adverse effects of medications. The efficacy of combined acetazolamide-dexamethasone therapy warrants further investigation at higher altitudes, where AMS is more severe, and the dexamethasone should be withdrawn gradually to avoid a possible adrenal crisis. 相似文献

Summary The function of carbonic anhydrase (CA) in the Red Rock Crab,Cancer productus Randall, was investigated. CA activity was found to varying degrees in the gills and many other tissues but not in hemolymph. Crabs injected with acetazolamide, a specific CA inhibitor, demonstrated a significant hemolymph acidosis. Hemolymph CO2 tension (
) and CO2 content (
) also increased and remained significantly elevated for 96 h following treatment. No significant changes could be detected in either hemolymph oxygenation or ionic status (except for HCO

) and metabolic (lactate) components compared with the control group. Upon reimmersion acetazolamide treated crabs showed a slower recovery of hemolymph pH compared with the control group and no significant removal of the total CO2 load induced by air exposure. No significant differences between experimental and control groups during air exposure and recovery could be detected in hemolymph oxygenation, ionic status, NH3+NH

to molecular CO2 at the gill. It is also recognized that gill CA may also serve to hydrate molecular CO2 to H+ and HCO3/– for use as counterions for ionic uptake mechanisms. Crab gill CA thus appears to play an important role in CO2 excretion as well as hemolymph ionic regulation. 相似文献

Introduction
Acetazolamide, a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, remains the only FDA approved pharmaceutical prophylaxis for acute mountain sickness (AMS) though its effectiveness after rapid transport in real world conditions is less clear.Methods
Over 2 years, 248 healthy adults traveled by airplane from sea level (SL) to the South Pole (ALT, ~3200m) and 226 participants provided Lake Louise Symptom Scores (LLSS) on a daily basis for 1 week; vital signs, blood samples, and urine samples were collected at SL and at ALT. Acetazolamide was available to any participant desiring prophylaxis. Comparisons were made between the acetazolamide with AMS (ACZ/AMS) (n = 42), acetazolamide without AMS (ACZ/No AMS)(n = 49), no acetazolamide with AMS (No ACZ/AMS) (n = 56), and the no acetazolamide without AMS (No ACZ/No AMS) (n = 79) groups. Statistical analysis included Chi-squared and one-way ANOVA with Bonferroni post-hoc tests. Significance was p≤0.05.Results
No significant differences were found for between-group characteristics or incidence of AMS between ACZ and No ACZ groups. ACZ/AMS reported greater LLSS, BMI, and red cell distribution width. ACZ/No AMS had the highest oxygen saturation (O2Sat) at ALT. No significant differences were found in serum electrolyte concentrations or PFT results.Discussion
Acetazolamide during rapid ascent provided no apparent protection from AMS based on LLSS. However, it is unclear if this lack of effect was directly associated with the drug or if perhaps there was some selection bias with individuals taking ACZ more likely to have symptoms or if there may have been more of perceptual phenomenon related to a constellation of side effects. 相似文献6.

A biofeedback model of hyperventilation during exercise was used to assess the independent effects of pH, arterial CO2 partial pressure (PaCO2), and minute ventilation on blood lactate during exercise. Eight normal subjects were studied with progressive upright bicycle exercise (2-min intervals, 25-W increments) under three experimental conditions in random order. Arterialized venous blood was drawn at each work load for measurement of blood lactate, pH, and PaCO2. Results were compared with those from reproducible control tests. Experimental conditions were 1) biofeedback hyperventilation (to increase pH by 0.08-0.10 at each work load); 2) hyperventilation following acetazolamide (which returned pH to control values despite ventilation and PaCO2 identical to condition 1); and 3) metabolic acidosis induced by acetazolamide (with spontaneous ventilation). The results showed an increase in blood lactate during hyperventilation. Blood lactate was similar to control with hyperventilation after acetazolamide, suggesting that the change was due to pH and not to PaCO2 or total ventilation. Exercise during metabolic acidosis (acetazolamide alone) was associated with blood lactate lower than control values. Respiratory alkalosis during exercise increases blood lactate. This is due to the increase in pH and not to the increase in ventilation or the decrease in PaCO2. 相似文献

Previous attempts to detect global cerebral hemodynamic differences between those who develop headache, nausea, and fatigue following rapid exposure to hypoxia [acute mountain sickness (AMS)] and those who remain healthy have been inconclusive. In this study, we investigated the effects of two drugs known to reduce symptoms of AMS to determine if a common cerebral hemodynamic mechanism could explain the prophylactic effect within individuals. With the use of randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, crossover design, 20 healthy volunteers were given oral acetazolamide (250 mg), dexamethasone (4 mg), or placebo every 8 h for 24 h prior to and during a 10-h exposure to a simulated altitude of 4,875 m in a hypobaric chamber, which included 2 h of exercise at 50% of altitude-specific VO(2max). Cerebral hemodynamic parameters derived from ultrasound assessments of dynamic cerebral autoregulation and vasomotor reactivity were recorded 15 h prior to and after 9 h of hypoxia. AMS symptoms were scored using the Lake Louise Questionnaire (LLQ). It was found that both drugs prevented AMS in those who became ill on placebo (~70% decrease in LLQ), yet a common cerebral hemodynamic mechanism was not identified. Compared with placebo, acetazolamide reduced middle cerebral artery blood flow velocity (11%) and improved dynamic cerebral autoregulation after 9 h of hypoxia, but these effects appeared independent of AMS. Dexamethasone had no measureable cerebral hemodynamic effects in hypoxia. In conclusion, global cerebral hemodynamic changes resulting from hypoxia may not explain the development of AMS. 相似文献

Recent evidence suggests that carbonic anhydrase (CA) IX in humans is under the regulatory control of hypoxia-inducible factor and is overexpressed in certain cancers. However, little is known of its presence in nonmammalian vertebrates or its physiological function in any vertebrate. The objective of this study was to examine and characterize the presence, distribution, induction by hypoxia, and physiological function of CA IX in the zebrafish. Zebrafish CA IX was highly expressed in the eye, brain, and gastrointestinal tract and showed increased expression in the eye, brain, and muscle in response to hypoxia (water Po(2) = 24 mmHg). The hypothesis that increased CA IX expression during hypoxia would act to attenuate intracellular acidosis was then examined. Muscle intracellular pH (pH(i)) decreased after 4 h of hypoxic exposure (from 7.15 +/- 0.02 to 7.06 +/- 0.01 pH units) and did not recover by 24 h. Manipulation of extracellular CA activity via intraperitoneal injection of either bovine CA or the selective extracellular CA inhibitor F3500 revealed that although increased CA activity could fully restore pH(i), removal of extracellular activity did not result in further acidosis. An exercise-induced acidosis was also attenuated in fish treated with bovine CA; however, the increased extracellular CA expression resulting from hypoxia had no affect. These data suggest that although extracellular CA can potentially minimize the impact of hypoxia on muscle pH(i), the actual level of extracellular CA activity is likely insufficient to achieve this goal, even when enhanced by hypoxia-induced increases in CA IX expression. 相似文献

Recently, we showed that both acute metabolic acidosis and respiratory acidosis stimulate parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion in the dog. To evaluate the specific effect of acidosis, ionized calcium (iCa) was clamped at a normal value. Because iCa values normally increase during acute acidosis, we now have studied the PTH response to acute metabolic and respiratory acidosis in dogs in which the iCa concentration was allowed to increase (nonclamped) compared with dogs with a normal iCa concentration (clamped). Five groups of dogs were studied: control, metabolic (clamped and nonclamped), and respiratory (clamped and nonclamped) acidosis. Metabolic (HCl infusion) and respiratory (hypoventilation) acidosis was progressively induced during 60 min. In the two clamped groups, iCa was maintained at a normal value with an EDTA infusion. Both metabolic and respiratory acidosis increased (P < 0.05) iCa values in nonclamped groups. In metabolic acidosis, the increase in iCa was progressive and greater (P < 0.05) than in respiratory acidosis, in which iCa increased by 0.04 mM and then remained constant despite further pH reductions. The increase in PTH values was greater (P < 0.05) in clamped than in nonclamped groups (metabolic and respiratory acidosis). In the nonclamped metabolic acidosis group, PTH values first increased and then decreased from peak values when iCa increased by > 0.1 mM. In the nonclamped respiratory acidosis group, PTH values exceeded (P < 0.05) baseline values only after iCa values stopped increasing at a pH of 7.30. For the same increase in iCa in the nonclamped groups, PTH values increased more in metabolic acidosis. In conclusion, 1) both metabolic acidosis and respiratory acidosis stimulate PTH secretion; 2) the physiological increase in the iCa concentration during the induction of metabolic and respiratory acidosis reduces the magnitude of the PTH increase; 3) in metabolic acidosis, the increase in the iCa concentration can be of sufficient magnitude to reverse the increase in PTH values; and 4) for the same degree of acidosis-induced hypercalcemia, the increase in PTH values is greater in metabolic than in respiratory acidosis. 相似文献

Hepatic urea synthesis and pH regulation. Role of CO2, HCO3-, pH and the activity of carbonic anhydrase 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
In isolated perfused rat liver, urea synthesis from ammonium ions was dependent on extracellular HCO3- and CO2 concentrations when the HCO3-/CO2 ratio in the influent perfusate was constant (pH 7.4). Urea synthesis was half-maximal at HCO3- = 4 mM, CO2 = 0.19 mM and was maximal at HCO3- and CO2 concentrations above 20 mM and 0.96 mM, respectively. At physiological HCO3- (25 mM) and CO2 (1.2 mM) concentrations in the influent perfusate, acetazolamide, the inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase, inhibited urea synthesis from ammonium ions (1 mM) by 50-60% and led to a 70% decrease in citrulline tissue levels. Acetazolamide concentrations required for maximal inhibition of urea synthesis were 0.01-0.1 mM. At subphysiological HCO3- and CO2 concentrations, inhibition of urea synthesis by acetazolamide was increased up to 90%. Inhibition of urea synthesis by acetazolamide was fully overcome in the presence of unphysiologically high HCO3- and CO2 concentrations, indicating that the inhibitory effect of acetazolamide is due to an inhibition of carbonic-anhydrase-catalyzed HCO3- supply for carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase, which can be bypassed when the uncatalyzed intramitochondrial HCO3- formation from portal CO2 is stimulated in the presence of high portal CO2 concentrations. With respect to HCO3- supply of mitochondrial carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase, urea synthesis can be separated into a carbonic-anhydrase-dependent (sensitive to acetazolamide at 0.5 mM) and a carbonic-anhydrase-independent (insensitive to acetazolamide) portion. Carbonic-anhydrase-independent urea synthesis linearly increased with the portal 'total CO2 addition' (which was experimentally determined to be CO2 addition plus 0.036 HCO3- addition) and was independent of the perfusate pH. At a constant 'total CO2 addition', carbonic-anhydrase-dependent urea synthesis was strongly affected by perfusate pH and increased about threefold when the perfusate pH was raised from 6.9 to 7.8. It is concluded that the pH dependent regulation of urea synthesis is predominantly due to mitochondrial carbonic anhydrase-catalyzed HCO3- supply for carbamoyl phosphate synthesis, whereas there is no control of urea synthesis by pH at the level of the five enzymes of the urea cycle. Because HCO3- provision for carbamoyl phosphate synthetase increases with increasing portal CO2 concentrations even in the absence of carbonic anhydrase activity, susceptibility of ureogenesis to pH decreases with increasing portal CO2 concentrations. This may explain the different response of urea synthesis to chronic metabolic and chronic respiratory acidosis in vivo. 相似文献

Effects of H+ and CO2 as independent stimuli of central respiratory chemoreceptors were studied in anesthetized cats in which pH and PCO2 on the ventral surface of the medulla (pHe and PeCO2) could be monitored in response to intravenous acid infusion or CO2 inhalation or to a combination of CO2 inhalation and base infusion that allowed PeCO2 to vary at constant pHe. Respiratory responses to these changes were monitored by measuring tidal volume (VT), respiratory frequency (f), and total ventilation. Respiratory acidosis stimulated ventilation by increasing both VT and f. Mild metabolic acidosis (decrease in pHe less than 0.05) exerted similar effects, but more severe metabolic acidosis failed to produce further stimulation. Increasing or decreasing PeCO2 at constant pHe caused pronounced increases or decreases in respiration mediated both by VT and f. For the same change in PeCO2 the respiratory effects were, however, less pronounced when pHe was kept constant than when pHe was allowed to change with PeCO2. The results suggest that both CO2 and H+ exert independent effects on respiration via central chemoreceptors. 相似文献

The Cl(-)/anion exchanger pendrin (SLC26A4) is expressed on the apical side of renal non-type A intercalated cells. The abundance of pendrin is reduced during metabolic acidosis induced by oral NH(4)Cl loading. More recently, it has been shown that pendrin expression is increased during conditions associated with decreased urinary Cl(-) excretion and decreased upon Cl(-) loading. Hence, it is unclear if pendrin regulation during NH(4)Cl-induced acidosis is primarily due the Cl(-) load or acidosis. Therefore, we treated mice to increase urinary acidification, induce metabolic acidosis, or provide an oral Cl(-) load and examined the systemic acid-base status, urinary acidification, urinary Cl(-) excretion, and pendrin abundance in the kidney. NaCl or NH(4)Cl increased urinary Cl(-) excretion, whereas (NH(4))(2)SO(4), Na(2)SO(4), and acetazolamide treatments decreased urinary Cl(-) excretion. NH(4)Cl, (NH(4))(2)SO(4), and acetazolamide caused metabolic acidosis and stimulated urinary net acid excretion. Pendrin expression was reduced under NaCl, NH(4)Cl, and (NH(4))(2)SO(4) loading and increased with the other treatments. (NH(4))(2)SO(4) and acetazolamide treatments reduced the relative number of pendrin-expressing cells in the collecting duct. In a second series, animals were kept for 1 and 2 wk on a low-protein (20%) diet or a high-protein (50%) diet. The high-protein diet slightly increased urinary Cl(-) excretion and strongly stimulated net acid excretion but did not alter pendrin expression. Thus, pendrin expression is primarily correlated with urinary Cl(-) excretion but not blood Cl(-). However, metabolic acidosis caused by acetazolamide or (NH(4))(2)SO(4) loading prevented the increase or even reduced pendrin expression despite low urinary Cl(-) excretion, suggesting an independent regulation by acid-base status. 相似文献

Dichlorphenamide was administered to 13 patients with chronic respiratory failure, and the effects on gas exchange at rest and during exercise and on the acid-base state of CSF were observed. The ventilation for a given level of CO2 production was increased both at rest and during exercise, resulting in an increased arterial Po2 and decreased Pco2.The ventilatory stimulation paralleled the development of a metabolic acidosis but was not associated with tissue CO2 accumulation. Indeed, CSF Pco2 and the oxygenated mixed venous (rebreathing) Pco2 fell by the same amount as arterial Pco2. The level of CO2 elimination after two minutes of exercise was as great for a given work load after dichlorphenamide as before. These findings do not support the view that the drug impairs CO2 transport from tissues either at rest or during exercise. They are most consistent with the view that the primary locus of action of dichlorphenamide in therapeutic doses is the kidney. The metabolic acidosis which results is likely the basis of the respiratory stimulatin, perhaps by its effects on the CSF H2CO3-HCO3 - system. Inhibition of carbonic anhydrase in the red cell and choroid plexus are probably unimportant effects. 相似文献

Abstract: Acidosis is a universal response of tissue to ischemia. In the brain, severe acidosis has been linked to worsening of cerebral infarction. However, milder acidosis can have protective effects. As part of our investigations of the therapeutic window in our neuronal tissue culture model of ischemia, we investigated the effects of acidosis during recovery from brief simulated ischemia. Ischemic conditions were simulated in dissociated cortical cultures by metabolic inhibition with potassium cyanide to block oxidative metabolism and 2-deoxyglucose to block glycolysis. Lowering the extracellular pH (pHe) to 6.2 during metabolic inhibition had no effect on injury, as measured by lactate dehydrogenase release from cultures after 24 h of recovery. Lowering the pHe during the first hour of recovery, in contrast, had profound protective effects. When the duration of metabolic inhibition was lengthened to 30 min, most of the protective effects of the NMDA receptor antagonist MK-801 were lost. However, the protective effects of acidosis were unchanged. This suggested that the protective effects of extracellular acidosis could be due to more than blockade of NMDA receptors. Intracellular acidosis might be responsible. To test this, recovery of intracellular pH (pHi) was slowed by incubation with blockers of Na+/H+ exchangers at normal pHe. The two compounds tested, dimethylamiloride and harmaline, had protective effects when present during recovery from metabolic inhibition. Measurements of pHi confirmed that the blockers slowed recovery from intracellular acidosis; more rapid pHi recovery was correlated with injury. The protective effects of acidosis could be reversed by brief incubation with the protonophore monensin, which rapidly normalized pHi. These results are the first demonstration of the protective effects of blocking Na+/H+ exchange in a model of cerebral ischemia. The protective effects of acidosis appear to arise either from suppressing pH-sensitive mechanisms of injury or from blocking sodium entry due to Na+/H+ exchange. 相似文献

Larval Ambystoma tigrinum were examined to determine their cardiovascular responses to three types of acidosis: metabolic acidosis via NH4Cl gavage; respiratory acidosis via hypercapnia; and anesthetic-induced acidosis, via triacine methanesulphonate. In addition, another group of (metabolic acidosis) animals were tested to determine the role of -mediated catecholamine control on cardiovascular and acid-base regulation. The metabolic and respiratory acidoses produced typical amphibian responses. Anesthesia produced a significant mixed acidosis with respiratory and metabolic components. The cardiovascular responses to metabolic and respiratory acidosis were increased heart rate and pulse pressure. There were no significant changes in diastolic pressure, however, systolic pressure increased as a result of the increased pulse pressure. Animals subjected to metabolic acidosis via -blockade with propranolol did not display the increased heart rate and pulse pressure and the acidosis was deepened and prolonged. Anesthesia resulted in a cardiac slowing and increased pulse pressure, probably explained by the Frank-Starling relationship. There was no change in diastolic pressure. Anesthetized animals had depressed blood O2 tension and elevated blood lactate.Abbreviations HR

Water flow was measured gravimetrically in the presence and absence of vasopressin across the toad urinary bladder. Four groups of toads in different states of acid-base balance were used; a normal group, a group in NH4Cl induced metabolic acidosis, respiratory acidosis, and a group in NaHCO3 induced metabolic alkalosis. Vasopressin induced water flow was significantly reduced during metabolic acidosis and respiratory acidosis. Metabolic alkalosis had no effect on the hydro-osmotic response to vasopressin. Dibutyryl cyclic-AMP-stimulated water flow on the other hand was not affected by either a metabolic or respiratory acidosis. Treatment with indomethacin was able to reverse the observed reduction in the vasopressin-stimulated water flow response in the toad bladder during metabolic and respiratory acidosis. We conclude that the vasopressin stimulated water flow is altered during acidosis and evidence suggests that prostaglandins may be involved in the observed reduction in vasopressin-stimulated water flow. 相似文献

Carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX) is a transmembrane protein that has been shown to be greatly upregulated under conditions of hypoxia in many tumor cell lines. Tumor hypoxia is associated with impaired efficacy of cancer therapies making CA IX a valuable target for preclinical and diagnostic imaging. We have developed a quantitative in vivo optical imaging method for detection of CA IX as a marker of tumor hypoxia based on a near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent derivative of the CA IX inhibitor acetazolamide (AZ). The agent (HS680) showed single digit nanomolar inhibition of CA IX as well as selectivity over other CA isoforms and demonstrated up to 25-fold upregulation of fluorescent CA IX signal in hypoxic versus normoxic cells, which could be blocked by 60%–70% with unlabeled AZ. CA IX negative cell lines (HCT-116 and MDA-MB-231), as well as a non-binding control agent on CA IX positive cells, showed low fluorescent signal under both conditions. In vivo FMT imaging showed tumor accumulation and excellent tumor definition from 6–24 hours. In vivo selectivity was confirmed by pretreatment of the mice with unlabeled AZ resulting in >65% signal inhibition. HS680 tumor signal was further upregulated >2X in tumors by maintaining tumor-bearing mice in a low oxygen (8%) atmosphere. Importantly, intravenously injected HS680 signal was co-localized specifically with both CA IX antibody and pimonidazole (Pimo), and was located away from non-hypoxic regions indicated by a Hoechst stain. Thus, we have established a spatial correlation of fluorescence signal obtained by non-invasive, tomographic imaging of HS680 with regions of hypoxia and CA IX expression. These results illustrate the potential of HS680 and combined with FMT imaging to non-invasively quantify CA IX expression as a hypoxia biomarker, crucial to the study of the underlying biology of hypoxic tumors and the development and monitoring of novel anti-cancer therapies. 相似文献

The role of external carbonic anhydrase in inorganic carbon acquisition and photosynthesis by Chlamydomonas reinhardii at alkaline pH (8.0) was studied. Acetazolamide (50 micromolar) completely inhibited external carbonic anhydrase (CA) activity as determined from isotopic disequilibrium experiments. Under these conditions, photosynthetic rates at low dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) were far greater than could be maintained by CO2 supplied from the spontaneous dehydration of HCO3− thereby showing that C. reinhardii has the ability to utilize exogenous HCO3−. Acetazolamide increased the concentration of DIC required to half-saturate photosynthesis from 38 to 80 micromolar, while it did not affect the maximum photosynthetic rate. External CA activity was also removed from the cell-wall-less mutant (CW-15) by washing. This had no effect on the photosynthetic kinetics of the algae while the addition of acetazolamide to washed cells (CW-15) increased the K½DIC from 38 to 80 micromolar. Acetazolamide also caused a buildup of the inorganic carbon pool upon NaHCO3 addition, indicating that this compound partially inhibited internal CA activity. The effects of acetazolamide on the photosynthetic kinetics of C. reinhardii are likely due to the inhibition of internal rather than a consequence of the inhibition of external CA. Further analysis of the isotopic disequilibrium experiments at saturating concentration of DIC provided evidence consistent with active CO2 transport by C. reinhardii. The observation that C. reinhardii has the ability to take up both CO2 and bicarbonate throws into question the role of external CA in the accumulation of DIC in this alga. 相似文献
