Abstract
The tissue distribution of the multiple forms of rat Na+,K+-ATPase was examined at the molecular level with cDNA probes specific for the alpha, alpha (+), alpha III and beta subunit mRNAs. Northern and slot blot analyses demonstrate that these mRNAs are produced in a tissue-specific manner. RNAs encoding the alpha (+) isoform are detected in kidney, brain, heart, adipose, muscle, stomach and lung, whereas alpha III RNA is detected in brain, stomach and lung. Both alpha and beta mRNAs are present in all the tissues studied, although at very different levels. Examination of heart tissue in greater detail demonstrates that the levels of mRNA encoding the alpha subunit are greater in the atria than in the ventricles, while the converse is true for alpha (+).

Abstract
Ouabain binds to the catalytic subunit of Na+,K+-ATPase and specific [3H]ouabain binding can be used as a measure of the number of active enzyme molecules present in a given tissue. Specific [3H]ouabain binding can be demonstrated in frozen, cryostat sections from rat brain and pineal and these sites have the characteristics of Na+,K+-ATPase. Incubations carried out in the absence of ATP or the presence of excess unlabeled ouabain reduces specific binding by greater than or equal to 98%. The addition of K+ or omission of Mg2+ also result in a decrease in specific binding. Strophanthidin, digoxin and digoxigenin displace [3H]ouabain binding with IC50 values of 0.73, 0.48 and 1.4 microM, respectively. Scatchard analyses of specific [3H]ouabain binding in brain sections shows a single class of non-interacting binding sites with an apparent affinity (Kd) of 339 nM and a maximal binding capacity (Bmax) of 34.9 pmol/mg protein. [3H]Ouabain binding is unevenly distributed throughout the brain with the olfactory nuclei, superior colliculus, dentate gyrus, pontine nuclei and pineal gland having a relatively high density of binding sites. The outer layers (1-3) of the cerebral cortex show more labeling than the inner layers (4-6) and most other brain areas have intermediate levels of [3H]ouabain binding sites, whereas white matter has virtually no specific binding. Computer-assisted densitometry was used to measure changes in specific [3H]ouabain binding after kainic acid injection into the caudate nucleus. An initial increase in [3H]ouabain binding was observed at 1 and 24 h after lesioning and a decrease in [3H]ouabain binding was evident by 9 days after lesioning.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The dephosphorylation kinetics of acid-stable phosphointermediates of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase from ox brain, ox kidney and pig kidney was studied at 0 degree C. Experiments performed on brain enzyme phosphorylated at 0 degree C in the presence of 20-600 mM Na+, 1 mM Mg2+ and 25 microM [gamma-32P]ATP show that irrespectively of the EP-pool composition, which is determined by Na+ concentration, all phosphoenzyme is either ADP- or K+-sensitive. After phosphorylation of kidney enzymes at 0 degree C with 1 mM Mg2+, 25 microM [gamma-32P]ATP and 150-1000 mM Na+ the amounts of ADP- and K+-sensitive phosphoenzymes were determined by addition of 1 mM ATP + 2.5 mM ADP or 1 mM ATP + 20 mM K+. Similarly to the previously reported results on brain enzyme, both types of dephosphorylation curves have a fast and a slow phase, so that also for kidney enzymes a slow decay of a part of the phosphoenzyme, up to 80% at 1000 mM Na+, after addition of 1 mM ATP + 20 mM K+ is observed. The results obtained with the kidney enzymes seem therefore to reinforce previous doubts about the role played by E1 approximately P(Na3) as intermediate of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity. Furthermore, for both kidney enzymes the sum of ADP- and K+-sensitive phosphoenzymes is greater than E tot. In experiments on brain enzyme an estimate of dissociation rate constant for the enzyme-ATP complex, k-1, is obtained. k-1 varies between 1 and 4 s-1 and seems to depend on the ligands present during formation of the complex. The highest values are found for enzyme-ATP complex formed in the presence of Na+ or Tris+. The results confirm the validity of the three-pool model in describing dephosphorylation kinetics of phosphointermediates of Na+-ATPase activity.

Abstract
Ouabain and related cardiac glycosides stimulate phospholipase C activity 5-fold in rat pinealocytes. The combined treatment of ouabain and norepinephrine, which also stimulates phospholipase C, produces an additive effect. The effects of either ouabain or norepinephrine are blocked by EGTA. However, there are notable differences. The stimulatory effect of ouabain is lost when extracellular Na+ is reduced to 20 mM and is not blocked by prazosin. In contrast, the stimulatory effect of norepinephrine is not blocked when extracellular Na+ is reduced to 20 mM but is blocked by prazosin. Ouabain appears to increase phospholipase C activity through a mechanism involving inhibition of Na+,K+-ATPase, and an accumulation of intracellular Na+ and Ca2+, not involving alpha 1-adrenoceptors. These findings raise the possibility that activation of phospholipase C might be a more general effect of cardiac glycosides.

Abstract
Mature rats were dosed with T3 by different routes and dose-levels at either 0.1 mg/kg for 14 days s.c. (Group A), 1 mg/kg for 3 alternative days i.p. (Group B), 5 mg/kg for 14 days p.o. (Group C), or with propylthiouracil (PTU 50 mg/day for 14 days p.o.-Group D). Measurement of cerebellar and striatal NA+,K+-ATPase activities showed that whereas Groups A, B and D were unaffected when compared with controls, there were 35-70% increases respectively in the activities of both molecular forms of the enzyme, alpha(+), high ouabain affinity, and alpha, low ouabain affinity, in Group C rat brains at the highest dose of T3 tested. Kidney Na+,K+-ATPase activity was also elevated (67% increase) in this group of animals showing significant changes in renal medullary tissue only. Acute elevation of brain dopamine levels by administration of an MAOI plus L-DOPA (50 mg/kg, 60 min) significantly elevated (20% increase) the activities of both molecular forms of Na+,K+-ATPase in corpus striatum. Treatment with L-tryptophan (50 mg/kg, 60 min) failed to produce any changes in the striatal activities. The possible relationship of increases in enzyme activities with T3 and increased brain monoamine function is discussed. Both plasma free T4(FT4) and total T4(TT4) were markedly depressed in all T3-treated rats. Although hypothalamic thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH) concentrations were unaltered by any of the T3 treatments, pituitary thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) concentrations were greatly diminished and it is thought that this may reflect a direct effect of T3 on TSH synthesis.

Abstract
Ventricular muscle of rat heart has two classes of receptors which are responsible for the positive inotropic effect of ouabain. Low affinity receptors are apparently related to Na+, K+-ATPase. To determine if high affinity receptors are also sarcolemmal Na+, K+-ATPase of muscle cells, their characteristics were examined. Binding of [3H]ouabain to the high affinity binding site required ATP in the presence of Mg2+ and Na+, was stimulated by Na+ in the presence of Mg2+ and ATP, and was inhibited by K+. Digoxin, digitoxin and cassaine all inhibited [3H]ouabain binding to the high affinity site. Cassaine was about an order of magnitude less potent than the glycosides. These results indicate similarities in high affinity ouabain binding sites in ventricular muscle of rat heart and Na+, K+-ATPase obtained from other sources. Destruction of sympathetic nerve terminals with 6-hydroxydopamine failed to affect the high affinity ouabain binding sites indicating that high affinity sites do not represent the Na+, K+-ATPase in sympathetic nerve terminals. Labeling of Na+, K+-ATPase from [gamma-32P]ATP indicates that high affinity ouabain binding sites account for 25% of the total enzyme molecules present in ventricular muscle of rat heart.

Abstract
The inhibitory potency of altogether 95 steroidal compounds (including cardenolides, bufadienolides and their glycosides) on the Na/K-ATPases (Na+/K+-transporting ATPases, EC 3.6.1.37) from human cardiac muscle, human brain cortex and guinea-pig cardiac muscle was compared to probe the complementary chemotopology of the inhibitor binding site areas on the three enzyme variants. The changes of potency, resulting from systematic variations of the geometry of steroid skeleton and the character as well as the structure of side chains at C3 or/and C17 of steroid backbone, allowed the following major conclusions. With the human cardiac and cerebral enzyme forms, the paired K0.5 (K'D) values for 77 steroid derivatives, covering seven orders of ten, were highly correlated. On an average, the total of compounds showed a 1.5-fold higher affinity to the cardiac enzyme. This tiny differentiation did not appear to be connected with an important difference in the chemotopology of the complementary subsites for steroid nucleus binding on the two enzyme forms. With the human and guinea-pig cardiac enzyme variants, the K0.5 values for 69 steroid derivatives, covering six orders of ten, were determined. For 41 5 beta, 14 beta-androstane derivatives only, the paired K0.5 values showed a close correlation. Here, the human enzyme variant exhibited 27-fold higher affinity. However, the paired K0.5 values determined on both enzymes for 28 steroid derivatives of differing structural features were but poorly correlated. Essentially, the geometries of the steroid nucleus determined the differential contributions of the side chains at C3 and C17 to the integral inhibitory potency on the two enzyme variants. Thus, the species differences in the potency of cardiac glycosides were traced to species differences in the complementarity of the steroid binding subsites. Hence, estimates of the potency of new steroidal compounds obtained on the guinea-pig cardiac enzyme can be neither quantitatively nor qualitatively easily extrapolated to the human cardiac enzyme. The extrathermodynamic analysis of the data opened major new insights in the structure-activity relationships concerning the role of C14 beta-OH, the character of the lead structure in cardioactive steroid lactones, and the significance of the configuration of A/B ring junction.

Abstract
The effect of phospholipase C on two isozymes (alpha (+) and alpha forms) of rat brain (Na+ + K+)-ATPase and the temperature-dependence of their activities were investigated. Phospholipase C from Clostridium welchii inhibited the activities of the enzymes treated with and without pyrithiamin or N-ethylmaleimide, a preferential inhibitor of the alpha (+) form, but the extent of the inhibition was higher in the control enzyme than in the treated enzymes. The treatment of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase with phospholipase C altered a ratio between high- and low-affinity components for ouabain inhibition. It also caused the similar change in a ratio between the alpha (+) and alpha forms of Na+-stimulated phosphorylation from [gamma-32P]ATP. These findings indicate that the alpha (+) form of rat brain (Na+ + K+)-ATPase is more sensitive to phospholipase C than the alpha form. Analysis of Arrhenius plots of the activities of the control and pyrithiamin-treated enzymes showed that there was a difference between the two enzymes in a break point. We suggest that two isozymes of rat brain (Na+ + K+)-ATPase differ in the interaction with phospholipids or in the lipid-environment.

Abstract
There is a difference in phospholipid composition of cardiac (Na+ + K+)-ATPase preparations between species which are sensitive to ouabain and those which are not. Sphingomyelin is higher and phosphatidylcholine is lower in the enzymes from sensitive species than in those from insensitive ones. Lysophosphatidylcholine is detectable only in the latter preparations.

Abstract
The sequences of the first 14 amino acids of the (Na+,K+)-ATPase catalytic subunits from rat kidney (alpha) and rat brain axolemma (alpha(+)) have been determined. They are: (alpha), NH2-Gly-Arg-Asp-Lys-Tyr-Glu-Pro-Ala-Ala-Val-Ser-Glu-His-Gly; (alpha(+)), NH2-Gly-Arg-Glu-Tyr-Ser-Pro-Ala-Ala-Glu-Val-Ala-Glu-Val-Gly. Although they are highly homologous, it is clear these sequences are also sufficiently different to conclude they are the products of different genes, or at least different exons of the same, differentially spliced, gene. Among mammals, the amino terminal sequence of the kidney alpha chain is essentially invariant. Thus this section of the (Na+,K+)-ATPase molecule is more highly conserved in one tissue between several species than between different tissues in the same species. This may reflect upon the difference in function of the alpha and alpha(+) isozymes of (Na+,K+)-ATPase.

Abstract
Brain (Na+ + K+)-ATPase was protected by low concentrations of GSH from the inhibitory effect of pyrithiamin. The possible involvement of sulfhydryl groups in the inhibition was then studied by comparing the effect of pyrithiamin with that of N-ethylmaleimide on the enzyme. The treatment of rat brain (Na+ + K+)-ATPase with thesee inhibitors caused a significant decrease in reactivity of the enzyme to N-ethyl[3H]maleimide. N-Ethylmaleimide, like pyrithiamin, inhibited the partial reactions of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase system in parallel with the inhibition of the overall reaction. An SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis procedure indicated that pyrithiamin and N-ethylmaleimide inhibited Na+-dependent phosphorylation of the alpha(+) form of rat brain (Na+ + K+)-ATPase more than that of alpha, though the selectivity for the alpha(+) seemed to be higher with the former inhibitor than in the latter. The treatment also decreased sensitivity of the enzyme to ouabain inhibition. However, pyrithiamin- and N-ethylmaleimide-induced inactivations of the enzyme differed in the efficacy of GSH for protection and in the effect of the kind of ligands present during the reaction. Furthermore, pyrithiamin did not appear to interact directly with sulfhydryl groups, but caused the formation of disulfide in bovine brain (Na+ + K+)-ATPase. In contrast to N-ethylmaleimide, pyrithiamin did not affect the sulfhydryl-enzymes such as alcohol dehydrogenase and L-alanine dehydrogenase. It is concluded that pyrithiamin modifies the functional sulfhydryl groups of brain (Na+ + K+)-ATPase in a way different from N-ethylmaleimide and causes a structural change and inactivation of the enzyme.

Abstract
Cardiac (Na+ + K+)-ATPase from several species of animals were comparatively studied with respect to their molecular form and temperature dependence. The molecular weight of the catalytic subunit varied a little among species, but the difference did not correlate with the sensitivity of the enzyme to ouabain inhibition. Analysis of Arrhenius plots of the activities of the enzymes showed that enzymes showing break points of 24-25 degrees were relatively insensitive to ouabain inhibition whereas those enzymes with break points of 29-31 degrees were much more sensitive to the glycoside. This suggests that there is a difference in the interaction of cardiac (Na+ + K+)-ATPase with lipids between the ouabain-sensitive and -insensitive animals.

Abstract
The effect of thyroid status on the postnatal development of the two molecular forms of Na+,K+-ATPase, distinguished kinetically on the basis of their ouabain sensitivity, was examined in rat brain. Hypothyroidism induced by PTU from day 1 postnatally significantly reduced the Na+,K+-ATPase activity in cerebellum (22-30 days) but not forebrain, whereas hyperthyroidism (T4 treatment from day 1) had no effect. The hypothyroidism-induced reduction in cerebellum was reflected by a 20-45% reduction in the activity of the alpha(+) form of Na+,K+-ATPase (high ouabain affinity) against control brains compared to a 60-70% reduction in the activity of the alpha form (low ouabain affinity). These results show that neonatally induced hypothyroidism leads to a selectively greater impairment of the ontogenesis of the activity of cerebellar alpha form of Na+,K+-ATPase. This may possibly reflect a retarded development of a selective cerebellar cell population containing predominantly the alpha form of the enzyme.

Abstract
Na+-K+-ATPase is in low abundance in cardiac tissue. Therefore, we utilized antibodies to detect the cardiac Na+-K+-ATPase subunits and to compare their characteristics with those of kidney and brain Na+-K+-ATPase subunits. By using crude preparations of heart membranes as well as purified sarcolemmal membranes from guinea pig hearts, we resolved peptides by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate, blotted them onto diazotized paper, and detected Na+-K+-ATPase subunits with antibodies generated against highly purified kidney Na+-K+-ATPase holoenzyme. We tested the hypothesis that the two families of ouabain-binding affinities described in heart are due to two forms of alpha-subunit, analogous to the two forms with different affinities for ouabain described in brain. Although the antibodies did detect two forms of catalytic subunit in brain (alpha and alpha +), only one form of alpha was detected in the heart membranes, with the same electrophoretic mobility as kidney alpha. Cardiac beta-subunit could also be detected with the antikidney antibodies. It had a similar electrophoretic mobility to that described for kidney beta, whereas brain beta had a higher mobility.
