Abstract
Most of pain-relieving agents in chronic pancreatitis are nonspecific and unpredictable. Omeprazole induces hypergastrinemia due to reduced gastric acidity. Raised serum gastrin, in turn, modulates to reduce secretin level. Secretin is responsible for secretion of almost 80 % bicarbonate-rich pancreatic juice from the ductular epithelium without affecting enzyme output. It is a prospective randomized study in patients with CT-confirmed chronic pancreatitis. The control group got the standard care and 60 mg of omeprazole twice daily was added to the test group. Absence of pain relief at 14 days was considered as failure. Pain relief, weight gain and any toxic effect of omeprazole were reviewed at 12 months. One hundred thirty-seven cases were included, with an age range of 19 to 72 years. (mean 42.67). The majority of them were alcoholic males. At 2 weeks, pain relief was noted in 47/69(68.1 %) and 63/65(96.96 %) in the control and omeprazole group, respectively. At the end of 1 year, the omeprazole group had greater weight gain (95 %) than the control group (69.5 %). All the pseudocysts in the omeprazole group and most in the control group resolved. No side effect of omeprazole was seen. The high-dose omeprazole (HDO) group of patients had significantly better pain relief in chronic pancreatitis than those treated with conventional therapy. A high number of cases gained weight in the HDO group than the controlled group. No patient had clinical, endoscopic, biochemical, or haematological toxicity of HDO. More studies are necessary.

Ebselen, a Small-Molecule Capsid Inhibitor of HIV-1 Replication. Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2016; 60:2195-208. [PMID: 26810656 DOI: 10.1128/aac.02574-15] [Citation(s) in RCA: 74] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2015] [Accepted: 01/20/2016] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) capsid plays crucial roles in HIV-1 replication and thus represents an excellent drug target. We developed a high-throughput screening method based on a time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (HTS-TR-FRET) assay, using the C-terminal domain (CTD) of HIV-1 capsid to identify inhibitors of capsid dimerization. This assay was used to screen a library of pharmacologically active compounds, composed of 1,280in vivo-active drugs, and identified ebselen [2-phenyl-1,2-benzisoselenazol-3(2H)-one], an organoselenium compound, as an inhibitor of HIV-1 capsid CTD dimerization. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopic analysis confirmed the direct interaction of ebselen with the HIV-1 capsid CTD and dimer dissociation when ebselen is in 2-fold molar excess. Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry revealed that ebselen covalently binds the HIV-1 capsid CTD, likely via a selenylsulfide linkage with Cys198 and Cys218. This compound presents anti-HIV activity in single and multiple rounds of infection in permissive cell lines as well as in primary peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Ebselen inhibits early viral postentry events of the HIV-1 life cycle by impairing the incoming capsid uncoating process. This compound also blocks infection of other retroviruses, such as Moloney murine leukemia virus and simian immunodeficiency virus, but displays no inhibitory activity against hepatitis C and influenza viruses. This study reports the use of TR-FRET screening to successfully identify a novel capsid inhibitor, ebselen, validating HIV-1 capsid as a promising target for drug development.

Omeprazole, a gastric proton pump inhibitor, inhibits melanogenesis by blocking ATP7A trafficking. J Invest Dermatol 2014; 135:834-841. [PMID: 25337692 DOI: 10.1038/jid.2014.461] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2014] [Revised: 09/27/2014] [Accepted: 09/30/2014] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor used in the treatment of peptic ulcer disease and gastrosophageal reflux disease and acts by irreversibly blocking ATP4A, a P-type H+/K+ ATPase in gastric parietal cells. We found that omeprazole and its closely related congeners inhibited melanogenesis at micromolar concentrations in B16 mouse melanoma cells, normal human epidermal melanocytes, and in a reconstructed human skin model. Omeprazole topically applied to the skin of UV-irradiated human subjects significantly reduced pigment levels after 3 weeks compared with untreated controls. Omeprazole had no significant inhibitory effect on the activities of purified human tyrosinase or on the mRNA levels of tyrosinase, dopachrome tautomerase, Pmel17, or MITF mRNA levels. Although melanocytes do not express ATP4A, they do express ATP7A, a copper transporting P-type ATPase in the trans-Golgi network that is required for copper acquisition by tyrosinase. ATP7A relocalization from the trans-Golgi network to the plasma membrane in response to elevated copper concentrations in melanocytes was inhibited by omeprazole. Omeprazole treatment increased the proportion of EndoH sensitive tyrosinase, indicating that tyrosinase maturation was impaired. In addition, omeprazole reduced tyrosinase protein abundance in the presence of cycloheximide, suggestive of increased degradation. Our findings are consistent with the hypothesis that omeprazole reduces melanogenesis by inhibiting ATP7A and by enhancing degradation of tyrosinase.

Abstract
The effect of omeprazole on the mitochondrial carnitine/acylcarnitine transporter has been studied in proteoliposomes. Externally added omeprazole inhibited the carnitine/carnitine antiport catalysed by the transporter. The inhibition was partially reversed by DTE indicating that it was caused by the covalent reaction of omeprazole with Cys residue(s). Inhibition of the C-less mutant transporter indicated also the occurrence of an alternative non-covalent mechanism. The IC50 of the inhibition of the WT and the C-less CACT by omeprazole were 5.4 µM and 29 µM, respectively. Inhibition kinetics showed non competitive inhibition of the WT and competitive inhibition of the C-less. The presence of carnitine or acylcarnitines during the incubation of the proteoliposomes with omeprazole increased the inhibition. Using site-directed Cys mutants it was demonstrated that C283 and C136 were essential for covalent inhibition. Molecular docking of omeprazole with CACT indicated the formation of both covalent interactions with C136 and C283 and non-covalent interactions in agreement with the experimental data.

Exp Eye Res 2013; 115:113-22. [PMID: 23810808 DOI: 10.1016/j.exer.2013.06.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2012] [Revised: 04/15/2013] [Accepted: 06/07/2013] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Proliferative vitreo retinopathy (PVR) is associated with extracellular matrix membrane (ECM) formation on the neural retina and disruption of the multilayered retinal architecture leading to distorted vision and blindness. During disease progression in PVR, retinal pigmented epithelial cells (RPE) lose cell-cell adhesion, undergo epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and deposit ECM leading to tissue fibrosis. The EMT process is mediated via exposure to vitreous cytokines and growth factors such as TGF-β2. Previous studies have shown that Na,K-ATPase is required for maintaining a normal polarized epithelial phenotype and that decreased Na,K-ATPase function and subunit levels are associated with TGF-β1-mediated EMT in kidney cells. In contrast to the basolateral localization of Na,K-ATPase in most epithelia, including kidney, Na,K-ATPase is found on the apical membrane in RPE cells. We now show that EMT is also associated with altered Na,K-ATPase expression in RPE cells. TGF-β2 treatment of ARPE-19 cells resulted in a time-dependent decrease in Na,K-ATPase β1 mRNA and protein levels while Na,K-ATPase α1 levels, Na,K-ATPase activity, and intracellular sodium levels remained largely unchanged. In TGF-β2-treated cells reduced Na,K-ATPase β1 mRNA inversely correlated with HIF-1α levels and analysis of the Na,K-ATPase β1 promoter revealed a putative hypoxia response element (HRE). HIF-1α bound to the Na,K-ATPase β1 promoter and inhibiting the activity of HIF-1α blocked the TGF-β2 mediated Na,K-ATPase β1 decrease suggesting that HIF-1α plays a potential role in Na,K-ATPase β1 regulation during EMT in RPE cells. Furthermore, knockdown of Na,K-ATPase β1 in ARPE-19 cells was associated with a change in cell morphology from epithelial to mesenchymal and induction of EMT markers such as α-smooth muscle actin and fibronectin, suggesting that loss of Na,K-ATPase β1 is a potential contributor to TGF-β2-mediated EMT in RPE cells.

ATP4A gene regulatory network for fine-tuning of proton pump and ion channels. SYSTEMS AND SYNTHETIC BIOLOGY 2013; 7:23-32.

Abstract
The ATP4A encodes α subunit of H(+), K(+)-ATPase that contains catalytic sites of the enzyme forming pores through cell membrane which allows the ion transport. H(+), K(+)-ATPase is a membrane bound P-type ATPase enzyme which is found on the surface of parietal cells and uses the energy derived from each cycle of ATP hydrolysis that can help in exchanging ions (H(+), K(+) and Cl(-)) across the cell membrane secreting acid into the gastric lumen. The 3-D model of α-subunit of H(+), K(+)-ATPase was generated by homology modeling. It was evaluated and validated on the basis of free energies and amino acid residues. The inhibitor binding amino acid active pockets were identified in the 3-D model by molecular docking. The two drugs Omeprazole and Rabeprazole were found more potent interactions with generated model of α-subunit of H(+), K(+)-ATPase on the basis of their affinity between drug-protein interactions. We have generated ATP4A gene regulatory networks for interactions with other proteins which involved in regulation that can help in fine-tuning of proton pump and ion channels. These findings provide a new dimension for discovery and development of proton pump inhibitors and gene regulation of the ATPase. It can be helpful in better understanding of human physiology and also using synthetic biology strategy for reprogramming of parietal cells for control of gastric ulcers.

Abstract
Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase, an integral membrane protein, has been studied for over a half century with respect to its transporter function in the plasma membrane, where it expels three Na(+) ions from the cell in exchange for two K(+) ions. In this study, we demonstrate a functioning Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase within HEK293 cell nuclei. This subcellular localization was confirmed by western blotting, ouabain-sensitive ATPase activity of the nuclear membrane fraction, immunocytochemistry and delivery of fluorescently tagged Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase α- and β-subunits. In addition, we observed an overlap between nuclear Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase and Na/Ca-exchanger (NCX) when nuclei were immunostained with commercially available Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase and NCX antibodies, suggesting a concerted physiological coupling between these transporters. In keeping with this, we observed an ATP-dependent, strophanthidin-sensitive Na(+) flux into the nuclear envelope (NE) lumen loaded with the Na-sensitive dye, CoroNa-Green. Analogous experiments using Fluo-5N, a low affinity Ca(2+) indicator, demonstrated a similar ATP-dependent and strophanthidin-sensitive Ca(2+) flux into the NE lumen. Our results reveal an intracellular physiological role for the coordinated efforts of the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase and NCX to actively remove Ca(2+) from the nucleoplasm into the NE lumen (i.e. the nucleoplasmic reticulum).

Abstract
Diminished Na,K-ATPase expression has been reported in several carcinomas and has been linked to tumor progression. However, few studies have determined whether Na,K-ATPase function and expression are altered in lung malignancies. Because cigarette smoke (CS) is a major factor underlying lung carcinogenesis and progression, we investigated whether CS affects Na,K-ATPase activity and expression in lung cell lines. Cells exposed to CS in vitro showed a reduction of Na,K-ATPase activity. We detected the presence of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cells exposed to CS before Na,K-ATPase inhibition, and neutralization of ROS restored Na,K-ATPase activity. We further determined whether Na,K-ATPase expression correlated with increasing grades of lung adenocarcinoma and survival of patients with smoking history. Immunohistochemical analysis of lung adenocarcinoma tissues revealed reduced Na,K-ATPase expression with increasing tumor grade. Using tissue microarray containing lung adenocarcinomas of patients with known smoking status, we found that high expression of Na,K-ATPase correlated with better survival. For the first time, these data demonstrate that CS is associated with loss of Na,K-ATPase function and expression in lung carcinogenesis, which might contribute to disease progression.

Abstract
P-type ATPases catalyze the selective active transport of ions like H+, Na+, K+, Ca2+, Zn2+, and Cu2+ across diverse biological membrane systems. Many members of the P-type ATPase protein family, such as the Na+,K+-, H+,K+-, Ca2+-, and H+-ATPases, are involved in the development of pathophysiological conditions or provide critical function to pathogens. Therefore, they seem to be promising targets for future drugs and novel antifungal agents and herbicides. Here, we review the current knowledge about P-type ATPase inhibitors and their present use as tools in science, medicine, and biotechnology. Recent structural information on a variety of P-type ATPase family members signifies that all P-type ATPases can be expected to share a similar basic structure and a similar basic machinery of ion transport. The ion transport pathway crossing the membrane lipid bilayer is constructed of two access channels leading from either side of the membrane to the ion binding sites at a central cavity. The selective opening and closure of the access channels allows vectorial access/release of ions from the binding sites. Recent structural information along with new homology modeling of diverse P-type ATPases in complex with known ligands demonstrate that the most proficient way for the development of efficient and selective drugs is to target their ion transport pathway.

Abstract
The effect of omeprazole on the carnitine (OCTN2) transporter reconstituted in liposomes has been studied. Omeprazole externally added to the proteoliposomes, inhibited the carnitine/carnitine antiport catalysed by the reconstituted transporter. The inhibition was partially reversed by DTE indicating that it was caused by the covalent reaction of omeprazole with Cys residue(s) of the transporter. Similar results were found with intact brush border vesicles. The residual inhibition of the transport in the presence of DTE, indicated the occurrence of an alternative inhibition mechanism of non-covalent nature. The IC(50) of the two inhibition modes derived from dose-response curves, were 5.7 microM and 20.4 microM, respectively. Kinetic studies of the inhibition showed that in the absence of DTE omeprazole behaved as non-competitive inhibitor. On the contrary, in the presence of DTE competitive inhibition was found. The K(i) of the transporter for the inhibitor was 5.2 microM or 14.6 microM in the absence or presence of DTE, i.e., under condition of covalent (non-competitive) or non-covalent (competitive) interaction of the inhibitor with the transporter. The presence of the substrate during the incubation of the omeprazole (in the absence of DTE) with the proteoliposomes facilitated the covalent reaction of the pharmacological compound with the transporter. Omeprazole did not inhibit when present in the internal proteoliposomal compartment, indicating that the inhibition was specifically due to interaction with external site(s) of the protein. The pharmacological compound was not transported by the reconstituted transporter. The possible in vivo implications of the interaction of omeprazole with the transporter are discussed.

Abstract
Two H(+), K(+)-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) proteins participate in K(+) absorption and H(+) secretion in the renal medulla. Both the gastric (HKalpha(1)) and colonic (HKalpha(2)) H(+),K(+)-ATPases have been localized and characterized by a number of techniques, and are known to be highly regulated in response to acid-base and electrolyte disturbances. Both ATPases are dimers of composition alpha/beta that localize to the apical membrane and both interact with the tetraspanin protein CD63. Although CD63 interacts with the carboxy-terminus of the alpha-subunit of the colonic H(+),K(+)-ATPase, it interacts with the beta-subunit of the gastric H(+),K(+)-ATPase. Pharmacologically, both ATPases are distinct; for example, the gastric H(+),K(+)-ATPase is inhibited by Sch-28080, but the colonic H(+),K(+)-ATPase is inhibited by ouabain (a classic inhibitor of the Na(+)-pump) and is completely insensitive to Sch-28080. The alpha-subunit of the colonic H(+),K(+)-ATPase is the only subunit of the X(+),K(+)-ATPase superfamily that has 3 different splice variants that emerge by deletion or elongation of the amino-terminus. The messenger RNA and protein of one of these splice variants (HKalpha(2C)) is specifically up-regulated in newborn rats and becomes undetectable in adult rats. Therefore, HKalpha(2), in addition to its role in potassium and acid-base homeostasis, appears to play a significant role in early growth and development. Finally, because chronic hypokalemia appears to be the most potent stimulus for upregulation of HKalpha(2), we propose that the HKalpha(2) participates importantly in the maintenance of chronic metabolic alkalosis.

Abstract
Na,K-ATPase is a hetero-oligomer of alpha and beta-subunits. The Na,K-ATPase beta-subunit (Na,K-beta) is involved in both the regulation of ion transport activity, and in cell-cell adhesion. By structure prediction and evolutionary analysis, we identified two distinct faces on the Na,K-beta transmembrane domain (TMD) that could mediate protein-protein interactions: a glycine zipper motif and a conserved heptad repeat. Here, we show that the heptad repeat face is involved in the hetero-oligomeric interaction of Na,K-beta with Na,K-alpha, and the glycine zipper face is involved in the homo-oligomerization of Na,K-beta. Point mutations in the heptad repeat motif reduced Na,K-beta binding to Na,K-alpha, and Na,K-ATPase activity. Na,K-beta TMD homo-oligomerized in biological membranes, and mutation of the glycine zipper motif affected oligomerization and cell-cell adhesion. These results provide a structural basis for understanding how Na,K-beta links ion transport and cell-cell adhesion.

Abstract
We have previously reported that SAP97 enhancement of hKv1.5 currents requires an intact Kv1.5 N-terminus and is independent of the PDZ-binding motif at the C-terminus of the channel [J. Eldstrom, W.S. Choi, D.F. Steele, D. Fedida, SAP97 increases Kv1.5 currents through an indirect N-terminal mechanism, FEBS Lett. 547 (2003) 205-211]. Here, we report that an interaction between the two proteins can be detected under certain conditions but their interaction is irrelevant to the enhancement of channel expression. Instead, a threonine residue at position 15 in the hKv1.5 N-terminus is critically important. Mutation of this residue, which lies within a consensus site for phosphorylation by protein kinase C, to an alanine, completely abrogated the effect of SAP97 on channel expression. Although we were unable to detect phosphorylation of this residue, specific inhibition of kinase C by Calphostin C eliminated the increase in wild-type hKv1.5 currents associated with SAP97 overexpression suggesting a role for this kinase in the response.

Abstract
Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells (CHO-K1) were transiently and stably transfected to express the human angiotensin AT(1) receptor. Cell surface receptor expression was maximal 2 days after transient transfection. Their pharmacological and signalling properties differed from stably expressed receptors. Receptor reserve was significant in the transient cells but not in stable cells, explaining the higher potency of angiotensin II and the lower degree of insurmountable inhibition by candesartan in the transient cells. [Sar(1)Ile(8)]angiotensin II (sarile) is a potent angiotensin AT(1) receptor antagonist for the stable cells but is a partial agonist, producing 19% of the maximal response by angiotensin II, in transient cells. Internalization of [(3)H]angiotensin II and [(125)I]sarile (i.e., acid-resistant binding) was more pronounced in stable cells. CHO-K1 cells were also transiently transfected with the enhanced green fluorescence-AT(1) receptor gene. Confocal microscopy revealed rapid internalization induced by angiotensin II and sarile but not by candesartan. The above disparities may result from differences in receptor maturation and/or cellular surrounding.

Abstract
High-throughput screening (HTS) of large compound collections typically results in numerous small molecule hits that must be carefully evaluated to identify valid drug leads. Although several filtering mechanisms and other tools exist that can assist the chemist in this process, it is often the case that costly synthetic resources are expended in pursuing false positives. We report here a rapid and reliable NMR-based method for identifying reactive false positives including those that oxidize or alkylate a protein target. Importantly, the reactive species need not be the parent compound, as both reactive impurities and breakdown products can be detected. The assay is called ALARM NMR (a La assay to detect reactive molecules by nuclear magnetic resonance) and is based on monitoring DTT-dependent (13)C chemical shift changes of the human La antigen in the presence of a test compound or mixture. Extensive validation has been performed to demonstrate the reliability and utility of using ALARM NMR to assess thiol reactivity. This included comparing ALARM NMR to a glutathione-based fluorescence assay, as well as testing a collection of more than 3500 compounds containing HTS hits from 23 drug targets. The data show that current in silico filtering tools fail to identify more than half of the compounds that can act via reactive mechanisms. Significantly, we show how ALARM NMR data has been critical in identifying reactive compounds that would otherwise have been prioritized for lead optimization. In addition, a new filtering tool has been developed on the basis of the ALARM NMR data that can augment current in silico programs for identifying nuisance compounds and improving the process of hit triage.

Abstract
The gastric H+, K+-ATPase is a proton pump that is responsible for gastric acid secretion and that actively transports protons and K+ ions in opposite directions to generate in excess of a million-fold gradient across the membrane under physiological conditions. This pump is also a target molecule of proton pump inhibitors which are used for the clinical treatment of hyperacidity. In this review, we wish to summarize the molecular regulation of this pump based on mutational studies, particularly those used for the identification of binding sites for cations and specific inhibitors. Recent reports by Toyoshima et al (2000, 2002) presented precise three-dimensional (3-D) structures of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+-ATPase, which belongs to the same family as the gastric H+, K+-ATPase. We have studied the structure-function relationships for the gastric H+, K+-ATPase using 3-D structures constructed by homology modeling of the related SR Ca2+-ATPase, which was used as a template molecule. We also discuss in this review, the regulation of cell surface expression and synthesis control of the gastric proton pump.

Abstract
The Na,K-ATPase consists of two essential alpha- and beta-subunits and regulates the intracellular Na+ and K+ homeostasis. Although the alpha-subunit contains the catalytic activity, it is not active without functional beta-subunit. Here, we report that poorly differentiated carcinoma cell lines derived from colon, breast, kidney, and pancreas show reduced expression of the Na,K-ATPase beta1-subunit. Decreased expression of beta1-subunit in poorly differentiated carcinoma cell lines correlated with increased expression of the transcription factor Snail known to down-regulate E-cadherin. Ectopic expression of Snail in well-differentiated epithelial cell lines reduced the protein levels of E-cadherin and beta1-subunit and induced a mesenchymal phenotype. Reduction of Snail expression in a poorly differentiated carcinoma cell line by RNA interference increased the levels of Na,K-ATPase beta1-subunit. Furthermore, Snail binds to a noncanonical E-box in the Na,K-ATPase beta1-subunit promoter and suppresses its promoter activity. These results suggest that down-regulation of Na,K-ATPase beta1-subunit and E-cadherin by Snail are associated with events leading to epithelial to mesenchymal transition.

Abstract
The gastric proton pump, H(+),K(+)-ATPase, consists of the catalytic alpha-subunit and the noncatalytic beta-subunit. These subunits are assembled in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and leave the ER to reach to the cell surface as a functional holoenzyme. We studied the quantity control mechanism of the H(+),K(+)-ATPase in the ER by using a heterologous expression system in human embryonic kidney 293 cells. The alpha-subunit in the alpha-expressing cells was degraded more rapidly than in the alpha+beta-expressing cells. It was stabilized, however, in the presence of a proteasome inhibitor, lactacystin. Polyubiquitination of the alpha-subunit was observed in the alpha-expressing cells as well as in the alpha+beta-expressing cells. The extent of polyubiquitination was higher in the former alpha-expressing cells especially in the presence of lactacystin. On the other hand, polyubiquitination of the beta-subunit was not observed in the absence and presence of lactacystin. When the alpha-subunit was coexpressed with a mutant beta-subunit that lacks alpha/beta assembly capacity, degradation of the alpha-subunit was accelerated in parallel with increased polyubiquitination of the alpha-subunit. These results indicate that the ubiquitin/proteasome system is involved in degradation of the unassembled alpha-subunits in the ER to control the cell surface expression of the functional alpha/beta holoenzymes.

Abstract
Inhibition of the gastric H,K-ATPase by the imidazo[1,2-alpha]pyridine, SCH28080, is strictly competitive with respect to K+ or its surrogate, NH4+. The inhibitory kinetics [V(max), K(m,app)(NH4+), K(i)(SCH28080), and competitive, mixed, or noncompetitive] of mutants can define the inhibitor binding domain and the route to the ion binding region within M4-6. While mutations Y799F, Y802F, I803L, S806N, V807I (M5), L811V (M5-6), Y928H (M8), and Q905N (M7-8) had no effect on inhibitor kinetics, mutations P798C, Y802L, P810A, P810G, C813A or -S, I814V or -F, F818C, T823V (M5, M5-6, and M6), E914Q, F917Y, G918E, T929L, and F932L (M7-8 and M8) reduced the affinity for SCH28080 up to 10-fold without affecting the nature of the kinetics. In contrast, the L809F substitution in the loop between M5 and M6 resulted in an approximately 100-fold decrease in inhibitor affinity, and substitutions L809V, I816L, Y925F, and M937V (M5-6, M6, and M8) reduced the inhibitor affinity by 10-fold, all resulting in noncompetitive kinetics. The mutants L811F, Y922I, and I940A also reduced the inhibitor affinity up to 10-fold but resulted in mixed inhibition. The mutations I819L, Q923V, and Y925A also gave mixed inhibition but without a change in inhibitor affinity. These data, and the 9-fold loss of SCH28080 affinity in the C813T mutant, suggest that the binding domain for SCH28080 contains the surface between L809 in the M5-6 loop and C813 at the luminal end of M6, approximately two helical turns down from the ion binding region, where it blocks the normal ion access pathway. On the basis of a model of the Ca-ATPase in the E2 conformation (PDB entry 1kju), the mutants that change the nature of the kinetics are arranged on one side of M8 and on the adjacent side of the M5-6 loop and M6 itself. This suggests that mutations in this region modify the enzyme structure so that K+ can access the ion binding domain even with SCH28080 bound.

Abstract
The gastric proton pump, H(+),K(+)-ATPase, consists of the catalytic alpha-subunit and the non-catalytic beta-subunit. Correct assembly between the alpha- and beta-subunits is essential for the functional expression of H(+),K(+)-ATPase. The beta-subunit contains nine conserved cysteine residues; two are in the cytoplasmic domain, one in the transmembrane domain, and six in the ectodomain. The six cysteine residues in the ectodomain form three disulfide bonds. In this study, we replaced each of the cysteine residues of the beta-subunit with serine individually and in several combinations. The mutant beta-subunits were co-expressed with the alpha-subunit in human embryonic kidney 293 cells, and the role of each cysteine residue or disulfide bond in the alpha/beta assembly, stability, and cell surface delivery of the alpha- and beta-subunits and H(+),K(+)-ATPase activity was studied. Mutant beta-subunits with a replacement of the cytoplasmic and transmembrane cysteines preserved H(+),K(+)-ATPase activity. All the mutant beta-subunits with replacement(s) of the extracellular cysteines did not assemble with the alpha-subunit, resulting in loss of H(+),K(+)-ATPase activity. These mutants did not permit delivery of the alpha-subunit to the cell surface. Therefore, each of these disulfide bonds of the beta-subunit is essential for assembly with the alpha-subunit and expression of H(+),K(+)-ATPase activity as well as for cell surface delivery of the alpha-subunit.

Abstract
The Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase is a heterodimeric plasma membrane protein responsible for cellular ionic homeostasis in nearly all animal cells. It has been shown that some insect cells (e.g., High Five cells) have no (or extremely low) Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity. We expressed sheep kidney Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase alpha- and beta-subunits individually and together in High Five cells via the baculovirus expression system. We used quantitative slot-blot analyses to determine that the expressed Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase comprises between 0.5% and 2% of the total membrane protein in these cells. Using a five-step sucrose gradient (0.8-2.0 M) to separate the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and plasma membrane fractions, we observed functional Na(+) pump molecules in each membrane pool and characterized their properties. Nearly all of the expressed protein functions normally, similar to that found in purified dog kidney enzyme preparations. Consequently, the measurements described here were not complicated by an abundance of nonfunctional heterologously expressed enzyme. Specifically, ouabain-sensitive ATPase activity, [(3)H]ouabain binding, and cation dependencies were measured for each fraction. The functional properties of the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase were essentially unaltered after assembly in the endoplasmic reticulum. In addition, we measured ouabain-sensitive (86)Rb(+) uptake in whole cells as a means to specifically evaluate Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase molecules that were properly folded and delivered to the plasma membrane. We could not measure any ouabain-sensitive activities when either the alpha-subunit or beta-subunit were expressed individually. Immunostaining of the separate membrane fractions indicates that the alpha-subunit, when expressed alone, is degraded early in the protein maturation pathway (i.e., the endoplasmic reticulum) but that the beta-subunit is processed normally and delivered to the plasma membrane. Thus it appears that only the alpha-subunit has an oligomeric requirement for maturation and trafficking to the plasma membrane. Furthermore, assembly of the alpha-beta heterodimer within the endoplasmic reticulum apparently does not require a Na(+) pump-specific chaperone.

Abstract
The sixth transmembrane (M6) segment of the catalytic subunit plays an important role in the ion recognition and transport in the type II P-type ATPase families. In this study, we singly mutated all amino acid residues in the M6 segment of gastric H(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha-subunit with alanine, expressed the mutants in HEK-293 cells, and studied the effects of the mutation on the functions of H(+),K(+)-ATPase; overall K(+)-stimulated ATPase, phosphorylation, and dephosphorylation. Four mutants, L819A, D826A, I827A, and L833A, completely lost the K(+)-ATPase activity. Mutant L819A was phosphorylated but hardly dephosphorylated in the presence of K(+), whereas mutants D826A, I827A, and L833A were not phosphorylated from ATP. We found that almost all of these amino acid residues, which are important for the function, are located on the same side of the alpha-helix of the M6 segment. In addition, we found that amino acids involved in the phosphorylation are located exclusively in the cytoplasmic half of the M6 segment and those involved in the K(+)-dependent dephosphorylation are in the luminal half. Several mutants such as I821A, L823A, T825A, and P829A partly retained the K(+)-ATPase activity accompanying the decrease in the rate of phosphorylation.

Abstract
The gastric H,K-ATPase is inhibited selectively and K(+)-competitively from its luminal surface by protonated imidazo[1,2alpha]pyridines (e.g., SCH28080). Identification of the amino acids in the membrane domain that affect SCH28080 inhibition should provide a template for modeling a luminally directed vestibule in this enzyme, based on the crystal structure of the sr Ca-ATPase. Five conserved carboxylic residues, Glu343, Glu795, Glu820, Asp824, Glu936, and unique Lys791 in the H,K-ATPase were mutated, and the effects of mutations on the K(i) for SCH28080, V(max), and K(m,app)[NH(4)(+)] were measured. A kinetic analysis of the ATP hydrolysis data indicated that all of these residues significantly affect the interaction of NH(4)(+) ions with the protein but only three of them, Glu795, Glu936, and Lys791, greatly affected SCH28080 inhibition. A Glu795Asp mutation increased the K(i) from 64 +/- 11 to 700 +/- 110 nM. Since, however, the mutation Glu795Gln did not change the K(i) (86 +/- 31 nM), this site has a significant spatial effect on inhibitor kinetics. A Glu936Asp mutation resulted in noncompetitive kinetics while Gln substitution had no effect either on inhibitor affinity or on the nature of the kinetics, suggesting that the length of the Glu936 side chain is critical for the exclusive binding of the ion and SCH28080. Mutation of Lys791 to Ser, the residue present in the SCH28080-insensitive Na,K-ATPase, resulted in a 20-fold decrease in SCH28080 affinity, suggesting an important role of this residue in SCH28080 selectivity of the H,K-ATPase versus Na,K-ATPase. Mutations of Asp824, Glu343, and Glu820 increased the K(i) 2-3-fold, implying a relatively minor role for these residues in SCH28080 inhibition. It appears that the imidazopyridine moiety of SCH28080 in the protonated state interacts with residues near the negatively charged residues of the empty ion site from the luminal side (TM4, -5, -6, and -8) while the hydrophobic phenyl ring interacts with TM1 or TM2 (the latter conclusion based on previous data from photoaffinity labeling). The integrity of the SCH28080 binding site depends on the presence of Lys791, Glu936, and Glu795 in H,K-ATPase. A computer-generated model of this region illustrates the possible involvement of the residues previously shown to affect SCH28080 inhibition (Cys813, Ile816, Thr823, Met334, Val337) and may predict other residues that line the SCH28080 binding vestibule in the E(2) conformation of the pump.

Abstract
The crystal structure of SERCA1a (skeletal-muscle sarcoplasmic-reticulum/endoplasmic-reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase) has recently been determined at 2.6 A (note 1 A = 0.1 nm) resolution [Toyoshima, Nakasako, Nomura and Ogawa (2000) Nature (London) 405, 647-655]. Other P-type ATPases are thought to share key features of the ATP hydrolysis site and a central core of transmembrane helices. Outside of these most-conserved segments, structural similarities are less certain, and predicted transmembrane topology differs between subclasses. In the present review the homologous regions of several representative P-type ATPases are aligned with the SERCA sequence and mapped on to the SERCA structure for comparison. Homology between SERCA and the Na,K-ATPase is more extensive than with any other ATPase, even PMCA, the Ca(2+)-ATPase of plasma membrane. Structural features of the Na,K-ATPase are projected on to the Ca(2+)-ATPase crystal structure to assess the likelihood that they share the same fold. Homology extends through all ten transmembrane spans, and most insertions and deletions are predicted to be at the surface. The locations of specific residues are examined, such as proteolytic cleavage sites, intramolecular cross-linking sites, and the binding sites of certain other proteins. On the whole, the similarity supports a shared fold, with some particular exceptions.

Abstract
The cell adhesion molecule E-cadherin has been implicated in maintaining the polarized phenotype of epithelial cells and suppression of invasiveness and motility of carcinoma cells. Na,K-ATPase, consisting of an alpha- and beta-subunit, maintains the sodium gradient across the plasma membrane. A functional relationship between E-cadherin and Na,K-ATPase has not previously been described. We present evidence that the Na,K-ATPase plays a crucial role in E-cadherin-mediated development of epithelial polarity, and suppression of invasiveness and motility of carcinoma cells. Moloney sarcoma virus-transformed Madin-Darby canine kidney cells (MSV-MDCK) have highly reduced levels of E-cadherin and beta(1)-subunit of Na,K-ATPase. Forced expression of E-cadherin in MSV-MDCK cells did not reestablish epithelial polarity or inhibit the invasiveness and motility of these cells. In contrast, expression of E-cadherin and Na,K-ATPase beta(1)-subunit induced epithelial polarization, including the formation of tight junctions and desmosomes, abolished invasiveness, and reduced cell motility in MSV-MDCK cells. Our results suggest that E-cadherin-mediated cell-cell adhesion requires the Na,K-ATPase beta-subunit's function to induce epithelial polarization and suppress invasiveness and motility of carcinoma cells. Involvement of the beta(1)-subunit of Na,K-ATPase in the polarized phenotype of epithelial cells reveals a novel link between the structural organization and vectorial ion transport function of epithelial cells.

Abstract
Na(+),K(+)-ATPase is inhibited by cardiac glycosides such as ouabain, and palytoxin, which do not inhibit gastric H(+),K(+)-ATPase. Gastric H(+),K(+)-ATPase is inhibited by SCH28080, which has no effect on Na(+),K(+)-ATPase. The goal of the current study was to identify amino acid sequences of the gastric proton-potassium pump that are involved in recognition of the pump-specific inhibitor SCH 28080. A chimeric polypeptide consisting of the rat sodium pump alpha3 subunit with the peptide Gln(905)-Val(930) of the gastric proton pump alpha subunit substituted in place of the original Asn(886)-Ala(911) sequence was expressed together with the gastric beta subunit in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Yeast cells that express this subunit combination are sensitive to palytoxin, which interacts specifically with the sodium pump, and lose intracellular K(+) ions. The palytoxin-induced K(+) efflux is inhibited by the sodium pump-specific inhibitor ouabain and also by the gastric proton pump-specific inhibitor SCH 28080. The IC(50) for SCH 28080 inhibition of palytoxin-induced K(+) efflux is 14.3 +/- 2.4 microm, which is similar to the K(i) for SCH 28080 inhibition of ATP hydrolysis by the gastric H(+),K(+)-ATPase. In contrast, palytoxin-induced K(+) efflux from cells expressing either the native alpha3 and beta1 subunits of the sodium pump or the alpha3 subunit of the sodium pump together with the beta subunit of the gastric proton pump is inhibited by ouabain but not by SCH 28080. The acquisition of SCH 28080 sensitivity by the chimera indicates that the Gln(905)-Val(930) peptide of the gastric proton pump is likely to be involved in the interactions of the gastric proton-potassium pump with SCH 28080.

Abstract
Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is the most common peptic acid disease in the western world and is the commonest indication for acid suppression therapy. Major advances have been made over the past 30 years in the understanding of lower oesophageal sphincter function and the mechanism of acid secretion. Developments in surgical and pharmacological therapy have paralleled these advances. Pharmacotherapy for GERD has evolved from antacids to H2-receptor antagonists (H2RAs) to prokinetics to proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). The H2RAs, while modestly effective in symptom relief and healing of GERD, are limited by pharmacological tolerance. The prokinetics (metoclopramide and cisapride) are limited by low efficacy, pharmacological tolerance and toxicity. The PPIs have emerged as the most effective therapy for symptom relief, healing and long-term maintenance. They have also proved to be remarkably safe and cost-effective in long-term therapy. This review evaluates the pharmacology, efficacy, tolerability, safety and cost-effectiveness of the four currently available PPIs, lansoprazole, omeprazole, pantoprazole and rabeprazole, in the treatment of GERD.

Abstract
Gastric H(+),K(+)-ATPase consists of alpha and beta-subunits. The alpha-subunit is the catalytic subunit, and the beta-subunit is a glycoprotein stabilizing the alpha/beta complex in the membrane as a functional enzyme. There are seven putative N-glycosylation sites on the beta-subunit. In this study, we examined the roles of the carbohydrate chains of the beta-subunit by expressing the alpha-subunit together with the beta-subunit in which one, several, or all of the asparagine residues in the N-glycosylation sites were replaced by glutamine. Removing any one of seven carbohydrate chains from the beta-subunit retained the H(+),K(+)-ATPase activity. The effects of a series of progressive removals of carbohydrate chains on the H(+),K(+)-ATPase activity were cumulative, and removal of all carbohydrate chains resulted in the complete loss of H(+), K(+)-ATPase activity. Removal of any single carbohydrate chain did not affect the alpha/beta assembly; however, little alpha/beta assembly was observed after removal of all the carbohydrate chains from the beta-subunit. In contrast, removal of three carbohydrate chains inhibited the surface delivery of the beta-subunit and the alpha-subunit assembled with the beta-subunit, indicating that the surface delivery mechanism is more dependent on the carbohydrate chains than the expression of the H(+),K(+)-ATPase activity and alpha/beta assembly.

Abstract
The gastric H,K-ATPase is covalently inhibited by substituted pyridyl-methylsulfinyl-benzimidazoles, such as omeprazole, that convert to thiophilic probes of luminally accessible cysteines in the acid space. The K(+) competitive inhibitor, SCH28080, prevented inhibition of acid transport by omeprazole. In stably expressing HEK293 cells, the benzimidazole-reactive cysteines, Cys-321 (transmembrane helix (TM) 3), Cys-813 and Cys-822 (TM5/6), and Cys-892 (TM7/8) were mutated to the amino acids found in the SCH28080-resistant Na,K-ATPase and kinetic parameters of H,K-ATPase activity analyzed. Mutations of Cys-822 and Cys-892 had insignificant effects on the K(i(app)), K(m(app)) or V(max), but mutations of Cys-813 to threonine and Cys-321 to alanine decreased the affinity for SCH28080. Mutation of Cys-321 to alanine produced mixed kinetics of inhibition, still with higher affinity for the cation-free form of phosphoenzyme. Since the phenylmethoxy ring of the imidazo-pyridine inhibitors binds to TM1/2, as shown by earlier photoaffinity studies, and the mutations in TM6 (Cys-813 --> Thr) as well as the end of TM3 (Cys-321 --> Ala) decrease the affinity for SCH28080, the TM1/2, TM3, and TM6 helices lie within approximately 16 A of each other based on the size of the active, extended conformation of SCH28080.

Abstract
This paper summarizes important developments, published over the past year, that improve our understanding of the regulation of gastric acid secretion at the central, peripheral, and intracellular levels and mechanisms by which various neurotransmitters, paracrine agents, and hormones regulate gastric secretion and are themselves regulated. The main stimulants of acid secretion from the parietal cell are histamine, gastrin, and acetylcholine. Histamine, released from fundic enterochromaffin-like cells, interacts with H(2) receptors on parietal cells that are coupled via separate G proteins to activation of adenylate cyclase and phospholipase C. The antral hormone gastrin, released by activation of cholinergic and bombesin/gastrin-releasing peptide neurons, acts mainly by release of histamine from enterochromaffin-like cells. Acetylcholine, released from gastric intramural neurons, interacts with muscarinic M(3) receptors on parietal cells and has little, if any, effect on histamine secretion. The main inhibitor of acid secretion is somatostatin, which, acting via sst(2) receptors, exerts a tonic restraint on parietal, enterochromaffin-like, and gastrin cells. In patients with duodenal ulcer, infection with Helicobacter pylori is associated with increased basal and stimulated plasma gastrin concentrations and acid outputs. The precise mechanisms mediating the effects are not known, but evidence suggests that both products of the bacteria and the inflammatory infiltrate are capable of stimulating gastrin and acid secretion.

Abstract
The integral membrane protein, the gastric H,K-ATPase, is an alpha-beta heterodimer, with 10 putative transmembrane segments in the alpha-subunit and one such segment in the beta-subunit. All transmembrane segments remain within the membrane domain following trypsinization of the intact gastric H,K-ATPase in the presence of K+ ions, identified as M1M2, M3M4, M5M6, and M7, M8, M9, and M10. Removal of K+ ions from this digested preparation results in the selective loss of the M5M6 hairpin from the membrane. The release of the M5M6 fragment is directed to the extracellular phase as evidenced by the accumulation of the released M5M6 hairpin inside the sealed inside out vesicles. The stabilization of the M5M6 hairpin in the membrane phase by the transported cation as well as loss to the aqueous phase in the absence of the transported cation has been previously observed for another P2-type ATPase, the Na, K-ATPase (Lutsenko, S., Anderko, R., and Kaplan, J. H. (1995) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 92, 7936-7940). Thus, the effects of the counter-transported cation on retention of the M5M6 segment in the membrane as compared with the other membrane pairs may be a general feature of P2-ATPase ion pumps, reflecting a flexibility of this region that relates to the mechanism of transport.

Abstract
In current topological models, the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase contains 10 putative transmembrane spans (M1-M10), with spans M4/M5/M6 and probably M8 participating in the formation of the membranous calcium-binding sites. We describe here the conformational properties of a synthetic peptide fragment (E785-N810) encompassing the sixth transmembrane span (M6) of Ca2+-ATPase. Peptide M6 includes three residues (N796, T799, and D800) out of the six membranous residues critically involved in the ATPase calcium-binding sites. 2D-NMR experiments were performed on the M6 peptide selectively labeled with 15N and solubilized in dodecylphosphocholine micelles to mimic a membrane-like environment. Under these conditions, M6 adopts a helical structure in its N-terminal part, between residues I788 and T799, while its C-terminal part (G801-N810) remains disordered. Addition of 20% trifluoroethanol stabilizes the alpha-helical N-terminal segment of the peptide, and reveals the propensity of the C-terminal segment (G801-L807) to form also a helix. This second helix is located at the interface or in the aqueous environment outside the micelles, while the N-terminal helix is buried in the hydrophobic core of the micelles. Furthermore, the two helical segments of M6 are linked by a flexible hinge region containing residues T799 and D800. These conformational features may be related to the transient formation of a Schellman motif (L797VTDGL802) encoded in the M6 sequence, which probably acts as a C-cap of the N-terminal helix and induces a bend with respect to the helix axis. We propose a model illustrating two conformations of M6 and its insertion in the membrane. The presence of a flexible region within M6 would greatly facilitate concomitant participation of all three residues (N796, T799, and D800) believed to be involved in calcium complexation.
