Ouabain and related cardiac glycosides stimulate phospholipase C activity 5-fold in rat pinealocytes. The combined treatment of ouabain and norepinephrine, which also stimulates phospholipase C, produces an additive effect. The effects of either ouabain or norepinephrine are blocked by EGTA. However, there are notable differences. The stimulatory effect of ouabain is lost when extracellular Na+ is reduced to 20 mM and is not blocked by prazosin. In contrast, the stimulatory effect of norepinephrine is not blocked when extracellular Na+ is reduced to 20 mM but is blocked by prazosin. Ouabain appears to increase phospholipase C activity through a mechanism involving inhibition of Na+,K+-ATPase, and an accumulation of intracellular Na+ and Ca2+, not involving alpha 1-adrenoceptors. These findings raise the possibility that activation of phospholipase C might be a more general effect of cardiac glycosides. 相似文献

The interactions of Ca2+ with mitochondria from Saccharomyces cerevisiae were explored. Mitochondria were loaded with the metallochromic dye Fluo-3 to measure the concentration of free calcium in the matrix. Addition of EGTA or Ca2+ led to fluctuations in mitochondrial free calcium between 120 and 400 nM. Ca2+ variations were slower at 4 degrees C than at 25 degrees C or in the presence of phosphate instead of acetate. The net uptake of 45Ca2+ was higher with phosphate than with acetate. The optimum pH for Ca2+ uptake was 6.8. Ruthenium red did not affect the uptake of Ca2+. Addition of antimycin-A or uncouplers led to a small and transient release of Ca2+. Addition of EGTA or the monovalent cations Na+ or K+ resulted in higher release of Ca2+. Site I but not site II dependent O2 consumption was partially inhibited by EGTA. The effect of Ca2+ on NADH oxidation is similar to results reported with enzymes from mammalian sources which use NADH, such as the pyruvate, isocitrate and oxoglutarate dehydrogenases. 相似文献

In cardiac hypertrophy and failure it has been shown that the amount of Na/Ca exchanger protein can increase. Several studies have investigated this modification in overt heart failure. However, the role of Na/Ca exchanger overexpression during the development of hypertrophy is unknown. To address this question we investigated Ca2+ regulation in an early stage of cardiac hypertrophy before signs of heart failure occurred and evaluated the role of Na/Ca exchanger overexpression. Cardiac hypertrophy was induced by a constant infusion of angiotensin II (Ang, 1 microg/min/kg) via an osmotic pump for 14 days. Thereafter, ventricular myocytes from either wild type (NON) or transgenic mice overexpressing the Na/Ca exchanger (TR) were isolated. Myocytes were loaded with indo-1 AM or fluo-4 AM to monitor cytoplasmic [Ca2+] with all experiments performed at 37 degrees C. In myocytes exposed to Ang there was an increase in cell capacitance of more than 20% indicating cellular hypertrophy. Ca2+ transients were prolonged in hypertrophied NON myocytes but not in TR myocytes. Action potentials had a less negative plateau in TR myocytes. Sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ content, measured using rapid caffeine application, was greater in TR myocytes but unaffected by hypertrophy. Ca2+ spark frequency was significantly greater in TR. Na/Ca exchanger overexpression prevented the prolongation of the Ca2+ transient observed in hypertrophy and maintained a similar SR Ca2+ leak suggesting a compensatory role in Ca2+ regulation in hypertrophied cardiac myocytes from transgenic mice. We suggest this compensatory effect is mediated by increased SR Ca2+ content and faster Ca2+ removal via the Na/Ca exchanger. 相似文献

Ouabain (5 x 10(-8)-5 x 10(-4) M) was confirmed to cause a dose-dependent increase in [3H]acetylcholine ([3H]ACh) release, cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), and 22Na+ uptake in cerebrocortical synaptosomes of rats in the presence of extracellular Ca2+. Ouabain also caused a dose-dependent decrease in membrane potential. In a low-Na+ (10 mM) medium, ouabain failed to increase [3H]ACh release and [Ca2+]i. Tetrodotoxin (10(-6) M) had no effect on the ouabain-induced increase in both [3H]ACh release and [Ca2+]i but abolished the increase in 22Na+ uptake and partially inhibited the depolarizing effect. Verapamil (10(-6)-5 x 10(-4) M) inhibited the ouabain-induced increase in both [3H]ACh release and [Ca2+]i in a dose-dependent manner. Removal of extracellular Ca2+ abolished the effect of ouabain on [Ca2+]i but not on [3H]ACh release and 22Na+ uptake, regardless of the presence or absence of EGTA. In the absence of extracellular Ca2+, 10 mM Mg2+ blocked ouabain-induced [3H]ACh release, which was resistant to verapamil. These results suggest that ouabain can increase ACh release from synaptosomes without the preceding increases in intracellular Ca2+ and/or Na+ content. It seems likely that the removal of extracellular Ca2+ unmasks mechanisms of ouabain action different from those operating in the presence of Ca2+. 相似文献

This study investigated the effects of electrical stimulation on Na+-K+-ATPase isoform mRNA, with the aim to identify factors modulating Na+-K+-ATPase mRNA in isolated rat extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscle. Interventions designed to mimic exercise-induced increases in intracellular Na+ and Ca2+ contents and membrane depolarization were examined. Muscles were mounted on force transducers and stimulated with 60-Hz 10-s pulse trains producing tetanic contractions three times at 10-min intervals. Ouabain (1.0 mM, 120 min), veratridine (0.1 mM, 30 min), and monensin (0.1 mM, 30 min) were used to increase intracellular Na+ content. High extracellular K+ (13 mM, 60 min) and the Ca2+ ionophore A-23187 (0.02 mM, 30 min) were used to induce membrane depolarization and elevated intracellular Ca2+ content, respectively. Muscles were analyzed for Na+-K+-ATPase alpha1-alpha3 and beta1-beta3 mRNA (real-time RT-PCR). Electrical stimulation had no immediate effect on Na+-K+-ATPase mRNA; however at 3 h after stimulation, it increased alpha1, alpha2, and alpha3 mRNA by 223, 621, and 892%, respectively (P = 0.010), without changing beta mRNA. Ouabain, veratridine, and monensin increased intracellular Na+ content by 769, 724, and 598%, respectively (P = 0.001) but did not increase mRNA of any isoform. High intracellular K+ concentration elevated alpha1 mRNA by 160% (P = 0.021), whereas A-23187 elevated alpha3 mRNA by 123% (P = 0.035) but reduced beta1 mRNA by 76% (P = 0.001). In conclusion, electrical stimulation induced subunit-specific increases in Na+-K+-ATPase mRNA in isolated rat EDL muscle. Furthermore, Na+-K+-ATPase mRNA appears to be regulated by different stimuli, including cellular changes associated with membrane depolarization and increased intracellular Ca2+ content but not increased intracellular Na+ content. 相似文献

Female Wistar rats were used to determine the effects of the chelating agents, EDTA and EGTA, on the in vitro 45Ca2+ accumulation by mitochondria isolated from the skeletal muscle of fatigued animals. The rats were divided into three groups: sedentary-rested (SR), trained-rested (TR), trained-exhausted (TE). The trained groups were exercised on a treadmill for 1 h daily, five times a week, for 22 weeks. At the conclusion of the training program, the TE group was rapidly exercised to exhaustion immediately following their daily 1-h run. In the TR group EDTA reduced 45Ca2+ binding while both EDTA and EGTA appeared to increase mitochondrial Ca2+ and Mg2+ content. In the TE group, EDTA reduced endogenous mitochondrial Ca2+ and Mg2+ content, while both EDTA and EGTA increased 45Ca2+ binding. Since chelating Ca2+ and Mg2+ from the membrane may affect the structure and function of the mitochondria, it is suggested that the use of chelating agents during the isolation of mitochondria from the skeletal muscle of trained rats be viewed with caution. 相似文献

Xenopus oocytes were injected with total mRNA isolated from hearts of 1-day-old chicks. After 5 days of incubation the follicular cell layers were removed and the oocytes were loaded with Na+ by incubation in hypertonic EGTA solution at 37 degrees C. The Na+-loaded oocytes accumulated 45Ca2+ from a Na+-free medium at a 3-18-fold higher rate than noninjected oocytes or oocytes injected with control solution containing no mRNA. Oocytes not subjected to the Na+-loading procedure showed no mRNA-dependent 45Ca2+ uptake. Size fractionation of the mRNA using sucrose density gradient centrifugation under denaturing conditions led to the identification of a 25 S fraction competent for induction of the Na+-Ca2+ exchange system. 相似文献

Isometric force and 45Ca efflux from the sarcoplasmic reticulum were measured at 19 degrees C in frog skeletal muscle fibers skinned by microdissection. After Ca2+ loading, application of the ionophores monensin, an Na+(K+)/H+ exchanger, or gramicidin D, an H+ greater than K+ greater than Na+ channel-former, evoked rapid force development and stimulated release of approximately 30% of the accumulated 45Ca within 1 min, whereas CCCP (carbonyl cyanide pyruvate p-trichloromethoxyphenylhydrazone), a protonophore, and valinomycin, a neutral, K+-specific ionophore, did not. When monensin was present in all bathing solutions, i.e., before and during Ca2+ loading, subsequent application failed to elicit force development and to stimulate 45Ca efflux. 5 min pretreatment of the skinned fibers with 50 microM digitoxin, a permeant glycoside that specifically inhibits the Na+,K+ pump, inhibited monensin and gramicidin D stimulation of 45Ca efflux; similar pretreatment with 100 microM ouabain, an impermeant glycoside, was ineffective. Monensin stimulation of 45Ca efflux was abolished by brief pretreatment with 5 mM EGTA, which chelates myofilament-space calcium. These results suggest that: monensin and gramicidin D stimulate Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum that is mediated by depolarization of the transverse tubules, which seal off after sarcolemma removal and form closed compartments; a transverse tubule membrane potential (myofilament space-negative) is maintained and/or established by the operation of the Na+,K+ pump in the transverse tubule membranes and is sensitive to the permeant inhibitor digitoxin; the transverse tubule-mediated stimulation of 45Ca efflux appears to be entirely Ca2+ dependent. 相似文献

The amount of Ca2+ bound to the Ca2+,Mg2+-dependent ATPase of deoxycholic acid-treated sarcoplasmic reticulum was measured during ATP hydrolysis by the double-membrane filtration method [Yamaguchi, M. & Tonomura, Y. (1979), J. Biochem. 86, 509--523]. The maximal amount of phosphorylated intermediate (EP) was adopted as the amount of active site of the ATPase. In the absence of ATP, 2 mol of Ca2+ bound cooperatively to 1 mol of active site with high affinity and were removed rapidly by addition of EGTA. AMPPNP did not affect the Ca2+ binding to the ATPase in the presence of MgCl2. Under the conditions where most EP and ADP sensitive at steady state (58 microM Ca2+, 50 microM EGTA, and 20 mM MgCl2 at pH 7.0 and 0 degrees C), bound Ca2+ increased by 0.6--0.7 mol per mol active site upon addition of ATP. The time course of decrease in the amount of bound 45Ca2+ on addition of unlabeled Ca2+ + EGTA was biphasic, and 70% of bound 45Ca2+ was slowly displaced with a rate constant similar to that of EP decomposition. Similar results were obtained for the enzyme treated with N-ethylmaleimide, which inhibits the step of conversion of ADP-sensitive EP to the ADP-insensitive one. Under the conditions where most EP was ADP insensitive at steady state (58 microM Ca2+, 30 microM EGTA, and 20 mM MgCl2 at pH 8.8 and 0 degrees C), the amount of bound Ca2+ increased slightly, then decreased slowly by 1 mol per mol of EP formed after addition of ATP. Under the conditions where about a half of EP was ADP sensitive (58 microM Ca2+, 25 microM EGTA, and 1 mM MgCl2 at pH 8.8 and 0 degrees C), the amount of bound Ca2+ did not change upon addition of ATP. These findings suggest that the Ca2+ bound to the enzyme becomes unremovable by EGTA upon formation of ADP-sensitive EP and is released upon its conversion to ADP-insensitive EP. 相似文献

Isolated and cultured rat liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LECs) retain the ability to specifically bind 125I-hyaluronan (HA) and internalize it using a coated pit pathway [Biochem J, 257:875-884, 1989]. Here we have determined the effect of Ca+2 on the binding and endocytosis of HA by LECs. 125I-HA binding to intact LECs at 4 degrees C occurred both in the absence (10 mM EGTA) or the presence of physiologic concentrations of Ca+2 (1.8 mM). However, the specific binding of 125I-HA to LECs increased linearly with increasing Ca+2 concentrations. After permeabilization with the nonionic detergent digitonin, the Ca(+2)-independent HA binding activity increased approximately 743%, while the Ca(+2)-dependent binding activity was enhanced only approximately 46%. Therefore, the Ca(+2)-dependent HA binding activity appears not to be intracellular, whereas the Ca(+2)-independent HA receptor is found both inside LECs and on the cell surface. When LECs were allowed to endocytose 125I-HA at 37 degrees C in 10 mM EGTA or in 1.8 mM Ca+2, no differences were seen in the extent or rate of endocytosis. When LECs were allowed to endocytose 125I-HA in the presence of 10 mM Ca+2, the amount of cell-associated radioactivity increased approximately 20-50-fold. However, this additional cell-associated 125I-HA was not sensitive to hyperosmolarity and was removed by washing the cells in 10 mM EGTA at 4 degrees C. Therefore, the Ca(+2)-dependent cell-associated 125I-HA had accumulated on the cell surface and had not been internalized. From these studies we conclude that LECs have at least two types of specific HA binding sites.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Short term effects of insulin on total brain and branchial Na+K+ ATPase, Ca2+ ATPase and Na+, K+ and Ca2+ ions were investigated in A. testudineus. The increase in brain Ca2+ ATPase after alloxan treatment may account for an increased amount of intracellular calcium required for biochemical events taking place inside the cells. Branchial Na+K+ATPase was significantly stimulated while Ca2+ ATPase significantly inhibited after alloxan treatment. This suggests that alloxan exerts its inhibitory effect on the ATP-driven Ca2+ transport via; its action on the Ca2+ pump protein rather than the membrane permeability to Ca2+. The increased activity of brain Na+K+ ATPase at 3 and 24 hr by insulin to alloxan pretreated fish may account for the stimulated co-transport of glucose and its utilization for energy requirements and the excitatory action on neurons in the brain. The elevated brain Ca2+ ATPase may be due to the role of calcium as a second messenger in hormone action. At 24 hr, the activity of branchial Na+K+ ATPase and Ca2+ ATPase in alloxan pretreated specimens was significantly stimulated by insulin. This may be due to increased synthesis of these enzyme units. Administration of insulin (lU/fish) in normal fish significantly inhibited the activity of brain and branchial Na+K+ ATPase while brain Ca2+ ATPase showed a stimulatory effect at 3 and 24 hr compared to control. Inhibition of total branchial Ca2+ ATPase activity by insulin may be due to increased Ca2+ concentration. Higher plasma glucose level in alloxan treated groups confirms the diabetic effect of alloxan. Insulin reverses this effect. The possible mechanism by which insulin controls Na+K+ ATPase activity appears to be tissue specific. The results seem to be the first report on the effect of insulin on ATPase activity in a teleost. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that insulin performs a role in hydro mineral regulation in freshwater teleosts. 相似文献

Kinetics of long-term (72 hr) calcium content during mitogen activation of cultured human T lymphocytes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In vitro stimulation of human blood lymphocytes with mitogen resulted in an increased intracellular content of Ca2+ per unit cell volume. This increase in Ca2+ content of lectin-activated cells reached a maximum after 24 hr of culture and thereafter slowly declined. Brief treatment of cells at 24 hr of culture with the Ca2+ ionophore A23187 in combination with EGTA resulted in a larger release of Ca2+ from cells in mitogen-stimulated cultures than from cells in control cultures. This indicates that the Ca2+ is accumulated intracellularly but is readily exchangeable. At 24 hr of culture the increase in cellular Ca2+ correlated well with the proliferative response as measured by 3H-thymidine incorporation. Ca2+ influx at 24 and 48 hr of culture was markedly enhanced in the mitogenically stimulated cells as compared either to cells cultured for 1 and 72 hr or cells cultured without mitogen. 相似文献

Regulation of epithelial Na+ channels was investigated by measuring the amiloride-blockable 22Na+ fluxes in apical membrane vesicles, derived from cells exposed to various treatments. Maximal amiloride-blockable 22Na+ uptake into vesicles was obtained if the cells were preincubated at 25 degrees C in a Ca2+-free [ethylenebis(oxyethylenenitrilo)]tetraacetic acid (EGTA) solution. Including 10(-5) M Ca2+ in the cell incubating medium blocked nearly all of the amiloride-sensitive flux in vesicles, even though the Ca2+ was removed before homogenization of the cells. This Ca2+-dependent inhibition of Na+ channels could be induced in whole cells only; incubating cell homogenates with Ca2+ had no effect on the transport in vesicles. The dose-response relationships of this effect were measured by equilibrating cell aliquots with various Ca2+-EGTA buffers, preparing membrane vesicles (in the absence of Ca2+ ions), and assaying them for amiloride-sensitive Na+ permeability. It was found that the Ca2+ blockage is highly cooperative (Hill coefficient of nearly 4) and is characterized by an inhibition constant which varies between 6.4 X 10(-8) to 8.15 X 10(-6)M Ca2+. Thus, it is likely that the above process is involved in the physiological control of Na+ transport. The Ca2+-dependent transport changes were not affected by the calmodulin inhibitor trifluoperasine, vanadate (VO3-), phorbol ester, colchicine, cytochalasin B, 3-deazaadenosine, and 8-bromo-cAMP. Vanadyl (VO2+) ions, on the other hand, produced a "Ca2+-like" inhibition of transport. 相似文献

The binding of 45Ca2+ into synaptosomal plasma membranes (SPM) of dog brain follows a sigmoid path. In graphical analysis of this binding the mean Hill coefficient (h) was 1.64 +/- 0.09 (r2 = 0.96 +/- 0.02). Binding of Ca2+ into SPM was saturable, with an apparent binding constant of 1.2 +/- 0.1 microM. At saturation, such calcium specific binding sites corresponded to 11.2 +/- 0.9 nmol/mg SPM protein. The Hill plot in combination with the biphasic nature of the curve to obtain the equilibrium constant, showed a moderate degree of positive cooperativity in the binding of calcium into SPM of at least one class of high affinity specific binding sites. [14C]estradiol, [14C]estrone and [14C]progesterone, when incubated with SPM up to a concentration of 10 microM for 2 hr at 37 degrees C, bind into SPM at nmolar concentrations. Ca2+ ions up to 5 mM considerably increase steroids binding into SPM. This effect of calcium was concentration-dependent, reached saturation at approx 4-5 mM. Once calcium has promoted steroids binding, the subsequent addition of 25 mM EGTA failed to displace bound steroids. Molecular interactions between calcium and SPM was assessed by measuring the steady-state fluorescence polarization (P) of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH), and by estimating the production of malondialdehyde (MDA) during 2 hr incubation of Ca2+ (5 mM) with SPM at 37 degrees C. The effect of Ca2+ on the SPM structure was to increase both the rigidity of the membrane and the MDA production. Chelation of Ca2+ (5 mM) with EGTA (25 mM) did not reverse the increase in the rigidity owing to metabolic alterations of SPM lipids (e.g. production of MDA).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The viability of hypothermically perfused dog liver was evaluated with a tissue-slice technique. After being preserved for 72 hr, slices of liver were incubated at 30 degrees C for as long as 2 hr; then water content, K+/Na+ ratio, and ATP concentration were measured. Dog livers were assigned to the following experimental groups: Group 1 (no preservation; control); Group 2 (livers preserved for 72 hr); Group 3 (donor animals pretreated with 3.5 mg/kg of chlorpromazine (CPZ) and 20 mg/kg of methylprednisolone (MP), and livers preserved for 72 hr); Group 4 (livers pretreated with 2-deoxycoformycin (2-DOC), 50 mg/liter, and preserved for 72 hr); and Group 5 (combination of Group 3 and Group 4 treatments). Livers in Groups 2, 3, and 4 lost K+ during preservation, and the mean K+/Na+ ratio significantly decreased from a control value of 4.2 +/- 0.4 to 1.5-1.9 (P less than 0.05). Group 5 livers did not lose K+; mean K+/Na+ ratio was 3.9 +/- 0.5. Fresh livers (no preservation) rapidly reaccumulated K+ when the tissue slices were incubated for 2 hr at 30 degrees C; mean K+/Na+ ratio was 3.7 +/- 0.5. Tissue slices from Group 2 livers (72 hr preservation), and livers pretreated with CPZ-MP (Group 3) or pretreated with 2-DOC (Group 4) did not significantly reaccumulate K+ at 30 degrees C; mean K+/Na+ ratio was 1.7-2.1. Only slices prepared from liver pretreated with both CPZ-MP and 2-DOC reaccumulated K+; mean K+/Na+ ratio was 4.6 +/- 1.2.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

A possible modulation of ion permeabilities of rat intestinal brush-border membrane vesicles by Ca2+, a putative second messenger of salt secretion, was explored by three independent methods: (1) measurements of [3H]glucose accumulation driven by a Na+ gradient; (2) stopped-flow spectrophotometry of salt-induced osmotic swelling; (3) 86Rb+, 22Na+ and 36Cl- flux measurements. Cytoskeleton-deprived membrane vesicles were prepared from isolated brushborders by thiocyanate treatment. Intravescicular Ca2+ levels were varied by preincubating vesicles in Ca-EGTA buffers in the presence of the Ca2+-ionophore A23187. At Ca2+free greater than 10(-5) M, initial Na+-dependent glucose uptake in the presence of a 0.1 M NaSCN gradient (but not in its absence) was inhibited by about 50 per cent as compared to EGTA alone (ED50 approximately equal to 10(-6) M Ca2+). By contrast, initial rates of 22Na+ uptake and reswelling rates of vesicles exposed to a NaSCN gradient were increased at least 2-fold by 10(-5) M Ca2+free. Both observations are compatible with a Ca2+-induced increase of the Na+-permeability of the vesicle membrane. The modulation of ion transport was fully reversible and critically dependent on internal Ca2+, suggesting a localization of Ca2+-sensor sites at the inner surface of the microvillous membrane. As shown by radiotracer and osmotic swelling measurements, micromolar Ca2+ additionally increased the flux rate of K+, Rb+, Cl- and NO-3 but did not change the membrane permeability for small uncharged molecules, including glucose and mannitol. The effect of Ca2+ on ion permeabilities could be blocked by Ba2+ (10(-3) M) or Mg2+ (10(-2) M), but not by amiloride (10(-3) M), apamin (2 X 10(-7) M), trifluoperazine (10(-4) M) or quinine (5 X 10(-4) M). At present it is unclear whether Ca2+ activates a nonselective cation and anion channel or multiple highly selective channels in the vesicle membrane. 相似文献

The kinetics of Na(+)-Ca2+ exchange current after a cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration jump (achieved by photolysis of DM-nitrophen) was measured in excised giant membrane patches from guinea pig or rat heart. Increasing the cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration from 0.5 microM in the presence of 100 mM extracellular Na+ elicits an inward current that rises with a time constant tau 1 < 50 microseconds and decays to a plateau with a time constant tau 2 = 0.65 +/- 0.18 ms (n = 101) at 21 degrees C. These current signals are suppressed by Ni2+ and dichlorobenzamil. No stationary current, but a transient inward current that rises with tau 1 < 50 microseconds and decays with tau 2 = 0.28 +/- 0.06 ms (n = 53, T = 21 degrees C) is observed if the Ca2+ concentration jump is performed under conditions that promote Ca(2+)-Ca2+ exchange (i.e., no extracellular Na+, 5 mM extracellular Ca2+). The transient and stationary inward current is not observed in the absence of extracellular Ca2+ and Na+. The application of alpha-chymotrypsin reveals the influence of the cytoplasmic regulatory Ca2+ binding site on Ca(2+)-Ca2+ and forward Na(+)-Ca2+ exchange and shows that this site regulates both the transient and stationary current. The temperature dependence of the stationary current exhibits an activation energy of 70 kj/mol for temperatures between 21 degrees C and 38 degrees C, and 138 kj/mol between 10 degrees C and 21 degrees C. For the decay time constant an activation energy of 70 kj/mol is observed in the Na(+)-Ca2+ and the Ca(2+)-Ca2+ exchange mode between 13 degrees C and 35 degrees C. The data indicate that partial reactions of the Na(+)-Ca2+ exchanger associated with Ca2+ binding and translocation are very fast at 35 degrees C, with relaxation time constants of about 6700 s-1 in the forward Na(+)-Ca2+ exchange and about 12,500 s-1 in the Ca(2+)-Ca2+ exchange mode and that net negative charge is moved during Ca2+ translocation. According to model calculations, the turnover number, however, has to be at least 2-4 times smaller than the decay rate of the transient current, and Na+ inward translocation appears to be slower than Ca2+ outward movement. 相似文献

Stimulation of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca release by Mg reduction of caffeine was studied in situ, to characterize further the Ca2+ dependence observed previously with stimulation by Cl ion. 45Ca efflux and isometric force were measured simultaneously at 19 degrees C in frog skeletal muscle fibers skinned by microdissection; EGTA was added to chelate myofilament space Ca either before or after the stimulus. Both Mg2+ reduction (20 or 110 microM to 4 microM) and caffeine (5 mM) induced large force responses and 45Ca release, which were inhibited by pretreatment with 5 mM EGTA. In the case of Mg reduction, residual efflux stimulation was undetectable, and 45Ca efflux in EGTA at 4 microM Mg2+ was not significantly increased. Residual caffeine stimulation at 20 microM Mg2+ was substantial and was reduced further in increased EGTA (10 mM); at 600 microM Mg2+, residual stimulation in 5 mM EGTA was undetectable. Caffeine appears to initiate a small Ca2+-insensitive efflux that produces a large Ca2+-dependent efflux. Additional experiments suggested that caffeine also inhibited influx. The results suggest that stimulated efflux is mediated mainly or entirely by a channel controlled by an intrinsic Ca2+ receptor, which responds to local [Ca2+] in or near the channel. Receptor affinity for Ca2+ probably is influenced by Mg2+, but inhibition is weak unless local [Ca2+] is very low. 相似文献

Addition of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and the mammotropic hormones prolactin, hydrocortisone, insulin, and estradiol to confluent cultures of the epithelial cell line Rat Mammary (Rama) 25 increases dramatically the formation of domes in the cell monolayer after 48-72 hr. Associated with the increase in doming is an increase of 24% in the activity of the Na+/K+ ATPase. Both Ca2+ (A23187) and Na+ (monensin, gramicidin J, melittin) ionophores can replace DMSO in inducing domes, whilst the K+ ionophore valinomycin inhibits doming. However, there are no synergistic nor additive effects, respectively, with suboptimal or optimal concentrations of A23187 and melittin together. Ouabain, at concentrations which inhibit the Na/K ATPase in vitro, and amiloride, at concentrations reported to inhibit the passive transport of Na+, both inhibit completely the formation of domes induced by DMSO, A23187, and melittin. EGTA, however, inhibits only the induction of doming by DMSO and A23187; it is without effect with melittin. A23187 and melittin induce the major polypeptide changes that occur in doming cultures with DMSO, and most of these changes are also inhibited with ouabain. It is suggested that one possible interpretation of the findings is that the induction of doming by DMSO in Rama 25 cells occurs by means of sequential increases in Ca2+ and Na+ influxes into the cell, and that the increased intracellular concentration of Na+ so produced stimulates the Na+/K+ ATPase, with a net effect of pumping liquid beneath the cellular monolayer. 相似文献

The contribution of Ca2+ channels and Na+/Ca2+ exchange to Ca2+ uptake in rat brain synaptosomes upon long- (t greater than or equal to 30 s) and short-term (t less than 30 s) depolarization by high K+ was studied by measuring the 45Ca content and free Ca2+ concentration (from Quin-2 fluorescence). At 37 degrees C, the system responsible for the K+-stimulated uptake of 45Ca (t greater than or equal to 30 s) and the Na+/Ca+ exchanger are characterized by a similar concentration dependence of external Ca2+ (Ca0(2+] and K0+ as well as by an equal sensitivity to verapamil (Ki = approximately 20-40 microM) and La2+ (Ki = approximately 50 microM). These data and the results from predepolarization suggest that the 45Ca entry into synaptosomes at t greater than or equal to 30 s is due to the activation of Na+/Ca+ exchange caused by its electrogenic component, while the insignificant contribution of Ca2+ channels can be accounted for by their inactivation. At low temperatures (2-4 degrees C) which decelerate the inactivation, the initial phase of 45Ca uptake is fully provided for by Ca2+ channels, showing a lower (as compared to the exchanger) affinity for Ca0(2+) (K0.5 greater than 1 mM)m a greater sensitivity to La3+ (Ki = approximately 0.2-0.3 microM) and verapamil (Ki = approximately 2-3 microM); these channels are fully inactivated by predepolarization with K0+, ouabain and batrachotoxin. The Ca2+ channels can be related to T-type channels, since they are not blocked by nicardipine and niphedipine. 相似文献
