Abstract
Hepatic glutamate uptake and conversion to glutamine is critical for whole-body N metabolism, but how this process is regulated during growth is poorly described. The hepatic glutamate uptake activities, protein content of system [Formula: see text] transporters (EAAC1, GLT-1) and regulatory proteins (GTRAP3-18, ARL6IP1), glutamine synthetase (GS) activity and content, and glutathione (GSH) content, were compared in liver tissue of weaned Angus steers randomly assigned (n = 8) to predominantly lean (growing) or predominantly lipid (finished) growth regimens. Steers were fed a cotton seed hull-based diet to achieve final body weights of 301 or 576 kg, respectively, at a constant rate of growth. Liver tissue was collected at slaughter and hepatic membranes fractionated. Total (75%), Na+-dependent (90%), system [Formula: see text]-dependent (abolished) glutamate uptake activity, and EAAC1 content (36%) in canalicular membrane-enriched vesicles decreased as steers developed from growing (n = 6) to finished (n = 4) stages, whereas Na+-independent uptake did not change. In basolateral membrane-enriched vesicles, total (60%), Na+-dependent (60%), and Na+-independent (56%) activities decreased, whereas neither system [Formula: see text]-dependent uptake nor protein content changed. EAAC1 protein content in liver homogenates (n = 8) decreased in finished vs. growing steers, whereas GTRAP3-18 and ARL6IP1 content increased and GLT-1 content did not change. Concomitantly, hepatic GS activity decreased (32%) as steers fattened, whereas GS and GSH contents did not differ. We conclude that hepatic glutamate uptake and GS synthesis capacities are reduced in livers of finished versus growing beef steers, and that hepatic system [Formula: see text] transporter activity/EAAC1 content is inversely proportional to GTRAP3-18 content.

Abstract
Drugs that inhibit Na,K-ATPases, such as digoxin and ouabain, alter cardiac myocyte contractility. We recently demonstrated that agrin, a protein first identified at the vertebrate neuromuscular junction, binds to and regulates the activity of alpha3 subunit-containing isoforms of the Na,K-ATPase in the mammalian brain. Both agrin and the alpha3 Na,K-ATPase are expressed in heart, but their potential for interaction and effect on cardiac myocyte function was unknown. Here we show that agrin binds to the alpha3 subunit of the Na,K-ATPase in cardiac myocyte membranes, inducing tyrosine phosphorylation and inhibiting activity of the pump. Agrin also triggers a rapid increase in cytoplasmic Na(+) in cardiac myocytes, suggesting a role in cardiac myocyte function. Consistent with this hypothesis, spontaneous contraction frequencies of cultured cardiac myocytes prepared from mice in which agrin expression is blocked by mutation of the Agrn gene are significantly higher than in the wild type. The Agrn mutant phenotype is rescued by acute treatment with recombinant agrin. Furthermore, exposure of wild type myocytes to an agrin antagonist phenocopies the Agrn mutation. These data demonstrate that the basal frequency of myocyte contraction depends on endogenous agrin-alpha3 Na,K-ATPase interaction and suggest that agrin modulation of the alpha3 Na,K-ATPase is important in regulating heart function.

Abstract
There are two predominant theories for lumen formation in tissue morphogenesis; cavitation driven by cell death, and membrane separation driven by epithelial polarity. To define the mechanism of lumen formation in prostate acini we examined both theories in several cell lines grown in 3D Matrigel culture. Lumen formation occurred early in culture and preceded the expression of cell death markers for apoptosis (active caspase 3) and autophagy (LC-3). Active caspase 3 was expressed by very few cells and inhibition of apoptosis did not suppress lumen formation. Despite LC-3 expression in all cells within a spheroid, this was not associated with cell death. However, expression of the prostate secretory protein coincided with lumen formation and subsequent disruption of polarized fluid movement led to significant inhibition of lumen formation. This work indicates that lumen formation is driven by the polarized movement of fluids and proteins in 3D prostate epithelial models and not by cavitation.

Abstract
We have analyzed the effect of ischemia-reperfusion on expression of hepatic Na+,K+-ATPase on bile canalicular (BCM) and basolateral membranes (BLM) in human liver allografts using confocal laser scanning microscopy imaging. Na+, K+-ATPase, an integral membrane enzyme, plays a key role in the physiology and structure of hepatocytes, where it maintains the electrochemical gradients for Na+ and K+ across the cell membrane. The concentrations of these ions as well as their gradients regulate the active transport across the plasma membrane for bile acid and water from sinusoidal to canalicular membranes. In addition, Na+,K+-ATPase is also involved in cellular structure because of its close relationship with submembrane microfilaments and its implication in tight junction assembly. Therefore, Na+,K+-ATPase appears as an indicator of tissue viability and hepatic functionality during liver transplantation. Its localization and its function in BCM are still controversial. As in previous studies, we found an enzyme expression in both BLM and BCM. We show that ischemia induced a decrease in Na+,K+-ATPase expression only in BCM. This result could be explained by the differences in biochemical membrane environment between basolateral and bile canalicular Na+,K+-ATPase. Membrane lipid fluidity, which is more elevated in BLM than in BCM, could protect the enzyme during ischemia. After reperfusion, Na+,K+-ATPase expression was strongly decreased in both BCM and BLM. This alteration following reperfusion is probably due to multiple factors: direct alteration of the enzyme catalytic subunit and modification of its environment and membrane lipid fluidity by free radicals and changes in ATP levels and ionic distribution. This important decrease in Na+,K+-ATPase expression of both BLM and BCM could disturb not only hepatic secretory function but also cellular volume and structure during the postoperative period.

Abstract
In Japan, microwave coagulation therapy (MCT) has been used for the management of primary and metastatic liver cancer. Needle biopsy examination from the lesion has frequently shown the presence of nucleated cancer cells in histopathological examinations, prompting the conclusion that cancer cells are not completely eliminated by microwave therapy, whereas computed tomography and ultrasonography examinations show tumor regression. To determine whether microwave-treated tissue contains functionally viable cells, an examination of the Na+-K+-ATPase protein and its activity using immunohistochemical and enzyme histochemical methods were carried out in microwave-treated rat liver. Four concentric, morphologically identifiable zones around the microwave probe needle appeared 2 days after treatment. Zone A, which was between the innermost spongy zone and the outer necrotic zone, contained only slight morphological alterations in the hepatocytes, which had slightly hyperchromatic nuclei and mildly eosinophilic cytoplasm. The hepatocytes in zone A were found to be positive for the Na+-K+-ATPase antigenicity but negative for enzyme activity, indicating that zone A was undergoing cell death, although morphologically this was not discernible. This type of cell death caused by microwave treatment is morphologically different from previously known types of cell death, either oncosis or apoptosis.

Abstract
Because diabetes causes alterations in hepatic membrane fatty acid content, these changes may affect the Na+,K+-ATPase. In this study we documented the effects of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes on hepatic Na+,K+-ATPase catalytic alpha1-subunit and evaluated whether these changes could be normalized by fish oil supplementation. Two groups of diabetic rats received fish oil or olive oil supplementation. Both groups had a respective control group. We studied the localization of catalytic alpha1-subunit on bile canalicular and basolateral membranes using immunocytochemical methods and confocal laser scanning microscopy, and the Na+, K+-ATPase activity, membrane fluidity, and fatty acid composition on isolated hepatic membranes. A decrease in the alpha1-subunit was observed with diabetes in the bile canalicular membranes, without changes in basolateral membranes. This decrease was partially prevented by dietary fish oil. Diabetes induces significant changes as documented by enzymatic Na+,K+-ATPase activity, membrane fluidity, and fatty acid content, whereas little change in these parameters was observed after a fish oil diet. In conclusion, STZ-induced diabetes appears to modify bile canalicular membrane integrity and dietary fish oil partly prevents the diabetes-induced alterations.

Abstract
Hepatocellular Na+,K+-ATPase is an important driving force for bile secretion and has been localized to the basolateral plasma membrane domain. Cholestasis or impaired bile flow is known to modulate the expression, domain specificity, and activity of various transport systems involved in bile secretion. This study examined Na+, K+-ATPase after ethinylestradiol (EE) treatment and after bile duct ligation (BDL), two rat models of cholestasis. It applied quantitative immunoblotting, biochemical and cytochemical determination of enzyme activity, and immunocytochemistry to the same livers. The data showed a good correlation among the results of the different methods. Neither EE nor BDL induced alterations in the subcellular distribution of Na+,K+-ATPase, which was found in the basolateral but not in the canalicular (apical) plasma membrane domain. Protein expression and enzyme activity showed a small (approximately 10%) decrease after EE treatment and a similar increase after BDL. These modest changes could not be detected by immunofluorescence, immuno EM, or cytochemistry. The data, therefore, demonstrate that Na+,K+-ATPase is only slightly affected by EE and BDL. They suggest that other components of the bile secretory apparatus that take effect downstream of the primary basolateral driving force may play a more prominent role in the pathogenesis of cholestasis.

Abstract
We have examined underlying causes for observations made in hepatocytes in which catalytic subunits of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase are found both in bile canalicular (apical) and sinusoidal (basolateral) membrane domains, whereas functional activity is associated preferentially with sinusoidal membrane sites. In a series of parallel studies, we determined by both light and electron microscopy that Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase alpha-subunits were localized to both membrane domains of hepatocytes. With the use of purified liver plasma membrane subfractions, ouabain inhibition curves demonstrated similar inhibition constants (inhibition constant 10(-5) M), and immunoblots using alpha 1-, alpha 2-, and alpha 3-polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies demonstrated antigenic sites predominantly for alpha 1 in both membrane fractions. Also, Northern blot hybridization analysis revealed only the alpha 1-isoform in hepatocytes. In contrast to the bipolar distribution of the alpha 1-subunit, the beta-subunit was identified only at the sinusoidal surface using fluorescence labeling with a monoclonal antibody. The beta 1-isoform was demonstrated by Northern blot analysis and was present predominantly at the sinusoidal domain by immunoblotting with polyclonal antibodies. In addition to the bipolar distribution of alpha 1, immunoblotting of liver plasma membrane subfractions demonstrated a symmetrical distribution of fodrin, ankyrin, actin, and E-cadherin at both domains. These results suggest that functionally competent alpha/beta-complexes form at the sinusoidal domain, whereas only alpha 1-subunits are present at the apical pole.

Abstract
Treatment of purified preparations of porcine Na+,K(+)-ATPase with phospholipase A2, MgCl2 and NaVO3 leads to the formation of two-dimensional crystals exclusively in a dimeric configuration. Two-dimensional computer-averaged projections of the electron microscopy images of the crystalline enzyme with bound Fab fragments of monoclonal antibody M10-P5-C11 were accomplished using image enhancement software and showed that the antibody fragments caused only a modest increase in the unit cell size, while reducing the extent of asymmetry of the two promoters in each unit cell. The digital imaging also showed that the antibody's epitope on the alpha subunit resides on the 'lobe' or 'hook' region of the intracellular portion of the enzyme. Since functional studies indicate that M10-P5-C11 binds near or between the ATP binding site and the phosphorylation site, this visualized 'lobe' region of alpha may comprise the catalytic site. In addition, the binding of another inhibitory antibody, 9-A5, has been found to prevent crystal formation and the presence of the carbohydrate sugars on the enzyme's beta subunit shown to be required for crystal formation.

Abstract
Controversy exists concerning the localization of the enzyme Na+,K(+)-ATPase to canalicular membranes in hepatocytes. Most studies find enzyme activity only at the basolateral plasma membrane domain of the hepatocyte. However, Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity has been detected recently in a canalicular membrane fraction prepared by Mg++ precipitation, suggesting that differences in membrane domain fluidity account for these discrepancies. To reinvestigate this question, we used free-flow electrophoresis to further purify canalicular liver plasma membranes originally separated by sucrose density centrifugation. With this technique, canalicular membranes devoid of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity by routine assay were separated into six subfractions. More than 80% of the activities of canalicular marker enzymes was recovered in two subfractions closest to the anode, which were totally devoid of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity. However, Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity could now be detected in the four other fractions that contained only small amounts of canalicular marker enzymes. The basolateral marker enzyme, glucagon-stimulated adenyl cyclase, comigrated with this cryptic Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity. Furthermore, addition of 6 mumol/L [12-(2-methoxyethoxy)-ethyl-8-(cis-2-n-octylcyclopropyl)-octanoate ], a membrane-fluidizing agent, to the original canalicular membrane preparation and to all subfractions did not stimulate or unmask latent Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity. Finally, when canalicular membranes isolated by Mg++ precipitation were subjected to free-flow electrophoresis, they could not be separated from the more positively charged Na+,K(+)-ATPase-containing fractions, probably because of alterations in surface charge. Together these findings suggest that Na+,K(+)-ATPase is a basolateral enzyme, that represents a small contaminant when present in canalicular liver plasma membranes and that methodological differences may account for previous discrepancies.

Abstract
The previously produced monoclonal antibody IEC 1/48 against cultured rat intestinal crypt cells (Quaroni, A., and K. J. Isselbacher. 1981. J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 67:1353-1362) was extensively characterized and found to be directed against the beta subunit of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase as assessed by immunological and enzymatic criteria. Under nondenaturing conditions the antibody precipitated the alpha-beta enzyme complex (98,000 and 48,000 Mr). This probe, together with the monoclonal antibody C 62.4 against the alpha subunit (Kashgarian, M., D. Biemesderfer, M. Caplan, and B. Forbush. 1985. Kidney Int. 28:899-913), was used to localize (Na+ + K+)-ATPase in epithelial cells along the rat intestinal tract by immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy. Both antibodies exclusively labeled the basolateral membrane of small intestine and proximal colon epithelial cells. However, in the distal colon, IEC 1/48, but not C 62.4, also labeled the brush border membrane. The cross-reacting beta-subunit-like antigen on the apical cell pole was tightly associated with isolated brush borders but was apparently devoid of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity. Subcellular fractionation of colonocytes in conjunction with limited proteolysis and surface radioiodination of intestinal segments suggested that the cross-reacting antigen in the brush border may be very similar to the beta subunit. The results support the notion that in the small intestine and proximal colon the enzyme subunits are exclusively targeted to the basolateral membrane while in the distal colon nonassembled beta subunit or a beta-subunit-like protein is also transported to the apical cell pole.

Abstract
Canalicular and mitochondrial membranes were investigated as early foci of hepatocyte injury in fed and fasted male Sprague-Dawley rats given 50 mg of 1,1-dichloroethylene (DCE)/kg. Staining of the bile canaliculi localized enzymes, leucine aminopeptidase (LAP), and Mg++-dependent ATPase (Mg++-ATPase), was examined by histochemistry in frozen sections. Mitochondrial membrane enzymes, including succinate dehydrogenase, also were examined by histochemistry. Staining of two monoclonal antibodies, C-1 and 9-B1, whose binding is localized in the bile canalicular region, was examined by immunofluorescence in frozen sections. Fasted rats treated with DCE developed moderate liver damage by 4 hours as evidenced by increases in serum transaminase and bilirubin, whereas fed rats developed only slight cell damage. Centrolobular loss of immunocytochemical and histochemical canalicular staining, especially for C-1 and Mg++-ATPase, was evident as early as 1 hour after DCE and was striking by 2 hours in both fed and fasted rats. Decreases in mitochondrial enzymes were not evident histochemically in fed animals at any time after DCE and were found only at the later times in fasted animals given the toxin. Thus, DCE administration to fed rats provides a new model system of selective bile canaliculi injury.

Abstract
Membrane proteins of transporting epithelia are often distributed between apical and basolateral surfaces to produce a functionally polarized cell. The distribution of Na+,K+-ATPase [ATP phosphohydrolase (Na+/K+-transporting), EC 3.6.1.37] between apical and basolateral membranes of hepatocytes has been controversial. Because Na+,K+-ATPase activity is fluidity dependent and the physiochemical properties of the apical membrane reduces its fluidity, we investigated whether altering membrane fluidity might uncover cryptic Na+,K+-ATPase in bile canalicular (apical) surface fractions free of detectable Na+,K+-ATPase and glucagon-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities. Apical fractions exhibited higher diphenylhexatriene-fluorescence polarization values when compared with sinusoidal (basolateral) membrane fractions. When 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl 8-(cis-2-n-octylcyclopropyl)octanoate (A2C) was added to each fraction, Na+,K+-ATPase, but not glucagon-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity, was activated in the apical fraction. In contrast, further activation of both enzymes was not seen in sinusoidal fractions. The A2C-induced increase in apical Na+,K+-ATPase approached 75% of the sinusoidal level. Parallel increases in apical Na+,K+-ATPase were produced by benzyl alcohol and Triton WR-1339. All three fluidizing agents decreased the order component of membrane fluidity. Na+,K+-ATPase activity in each subfraction was identically inhibited by the monoclonal antibody 9-A5, a specific inhibitor of this enzyme. These findings suggest that hepatic Na+,K+-ATPase is distributed in both surface membranes but functions more efficiently and, perhaps, specifically in the sinusoidal membranes because of their higher bulk lipid fluidity.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown that the erythrocyte membrane Ca2+ pump is exposed primarily to the cytoplasm: proteases, substrates and polyclonal antibodies all interact with the enzyme from the cytoplasmic side. In this study, the pump's accessibility from outside the cell was investigated with monoclonal antibodies. When cultures of hybridoma cells producing antibodies against the Ca2+ pump were screened for binding of the antibodies to intact red cells, only 7% of the cultures gave a positive reaction (a total of eight cultures). The small number of positives confirms the relative inaccessibility of the Ca2+ pump from outside the red cell. From the eight positive cultures we isolated one stable clone which produced an antibody (1B10) that reacted both with purified Ca2+ pump and with the outside of intact red cells. Immunoprecipitation experiments and binding assays with inside-out vesicles showed that 1B10 reacted only against the erythrocyte Ca2+ pump from the extracellular face of the red cell. 1B10 had no observable effect on the Ca2+ efflux from resealed red cells. Digestion of intact red cells with glycosidases, trypsin or papain had minimal effect on the binding of the antibody to intact red cells. However, digestion with pronase, subtilisin or alpha-chymotrypsin nearly eliminated the binding, indicating that 1B10 was directed against a protein determinant of the ATPase which is exposed on the outside of the red cell.

Abstract
The effects of serum ultrafiltrates and fractions from patients with fulminant hepatic failure (FHF) on bile production in the rat were investigated. When serum ultrafiltrates (mol. wt less than 10,000) were infused into the portal vein bile flow showed a significant decrease with FHF ultrafiltrate (90.4 +/- s.e. 2.0% of baseline at the end of infusion, n = 4) compared with a small increase on infusion of normal ultrafiltrate (107.9 +/- 3.4%, n = 6, P less than 0.025). Bile acid output was significantly decreased by FHF ultrafiltrate (62.0 +/- 2.3%., P less than 0.005). Chromatography of the ultrafiltrates on Sephadex G-25 gave two fractions from FHF serum which produced similar changes as with whole ultrafiltrate on bile secretion. Thus, toxic substances accumulating in the circulation of patients with FHF could reduce bile flow and impair the recovery of hepatic function.

Abstract
Phlorizin is a specific, high-affinity ligand that binds the active site of the Na+/glucose symporter by a Na+-dependent mechanism but is not itself transported across the membrane. We have isolated a panel of monoclonal antibodies that influence high-affinity, Na+-dependent phlorizin binding to pig renal brush border membranes. Antibodies were derived after immunization of mice either with highly purified renal brush border membranes or with apical membranes purified from LLC-PK1, a cell line of pig renal proximal tubule origin. Antibody 11A3D6, an IgG2b, reproducibly stimulated Na+-dependent phlorizin binding whereas antibody 18H10B12, an IgM, strongly inhibited specific binding. These effects were maximal after 30-min incubation and exhibited saturation at increased antibody concentrations. Antibodies did not affect Na+-dependent sugar uptake in vesicles but significantly prevented transport inhibition by bound phlorizin. Antibodies recognized a 75-kDa antigen identified by Western blot analysis of brush border membranes, and a 75-kDa membrane protein could be immunoprecipitated by 18H10B12. These properties, taken together with results in the following paper [Wu, J.-S.R., & Lever, J.E. (1987) Biochemistry (following paper in this issue)], provide compelling evidence that the 75-kDa antigen recognized by these antibodies is a component of the renal Na+/glucose symporter.

Abstract
The distributions of (Na+ + K+)ATPase and sodium channels in skeletal muscle fibres and electrocytes were determined by immunofluorescent and immunoelectron microscopic techniques using antibodies against rat and eel (Na+ + K+)ATPase and the eel electric organ sodium channel. The extrajunctional sarcolemma of skeletal muscle was uniformly stained by polyclonal antibodies against (Na+ + K+)ATPase and the sodium channel. The T-tubule system of skeletal muscle was also labelled heavily for both (Na+ + K+)ATPase and the sodium channel. The terminal cisternae of the sarcoplasmic reticulum was stained for (Na+ + K+)ATPase but not sodium channels. At the motor endplate, (Na+ + K+)ATPase-like immunoreactivity was present along the plasmalemma of motor nerve terminals but not along the postsynaptic junctional sarcolemma. Paradoxically, a monoclonal antibody that binds to the alpha form of the catalytic subunit of (Na+ + K+)ATPase from rat hepatocytes and renal tubule cells did not label the enzyme in rat skeletal muscle. In electrocytes, (Na+ + K+)ATPase-like immunoreactivity was concentrated primarily along the plasmalemma and calveolae of the non-innervated face. In contrast, sodium channel-like immunoreactivity was concentrated along the plasmalemma of the innervated face except in the clefts of the postsynaptic membrane. Thus, we conclude that at endplates both the (Na+ + K+)ATPase of rat skeletal muscle and sodium channels of eel electrocytes are not concentrated in the juxtaneuronal postsynaptic membrane. We also interpret the failure of the monoclonal anti-alpha (Na+ + K+)ATPase antibodies to bind to the enzyme in muscle to indicate that the catalytic subunit of skeletal muscle (Na+ + K+)ATPase displays different epitopes than does the alpha subunit of kidney and liver.

Abstract
Controversy has recently developed over the surface distribution of Na+,K+-ATPase in hepatic parenchymal cells. We have reexamined this issue using several independent techniques. A monoclonal antibody specific for the endodomain of alpha-subunit was used to examine Na+,K+-ATPase distribution at the light and electron microscope levels. When cryostat sections of rat liver were incubated with the monoclonal antibody, followed by either rhodamine or horseradish peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-mouse secondary, fluorescent staining or horseradish peroxidase reaction product was observed at the basolateral surfaces of hepatocytes from the space of Disse to the tight junctions bordering bile canaliculi. No labeling of the canalicular plasma membrane was detected. In contrast, when hepatocytes were dissociated by collagenase digestion, Na+,K+-ATPase alpha-subunit was localized to the entire plasma membrane. Na+,K+-ATPase was quantitated in isolated rat liver plasma membrane fractions by Western blots using a polyclonal antibody against Na+,K+-ATPase alpha-subunit. Plasma membranes from the basolateral domain of hepatocytes possessed essentially all of the cell's estimated Na+,K+-ATPase catalytic activity and contained a 96-kD alpha-subunit band. Canalicular plasma membrane fractions, defined by their enrichment in alkaline phosphatase, 5' nucleotidase, gamma-glutamyl transferase, and leucine aminopeptidase had no detectable Na+,K+-ATPase activity and no alpha-subunit band could be detected in Western blots of these fractions. We conclude that Na+,K+-ATPase is limited to the sinusoidal and lateral domains of hepatocyte plasma membrane in intact liver. This basolateral distribution is consistent with its topology in other ion-transporting epithelia.

Abstract
(Na+ + K+)ATPase-like immunoreactivity along the axolemma of sensory and motor neurons and the plasmalemma of Schwann cells from spinal roots of dystrophic mice (129 ReJ Dy/Dy) was determined using polyclonal antibodies specific for guinea pig renal (Na+ + K+)ATPase (GP-17), along with polyclonal (439-2) and monoclonal (9A5) antibodies specific for rat renal (Na+ + K+)ATPase. In normal and dystrophic mice, (Na+ + K+)ATPase-like immunoreactivity was observed along the axolemma at nodes of Ranvier using GP-17 and 439-2, each of which binds to isozymes of (Na+ + K+)ATPase composed of the alpha and alpha + forms of the catalytic subunit. Staining was not seen along the nodal axolemma with 9A5, a preparation that binds to the alpha form of the catalytic subunit. The terminal processes and microvilli of Schwann cells were stained using all three antibody probes. The axolemma of unensheathed axons in dystrophic mice was continuously and uniformly labelled with GP-17 and 439-2, but not 9A5. Concentrations of (Na+ + K+)ATPase-like immunoreactivity along Schwann cell processes were observed most often in areas adjacent to unensheathed axolemma. At heminodes, staining abruptly decreased along Schwann cell processes in areas that were separated from the unensheathed axolemma by other intervening Schwann cell processes. It was concluded from these data that in dystrophic mice (Na+ + K+)ATPase is uniformly distributed along unensheathed portions of axons without evidence of detectable focal concentrations of the enzyme, and that the catalytic subunit of (Na+ + K+)ATPase along unensheathed axons is distinct from the alpha form found in Schwann cells and other organs. In addition, (Na+ + K+)ATPase is concentrated along the plasmalemma of Schwann cells in regions of close apposition to axolemmal areas associated with large ionic fluxes.

Abstract
The catalytic alpha-subunit of rat hepatic (Na+, K+)-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) has been isolated by immunoaffinity chromatography from microsomes solubilized in n-dodecyl octaethylene glycol monoether. The procedure employs an anticatalytic mouse monoclonal antibody ("9-A5") covalently linked to Sepharose 4B that specifically blocks phosphorylation of the sodium pump's alpha-subunit from [gamma-32P]ATP [Schenk, D. B., Hubert, J.J., & Leffert, H.L. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 14941-14951]. The hepatic subunit is virtually identical with purified rat, dog, and human renal alpha-subunits as judged by its apparent molecular weight after polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate (Mr 92K) and its two-dimensional tryptic and chymotryptic peptide maps on cellulose-coated thin-layer plates. In contrast, the structures of authentic renal beta-subunits from the three species differ significantly from each other as judged by their peptide maps; no detectable homologies are seen between their chymotryptic maps and those of putative hepatic "beta"-subunits (Mr 50K and 55K) eluted from 9-A5-Sepharose. Additional studies of ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake in primary cultures of adult rat hepatocytes reveal inhibition curves with single inflection points (ID50 = 0.1 mM ouabain) in the absence or presence of pump-stimulating peptides like insulin, glucagon, and epidermal growth factor. These findings indicate that rat hepatocytes express only one of two known structurally conserved forms of catalytic subunit (the renallike alpha form) and, if at all, structurally divergent forms of the sodium pump's beta-subunit. In addition, immunoaffinity chromatography with 9-A5-Sepharose facilitates the isolation of (Na+, K+)-ATPases from nonrenal tissues with low levels of sodium pumps.

Abstract
We developed a monoclonal antibody to the plasma membrane of rat hepatocytes. Immunoelectron microscopic characterization of an antigen identified by our antibody revealed that the antigen was present diffusely on the sinusoidal and lateral plasma membranes of hepatocytes but absent from the bile canalicular membrane. Sinusoidal lining cells (Kupffer cells and endothelial cells) were devoid of the antigen. Within hepatocytes, the antigen was present in the Golgi complexes, segments of endoplasmic reticulum and small vesicle-like structures. The development of the monoclonal antibody to the segregated membrane antigen of the hepatocyte in this study provides a reliable marker of specific membrane domains for use of isolation of plasma membrane surfaces and is a useful tool for investigation of the transferring mechanisms of membrane proteins to their destinations.

Abstract
The locations of binding sites on the alpha-subunit of dog kidney Na+-K+-ATPase for both monoclonal antibodies and antibodies from polyclonal antisera have been determined. Three distinct regions of the alpha-subunit, all located within the amino terminal half of the polypeptide, were recognized by the antibodies: a region near the amino terminus of the polypeptide and two regions that are separated by a site for trypsin cleavage of the ATPase in KCl. No significant binding of antibodies to the carboxy terminal region of the alpha-subunit was detected. The binding sites for the antibodies are located within regions of the polypeptide predicted to be exposed within the cytoplasm of the cell (P. L. Jorgensen, S. J. D. Karlish, and C. Gitler, J. Biol. Chem. 257: 7435-7442, 1982). This prediction was verified by the demonstration that the antibodies did not react with Na+-K+-ATPase in tight right-side-out vesicles but would bind to the protein after the vesicles had been disrupted with detergent. A model for the folding of the alpha-subunit through the membrane, based on these data, is presented.

Abstract
Immunological cross-reactivity between cell wall proteins obtained from two yeast genera (Candida tropicalis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae) is reported. Specific retention of two cell wall proteins from Saccharomyces cerevisiae by an immunoabsorbent column coupled with antibodies against phosphate binding protein 2(PiBP2) from Candida tropicalis allowed to generate antibodies against the proteins from S. cerevisiae. These antibodies were effective in inhibiting phosphate uptake by S. cerevisiae cells. The proteins from S. cerevisiae displayed a phosphate binding activity which was inhibited in the presence of the forementioned antibodies. These results and the observation that the amount of these proteins in the shock fluid was dependent of the growth conditions (i.e., in the presence or in the absence of phosphate) support the idea that these proteins are involved in the high affinity phosphate transport system.

Abstract
The immunological heterogeneity of the rabbit nephron was investigated using monoclonal antibodies. Seventeen antibodies have been produced by fusion of NS1 myeloma cells with spleen cells from BALB/c mice immunized with unfractionated rabbit renal cortical cell preparations. Sixteen antibodies reacted with proximal tubular cells: 11 with the brush border and 5 with basolateral membrane or intracytoplasmic components. Only one of the latter was specific for constituents of the proximal tubule. One antibody reacted with the cortical collecting tubule. Eight of the anti-brush-border antibodies were further characterized by immunoprecipitation of detergent-solubilized radiolabeled brush-border membrane vesicles. Seven proteins with subunits ranging in molecular weight from 90,000 to greater than 340,000 were identified. Systematic survey showed that one of these proteins with a subunit molecular weight of 115,000 exhibited leucine aminopeptidase activity. Selected monoclonal antibodies bound to Sepharose 4B immunoadsorbents were used to deplete solubilized brush-border membrane vesicles of a given antigen and to identify leucine aminopeptidase. Furthermore, the obtention of specific antibodies directed against the proximal tubule allowed us to set up a simple method for renal cell separation: isolated renal cortical cells could be depleted by 80% in proximal cells by passage over columns of Sepharose 6MB covalently linked with three different monoclonal anti-brush-border antibodies, thus leading to cell suspensions considerably enriched in tubule cells originating from the more distal segments of the nephron.

Abstract
A panel of six mouse monoclonal antibodies (IgG1) has been prepared against purified rat urinary kallikrein (EC 3.4.21.35) and characterized. In radioimmunoassay, the antibody titres of ascitic fluid giving 50% binding to 125I-kallikrein range from 1:2 X 10(3) to 1:1 X 10(6). Antibodies from four of the clones show no cross-reactivity with human urinary kallikrein, rat urinary esterase A or tonin. However, antibodies from a fifth clone cross-react with tonin and, from a sixth, with both urinary esterase A and tonin. Three of the kallikrein affinity-purified monoclonal antibodies inhibited, whereas one of the antibodies stimulated, kallikrein activity. Tissue kallikrein from rat submandibular-gland and pancreatic extracts and urine were labelled with [14C]di-isopropyl phosphofluoridate, immunoprecipitated with each of the six monoclonal antibodies and identified to be 38 kDa proteins, similar in size to purified rat urinary kallikrein. Western-blot analysis shows that 125I-labelled kallikrein monoclonal antibodies (V4D11) bind directly to a 38 kDa protein in submandibular-gland and pancreatic extracts and urine. Cell-free translation products of submandibular-gland polyadenylylated[poly(A)+]mRNA were immunoprecipitated with affinity-purified sheep anti-kallikrein antibodies and three monoclonal antibodies (V4D11, V4G6 and V1C3). Sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis of these immunoprecipitates revealed that two kallikrein precursors with Mr values of 37 000 and 35 000 are encoded by submandibular-gland mRNA. The third monoclonal antibody, V1C3, which binds to active kallikrein, did not recognize either precursor form. Collectively, the data show that these monoclonal antibodies comprise a set of powerful and specific reagents for studies of tissue kallikreins.

Abstract
We have used a combined biochemical and morphological approach to establish the suitability of certain endogenous and exogenous domain markers for monitoring the separation of rat hepatocyte plasma membrane domains in sucrose density gradients. As endogenous domain markers, we employed two of the integral plasma membrane protein antigens, HA 4 and CE 9, localized to the bile canalicular and sinusoidal/lateral domains, respectively, of the hepatocyte plasma membrane in rat liver tissue (Hubbard, A. L., J. R. Bartles, and L. T. Braiterman, 1985, J. Cell Biol., 100:1115-1125). We used immunoelectron microscopy with a colloidal gold probe to demonstrate that HA 4 and CE 9 retained their domain-specific localizations on isolated hepatocyte plasma membrane sheets. When the plasma membrane sheets were vesiculated by sonication and the resulting vesicles were centrifuged to equilibrium in sucrose density gradients, quantitative immunoblotting revealed that the vesicles containing HA 4 and those containing CE 9 exhibited distinct density profiles. The density profile for the bile canalicular vesicles (marked by HA 4) was characterized by a single peak at a density of 1.10 g/cm3. The density profile for the sinusoidal/lateral vesicles (marked by CE 9) was bimodal, with a peak in the body of the gradient at a density of 1.14 g/cm3 and a smaller amount in the pellet (density greater than or equal to 1.17 g/cm3). We used this sucrose gradient fractionation as a diagnostic procedure to assign domain localizations for several other hepatocyte plasma membrane antigens and enzyme activities. In addition, we used the technique to demonstrate that 125I-wheat germ agglutinin, introduced during isolated liver perfusion at 4 degrees C, can serve as an exogenous domain marker for the sinusoidal domain of the rat hepatocyte plasma membrane.

Abstract
Previous evidence has established the similarity between (Na+ + K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC.3.6.1.3) and the antigen recognized by the rat antimouse monoclonal antibody anti-BSP-3. This antibody has been used for investigation of the surface expression and biochemical analysis of the enzyme in different mouse lymphoid populations. The BSP-3 determinant is found on almost all thymocytes and concanavalin A-induced thymocytes, to a lesser extent on bone marrow cells and also on a minor population of spleen cells. Spleen cells from athymic mice are negative. The (Na+ + K+)-ATPase purified from mouse thymus by affinity chromatography migrates in SDS-polyacrylamide gels in the form of two polypeptide chains of 105 000 and 51 000 daltons. Chains of the same molecular weight, fractionated on SDS-PAGE from microsomes of mouse thymuses, are shown to react with subunit-specific polyclonal antisera against ATPase in immunoblotting experiments. Immunoprecipitation with anti-BSP-3 from surface iodinated thymocytes yields only the small subunit. Comparison of the chains isolated from thymus and brain shows molecular weight differences in both subunits. These results, and variations in the reactivity pattern of the anti-BSP-3 antibody on several cell types, may indicate a possible heterogeneity of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase expressed by various tissues and cells.

Abstract
Distribution of [Na+,K+]ATPase on the cell surface of canine hepatocytes was investigated quantitatively by incubating prefixed and dissociated liver cells with ferritin antibody conjugates against canine kidney holo[Na+,K+]ATPase. We found that [Na+,K+]-ATPase exists bilaterally both on the bile canalicular and sinusoid-lateral surfaces. The particle density on the bile canalicular surface was much higher (approximately 2.5 times) than that on the sinusoid-lateral surface. In the latter region, the enzyme was detected almost equally both on the sinusoidal and lateral surfaces. On all the surfaces, the distribution of the enzyme was homogeneous and no clustering of the enzyme was detected. Total number of the enzyme on the sinusoid-lateral surface was, however, approximately three times higher than that on the bile canalicular region, because the sinusoid-lateral surface represents approximately 87% of the total cell surface of a hepatocyte. We suggest that the [Na+, K+]ATPase on the bile canalicular surface is responsible for the bile acid-independent bile flow and the other transport processes on the bile canalicular cell surface, while that on the sinusoid-lateral surface is responsible not only for the active transport of Na+ but also for the secondary active transport of various substances in this region.

Abstract
A major limitation in understanding bile formation has been technical. The liver and ductular epithelium are relatively inaccessible, necessitating indirect techniques of uncertain validity. This is well seen in attempts to define the role of electrolyte secretion in bile. It is widely agreed that bile salts stimulate a component of canalicular flow and that inorganic electrolyte secretion is stimulated by bile salts. The choleretic efficiency of a bile salt is directly related to the magnitude of the electrolyte effect. But there is no consensus regarding how and where bile salts stimulate electrolyte secretion. Some evidence points to a paracellular route by processes of solvent drag and diffusion. Other studies suggest stimulation of specific transcellular electrolyte pathways. It has been believed that canalicular bile salt-independent bile flow is generated by active blood-to-bile electrolyte transport. Actually, available methods do not permit us to conclude with absolute certainty that there is canalicular bile salt-independent flow, although there is considerable evidence for it. New studies suggest that electrolyte transport in this type of flow is passive and that flow is due to transport of organic anions. Ductular flow does seem to be due to active transport of electrolytes, particularly bicarbonate. Better and more direct techniques are required to settle the controversies in this area.
