Abstract
Hypoxia has become one of the major environmental problems in the aquaculture industry. As one of the most commercially important bivalves, Manila clam Ruditapes philippinarum may be suffering substantial mortality attributable to hypoxia. The physiological and molecular responses to hypoxia stress in Manila clam were evaluated at two levels of low dissolved oxygen: 0.5 mg/L (DO 0.5 mg/L) and 2.0 mg/L (DO 2.0 mg/L). With the prolongation of hypoxia stress, the mortality rate was 100% at 156 h under DO 0.5 mg/L. In contrast, 50% of clams survived after 240 h of stress at DO 2.0 mg/L. After the hypoxia stress, some severe structural damages were observed in gill, axe foot, hepatopancreas tissues, such as cell rupture and mitochondrial vacuolization. For the hypoxia-stressed clams, the significant rise and decline of enzyme activity (LDH and T-AOC) was observed in gills, in contrast to the reduction of glycogen content. Furthermore, the expression levels of genes related to energy metabolism (SDH, PK, Na+/K+-ATPase, NF-κB and HIF-1α) was significantly affected by the hypoxia stress. It is therefore suggested that the short-term survival of clams under hypoxia may be dependent on stress protection by antioxidants, energy allocation, and tissue energy reserves (such as glycogen stores). Despite this, the prolongation of hypoxia stress at DO 2.0 mg/L may cause the irreversible damages of cellular structures in clam tissues, eventually leading to the death of clams. We therefore support the hypothesis that the extent of hypoxia impacts on marine bivalves may be underestimated in the coastal areas.

Abstract
Our study investigated the protective effects of ((E)-N-(4-(((2-amino-5-phenylpyridin-3-yl)imino)methyl)pyridin-2-yl)cyclopropanecarboxamide) 9b, a novel glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) inhibitor, on the learning and memory function of rats with amyloid-β1-42 (Aβ1-42)-induced Alzheimer's disease (AD) and explored the possible mechanisms. Sixty male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into five groups: the control, Aβ, donepezil, and low-dose and high-dose 9b groups. The rats in the Aβ, donepezil, and two 9b intervention groups received a single microinjection of 10 μg of Aβ1-42 into the hippocampus followed by intragastric administration of 0.5% sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC-Na), 12 (mg/kg)/d donepezil hydrochloride and 6 or 18 (mg/kg)/d compound 9b for 28 days, while the rats in the control group were treated with the vehicles. Learning and memory impairment were attenuated, the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), acetylcholinesterase (AChE), and adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) in the brain tissue were significantly increased (p < 0.05), and the concentrations of Aβ1-42, phospho-tau (p-tau), and malondialdehyde (MDA) in the brain tissue were significantly decreased (p < 0.05) in the compound 9b group compared to the Aβ group. In addition, compound 9b regulated the imbalance in the concentrations of neurotransmitters and alleviated severe damage and apoptosis in the brains of the rats exposed to Aβ1-42. The novel GSK-3β inhibitor 9b could improve learning and memory dysfunction caused by Aβ1-42 through its antioxidant and antiapoptotic effects.

Abstract
Experimental models of traumatic cortical brain injury in rodents reveal that specific regions of the hippocampus (e.g., CA3 and hilar subfields) are severely injured despite their distance from the initial insult. Hippocampal neurons may be intrinsically more vulnerable to mechanical insult than cortical neurons due to increased NMDA receptor densities and lower energy capacities, as evidenced by increased susceptibility to ischemic insults. The selective vulnerability of hippocampal neurons was evaluated using an in vitro model of TBI in which either primary rat cortical or hippocampal neurons (E17) seeded onto silicone substrates were subjected to graded levels of mechanical stretch. Although cortical neurons exhibited significantly longer increases in stretch-induced membrane permeability, injury of hippocampal neurons resulted in larger increases in intracellular free calcium concentration [Ca(2+)](i) and cell death. [ATP](i) deficits due to stretch were apparent by 60 min after injury in cortical neurons but recovered by 24 h, whereas significant deficits in [ATP](i) were not observed in hippocampal neurons until 24 h after injury. MK801 pretreatment decreased the stretch-induced [Ca(2+)](i) transients in both hippocampal and cortical cultures, thereby negating the regional specificity. However, MK801 pretreatment did not improve hippocampal viability and paradoxically, significantly increased cell death among cortical neurons. As the hippocampus is the primary brain region responsible for the memory deficits and epileptic seizures associated with TBI, understanding why this region is selectively damaged could lead to the development of more accurate mechanical tolerances as well as effective pharmaceutical agents.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown decreased erythrocyte membrane (EM) Na,K-ATPase activity in chronic patients suffering from schizophrenia (SCH). There are no data about changes at the onset of psychosis and enzyme kinetics. Increased lipid peroxidation could be responsible for alterations in Na,K-ATPase activity. Substrate kinetics pattern of EM Na,K-ATPase and levels of lipid peroxides in plasma and erythrocytes were measured in (1) patients with first episode of psychosis (n=20) before medication and after the first 3 weeks of treatment, (2) chronic medicated schizophrenic patients (n=52) in the exacerbation phase, and (3) age- and sex-matched control subjects (n=30). All patients were assigned to groups with predominantly positive or predominantly negative symptoms on the basis of their scores on Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). In first-episode patients with predominantly negative symptoms before treatment, uncompetitive inhibition of Na,K-ATPase was noticed. The first-episode patients with predominantly positive symptoms had increased enzyme catalytic activity. After 3 weeks of treatment, activities were normalized in both groups. Among chronic patients, uncompetitive inhibition was found only in patients with predominantly negative symptoms. Plasma lipid peroxides (thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances [TBARS]) were elevated in both groups of patients with first episode of psychosis. Despite the presence of peroxidative injury indicative for the loss of membrane phospholipid essential fatty acids, the activities of Na,K-ATPase differ between SCH (+) and SCH (-) patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the correlation between diffusion-weighted (DW) magnetic resonance (MR) image changes with alterations in extracellular volume and changes in cytochrome oxidase and Na(+)-K(+)-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity at various times during and after cerebral hypoxia-ischemia in neonatal and juvenile rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS One- and 4-week-old rats were randomly assigned to control or transient cerebral hypoxia-ischemia (ie, right carotid artery occlusion plus exposure to 8% oxygen) groups. Hypoxic-ischemic changes compared with normal ipsilateral brain tissue on DW images and the apparent diffusion coefficient of water were measured during and at 1 and 24 hours after hypoxia-ischemia ended. Hypoxic-ischemic changes in extracellular space and ipsilateral versus contralateral differences in Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase and cytochrome oxidase activity were measured. RESULTS Hyperintensities on DW images obtained during hypoxia-ischemia correlated well (P <.05) with extracellular space reductions, which occurred 15 minutes earlier in the brains of 4-week-old rats than in the brains of 1-week-old rats. Similarly, within 1 hour after hypoxia-ischemia ended, DW image and extracellular space changes normalized. In contrast, Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase and cytochrome oxidase activity decreased in some regions during hypoxia-ischemia and remained reduced 1 hour after the end of hypoxia-ischemia. Twenty-four hours after signal intensity normalization, hyperintense areas reappeared on DW images, and Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase and cytochrome oxidase activity remained decreased. CONCLUSION Signal intensity alterations with diffusion-sensitive MR imaging during and after transient hypoxia-ischemia are closely associated with a corresponding shrinkage and reexpansion of the extracellular space, irrespective of age. Mechanisms other than Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase changes may induce the early cell volume changes detected with diffusion-sensitive MR imaging.

Abstract
We investigated the effect of focal cerebral ischaemia on the activity and the affinity of the ouabain sites of Na+,K+-ATPase in the mouse. The Na+,K+-ATPase activity was decreased by 38% as early as 30 min following ischaemia. In the sham group, the dose-response curves for ouabain disclosed three inhibitory states which contribute, respectively, 24.9 +/- 6.7%, 39.1 +/- 7.5% and 36.0% of the total activity (low affinity, LA; high affinity, HA and very high affinity, VHA, respectively). Their computed IC50 values are, respectively: 1.3 X 10(-3) M, 4.5 X 10(-6) M and 2.9 X 10(-9) M. Surprisingly, in ischaemic cortices, only two sites for ouabain were detected. The first site exhibits a LA (IC50 = 2.0 X 10[-4] M) but its relative contribution to the total activity (46.1 +/- 5.2%) is twice that noted for the LA site in non-ischaemic tissues. The second site presents an affinity intermediate between those of HA and VHA sites of the sham group (IC50 = 1.7 X 10[-7] M) and contributes 53.9% to the total activity. Loss in the specific activity of the second site explains that of the total activity. The most likely explanation in the presence of only two ouabain sites of Na+,K+-ATPase following ischaemia may be a change in ouabain affinity of alpha2 and/or alpha3 isoforms, as the presence of all three alpha isoforms has been observed by Western blotting. These results suggest that ischaemia induces intrinsic modifications in Na+,K+-ATPase which result from perturbations in membrane integrity and/or association of the alpha isoforms of this enzyme.

Abstract
The postsynaptic actions of glutamate are rapidly terminated by high affinity glutamate uptake into glial cells. In this study we demonstrate the stimulation of both glutamate uptake and Na,K-ATPase activity in rat astrocyte cultures in response to sublethal ischemia-like insults. Primary cultures of neonatal rat cortical astrocytes were subjected to hypoxia, or to serum- and glucose-free medium, or to both conditions (ischemia). Cell death was assessed by propidium iodide staining of cell nuclei. To measure sodium pump activity and glutamate uptake, 3H-glutamate and 86Rb were both simultaneously added to the cell culture in the presence or absence of 2 mM ouabain. Na,K-ATPase activity was defined as ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake. Concomitant transient increases (2-3 times above control levels) of both Na,K-ATPase and glutamate transporter activities were observed in astrocytes after 4-24 h of hypoxia, 4 h of glucose deprivation, and 2-4 h of ischemia. A 24 h ischemia caused a profound loss of both activities in parallel with significant cell death. The addition of 5 mM glucose to the cells after 4 h ischemia prevented the loss of both sodium pump activity and glutamate uptake and rescued astrocytes from death observed at the end of 24 h ischemia. Reoxygenation after the 4 h ischemic event caused the selective inhibition of Na,K-ATPase activity. The observed increases in Na,K-ATPase activity and glutamate uptake in cultured astrocytes subjected to sublethal ischemia-like insults may model an important functional response of astrocytes in vivo by which they attempt to maintain ion and glutamate homeostasis under restricted energy and oxygen supply.

Abstract
We studied the activity and kinetic parameters of synaptosomal Na, K-ATPase during 15 min of forebrain ischemia and following 60 min of reperfusion produced by reversible common carotid occlusion in Mongolian gerbils. A synaptosomal fraction was obtained by both differential centrifugation of brain tissue homogenate and centrifugation of crude mitochondrial fraction at a discontinual sucrose density gradient. We found two components of ATP concentration dependence of ATP hydrolysis that represent two types of ATP-binding sites: high affinity and low affinity. Neither ischemia nor reperfusion affected kinetic parameters of a high-affinity site. However, low-affinity site parameters were affected by both ischemia and ischemia followed by reperfusion. Maximal velocity (Vmax) decreased by 43 and 42% after ischemia and after ischemia/reperfusion, respectively. The apparent Km for ATP decreased by 52% after ischemia and by 47% after ischemia/reperfusion. The apparent affinities for K+ and Na+ were determined from the ATP hydrolysis rate as a function of Na+ and K+ concentrations. We found the half-maximal activation constant for K+ (KaK+) increased by 60% after ischemia and by 146% after ischemia/reperfusion. On the other hand, we found that KaNa+ decreased significantly after ischemia/reperfusion (16%). We concluded that it is the dephosphorylation step of the ATPase reaction cycle that is primarily affected by both ischemia and ischemia/reperfusion. This might be caused by alteration of the protein molecule and/or its surroundings subsequent to ischemia.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the substrate (ATP) kinetics of erythrocyte membrane Na, K-ATPase in children with borderline or essential hypertension. Although the activity of Na, K-ATPase in the presence of in vivo concentrations of ATP was not significantly altered, kinetic studies showed an obvious inhibition of enzyme activity in the erythrocyte membrane of children with borderline or essential hypertension. Hanes plot analysis revealed a decrease of V(max) from 7.19 in erythrocytes from control subjects to 4.93 and 3.33 in those from children with borderline or essential hypertension, respectively. A mean value of the K(m) decreased from 0.10 in the control to 0.08 and 0.02 in children with borderline or essential hypertension, respectively. The energy status of erythrocytes, estimated by ATP, ADP and AMP levels, ATP/ADP ratio, and adenylate energy charge (AEC) was not significantly changed in the cells from hypertensive children. The use of a free radical-generating system (FeSO4/ascorbate) in vitro significantly reduced enzyme activity in the control erythrocytes while in those from hypertensive children it was abolished completely. The level of lipid peroxides was considerably higher (+ 37 per cent) in the plasma, while that of reduced glutathione was significantly lower both in the erythrocytes and the plasma of children with essential hypertension than in healthy children. These results indicate significant alterations of the antioxidant status which could be the cause of the inhibited Na, K-ATPase activity in erythrocyte membranes from hypertensive children.

Abstract
Na,K-ATPase activity, membrane lipid peroxidation (TBARM), and membrane 'leakiness' for small molecules were examined in rat cerebromicrovascular endothelial cells (RCEC) following exposure to hydrogen peroxide and xanthine/xanthine oxidase. Whereas short-term (15-30 min) exposure to either oxidant decreased ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake and increased TBARM in a concentration-dependent fashion, significant release of 51Cr (30-40%) from cells was observed only after one hour exposure to the oxidants. By comparison, much longer exposure times (i.e., 4 hours) were needed to induce significant lactate dehydrogenase release from oxidant-treated cells. The oxidant-evoked decrease in Na,K-ATPase activity and increases in TBARM and RCEC 'permeability' were abolished in the presence of the steroid antioxidants U-74500A and U-74389G (5-20 microM). Reduced glutathione (4 mM) partially attenuated oxidant-induced changes, whereas ascorbic acid (2 mM) and the disulfide bond-protecting agent, dithiothreitol (1 mM), were ineffective. These results suggest that the oxidant-induced loss of Na,K-ATPase activity in RCEC results primarily from changes in membrane lipids, and implicate both the inhibition of Na,K-ATPase and membrane lipid peroxidation in the mechanism responsible for the delayed free radical-induced increase in RCEC membrane 'permeability'.

Abstract
Bilateral common carotid artery occlusion (15 min.) followed by two hours of recirculation reduced mitochondrial superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione reductase (GR) activities, and increased susceptibility of mitochondrial membranes to in vitro lipid peroxidation in brain regions (i.e., cortex, striatum and hippocampus) of Mongolian gerbil. Intraperitoneal bolus injection (2 mg/kg b.w.) of liposome-entrapped CuZn superoxide dismutase (1-SOD) increased the endogenous SOD activity in normal brain tissue and, when given at the end of ischemia, counteracted both the ischemic reduction of endogenous SOD and the increased peroxidation of mitochondrial membranes. 1-SOD treatment was ineffective in reducing brain swelling, suggesting that superoxide radicals are not a main participant in the process of (post)ischemic brain edema formation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Reduction of cerebral blood flow results in several acute metabolic disturbances, including a reduction in Na,K-ATPase activity. The relation between this reduction and the onset of edema is unknown, as is the effect of restoration of blood flow. Therefore, we investigated the role of decreased Na,K-ATPase activity in the pathogenesis and time course of ischemic brain edema and reperfusion. METHODS The middle cerebral arteries of rats were occluded by cannulation with a nylon suture for 30, 60, 120, or 240 minutes. The animals were then decapitated (permanent occlusion) or the suture was withdrawn to allow 24 hours of reperfusion before decapitation (temporary occlusion). Na,K-ATPase activity and Na+, K+ and water contents were measured at various intervals. RESULTS In the ischemic hemisphere, Na,K-ATPase activity was significantly decreased at 30, 60, 120, and 240 minutes of permanent occlusion (p less than 0.05). There was also a significant decrease in rats subjected to 60 or 120 minutes of temporary occlusion followed by 24 hours of reperfusion. Water content increased after 60, 120, or 240 minutes of permanent occlusion (p less than 0.01); after 24 hours of reperfusion, water content remained elevated (p less than 0.01). The Na+ content increased after both permanent and temporary occlusion, and the K+ content decreased only after permanent occlusion. Increases in water content correlated with decreases in Na,K-ATPase activity after temporary occlusion and with the Na+:K+ ratio after permanent occlusion. CONCLUSION Reduction in Na,K-ATPase activity resulting in disruption of cellular ionic homeostasis may account for early development of cytotoxic brain edema after permanent occlusion of the middle cerebral artery. Such edema is also present 24 hours after 60 and 120 but not 30 minutes of temporary occlusion.

Abstract
In order to investigate the role of Na+,K(+)-ATPase in the development of neuronal necrosis following cerebral ischemia, ischemia was induced in gerbils by occluding the common carotid artery unilaterally for 10 min. A time-course analysis revealed that significant reductions of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus were manifested at 15 min, 30 min, and 1 h, and returned to the control level one day following recirculation. No apparent alterations of the Mg(2+)-ATPase activity, on the other hand, were obtained throughout the experimental period. Furthermore, Scatchard analyses of [3H]ouabain binding to the cerebral cortex membranes disclosed that the Bmax values invariably decreased without any change of Kd values following ischemia. It has also been shown that treatment of the animals with an agent known to mitigate ischemic neuronal necrosis, i.e. BY-1949, significantly reversed such derangements. These results suggest that the recovery of decreased Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity shortly after ischemia exerts a protective effect against ischemic brain damage.
