Abstract
BACKGROUND To determine whether photobiomodulation (PBM) rescued the disruption of Na+/Ca2+ homeostasis and mitochondrial membrane potential by ouabain; the Na, K-ATPase inhibitor. For PBM in this study, a 660 nm LED array was used at energy densities of 0.78, 1.56, 3.12, 6.24, and 9.36 J/cm2. RESULTS HCN-2 neuronal cells treated with ouabain showed loss of cell polarity, disrupted cell morphology, and decreased cell viability, which were improved after PBM treatment. We found that ouabain-induced Na, K-ATPase inhibition promoted activation of downstream signaling through Src, Ras, and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), which were suppressed after PBM treatment. This provided evidence of Na, K-ATPase α-subunit inactivation and intracellular Ca2+ increase. In response to ouabain, we observed activation of Src and MAPK by Na, K-ATPase, decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, and Na+-dependent Ca2+ increases, which were restored by PBM treatment. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that Na+/K+ imbalance could be regulated by PBM treatment in neuronal cells, and we suggest that PBM is a potential therapeutic tool for Na, K-ATPase targeted neuronal diseases.

Abstract
To determine the therapeutic potential of cardiac glycosides in androgen-independent prostate cancer, we examined ouabain-induced cytotoxic effect as well as the signaling pathways in PC-3 cells. Ouabain induced a time- and concentration-dependent cytotoxicity using mitochondrial MTT reduction assays, and the effective threshold concentration was in nanomolar level. At the concentrations less than 10 nM, ouabain induced a decrease of mitochondrial activity until a 7-hr exposure was performed, while it induced a rapid drop of mitochondrial function as early as a 2-hr treatment of cells with high concentrations of ouabain suggesting the involvement of two distinct mechanisms to ouabain action. After functional examinations, the data showed that both low and high concentrations of ouabain induced an inhibition of Na+-K+ ATPase and a subsequent 45Ca2+ influx into PC-3 cells. High concentrations of ouabain induced a significant and time-dependent loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (Deltapsim), a sustained production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and severe apoptotic reaction. Ouabain also induced an increase of Par-4 (prostate apoptosis response 4) expression. Furthermore, an antisense, but not nonsense, oligomer against Par-4 expression significantly inhibited the cytotoxicity induced by low concentrations of ouabain. It is suggested that ouabain induces two modes of cytotoxic effect in human hormone-independent prostate cancer PC-3 cells. Low concentrations of ouabain induce the increase of Par-4 expression and sensitize the cytotoxicity; while high concentrations of ouabain induce a loss of Deltapsim, a sustained ROS production and a severe apoptosis in PC-3 cells.

Abstract
Using digital imaging microscopy with the sodium-sensitive fluorescent indicator sodium-binding benzofuran isophtalate (SBFI), we examined the cytosolic free sodium ion concentration ([Na+]i) in single chick-embryo heart cells. The distribution of the [Na+]i was homogeneous within one cell, but we found a wide cell to cell variation in the range of 3 to 18 mM [Na+]i. In contrast to former experiments showing a heterogeneity of chick-embryo heart cells with respect to their [Ca2+]i (Ahlemeyer et al. (1992) Eur. J. Biochem. 205, 269-275), we could not distinguish cell populations with different [Na+]i. We found a lognormal distribution of the resting [Na+]i with a median value of 8.8 mM with a standard deviation of 4.5 mM (n = 90). After the addition of varying concentrations of ouabain, we found a biphasic dose-response curve as measured by the increase in [Na+]i. Ouabain showed its half-maximal effect on the [Na+]i between 10(-9) M and 10(-8) M and at 4.3.10(-6) M under steady-state conditions. The finding of a heterogeneity of chick-embryo heart cells with respect to their ouabain-induced increase in [Na+]i is consistent with our previous observations of cells differing in their [Ca2+]i and in the sensitivity of their sodium pumps to cardiac glycosides.

Abstract
Although digoxin remains one of the most widely prescribed drugs in the United States, potential pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic interactions between this compound and other drugs, diseases, and events commonly encountered in the perioperative period remain largely unappreciated. Furthermore, the therapeutic benefit of discontinuing or initiating digoxin treatment preoperatively remains unclear. We present a basic review of current knowledge regarding digoxin pharmacology and examine those concepts from the perspective of clinical anesthesiologists.

Abstract
In cell cultures of 10-day-old chick embryo hearts, we found two cell populations, one with high intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) of 116 +/- 34 nM (S.E., high [Ca2+]i cells, n = 154) and another one with low [Ca2+]i of 46 +/- 14 nM [Ca2+]i (S.E., low [Ca2+]i cells, n = 171), as revealed by fura-2 digital imaging fluorescence microscopy. The proportion of the high [Ca2+]i cells varied as a function of the cell density from 10-60% of all cells. Histochemical staining of the cells showed that cells with high and low [Ca2+]i did not represent differences between muscle and non-muscle cells. When the cells were exposed to different concentrations of ouabain, the high [Ca2+]i cells showed a half maximal effect at 2.10(-9) M ouabain, but only a small increase in [Ca2+]i of 30%. The low [Ca2+]i cells reached their half maximal increase in [Ca2+]i at 4.10(-8) M ouabain. A second increase in [Ca2+]i in this cell type was observed between 10(-6) and 10(-5) M ouabain. Toxic concentrations of ouabain produced an excessive increase in [Ca2+]i in low [Ca2+]i cells, whereas high [Ca2+]i cells showed morphological degeneration due to their higher sensitivity to ouabain. In conclusion, we demonstrate that chick embryo heart contains cells with high and low [Ca2+]i which show differences in the sensitivity of their sodium pumps to cardiac glycosides.

Abstract
Digital-imaging fluorescence microscopy with fura-2 allows the determination of intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) in single cells. At a cell density of 10(5) cells/petri dish 44% of the chick embryo heart cells had a high [Ca2+]i of 99.4 +/- 7.1 nM and 56% of the cells a low [Ca2+]i of 27.8 +/- 4.4 nM (mean +/- SE). This laboratory previously reported that high-[Ca2+]i and low-[Ca2+]i cells from chick embryo hearts differ in their sensitivity to cardiac glycosides, as shown by measuring the increase in [Ca2+]i to reach a new steady state [Ahlemeyer, B., Weintraut, H., Seibold, G. & Schoner, W. (1991) in The sodium pump: recent developments (Kaplan, J. H. & De Weer, P., eds) pp. 653-656, Rockefeller University Press, New York]. This time we used N-hydroxysuccinimidyl digoxigenin-3-O-methylcarbonyl-epsilon-aminocaproate (HDMA) which binds irreversibly to amino groups of the Na+/K(+)-ATPase, and sheep anti-digoxigenin Fab fragments coupled with fluorescein isothiocyanate to identify different cardiac glycoside-binding sites. Half-maximal labelling of high-[Ca2+]i cells was obtained at 0.36 nM HDMA, and at 12.0 nM with the low-[Ca2+]i cells. Specific labelling of the cells by HDMA was 91% and 80% in high-[Ca2+]i and low-[Ca2+]i cells, respectively, as revealed by competition experiments with a 1000-fold excess of ouabain. HDMA half-maximally elevated the [Ca2+]i of high-[Ca2+]i cells at a concentration of 50 pM and that of low-[Ca2+]i cells at 8.0 nM. Concentrations higher than 0.1 microM produced signs of intoxication. When the labelled cells were subjected to a SDS/PAGE, a 100-kDa band was found to contain HDMA. The electrophoretic mobility of a protein labelled at 10 nM HDMA was slightly higher than that of a protein labelled at 1.0 microM. The data suggest that different isoforms of the alpha-subunit of Na+/K(+)-ATPase may exist in low-[Ca2+]i and high-[Ca2+]i cells of chick embryo heart.

Abstract
The effect of inhibition of Na+/K(+)-ATPase by ouabain on the arginine vasopressin (AVP)-induced increase in intracellular Na+ concentration [( Na+]i) was examined in cultured rat vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) by the direct measurement of [Na+]i using a fluorescent indicator dye. AVP at a concentration of 1 x 10(-9) M or higher increased [Na+]i in a dose-dependent manner in cultured rat VSMC. The preincubation of cells with 1 x 10(-4) M ouabain for 1 hr at 37 degrees C did not affect the basal [Na+]i but enhanced the 1 x 10(-6) M AVP-induced increase in [Na+]i. The preincubation was not necessary because similar results were obtained after the simultaneous administration of AVP and ouabain. The treatment with ouabain did not affect the intracellular pH changes induced by AVP. These results therefore indicate that the inhibition of Na+/K(+)-ATPase enhances the AVP-induced increase in [Na+]i by decreasing cellular Na+ efflux in cultured rat VSMC.

Abstract
We investigated the presence of Na+/H+ exchange in cultured bovine adrenal medullary cells. The intracellular pH in control cells measured by 5,5-dimethyl[2-14C]oxazolidine-2,4-dione was 7.13 +/- 0.02 (n = 6). Removal of Na+ from the incubation medium shifted the intracellular pH down to 6.67 +/- 0.12 (n = 6). Reintroduction of Na+ to the medium caused a rapid recovery in intracellular pH to 7.20-7.30 that was associated with an increase in uptake of 22Na+ by the cells. Both increases in intracellular pH and uptake of 22Na+ were inhibited by amiloride, an inhibitor of Na+/H+ exchange. The recovery of intracellular pH by addition of Na+ was partially inhibited by quinidine, another inhibitor of Na+/H+ exchange, but not by 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid, an anion-exchange (Cl-/HCO3-) inhibitor. Li+ could substitute for Na+ in the recovery of intracellular pH. Carbachol caused an increase in intracellular pH from 7.12 +/- 0.01 to 7.21 +/- 0.02 (n = 10). This increase in intracellular pH caused by carbachol was inhibited by amiloride. These results suggest the existence of an amiloride-sensitive Na+/H+ exchange that regulates the intracellular pH in adrenal medullary cells.

Abstract
We compared the abilities of digoxin and aminogalactose digitoxigenin (ASI-222) to bind to, or inhibit, purified dog heart Na+,K+-ATPase in the presence of 1, 10, or 80 mM potassium chloride. Changing the potassium concentration from 1 to 10 mM increased the dose producing 50% inhibition of enzyme activity (IC50) by 9- and 2.5-fold for digoxin and ASI-222 respectively. Raising the potassium concentration to 80 mM increased the IC50 for digoxin 3-fold but did not alter significantly the IC50 for ASI-222. Equilibrium binding studies showed that this enzyme exhibited a single class of specific binding sites for both digoxin and ASI-222. Raising the potassium concentration did not affect the maximum number of binding sites (Bmax) but increased the apparent dissociation constant (KD) for digoxin. Potassium differentially affected the affinity and number of binding sites for ASI-222; raising the potassium concentration from 1 to 10 mM did not affect the Bmax or the KD, but raising it to 80 mM increased both. The effect of i.v. infusion of potassium chloride upon cardiac upon cardiac arrhythmias produced by i.v. infusion of digoxin or ASI-222 in anesthetized dogs was also determined. Infusion of potassium chloride reversed the cardiac arrhymias due to digoxin to normal rhythm, but not those due to ASI-222. In conclusion, the interaction of digoxin and the polar digitalis agent, ASI-222, with dog heart Na+,K+-ATPase was differentially affected by potassium. These agents also also produced cardiac arrhythmias, which were differentially affected by potassium.

Abstract
Isolation of cardiac ventricular myocytes from newborn rats (0-4 days old) by use of elutriation centrifugation is described. By the use of fractional centrifugation, a homogeneous myocyte population with high purity was obtained without any further procedures, yielding about 10(6) myocytes/rat. When 48-hr monolayer cultures were established, the cells showed normal pulsatory contractions. A morphological evaluation of such cultures is given.

Abstract
To characterize the molecular properties conveyed by the isoforms of the alpha subunit of Na,K-ATPase, the two major transepithelial transporting organs in the brine shrimp (Artemia salina), the salt glands and intestines, were isolated in pure form. The alpha isoforms were quantified by ATP-sensitive fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) labeling. The salt gland enzyme exhibits only the alpha 1 isoform, whereas the intestinal enzyme exhibits both the alpha 1 and the alpha 2 isoforms. After 32 hours of development, Na,K-ATPase activity [in mumol Pi/mg protein/hr (1 mu)] in whole homogenates was 32 +/- 6 in the salt glands and 12 +/- 3 in the intestinal preparations (mean +/- SEM). The apparent half-maximal activation constants (K1/2) of the salt gland enzyme as compared to the intestinal enzyme were 3.7 +/- 0.6 mM vs. 23.5 +/- 4 mM (P less than 0.01) for Na+, 16.6 +/- 2.2 mM vs. 8.29 +/- 1.5 mM for K+ (P less than 0.01), and 0.87 +/- 0.8 mM vs. 0.79 +/- 1.1 mM for ATP (NS). The apparent Ki's for ouabain inhibition were 1.1 x 10(-4) M vs. 2 x 10(-5) M, respectively. Treatment of whole homogenates with deoxycholic acid (DOC) produced a maximal Na,K-ATPase activation of 46% in the salt gland as compared to 23% in the intestinal enzyme. Similar differences were found with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). The two distinct forms of Na,K-ATPase isolated from the brine shrimp differed markedly in three kinetic parameters as well as in detergent sensitivity.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The effects of trimetazidine were studied on plasma membrane structures of cardiac cells which control excitability, as well as on cardiac cells that were cultured in normal physiologic conditions and after intracellular acidification. When cardiac cells were kept in normal physiologic conditions, trimetazidine at concentrations ranging from 10(-8) to 3.10(-4) M interacted neither directly nor indirectly with the major ionic transporter systems of cardiac cells, such as ionic channels (Na+, K+), ATPase, Na+/H+, and Na+/Ca2+ exchange systems. Under acid-load conditions trimetazide acts in a dose- and time-dependent manner, in limiting the accumulation of Na+ and Ca2+ inside cardiac cells and depressing intracellular cell acidosis. It is proposed that trimetazidine plays a key role in limiting the intracellular accumulation of protons that is responsible for cell acidosis during ischemia. Trimetazidine, in protecting cardiac cells against accumulation of protons, limits accumulation of Na+ and Ca2+.

Abstract
Kinetics of [3H]ouabain binding to intact cardiac cells were examined using myocytes obtained from guinea-pig heart. In intact cells, the use of excess unlabeled ouabain results in an under-estimation of nonspecific binding, presumably due to cytotoxic effects of the unlabeled glycoside; estimation of the specific binding, as that to rapidly releasing sites yields more accurate results. Specific [3H]ouabain binding to myocytes is promoted by an increase in Na+ influx, indicating that normal intracellular Na+ concentration is insufficient to fully stimulate glycoside binding. High concentrations of [3H]ouabain seem to increase the apparent affinity of binding sites for the glycoside via increases in intracellular Na+ concentration resulting from sodium-pump inhibition; hence the binding reaction may be regarded as having a novel type of cooperativity. This cooperativity has kinetics different from those of classical positive cooperativity based on binding-site interactions, and is apparent with toxic concentrations of the glycoside that cause marked increases in intracellular Na+ concentrations.

Abstract
The sodium pump, Na+-K+-ATPase, possesses two populations of cardiac glycoside-binding sites in cardiac tissue. This has been observed in other tissues such as brain where the two sites have been assigned to isozymes of Na+-K+-ATPase termed alpha and alpha +. In a previous study [Am. J. Physiol. 248 (Cell Physiol. 17): C247-C251, 1985], we were unable to demonstrate the presence of an alpha +-form in guinea pig heart sarcolemmal membranes using antibody probes. In the present study, using similar methodology, we show that dog, but not rat or guinea pig, sarcolemmal membranes contain two immunologically distinct alpha-subunits. The antibody-binding characteristics of dog heart alpha and alpha + are similar to the forms found in brain. The relative abundance of the two isozymes, estimated by labeling the sarcolemmal membranes with fluorescein 5'-isothiocyanate, was about equal. We conclude that the two populations of ouabain-binding sites in dog heart may result, at least in part, from the presence of the two isozymes of Na+-K+-ATPase in cardiac tissue of this species.

Abstract
The possible existence of multiple [3H]ouabain binding sites and the relationship between ouabain binding and Na-K pump inhibition in cardiac muscle were studied using cultured embryonic chick heart cells. [3H]ouabain bound to a single class of sites in 0.5 mM K (0.5 Ko) with an association rate constant (k+1) of 3.4 X 10(4) M-1.s-1 and a dissociation rate constant (k-1) of 0.0095 s-1 [corrected]. Maximal specific [3H]ouabain binding RT to myocyte-enriched cultures is 11.7 pmol/mg protein and Kd is 0.43 microM in 0.5 Ko, whereas Kd,apparent is 6.6 microM in 5.4 Ko. The number of binding sites per myocyte was calculated by correcting for the contribution of fibroblasts in myocyte-enriched cultures using data from homogeneous fibroblast cultures (RT = 3.3 pmol/mg protein; Kd = 0.19 microM in 0.5 Ko). Equivalence of [3H]ouabain binding sites and Na-K pumps was implied by agreement between maximal specific binding of [3H]ouabain and 125I-labeled monoclonal antibody directed against Na+-K+-ATPase (approximately 2 X 10(6) sites/cell). However, [3H]ouabain binding occurred at lower concentrations than inhibition of ouabain-sensitive 42K uptake in 0.5 Ko. Further studies in both 0.5 K and 5.4 Ko showed that ouabain caused cell Na content Nai to increase over the same range of concentrations that binding occurred, implying that increased Nai may stimulate unbound Na-K pumps and prevent a proportional decrease in 42K uptake rate. The results show that Na-K pump inhibition occurs as a functional consequence of specific ouabain binding and indicate that the Na-K pump is the cardiac glycoside receptor in cultured heart cells.

Abstract
Cardiac glycoside binding to rat heart membrane preparations was measured by rapid filtration technique. The binding data were analyzed using quantitative computer analysis. The experimental results using [3H]-ouabain as the labeled ligand were consistent with a model in which cardiac glycoside specific binding occurs at two independent classes of sites. The high affinity sites were characterized by a dissociation constants of 40 nM, 50 nM, and 61 nM for ouabain, digoxin and digitoxin, respectively, with a binding capacity of 1.3 pmoles/mg protein. The lower affinity sites for ouabain were characterized by dissociation constants of 2.3 microM, 67 nM and 71 nM for ouabain, digoxin and digitoxin, respectively, with a binding capacity of 3 pmoles/mg protein. Potassium ions inhibit [3H]-ouabain binding in a dose dependent manner with an IC50 of 500 microM. Quantitative computer modelling indicated that potassium inhibits ouabain binding at both binding sites.

Abstract
The most active component in smooth muscle contraction, isolated from the whole venom of the marine snail Conus tessulatus, has a molecular mass of about 55 kDa. The toxin protein, tessulatus toxin, appeared to be constituted by two distinct polypeptide bands of 26 kDa and 29 kDa. The pure toxin caused a marked contraction of both guinea-pig ileum and rabbit aorta at nanomolar concentrations. Tessulatus-toxin-induced contraction was indirectly prevented by classical inhibitors of the voltage-dependent Ca2+ channel. Tessulatus toxin caused a large increase in the initial rate of 45Ca2+ uptake by cardiac cells. This uptake was insensitive to Ca2+ channel blockers at concentrations 100-1000 fold higher than those known to block voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels in these cells. Voltage clamp experiments have confirmed that tessulatus toxin was not directly active on the Ca2+ current. Tessulatus-toxin-stimulated 45Ca2+ influx was inhibited by dichlorobenzamil and suppressed when Na+ was substituted by Li+, indicating that the toxin acted via activation of the Na+/Ca2+ exchange system in cardiac cells. Activation by tessulatus toxin of the Na+/Ca2+ exchange system occurred via a toxin-stimulated Na+ entry into cardiac cells and was observed in the same range of toxin concentration which produced 45Ca2+ entry. The Na+ entry system that was activated by tessulatus toxin was insensitive to classic inhibitors of known Na+ entry systems in cardiac cells. Possible mechanisms by which tessulatus toxin induced Na+ entry into cardiac cells and contractions in smooth muscles are discussed. Tessulatus toxin is cytotoxic when used at high concentrations.

Abstract
This paper describes the interaction of several polypeptide neurotoxins isolated from sea anemone toxins and scorpion venom with the tetrodotoxin-resistant Na+ channel of rat cardiac cells. The 22Na+ flux and tension development were measured to examine in parallel the cardiotonic and cardiotoxic effects of these polypeptides. Inotropic effects and arrhythmias were seen in the concentration range in which an action of the toxins on the Na+ channel was observed. The maximal inotropic effect was systematically observed at toxin concentrations below the concentration value observed for half-maximal stimulation of 22Na+ flux through the Na+ channel. Arrhythmias began at concentrations near the value for half-maximal stimulation of 22Na+ flux by the toxins. Toxins extracted from the sea anemones Anemonia sulcata and Anthopleura xanthogrammica were more active than scorpion toxins and sea anemone Radianthus paumotensis toxins. The most interesting among all the toxins tested for potential use in cardiotherapy was toxin II from Anthopleura xanthogrammica.

Abstract
Cultured chick cardiac cells possess a Na+K+Cl-co-transport system that is inhibited by the "loop diuretics" benzmetanide (IC50 = 0.3 microM), bumetanide (IC50 = 0.6 microM), piretanide (IC50 = 1.5 microM) and furosemide (IC50 = 5 microM). The K0.5 values for Cl- and Na+ activation of the bumetanide-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake are 59 mM and 40mM respectively. Bumetanide also inhibits a 22Na+ uptake component that is suppressed when external Cl- or K+ are substituted by impermeant ions. The ratio of bumetanide-sensitive 86Rb+ to 22Na+ uptake is close to 1. The cardiac Na+/K+/Cl- cotransport is a major uptake pathway for Na+ and K+. It accounts for 50% of the initial rate of 86Rb+ uptake and 17% of the initial rate of 22Na+ uptake by chick cardiac cells. It is activated two-fold by an hyperosmotic shock produced with 200 mM mannitol.

Abstract
In cultured heart muscle cells from 10-13 day-old chicken embryos, the effects of acute (4 h) and chronic (3 days) exposure of the cells to varying concentrations of ouabain have been studied. In these cells, the cardiac glycoside ouabain binds to a specific cardiac glycoside receptor (KD = 4 X 10(-7) M; 750,000 receptors/cell). Binding to this receptor results in inhibition of active Na+/K+-transport [EC50 for active (86Rb+ + K+)-influx = 4 X 10(-6) M], and in an increase in beating velocity ("positive inotropic effect"; EC50 = 4 X 10(-7) M); toxic signs (arrhythmias) appear at concentrations greater than or equal to 6 X 10(-7) M. During exposure of the cells to 3 X 10(-6) M ouabain for 3 days, tolerance develops with respect to both the positive inotropic and the toxic effect. The mechanism underlying this tolerance is identified as an increase in the number of active sodium pump molecules per cell, while the binding properties of the cardiac glycoside receptor remain unchanged. The development of cardiac glycoside tolerance is only observed in the presence of severe impairment of Na+/K+-homeostasis, due to cardiac glycoside-induced inhibition of active Na+/K+-transport. This, however, only occurs in the presence of toxic (receptor occupation greater than or equal to 60%), but not in the presence of positive inotropic, non-toxic (receptor occupation 20-60%), ouabain concentrations. We conclude that the development of cardiac glycoside tolerance during long-term treatment in patients with heart failure should not occur with submaximal dose regimens, when toxic signs (arrhythmias) are absent.

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.

Abstract
The effects of sodium pump inhibition produced by exposure to the cardiac glycosides, ouabain or dihydroouabain, or by reduction in extracellular potassium to 1.0 mM, on contractile state and sodium-calcium exchange were studied in primary monolayer cultures of chick embryo ventricular cells. Ouabain, 10(-6)M, dihydroouabain, 5 X 10(-5)M, and extracellular potassium of 1.0 mM all induced similar and prominent positive inotropic effects. These effects were accompanied, in each case, by 40-50% inhibition of the rate of active uptake of 42K and by similar increases in steady state sodium content. Stimulation of the rate of 45Ca uptake on exposure to zero extracellular sodium occurred in response to extracellular potassium (1.0 mM) or to glycoside concentrations that induced a positive inotropic effect and sodium-potassium pump inhibition. Reactivation of the sodium pump after return from 1.0 to 4.0 mM extracellular potassium was rapid and was associated with membrane hyperpolarization and slowing of spontaneous beating rate. With pump reactivation under these circumstances, the time course of disappearance of stimulation of sodium-calcium exchange on exposure to zero extracellular sodium was similar to the time course of loss of the positive inotropic effect. Under physiological conditions (4.0 mM extracellular potassium), exposure to positively inotropic but nontoxic concentrations of ouabain or dihydroouabain caused a small but consistent increase in unidirectional calcium influx, but had no discernible effect on calcium efflux. Since similar inotropic effects were produced for comparable degrees of glycoside or low extracellular potassium-induced sodium pump inhibition and increases in cellular sodium content, sodium pump inhibition rather than a glycoside-specific change in calcium binding appears to underlie the inotropic response. These findings are further consistent with the view that the primary mechanism of the positive inotropic effects of digitalis and low extracellular potassium in this experimental preparation is sodium pump inhibition resulting in increased intracellular sodium. We suggest that increased calcium influx via sodium-calcium exchange is the principal mechanism whereby increased intracellular sodium results in enhanced calcium availability to the myofibrils, but an additional effect on calcium efflux is not excluded.

Abstract
Rat astrocytes in primary cultures were employed to isolate the plasma membrane. The method for the isolation of plasma membrane was based on the capacity of the cytoskeleton to adhere to the substratum entrapping intracellular organelles during freezing-thawing cycle performed on the cell. By washing the 'surface adherent framework', the untrapped plasma membrane were recovered and density equilibrium centrifugation resulted in the isolated membrane. The isolated plasma membrane was characterized on the basis of a variety of marker enzymes positive to the plasma membrane such as (Na+ + K+)-ATPase or 5'-nucleotidase as well as the lack of conventional markers of other endomembranes. Ultrastructurally the membranes, as isolated here, were mainly vesicular in nature. The isolated plasma membrane was devoid of the dehydrogenase responsible for NADH-cytochrome c reductase activity. However, NADH-ferricyanide reductase activity and the dehydrogenase system catalyzing the transfer of reducing equivalents from NADH or NADPH to dichloroindophenol seems plasma membrane redox system. The identical specific activity employing dichloroindophenol as an electron acceptor with NADH or NADPH as donor indicate a DT-diaphorase (EC 1.6.99.2) like activity in the astrocytes plasma membrane.

Abstract
Three major ion transport systems, the nitrendipine-sensitive Ca2+ channels, the tetrodotoxin-sensitive Na+ channel and the ouabain-sensitive (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, have been studied in skeletal muscle from rat and chick after chronic denervation. It is shown that the situation found for the Ca2+ channel differs dramatically from that found for the Na+ channel and the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase and that regulation of the nitrendipine-sensitive Ca2+ channel in denervated muscle also differs widely from that of the tetrodotoxin-sensitive Na+ channel and the ouabain-sensitive (Na+ + K+)-ATPase which show a quite similar evolution.

Abstract
Affinity labelling of the digitalis receptor has indicated that it is situated on the N-terminal part of the alpha-subunit of the (Na+,K+)ATPase. Biochemical and pharmacological properties of the (Na+,K+)ATPase studied on intact chick embryonic hearts and under heart cell culture conditions have indicated the existence of two families of ouabain binding sites i.e.: a low affinity binding sites with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 2-6 microM for the ouabain-receptor complex and a high affinity binding site with a Kd of 26-48 nM. High and low affinity sites also are present at all embryonic stages studied. Inhibition of 86Rb+ uptake in cultured cardiac cells and increase in intracellular Na+ concentration, due to (Na+,K+)ATPase blockade, occur in an ouabain concentration range corresponding to the saturation of the low affinity ouabain site. Ouabain stimulated 45Ca2+ uptake increases in parallel with the increase in the intracellular Na+ concentration. It is suppressed in Na+ free medium or when Na+ is replaced by Li+ suggesting that the increase is due to the indirect activation of the Na+/Ca2+ exchange system in the plasma membrane. Dose-response curves for the inotropic effects of ouabain on papillary muscle and on ventricular cells in culture indicate the development of the cardiotonic properties is parallel to the saturation of the low affinity binding site for ouabain. Therefore, inhibition of the cardiac (Na+,K+)ATPase corresponding to low affinity ouabain binding sites seems to be responsible for both the cardiotonic and cardiotoxic effects of the drug.

Abstract
Binding of (3H)-ouabain to cultured cardiac muscle and non muscle cells from chicken embryos and neonatal rats has been characterized and correlated with ouabain-induced inhibition of the sodium pump, as well as with the positive inotropic action of the drug. Cardiac muscle and non muscle cells from 10-12 day-old chicken embryos are characterized by a single class of ouabain binding sites (muscle cells: dissociation constant KD = 1.5 X 10(-7) M; binding capacity B = 2.6 pmoles/mg cell protein). Two classes of ouabain binding sites, however, have been found in cardiac muscle and non muscle cells from 1-3 day-old, neonatal rats (muscle cells: high affinity, low capacity sites: KD = 3.2 X 10(-8) M, B = 0.2 pmoles/mg protein; low affinity, high capacity sites: KD = 1.7 X 10(-6) M, B = 2.6 pmoles/mg protein). Half maximal inhibition of active (86Rb+ + K+)-influx occurs at 5.8 X 10(-7)M ouabain in chicken heart muscle cells and at 1.3 X 10(-5)M in rat heart muscle cells [( K+] = 0,75 mM). Decreases in cell-K+ (EC50 = 6.7 X 10(-7)M and 1.9 X 10(-5)M) and increases in cell-Na+ (7.4 X 10(-7) and 10(-5) - 10(-4)M) parallel ouabain-induced inhibition of the sodium pump. Up to 10(-6)M, ouabain does not affect velocity of cell wall motion in cultured rat heart muscle cells. A concentration-dependent increase in cell wall motion is observed at concentrations between 5 X 10(-6) and 5 X 10(-5)M, being indicative of a positive inotropic effect. At 10(-4)M ouabain, arrhythmias are present. Our data demonstrate the existence of one single class of cardiac glycoside receptors in cultured cardiac muscle cells from chicken embryos.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
