Distribution of lens sodium-potassium-adenosine triphosphatase.
PURPOSE The specific activity of sodium-potassium-adenosine triphosphatase (Na-K-ATPase) in lens fiber cells is lower than the specific activity in lens epithelium. To test whether there is a reduction in the expression of Na-K-ATPase molecules in lens fibers, a Western blot technique was used. METHODS Membrane material was isolated from different regions of the rabbit lens. Na-K-ATPase (aden...
متن کاملRenal sodium-potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase and sodium reabsorption.
The role of renal Na(+),K(+)-ATPase in sodium reabsorption was further examined in dogs in which digoxin, a specific inhibitor of the enzyme system, was infused into one renal artery in doses ranging from 0.4 to 0.9 mug/kg/min (low dose) and from 1.0 to 4.0 mug/kg/min (high dose). A significant natriuresis occurred with both dose ranges which was accompanied by inhibition of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase o...
متن کاملSodium-potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase of brain microsomes: modification of sodium inhibition by diphenylhydantoins.
Effects of diphenylhydantoins on (Na(+) + K(+))-ATPase activity in rat and cat brain microsomes were studied. 5,5-diphenylhydantoin (DPH) in concentrations of 5-20 mug ml(-1) produces an apparent stimulation of the rat brain (Na(+) + K(+))-activated ATPase of 55-65% in media containing 50 mM Na(+), 0.15 mM K(+), 3 mM Mg(++), and 3 mM ATP. No effects are found on the Mg-ATPase. At constant K(+) ...
متن کاملDifferential effects of lipid depletion on membrane sodium-plus-potassium ion-dependent adenosine triphosphatase and potassium ion-dependent phosphatase.
The phospholipid-dependence of the (Na-++K-+)-dependent ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) (EC 3.6.1.3) and associated K-+-dependent phosphatase activity (EC 3.6.1.7) have been compared. Unlike the (Na-++K-+)-dependent ATPase activities, the K-+-dependent phosphatase activities of a number of different preparations were not closely correlated with their total phospholipid contents. After partial...
متن کاملEffects of three sodium-potassium adenosine triphosphatase inhibitors.
Reports from several laboratories suggest the presence of an ouabainlike compound in plasma and various animal tissues, particularly during acute volume expansion and in low-renin hypertension. It has been hypothesized that this compound, through inhibition of the Na(+)-K+ pump, can constrict blood vessels, enhance vasoconstriction in response to agonists, increase cardiac contractility, raise ...
