چکیده

In non Mg-loaded and non malaria-infected rat erythrocytes, mefloquine (100 lmol·l) stimulated choline/Mg antiport without affecting the Na/Mg antiport. The stimulation of the choline/Mg antiport by mefloquine, found in this study, and by trifluoperazine and fluvoxamine, reported previously [Ebel et al. Biochim Biophys Acta 2004; 1167: 132-40], was associated with CF3 groups attached to the quinoline or benzene ring. The effect of mefloquine on choline/Mg antiport in vitro was not related to the antimalarial action of mefloquine in vivo. In rat erythrocytes, the choline/Mg antiport can be differentiated from the Na/Mg antiport through the use of cinchonine that inhibited the choline/Mg antiport [Ebel et al. Biochim Biophys Acta 2002; 1559: 135-44], and mefloquine that stimulated the choline/Mg antiport, whereby the Na/Mg antiport was not affected by either drug at proper concentrations. The Na/Mg antiport and choline/Mg antiports behave as different molecular entities.

Stimulation of choline/Mg2+ antiport in rat erythrocytes by mefloquine.

In non Mg(2+)-loaded and non malaria-infected rat erythrocytes, mefloquine (100 micromol x l (-1)) stimulated choline/Mg2+ antiport without affecting the Na+/Mg2+ antiport. The stimulation of the choline/Mg2+ antiport by mefloquine, found in this study, and by trifluoperazine and fluvoxamine, reported previously [Ebel et al. Biochim Biophys Acta 2004; 1167: 132-40], was associated with CF3 grou...

Differential effect of imipramine and related compounds on Mg2+ efflux from rat erythrocytes.

The effect of imipramine on Mg2+ efflux in NaCl medium (Na+/Mg2+ antiport), on Mg2+ efflux in choline.Cl medium (choline/Mg2+ antiport) and on Mg2+ efflux in sucrose medium (Cl- -coupled Mg2+ efflux) was investigated in rat erythrocytes. In non-Mg2+-loaded rat erythrocytes, imipramine stimulated Na+/Mg2+ antiport but inhibited choline/Mg2+ antiport and Cl- -coupled Mg2+ efflux. The same effect ...

Na/Mg antiport in erythrocytes of spontaneously hypertensive rats: role of Mg in the pathogenesis of hypertension

Total Mg content in plasma and erythrocytes did not significantly differ between WKY and SHR. Mg efflux via Na/Mg antiport was 10% lower in non Mg-loaded erythrocytes of SHR than in WKY, and 16% lower in Mg-loaded erythrocytes of SHR. The activation of Na/Mg antiport in erythrocytes by Cl, as tested by substitution of Cl with SCN, and the regulation of Na/Mg antiport by protein kinases, as test...

Effect of oxygen free radicals on Mg2+ efflux from erythrocytes.

Hydrogen peroxide destroyed the Na+/Mg2+ antiport in Mg(2+)-loaded human and rat erythrocytes and increased the leakage of intracellular Mg2+ and K+. These effects are opposite to the increase of Na+/Mg2+ antiport and unchanged Na(+)-independent Mg2+ efflux from erythrocytes of patients with cystic fibrosis score 3. Thus, the increase of Na+/Mg2+ antiport in these patients is not caused by incr...
