Regulation of NaK-ATPase Activity by Neurotransmitters
The hitherto unknown NT-regulated mechanism of NaK-ATPase localized in the nerve ending membranes is found. The mechanism certainly has a functional significance and must be involved in the regulation – modulation of chemical synaptic transmission. On the other hand , the availability of the discovered specific protein, regulators (SFa and SFi) of synaptic origin, makes it possible to consider ...
متن کاملLocalization of NaK ATPase on cultured human retinal pigment epithelium.
PURPOSE To localize NaK ATPase sites on cultured human retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). METHODS Cultured human RPE from fetal, 2-year-old, and 21-year-old donors was grown to confluence in microporous culture wells for 4 months to 2 years, mounted in a small-volume Ussing chamber, and perfused with growth medium. Ouabain (10(-5)-M) was applied to the basal and apical sides of the RPE. Change...
متن کاملAmphiphilic secondary structure: design of peptide hormones.
Peptide synthesis can be used for elucidating the roles of secondary structures in the specificity of hormones, antigens, and toxins. Intermediate sized peptides with these activities assume amphiphilic secondary structures in the presence of membranes. When models are designed to optimize the amphiphilicity of the secondary structure, stronger interactions can be observed with the synthetic pe...
متن کاملHypertonic stress increases NaK ATPase, taurine, and myoinositol in human lens and retinal pigment epithelial cultures.
PURPOSE Recent evidence suggests that taurine and myoinositol may serve as organic osmolytes in a number of cells, including lens and retinal pigment epithelia, but the mechanism for their increased accumulation in response to hypertonic stress is not known. To assess whether NaK ATPase contributed to the elevated levels of taurine and myoinositol in cells exposed to hypertonic media, we measur...
متن کاملExchanging Graphs with GXL
GXL (Graph eXchange Language) is designed to be a standard data exchange format for graph-based tools. GXL is defined as an XML sublanguage, which offers support for exchanging instance graphs together with their appropriate schema information in a uniform format. Formally, GXL is based on typed, attributed, directed, ordered graphs which are extended by concepts to represent hypergraphs and hi...
