  • 신장 근위세뇨관세포들은 사구체에서 여과된 물질의 재흡수, 분비 및 대사에 관여하는 여러 호르몬들의 수용체들을 가지고 있다. 이들중에서 norepinephrine(NE)과 angiotensin II(ANG II)는 $Na^{+}/H^+$ 상호운반계를 조절함으로써 혈압조절에 관여하는 것으로 알려져 있으나 이들의 상호관계에 대해선 연구보고가 많지 않다. 본 연구는 초대배양한 토끼신장 근위세뇨관세포를 이용한 $Na^+$ uptake 실험을 통하여 NE이 어떠한 수용체를 통하여 $Na^{+}/H^+$ 상호운반계를 조절하는지 그리고 이러한 작용에 있어서 NE과 ANG II의 상호관계를 알아보고자 실시하였다. NE(>$10^{-9}M$)은 $Na^+$ uptake를 유의성 있게 증가시켰다($10^{-9}M$ NE : $27{\pm}4%$ increase vs. Control;p < 0.05). $\alpha$ 길항제(phentolamine, $10^{-10}M$)는 NE($10^{-9}M$)에 의해 유도된 $Na^+$ uptake를 유의성 있게 차단하였으나 (phentolamine+NE : $29{\pm}5%$ inhibition vs. NE ; p〈 0.05), ${\alpha}_1$ (pra-zosin, $10^{-10}M$) 및 ${\alpha}_2$ 길항제(yohimbine, $10^{-10}M$)는 부분적으로 차단하였다. ${\beta}$ 길항제(propra-nolol, $10^{-10}M$)도 역시 NE에 의해 유도된 $Na^+$ uptake를 유의성 있게 차단하였으나(propranolol+NE : $24{\pm}6%$ inhibition vs. NE ; p< 0.05), ${\beta}_1$(atenolol, $10^{-10}M$) 및 ${\beta}_2$ 길항제(butoxamine, $10^{-10}M$)는 부분적으로 차단하였다. 이러한 결과들은 NE에 의해 유도된 $Na^+$ uptake 증가작용은 ${\alpha}$(${\alpha}_1$${\alpha}_2$ )와 ${\beta}$(${\beta}_1$${\beta}_2$) 수용체 모두를 통하여 일어난다는 것을 시사해주고 있다. ANG II($10^{-11}M$) 또는 NE(${\alpha}_1$, ${\alpha}_2$, ${\beta}_1$, ${\beta}_2$ 작동제) 단독처리군의 $Na^+$ uptake는 대조군에 비해 유의성 있게 증가하였으나 (ANG II : $23{\pm}9%$ increase vs. Control; p < 0.05), 병합처리시 상승작용은 나타나지 않았다. ${\alpha}$ 또는 ${\beta}$ 길항제 처리시 NE 및 ANG II에 의해 유도되었던 $Na^+$ uptake 증가는 유의성 있게 차단되었다(phentolamine+NE+ANG II : $25{\pm}3%$ inhibition, propranolol+NE+ANG II : $24{\pm}6%$ inhibition vs. NE+ANG II, respectively ; p〈 0.05). 이 결과들은 $Na^+$ uptake에 있어서 ${\alpha}$(${\alpha}_1$${\alpha}_2$)와 ${\beta}$(${\beta}_1$${\beta}_2$) 수용체와 ANG II의 관련성을 시사해 준다. 결론적으로 토끼 신장 근위세뇨관세포에서 NE은 ${\alpha}_1$, ${\alpha}_2$, ${\beta}_1$${\beta}_2$ 수용체를 통하여 $Na^+$+ uptake를 증가시켰으며 이들 수용체는 ANG II $Na^+$ uptake 증가작용에 관여하였다.

  • The effects of ${\alpha}_1-adrenergic$ receptor stimulation on membrane potential, intracellular $Na^+$ activity, and twitch force were investigated in ventricular muscles from guinea-pig hearts. Action potentials, intracellular $Na^+$ activity, and twitch force of ventricular papillary muscles were measured simultaneously under various experimental conditions. Stimulation of the ${\alpha}_1-adrenergic$ receptor by phenylephrine produced variable changes in action potential duration, a slight hyperpolarization of the diastolic membrane potential, a decrease in intracellular $Na^+$ activity, and a biphasic inotropic response in which a transient negative inotropic response was followed by a sustained positive inotropic response. These changes were blocked by prazosin, an antagonist of the ${\alpha}_1-adrenergic$ receptor, but not by atenolol, an antagonist of the ${\beta}-adrenergic$ receptor. This indicates that the changes in membrane potential, intracellular $Na^+$ activity, and twitch force are mediated by stimulation of the ${\alpha}_1-adrenergic$ receptor, but not by stimulation of ${\beta}-adrenergic$ receptor. The decrease in intracellular $Na^+$ activity was not observed in quiescent muscles, depending on the rate of the action pontentials in beating muscles. The intracellular $Na^+$ activity decrease was substantially inhibited by tetrodotoxin. However, the decrease in intracellular $Na^+$ activity was not affected by an inhibition of the $Na^+-K^+$ pump. Therefore, the decrease in intracellular $Na^+$ activity mediated by the ${\alpha}_1-adrenergic$ receptor appears to be due to a reduction of $Na^+$ influx during the action potential, perhaps through tetrodotoxin sensitive $Na^+$ channels. Our study also revealed that the decrease in intracellular $Na^+$ activity might be related to the transient negative inotropic response. The intracellular $Na^+$ activity decrease could lower intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ through the $Na^+-Ca^{2+}$ exchanger and thereby produce a decline in twitch force.

  • Myocardial ${\alpha}_1-adrenoceptors$ have been shown to mediate a biphaslc inotropic response that was characterized by a transient decline followed by a sustained increasing phase in guinea pig ventricular muscle. Recently one group reported that an ${\alpha}_1-adrenoceptors-induced$ intracellular $Na^+$ decrease is linked to fast $Na^+$ channel inhibition and another group reported that it is linked to $Na^+$-$K^+$ pump activation by ${\alpha}_{1b}-adrenoceptors$. But until now, its mechanism is not clear. Therefore, to see whether the $Na^+$channel or $Na^+-K^+$ pump is related to a decrease in intracellular $Na^+$ activity and/or the negative inotropic response, and which ${\alpha}_1-adrenoceptor$ subtype was involved in the decrease in intracellular $Na^+$activity by phenylephrine, we used conventional and sodium selective microelectrodes, and tension transducer to determine the effects of ${\alpha}_1-adrenergic$ stimulation on membrane potential, intracellular $Na^+$ activity, and twitch force in guinea pig ventricular muscles. $10^{-5}$ M Phenylephrine produced a slight hyperpolarization of the diastolic membrane potential, a decrease or increase in $a_N^i_a$, and a biphasic inotropic response. The negative inotropic response accompanied by a decrease in intracellular $Na^+$activity, whereas in muscles showing a remarkable positive inotropic response without initial negative inotropic effect was accompanied by an increase in intracellular $Na^+$ activity. The decrease in intracellular $Na^+$ activity was apparently inhibited by WB4101, an antagonist of the ${\alpha}_{1a}-adrenoceptors$. The decrease in intracellular $Na^+$ activity caused by phenylephrine was not abolished or reduced by a block of the fast $Na^+$ channels. $V_{max}$ also was not affected by phenylephrine. Phenylephrine produced an increase in intracellular $Na^+$ activity in the presence of a high concentration of extracellular $Ca^{2+}$ (in quiescent muscle) or phorbol dibutyrate, a protein kinase C activator(in beating muscle). These suggest that the ${\alpha}_{1a}-adrenoceptors-mediated$ decrease in intracellular $Na^+$ activity may be related to the protein kinase C.

  • The effect of ${\alpha}_1$-adrenoceptor(${\alpha}_1$-AR) stimulation on intracellular pH($pH_i$), $Na^+$ activity($a_{Na}{^i}$) and contractility were investigated in isolated papillary muscles of euthyroid or hyperthyroid guinea pig with conventional microelectrode, $Na^+$ or $H^+$-selective microelectrodes, and tension transducer. Stimulation of the ${\alpha}_1$-AR by phenylephrine produced a decrease in $a_{Na}{^i}$ in euthyroid preparations. This decrease in $a_{Na}{^i}$ was abolished in presence of PKC activator, phorbol dibutyrate, and increased contrary to decrease. Phenylephrine also increased $a_{Na}{^i}$ in hyperthyroid ones. However, phenylrephtine produced an increase in $pH_i$ in both euthyroid and hyperthyroid ones. These changes were blocked by prazosin, an antagonist of ${\alpha}_1$-AR. These findings suggest that the changes in $a_{Na}{^i}$ and $pH_i$ are mediated by a stimulation of $Na^+-H^+$ exchange via ${\alpha}_1$-AR stimulation. This study focused on the increase in $a_{Na}{^i}$, $pH_i$ and contractility. The increase in $pH_i$ was blocked by amiloride or EIPA, $Na^+-H^+$ exchange inhibitors. Therefore, the increase in $a_{Na}{^i}$ and $pH_i$ mediated by ${\alpha}_1$-AR appeared to be due to an influx of $Na^+$ and a reduction of $H^+$ through $Na^+-H^+$ exchange. This study also revealed that the increase in $pH_i$ and $a_{Na}{^i}$ might be related to the sustained positive inotropic response. The $a_{Na}{^i}$ increase may contribute to the intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ through the $Na^+-Ca^{2+}$ exchange, and the $pH_i$ increase could cause an increase in the $Ca^{2+}$ sensitivity of myofilaments and may augment the ${\alpha}_1$-AR-mediated positive inotropic response.

  • Hydration scheme and hydration energy are determined in ${\alpha}$ cage of zeolite NaA. The selectivity between Na(1) and Na(2) is determined from energy calculation. The waters in ${\alpha}$ cage form a distorted dodecahedral cage. The average binding energies of water(1), water(2) and water(3) are -29.847, -25.344 and -15.888 kcal/mole respectively. The positions of oxygens of hydrated waters are in good agreement with the X-ray data. The heat of immersion curve is also obtained. This result is in good agreement with the differential heat of sorption curve obtained from differential thermal analysis. It is concluded that theoretical method provides considerable uses in the determination and understanding of the hydration and interaction energy of zeolites sorbate binding.

  • The roles of ${\beta}-adrenoceptor$ were well known in hyperthyroidal heart, but not with ${\alpha}-adrenoceptor$. So we studied the effects of phenylephrine on membrane potential, intracellular sodium activity ($a^{i}_{Na}$), twitch force, and intracellular pH ($pH_i$) by continuous intracellular recordings with ion-selective and conventional microelectrodes in the papillary muscles of hyperthyroid guinea pig heart. ${\alpha}_1-adrenoceptor$ stimulation by phenylephrine (10^{-5}\;or\;3{\times}10^{-5}M$) produced the following changes: variable changes in action potential duration, a hyperpolarization ($1.5{\pm}0.1mM$) of the diastolic membrane potential, an increase in $a^{i}_{Na}\;(0.4{\pm}0.15mM)$, a stronger positive inotropic effect ($220{\pm}15%$), an increase in $pH_i\;(0.06{\pm}0.002\;unit)$. These changes were flocked by prazosin and atenolol. This indicated that the changes in membrane potential, $a^{i}_{Na}$ twitch force, and $pH_i$ are mediated by a stimulation of the ${\alpha}_1-adrenoceptor$. Ethylisopropylamiloride ($10^{-5}$) also blocked the increase in $a^{i}_{Na}$ and twitch force. On the other hand, strophanthidin, tetrodotoxin, $Cs^+$ or verapamil did not block the increase in $a^{i}_{Na}$ and twitch force. Thus, it was suggested that ${\alpha}_1-adrenoceptor$ stimulation increased $a^{i}_{Na}\;and\;pH_i$ by stimulation of $Na^{+}-H^{+}$ exchange, thereby allowing intracellular alkalinization and $a^{i}_{Na}$ increase. These results were very different from euthyroidal heart which showed ${\alpha}_1-adrenoceptor$-induced decrease in $a^{i}_{Na}$ and initial negative inotropic effect. From the above results, it was concluded that ${\alpha}_1-adrenoceptor$ had a important role in hyperthy-roidal heart.

  • Purification and biochemical experiments on the carboxylesterases-III (CE-III) from the indian meal moth, Plodia interpunctella (Hubner) were carried out to understand their enzymemological characteristics. The CE-III from the fifth instar larvae was purified by means of ammonium sulfate fractionation, gel permeation choromatography and ion exchange choromatography. The optimal temperature for the reaction of the CE-III on the 4 substrates ($\alpha$-Na, $\alpha$-Nb, $\beta$-Na and $\beta$-Nb) was confirmed at 4$0^{\circ}C$. The optimal pH for the reactions on the substrates $\alpha$-Na and $\alpha$-Nb was 7.5. But the optimal pH on the substrate $\beta$-Na and $\beta$-Nb was 8.0. The optimal substrate concentration for the reactions of the CE-III was 3.16 X 10$^{-3}$ M in $\alpha$-Na and $\beta$-Nb. On the substrate $\beta$-Na and $\alpha$-Nb, the optimal substrate concentration was 1.0 X 10$^{-3}$ M for CE-III. The $V_{max}$ and $K_{m}$ values of the carboxylesterases were varied by the substrates as followings: the $V_{max}$ of CE-III was 45.9 for $\alpha$-Na, 52.6 for $\beta$-Na, 36.4 for $\alpha$-Nb, and 83.3 ($\mu$ mol/min/mg protein) for $\beta$-Nb. The $K_{m}$ of CE-III was 1.43 X 10$^{-4}$ M for $\alpha$-Na, 3.57 x 10$^{-5}$ M for $\beta$-Na, 9.17 X 10$^{-5}$ M for $\alpha$-Nb, and 7.14 X 10$^{-5}$ M for $\beta$ -Nb, respectively. The CE-III seemed to have somewhat high thermostability considering that the temperature for effective denaturation on activity was about 5$0^{\circ}C$ ~ 6$0^{\circ}C$.EX>.EX>.

  • This study was investigated to the reaction of alumina sintering with alkaline. The soluble $NaAlO_2$ was made after the commercial ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ was calcinated with NaOH. The reaction of alumina was carried out to be based on the effects of calcination temperature, time, and the mixing ratio of ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3/NaOH$. The alumina was calcined over $500^{\circ}C$ with NaOH powder after it was sieved with 170/270 mesh. The calcined alumina with NaOH powder was dissolved into $25^{\circ}C$ distilled water and filtrated, and HCI was added to adapt pH 6.5~7.5. The residue was separated with vacuum pump for filtration after it was adapted to proper pH, and aluminum compound was precipitated with $Al(OH)_3$. The investigation was carried out with the variables; the calcination temperature($500-900^{\circ}C$), the calcination time (30~90 min), and the concentration of HCI when leaching(0.5~3.0N) respectively. In this investigation, the main product of ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ and NaOH was $NaAlO_2$ and the maximum conversion ratio was 91.4% under the optimum conditions as followed ; the ratio of NaOH/${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ was 1.5 and the calcination conditions were $800^{\circ}C$ and 90 min.

  • Si, NH$_4$Cl, NaN$_3$, NaCl, $N_2$ were used as raw materials for preparation of $\alpha$-Si$_3$N$_4$ powder. NH$_4$Cl and NaN$_3$ were used as additives, and NaCl was used as a diluent. Initial $N_2$ gas pressure in the SHS reactor was 60 atm. In preparation of $\alpha$-Si$_3$N$_4$, the reactivity and the properties of the products were examined with the various kinds of additives and the content of diluent. At first, the optimum reaction system for the preparation of $\alpha$-Si$_3$N$_4$ is examined and then the optimum composition was examined in the optimum reaction system. The optimum reaction system was Si-$N_2$-additive(NH$_4$Cl+NaN$_3$)-diluent(NaCl) and the optimum composition was 38 wt%Si+50 wt%(NH$_4$Cl+NaN$_3$)+12 wt%NaCl. The maximum fraction of $\alpha$-phase of Si$_3$N$_4$ produced in this condition was 96.5 wt% and the shape of the $\alpha$-Si$_3$N$_4$ produced in this condition was an irregular fiber with a length of 10 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and a diameter of 1 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$.

  • It has been demonstrated that vanadate causes nephrotoxicity. Vanadate inhibits renal sodium potassium adenosine triphosphatase (Na, K-ATPase) activity and this is more pronounced in injured renal tissues. Cardiac cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is enhanced by vanadate, while increased cAMP suppresses Na, K-ATPase action in renal tubular cells. There are no in vivo data collectively demonstrating the effect of vanadate on renal cAMP levels; on the abundance of the alpha 1 isoform (${\alpha}_1$) of the Na, K-ATPase protein or its cellular localization; or on renal tissue injury. In this study, rats received a normal saline solution or vanadate (5 mg/kg BW) by intraperitoneal injection for 10 days. Levels of vanadium, cAMP, and malondialdehyde (MDA), a marker of lipid peroxidation were measured in renal tissues. Protein abundance and the localization of renal ${\alpha}_1-Na$, K-ATPase was determined by Western blot and immunohistochemistry, respectively. Renal tissue injury was examined by histological evaluation and renal function was assessed by blood biochemical parameters. Rats treated with vanadate had markedly increased vanadium levels in their plasma, urine, and renal tissues. Vanadate significantly induced renal cAMP and MDA accumulation, whereas the protein level of ${\alpha}_1-Na$, K-ATPase was suppressed. Vanadate caused renal damage, azotemia, hypokalemia, and hypophosphatemia. Fractional excretions of all studied electrolytes were increased with vanadate administration. These in vivo findings demonstrate that vanadate might suppress renal ${\alpha}_1-Na$, K-ATPase protein functionally by enhancing cAMP and structurally by augmenting lipid peroxidation.
