Effect of calcium on the structure-function relationship of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase in cardiac sarcolemma.

چکیده
Calcium-induced changes in (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity and structural changes of membrane bound proteins in rat heart sarcolemma were investigated. Increasing concentrations of Ca2+ (0.1-8.0 mmol.l-1) gradually inhibited the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity and decreased the alpha-helix content of sarcolemmal proteins. Mathematical and graphical analysis of observed data yielded a quantitative relationship between Ca2+-induced changes in (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity and the secondary structure of membrane proteins in cardiac sarcolemma.

Branchial chamber structure and osmoregulatory function in the prawn, Palaemon elegans (Crustacea: Decapoda) from the Caspian Sea
The structure, ultrastructure and osmoregulatory function of the branchial chamber were investigated in Palaemon elegans (Rathke, 1837) by light microscope, electron microscope and immunohistochemistry methods, respectively. Each chamber possesses a branchiostegite, 3 epipodites and 8 phyllobranchiate gills. The lamellae are attached along the two outer surfaces of the triangular gill axis. Ult...
متن کاملTwo receptor forms for ouabain in sarcolemma-enriched preparations from canine ventricle.
Some evidence indicates that the inotropic effect of cardiac glycosides occurs at concentrations too low to affect Na+,K+-ATPase activity. This suggests that some receptor other than Na+,K+-ATPase mediates the inotropic effect. We studied ouabain binding to sarcolemma-enriched preparations from canine ventricle under conditions known to promote binding to Na+,K+-ATPase. Profiles for binding and...

The role that Na,K-ATPase plays in Na+ and K+ antiport through the sarcolemma, in cation-homeostasis in cardiomyocytes as well as in excitation-contraction coupling and cell signalling in the myocardium is now widely recognized. It was its key importance for the cell membrane function that kept this enzyme intensively studied during the last three decades and finally brought to its discoverer t...

Cyprinus carpio is a stenohaline species but can tolerate some ranges of changes in environmental salinities, so histomorphological methods and Na+-K+ ATPase and Aquaporin 3 immunohistochemistry were performed on common carp kidney as an osmoregulatory organ in experimental groups and control in order to investigate their possible roles during salinity challenge. Five groups of fish (n=25) with...
