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 کاملRelation between myocardial function and expression of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase in failing and nonfailing human myocardium.
Expression of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-ATPase was shown to be reduced in failing human myocardium. The functional relevance of this finding, however, is not known. We investigated the relation between myocardial function and protein levels of SR Ca(2+)-ATPase in nonfailing human myocardium (8 muscle strips from 4 hearts) and in myocardium from end-stage failing hearts with dilated (10...
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 کاملJasmonates: Regulation of Ca-ATPase and role in calcium homeostasis
The active transport of Ca across the membrane of sarcoplasmic reticulum has received much attention for several decades from biochemical and biophysical points of view. The protein composition of this membrane system has been extensively studied and four major proteins have been identified. The molecular mechanisms by which the chemical energy of ATP hydrolysis is channelled into the vectorial...
