Abstract
The sodium(Na)- and potassium(K)-activated adenosine-triphosphatase (Na,K-ATPase) is a membrane enzyme that energizes the Na-pump by hydrolysing adenosine triphosphate and wasting energy as heat, so playing a role in thermogenesis and energy balance. Na,K-ATPase regulation by insulin is controversial; in tissue of hyperglycemic-hyperinsulinemic ob/ob mice, we reported a reduction, whereas in streptozotocin-treated hypoinsulinemic-diabetic Swiss and ob/ob mice we found an increased activity, which is against a genetic defect and suggests a regulation by hyperinsulinemia. In human adipose tissue from obese patients, Na,K-ATPase activity was reduced and negatively correlated with body mass index, oral glucose tolerance test-insulinemic area and blood pressure. We hypothesized that obesity is associated with tissue Na,K-ATPase reduction, apparently linked to hyperinsulinemia, which may repress or inactivate the enzyme, thus opposing thyroid hormones and influencing thermogenesis and obesity development. Insulin action on Na,K-ATPase, in vivo, might be mediated by the high level of non-esterified fatty acids, which are circulating enzyme inhibitors and increase in obesity, diabetes and hypertension. In this paper, we analyse animal and human tissue Na,K-ATPase, its level, and its regulation and behaviour in some hyperinsulinemic and insulin-resistant states; moreover, we discuss the link of the enzyme with non-esterified fatty acids and attempt to interpret and organize in a coherent view the whole body of the exhaustive literature on this complicated topic.

Abstract
Membranes lipids are one of the most adaptable molecules in response to perturbations. Even subtle changes of the composition of acyl chains or head groups can alter the packing arrangements of lipids within the bilayer. This changes the balance between bilayer and nonbilayer lipids, serving to affect bilayer stability and fluidity, as well as altering lipid-protein interactions. External factors can also change membrane fluidity and lipid composition; including temperature, chemicals, ions, pressure, nutrients and the growth phase of the microbial culture. Various biophysical techniques have been used to monitor fluidity changes within the bacterial membrane. In this review, bacterial cytoplasmic membrane changes and related functional effects will be examined as well as the use of fluorescence polarization methods and examples of data obtained from research with bacteria.

Abstract
Plasma levels of lipids, lipoproteins and lipid peroxides and erythrocyte Na(+)-K(+) ATPase, Mg(2+)ATPase and antioxidant enzymes were measured in type-2 diabetic patients. A significant decrease in Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity was observed in diabetic patients which was negatively correlated with blood glucose and lipid peroxides, while the Mg(2+)-ATPase activity was increased. In the diabetic subjects the plasma concentrations of Na(+) and K(+) were increased where as erythrocyte levels of Na(+) were increased and K(+) were decreased. Hyperlipidaemia and increased levels of lipid peroxides were observed in the diabetic subjects. There was a significant increase in erythrocyte catalase activity in diabetics which positively correlated with their lipid peroxides. There was no change in GPx activities between controls and diabetics.

Abstract
Erythrocytes of diabetic subjects (non-insulin dependent) were found to have eight- to ten-fold higher levels of endogenously formed thiobarbituric acid reactive malonyldialdehyde (MDA), thirteen-fold higher levels of phospholipid-MDA adduct, 15-20% reduced Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity with unchanged Ca+2-ATPase activity, as compared with the erythrocytes from normal healthy individuals. Incubation of normal erythrocytes with elevated concentrations (15-35 mM) of glucose, similar to that present in diabetic plasma, led to the increased lipid peroxidation, phospholipid-MDA adduct formation, reduction of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase (25-50%) and Ca+2-ATPase (50%) activities. 2-doxy-glucose was 80% as effective as glucose in the lipid peroxidation and lipid adduct formation. However, other sugars, such as fructose, galactose, mannose, fucose, glucosamine and 3-O-methylmannoside, and sucrose, tested at a concentration of 35 mM, resulted in reduced (20-30%) lipid peroxidation without the formation of lipid-MDA adduct. Kinetic studies show that reductions in Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase and Ca+2-ATPase activities precede the lipid peroxidation as the enzyme inactivation occur within 30 min of incubation of erythrocytes with high concentration (15-35 mM) of glucose, while lipid peroxidation product, MDA appears at 4 hr and lipid-MDA adducts at 8 hr. The lipoxygenase pathway inhibitors, 5,8,11-eicosatriynoic acid and Baicalein (5,6,7-trihydroxyflavone), reduced the glucose-induced lipid peroxidation by 30% and MDA-lipid adduct formation by 26%. Indomethacin, a cyclooxygenase pathway inhibitor, had no discernible effect on the lipid peroxidation in erythrocytes. However, the inhibitors of lipid peroxidation, 3-phenylpyrazolidone, metyrapone, and the inhibitors of lipoxygenase pathways did not ablate the glucose-induced reduction of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase and Ca+2-ATPase activities in erythrocytes. Erythrocytes produce 15-HETE (15-hydroxy-eicosatetraenoic acid), which is augmented by glucose. These results suggest that the formation of lipoxygenase metabolites potentiate the glucose-induced lipid peroxidation and that the inactivation of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase and Ca+2-ATPase occurs as a result of non-covalent interaction of glucose with these enzymes.

Abstract
The red cell membrane (Na+ +K+)-ATPase activity is significantly elevated in diabetes mellitus. The osmotic fragility of diabetic red cells is also increased. In vivo insulin treatment restores the enzyme activity and the osmotic fragility to the normal level. In vitro insulin treatment of diabetic red cells was found to inhibit the further increase in its activity, but it failed to restore the activity to the normal level as in vivo. In diabetes increased Km of (Na+ +K+) ATPase for ATP was observed but Vmax remained the same. Arrhenius plot of this enzyme was also altered in diabetes.

Abstract
Filtrability of erythrocytes obtained from uncontrolled Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetic patients is abnormal, but is corrected by insulin added in vivo or in vitro. As erythrocyte filtrability depends on several determinants, we chose to study a membrane property of erythrocytes from diabetic subjects. Membrane fluidity was studied by fluorescence polarization using a lipophilic probe, the diphenyl-hexatriene and the Coulter Epics V together with a laser Spectra-physics 2000. Fluorescence polarization values obtained for 31 normal subjects (0.253 +/- 0.043 SD) and 31 uncontrolled Type 1 diabetic patients (0.231 +/- 0.043 SD) were significantly different (p less than 0.01). Insulin (2.5.10(-9) mol/l) added in vitro increased the fluorescence polarization values of red cell membranes from diabetic patients (without insulin, fluorescence polarization values = 0.210 +/- 0.032 SD; with insulin, fluorescence polarization values = 0.253 +/- 0.024 SD, p less than 0.001, n = 15), but had no effect on normal membranes (without insulin fluorescence polarization values = 0.255 +/- 0.037 SD, with insulin, fluorescence polarization values = 0.251 +/- 0.026 SD; n = 12). Given a relationship between the lipid bilayer and membrane cytoskeleton proteins, this insulin-correctable abnormality of erythrocyte membrane fluidity may be an important determinant of the rheological behaviour of erythrocytes from diabetic patients.

Abstract
The effect of insulin on human red blood cells was investigated, both on intact cells and on isolated plasma membranes, testing the responsiveness of membrane-bound enzymes--such as (Na+-K+)-ATPase and 5'-nucleotidase--as well as the ouabain binding and ionic fluxes. It appears that insulin stimulates Na-pumping mechanisms increasing (Na+-K+)-ATPase activity through an enhanced availability of pumping sites, as can be inferred from the increased ouabain binding. The apparent unresponsiveness of fluorescence polarization parameters, following insulin treatment of isolated plasma membranes and intact cells, rules out--at present--an involvement of membrane lipid fluidity in the mechanism of action of insulin on human erythrocytes.

Abstract
Erythrocyte membranes from 11 healthy individuals and 11 alcoholic patients, examined within 24 hr of withdrawal, were studied for membrane fluidity as assessed by fluorescence polarization of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene and for the concentrations of sialic acid and galactose in the membrane surface. Basal fluorescence polarization was significantly higher in the alcoholics and the membranes were clearly more resistant to the fluidizing effect of ethanol added in vitro. The concentrations of sialic acid as well as galactose were significantly reduced in the patients. The increased resistance to the fluidizing effect of ethanol added in vitro appeared to be functionally related to reduced concentrations of terminal sialic acid and terminal and sialic acid-bound beta-galactose in the membrane surface. The increased basal rigidity is probably due to concomitant changes in the lipid bilayer of the membrane. The results also showed, for the first time, that similar perturbations of membrane fluidity occur in human alcoholics as have been found previously in chronically ethanol-treated animals.

Abstract
The effects of insulin (10(-10)-10(-8) mol/l) on lateral diffusion of three fluorescent lipid probes, 1-acyl-2-(N-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole)aminocaproyl phosphatidylcholine (NBD-PC), 5-(N-hexadecanoyl)aminofluorescein (F-C16), 5-(N-dodecanoyl)aminofluorescein (F-C12), and of fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled proteins in the plasma membrane of intact rat hepatocytes were studied by the technique of fluorescence recovery after photobleaching. The absolute lateral diffusion coefficients of the lipid analogues NBD-PC, F-C16 and F-C12 at 21 degrees C were 2.5 X 10(-9) cm2/s, 5.4 X 10(-9) cm2/s and 19 X 10(-9) cm2/s, respectively. The diffusion coefficient mean of proteins labeled with fluorescein isothiocyanate was 6.4 X 10(-10) cm2/s. Insulin at 10(-9) and 10(-8) mol/l reduced the lateral diffusion coefficient for F-C12- and F-C16-labeled cells by 20% and for NBD-PC-labeled cells by 30% (P less than 0.025). The insulin effect was specific as tested by cell incubation with proinsulin and desoctapeptide insulin (10(-8) mol/l) and was detectable after 7 min of insulin preincubation. In contrast to lateral diffusion of lipid probes, lateral mobility of unselected membrane proteins was not altered by insulin. The observed modulation of lipid dynamics in the plasma membrane of intact hepatocytes, by which a variety of membrane functions can be influenced, may be an important step in the mechanism of insulin action.

Abstract
The in vitro effect of porcine insulin on Na+ + K+, Ca2+- and Mg2+-ATPases of the rat erythrocyte membrane of normal and alloxan-induced diabetic rats was investigated. Na+ + K+- and Ca2+-stimulated enzyme activities were significantly decreased in diabetic rats in comparison to normal animals. The specific activities of both these ATPases in the latter group were markedly reduced on pre-incubating the ghosts with insulin. Similar treatment of the erythrocyte membranes of diabetic animals, however, resulted in a significant increase of these activities. These qualitatively different effects of the hormone in the two groups increased progressively with hormone concentration and duration of pre-incubation. Mg2+-stimulated ATPase activity was not significantly affected in diabetes or by insulin.

Abstract
Insulin increased the lipid order of rat and mouse liver plasma membrane domains sampled by the hydrophobic fluorescent probe 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene in a concentration-dependent saturable manner. The ordering is half maximal at 5.1 X 10(-11) M and fully saturated at 1.7 X 10(-10) M insulin. Membranes prepared from obese hyperglycemic (ob/ob) mice demonstrated a right-shift in the dose-dependent ordering induced by insulin, such that ordering was half maximal at 1.2 X 10(-10) M and fully saturated at 2.0 X 10(-10) M. Insulin also increased the order of rat liver plasma membranes labeled with the cis- and trans-parinaric acid methyl esters. The ordering caused by insulin as detected with cis methyl parinarate was complete within approx. 15 min. after hormone addition at 37 degrees C, and the ordering was approximately double that observed with the trans isomer. Additional ESR experiments demonstrated that the addition of insulin increased the outer hyperfine splittings of spectra recorded from membranes labeled with the steroid-like spin labels, nitroxide cholestane and nitroxide androstane, but not the fatty acid spin probe, 5-nitroxide stearate. Studies utilizing model membrane systems strongly suggest that the 5-nitroxide stearate samples a cholesterol-poor domain of the membrane, while the steroid-like probes preferentially sample cholesterol-rich regions of the membrane. Finally, insulin-induced membrane ordering was dose-dependently inhibited by cytochalasin B in the range 1-50 microM. From these results, we conclude that (1) the ordering effect of insulin addition to isolated liver plasma membrane fractions occurs within the physiological range of hormone concentration, and the dose-response is right-shifted in membranes from 'insulin resistant' animals; (2) the relative responses of the fluorescent and spin probes suggest that the effects of insulin are confined to specific domains within the membrane matrix; and (3) the direct effects of insulin on the membranes may involve protein components having cytochalasin B binding sites.
