Abstract
Glucose transporter GLUT1 plays a primary role in the glucose metabolism of cancer cells. Here, we found that cardiac glycosides (CGs) such as ouabain, oleandrin, and digoxin, which are Na+ ,K+ -ATPase inhibitors, decreased the GLUT1 expression in the plasma membrane of human cancer cells (liver cancer HepG2, colon cancer HT-29, gastric cancer MKN45, and oral cancer KB cells). The effective concentration of ouabain was lower than that for inhibiting the activity of Na+ ,K+ -ATPase α1-isoform (α1NaK) in the plasma membrane. The CGs also inhibited [3 H]2-deoxy- d-glucose uptake, lactate secretion, and proliferation of the cancer cells. In intracellular vesicles of human cancer cells, Na+ ,K+ -ATPase α3-isoform (α3NaK) is abnormally expressed. Here, a low concentration of ouabain inhibited the activity of α3NaK. Knockdown of α3NaK significantly inhibited the ouabain-decreased GLUT1 expression in HepG2 cells, while the α1NaK knockdown did not. Consistent with the results in human cancer cells, CGs had no effect on GLUT1 expression in rat liver cancer dRLh-84 cells where α3NaK was not endogenously expressed. Interestingly, CGs decreased GLUT expression in the dRLh-84 cells exogenously expressing α3NaK. In HepG2 cells, α3NaK was found to be colocalized with TPC1, a Ca2+ -releasing channel activated by nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP). The CGs-decreased GLUT1 expression was significantly inhibited by a Ca2+ chelator, a Ca2+ -ATPase inhibitor, and a NAADP antagonist. The GLUT1 decrease was also attenuated by inhibitors of dynamin and phosphatidylinositol-3 kinases (PI3Ks). In conclusion, the binding of CGs to intracellular α3NaK elicits the NAADP-mediated Ca2+ mobilization followed by the dynamin-dependent GLUT1 endocytosis in human cancer cells.

Abstract
Sodium pumps are ubiquitously expressed membrane proteins that extrude three Na+ ions in exchange for two K+ ions, using ATP as an energy source. Recent studies have illuminated additional, dynamic roles for sodium pumps in regulating the excitability of neuronal networks in an activity-dependent fashion. We review their role in a novel form of short-term memory within rhythmic locomotor networks. The data we review derives mainly from recent studies on Xenopus tadpoles and neonatal mice. The role and underlying mechanisms of pump action broadly match previously published data from an invertebrate, the Drosophila larva. We therefore propose a highly conserved mechanism by which sodium pump activity increases following a bout of locomotion. This results in an ultraslow afterhyperpolarization (usAHP) of the membrane potential that lasts around 1 min, but which only occurs in around half the network neurons. This usAHP in turn alters network excitability so that network output is reduced in a locomotor interval-dependent manner. The pumps therefore confer on spinal locomotor networks a temporary memory trace of recent network performance.

Abstract
In this study, alpha (alpha) isoform proteins were purified from the partially purified Na,K-ATPase by SDS-PAGE and electroelution. Peptide mapping showed subtle biochemical differences between alpha subunit proteins of rat and human origin. The purified alpha proteins were treated with formic acid, the cleaved polypeptide fragments were separated by SDS-PAGE, the bands corresponding to 40, 50, and 60 kDa were excised, and the proteins were electroeluted. The purified 40, 50, and 60 kDa polypeptides were essentially homogeneous, and were used for preparation of polyclonal antibodies in rabbits. The antisera to alpha proteins (R alpha) and 60 & 40 kDa polypeptides (R60 & R40) were obtained and characterized by Western blotting. All three antisera were highly specific, since they cross-reacted with only the 100 kDa bands of the crude brainstem homogenates, of the axolemma, and of the cerebral cortex synaptosomes and microsomes. R alpha and R40 were successfully used for immunohistochemical staining of fibers in the white matter of the human brain frontal cortex. These antisera were not isoform-specific, they cross-reacted with 40, 50, and 60 kDa polypeptides as well as the three alpha bands.
