beta-Subunit overexpression alters the stoicheometry of assembled Na-K-ATPase subunits in MDCK cells.
In eukaryotic cells, the apparent maintenance of 1:1 stoicheometry between the Na-K-ATPase alpha- and beta-subunits led us to question whether this was alterable and thus if some form of regulation was involved. We have examined the consequences of overexpressing Na-K-ATPase beta1-subunits using Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells expressing flag-tagged beta1-subunits (beta1flag) or Myc-tagg...
متن کاملO-10: A Marked Animal-Vegetal Polarity in The Localization of Na+,K+-ATPase Activity and Its Down-Regulation Following Progesterone-Induced Maturation
Background: Polarized cells are key to the process of differentiation. Xenopus oocyte is a polarized cell that has complete blue-print to differentiate 3 germ layers following fertilization, as key determinant molecules (Proteins and RNAs) are asymmetrically localized. The objective of this work was to localize Na+, K+-ATPase activity along animal-vegetal axis of polarized Xenopus oocyte and fo...
متن کاملSelective basolateral localization of overexpressed Na-K-ATPase beta1- and beta2- subunits is disrupted by butryate treatment of MDCK cells.
The exclusive basolateral localization of the Na-K-ATPase in kidney epithelium is a critical aspect of nephron function. It has been suggested that mislocalized delivery of the Na-K-ATPase to the apical surface in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is due to the inappropriate expression of an alternative isoform of the beta-subunit, the beta(2)-isoform. It has been reported th...
متن کاملCellular and subcellular specification of Na,K-ATPase alpha and beta isoforms in the postnatal development of mouse retina.
The Na,K-ATPase is a dominant factor in retinal energy metabolism, and unique combinations of isoforms of its alpha and beta subunits are expressed in different cell types and determine its functional properties. We used isoform-specific antibodies and fluorescence confocal microscopy to determine the expression of Na,K-ATPase alpha and beta subunits in the mouse and rat retina. In the adult re...
متن کاملPreconditioning attenuates ischemia-reperfusion-induced remodeling of Na+-K+-ATPase in hearts.
The aim of this study was to determine whether changes in protein content and/or gene expression of Na+-K+-ATPase subunits underlie its decreased enzyme activity during ischemia and reperfusion. We measured protein and mRNA subunit levels in isolated rat hearts subjected to 30 min of ischemia and 30 min of reperfusion (I/R). The effect of ischemic preconditioning (IP), induced by three cycles o...
