Abstract
Na+/K+-ATPase is a transmembrane protein that has important roles in the maintenance of electrochemical gradients across cell membranes by transporting three Na+ out of and two K+ into cells. Additionally, Na+/K+-ATPase participates in Ca2+-signaling transduction and neurotransmitter release by coordinating the ion concentration gradient across the cell membrane. Na+/K+-ATPase works synergistically with multiple ion channels in the cell membrane to form a dynamic network of ion homeostatic regulation and affects cellular communication by regulating chemical signals and the ion balance among different types of cells. Therefore, it is not surprising that Na+/K+-ATPase dysfunction has emerged as a risk factor for a variety of neurological diseases. However, published studies have so far only elucidated the important roles of Na+/K+-ATPase dysfunction in disease development, and we are lacking detailed mechanisms to clarify how Na+/K+-ATPase affects cell function. Our recent studies revealed that membrane loss of Na+/K+-ATPase is a key mechanism in many neurological disorders, particularly stroke and Parkinson's disease. Stabilization of plasma membrane Na+/K+-ATPase with an antibody is a novel strategy to treat these diseases. For this reason, Na+/K+-ATPase acts not only as a simple ion pump but also as a sensor/regulator or cytoprotective protein, participating in signal transduction such as neuronal autophagy and apoptosis, and glial cell migration. Thus, the present review attempts to summarize the novel biological functions of Na+/K+-ATPase and Na+/K+-ATPase-related pathogenesis. The potential for novel strategies to treat Na+/K+-ATPase-related brain diseases will also be discussed.

Abstract
This historical review traces key discoveries regarding K+ and Na+ ions in skeletal muscle at rest and with exercise, including contents and concentrations, Na+,K+-ATPase (NKA) and exercise effects on plasma [K+] in humans. Following initial measures in 1896 of muscle contents in various species, including humans, electrical stimulation of animal muscle showed K+ loss and gains in Na+, Cl- and H20, then subsequently bidirectional muscle K+ and Na+ fluxes. After NKA discovery in 1957, methods were developed to quantify muscle NKA activity via rates of ATP hydrolysis, Na+/K+ radioisotope fluxes, [3H]-ouabain binding and phosphatase activity. Since then, it became clear that NKA plays a central role in Na+/K+ homeostasis and that NKA content and activity are regulated by muscle contractions and numerous hormones. During intense exercise in humans, muscle intracellular [K+] falls by 21 mM (range - 13 to - 39 mM), interstitial [K+] increases to 12-13 mM, and plasma [K+] rises to 6-8 mM, whilst post-exercise plasma [K+] falls rapidly, reflecting increased muscle NKA activity. Contractions were shown to increase NKA activity in proportion to activation frequency in animal intact muscle preparations. In human muscle, [3H]-ouabain-binding content fully quantifies NKA content, whilst the method mainly detects α2 isoforms in rats. Acute or chronic exercise affects human muscle K+, NKA content, activity, isoforms and phospholemman (FXYD1). Numerous hormones, pharmacological and dietary interventions, altered acid-base or redox states, exercise training and physical inactivity modulate plasma [K+] during exercise. Finally, historical research approaches largely excluded female participants and typically used very small sample sizes.

Abstract
Rapid oscillations in cytosolic calcium (Ca2+) coordinate muscle contraction, relaxation, and physical movement. Intriguingly, dietary nitrate decreases ATP cost of contraction, increases force production, and increases cytosolic Ca2+, which would seemingly necessitate a greater demand for sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA) to sequester Ca2+ within the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) during relaxation. As SERCA is highly regulated, we aimed to determine the effect of 7-day nitrate supplementation (1 mM via drinking water) on SERCA enzymatic properties and the functional interaction between SERCA and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. In soleus, we report that dietary nitrate increased force production across all stimulation frequencies tested, and throughout a 25 min fatigue protocol. Mice supplemented with nitrate also displayed an ∼25% increase in submaximal SERCA activity and SERCA efficiency (P = 0.053) in the soleus. To examine a possible link between ATP consumption and production, we established a methodology coupling SERCA and mitochondria in permeabilized muscle fibers. The premise of this experiment is that the addition of Ca2+ in the presence of ATP generates ADP from SERCA to support mitochondrial respiration. Similar to submaximal SERCA activity, mitochondrial respiration supported by SERCA-derived ADP was increased by ∼20% following nitrate in red gastrocnemius. This effect was fully attenuated by the SERCA inhibitor cyclopiazonic acid and was not attributed to differences in mitochondrial oxidative capacity, ADP sensitivity, protein content, or reactive oxygen species emission. Overall, these findings suggest that improvements in submaximal SERCA kinetics may contribute to the effects of nitrate on force production during fatigue.NEW & NOTEWORTHY We show that nitrate supplementation increased force production during fatigue and increased submaximal SERCA activity. This was also evident regarding the high-energy phosphate transfer from SERCA to mitochondria, as nitrate increased mitochondrial respiration supported by SERCA-derived ADP. Surprisingly, these observations were only apparent in muscle primarily expressing type I (soleus) but not type II fibers (EDL). These findings suggest that alterations in SERCA properties are a possible mechanism in which nitrate increases force during fatiguing contractions.

Abstract
One of the most important cytosolic Ca2+ buffers present in mouse fast-twitch myofibers, but not in human myofibers, is parvalbumin (PV). Previous work using conventional PV knockout mice suggests that lifelong PV ablation increases fatigue resistance, possibly due to compensations in mitochondrial volume. In this work, PV gene ablation was induced only in adult mice (PV-KO), and contractile and cytosolic Ca2+ responses during fatigue were studied in isolated muscle and intact single myofibers. Results were compared to control littermates (PV-Ctr). We hypothesized that the reduced myofiber cytosolic Ca2+ buffering developed only in adult PV-KO mice leads to a larger cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]c) during repetitive contractions, increasing myofiber fatigue resistance. Extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles from PV-KO mice had higher force in unfused stimulations (~50%, P<0.05) and slowed relaxation (~46% higher relaxation time, P<0.05) vs PV-Ctr, but muscle fatigue resistance or fatigue-induced changes in relaxation were not different between genotypes (P>0.05). In intact single myofibers from flexor digitorum brevis (FDB) muscles, basal and tetanic [Ca2+]c during fatiguing contractions were higher in PV-KO (P<0.05), accompanied by a greater slowing in estimated sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ pumping vs PV-Ctr myofibers (~84% reduction, P<0.05), but myofiber fatigue resistance was not different between genotypes (P>0.05). Our results demonstrate that although the estimated SR Ca2+ uptake was accelerated in PV-KO, the total energy demand by the major energy consumers in myofibers, the cross-bridges and SR Ca2+ ATPase, were not altered enough to affect the energy supply for contractions, and therefore fatigue resistance remained unaffected.

Abstract
Sustained ryanodine receptor (RyR) Ca2+ leak is associated with pathological conditions such as heart failure or skeletal muscle weakness. We report that a single session of sprint interval training (SIT), but not of moderate intensity continuous training (MICT), triggers RyR1 protein oxidation and nitrosylation leading to calstabin1 dissociation in healthy human muscle and in in vitro SIT models (simulated SIT or S-SIT). This is accompanied by decreased sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ content, increased levels of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation proteins, supercomplex formation and enhanced NADH-linked mitochondrial respiratory capacity. Mechanistically, (S-)SIT increases mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake in mouse myotubes and muscle fibres, and decreases pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphorylation in human muscle and mouse myotubes. Countering Ca2+ leak or preventing mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake blunts S-SIT-induced adaptations, a result supported by proteomic analyses. Here we show that triggering acute transient Ca2+ leak through RyR1 in healthy muscle may contribute to the multiple health promoting benefits of exercise.

Abstract
Muscle glycogen is the main substrate during high-intensity exercise and large reductions can occur after relatively short durations. Moreover, muscle glycogen is stored heterogeneously and similarly displays a heterogeneous and fiber-type specific depletion pattern with utilization in both fast- and slow-twitch fibers during high-intensity exercise, with a higher degradation rate in the former. Thus, depletion of individual fast- and slow-twitch fibers has been demonstrated despite muscle glycogen at the whole-muscle level only being moderately lowered. In addition, muscle glycogen is stored in specific subcellular compartments, which have been demonstrated to be important for muscle function and should be considered as well as global muscle glycogen availability. In the present review, we discuss the importance of glycogen metabolism for single and intermittent bouts of high-intensity exercise and outline possible underlying mechanisms for a relationship between muscle glycogen and fatigue during these types of exercise. Traditionally this relationship has been attributed to a decreased ATP resynthesis rate due to inadequate substrate availability at the whole-muscle level, but emerging evidence points to a direct coupling between muscle glycogen and steps in the excitation-contraction coupling including altered muscle excitability and calcium kinetics.

Resting metabolic rate and skeletal muscle SERCA and Na + /K + ATPase activities are not affected by fish oil supplementation in healthy older adults. Physiol Rep 2020; 8:e14408. [PMID: 32342642 PMCID: PMC7186565 DOI: 10.14814/phy2.14408] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2019] [Revised: 02/11/2020] [Accepted: 02/13/2020] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) have unique properties purported to influence several aspects of metabolism, including energy expenditure and protein function. Supplementing with n-3 PUFAs may increase whole-body resting metabolic rate (RMR), by enhancing Na+ /K+ ATPase (NKA) activity and reducing the efficiency of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA) activity by inducing a Ca2+ leak-pump cycle. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of fish oil (FO) on RMR, substrate oxidation, and skeletal muscle SERCA and NKA pump function in healthy older individuals. Subjects (n = 16 females; n = 8 males; 65 ± 1 years) were randomly assigned into groups supplemented with either olive oil (OO) (5 g/day) or FO (5 g/day) containing 2 g/day eicosapentaenoic acid and 1 g/day docosahexaenoic acid for 12 weeks. Participants visited the laboratory for RMR and substrate oxidation measurements after an overnight fast at weeks 0 and 12. Skeletal muscle biopsies were taken during weeks 0 and 12 for analysis of NKA and SERCA function and protein content. There was a main effect of time with decrease in RMR (5%) and fat oxidation (18%) in both the supplementation groups. The kinetic parameters of SERCA and NKA maximal activity, as well as the expression of SR and NKA proteins, were not affected after OO and FO supplementation. In conclusion, these results suggest that FO supplementation is not effective in altering RMR, substrate oxidation, and skeletal muscle SERCA and NKA protein levels and activities, in healthy older men and women.
