Quinacrine은 수소이온 농도변화에 민감한 형광 probe로서 양성자와 결합하지 않은 형광형이나, 양성자와 결합한 비형광형으로 존재한다. 따라서, quinacrine은 $H^+-ATPase$에 의한 수소이온이동 활성 측정에 이용된다. 본 연구에서는 토마조 뿌리조직에서 분리한 마이크로솜에서 quinacrine의 형광성을 이용한 $H^+-ATPase$ 활성측정의 최적 조건을 조사하였다. Quinacrine의 형광변화는 반응용액 중의 단백질 함량이 $0.43{\mu}g/{\mu}l$에서25-26% 감소하여 10%의 quinacrine 형광을 감소시키는 데 약 100nmo1/min의 $H^+-ATPase$ 활성이 필요함을 알 수 있었다. Quinacrine의 최대 형광변화는 pH 7.0-7.2 범위와 $2mM\;Mg^{2+}$ 조건에서 일어났다. 이것은 기존에 보고한 $H^+-ATPase$의 특성과 일치하여, quinacrine의 형광변화가 $H^+-ATPase$의 활성을 잘 반영하고 있음을 보인다. 원형질막 및 액포막 $H^+-ATPase$들의 선택적 저해제인 vanadate와 $NO_3-$는 각각의 효소에 의한 수소이온이동 활성을 저해하는데 성공적임을 확인하였다. 이상의 결과로 quinacrine이 토마토 뿌리조직에서 분리한 마이크로솜의 수소이온이동 활성측정에 유용하게 이용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

$Na^+,K^+$-ATPase activity, $Na^+$-dependent phosphorylation, and $[^3H]$ ouabain binding in sarcolemma prepared from 4 week old spontaneously hypertensive rat(SHR) ventricles were compared to the same parameters in sarcolemma from age matched nomotensive Wister-Kyoto (WKY) rat ventricles to examine whether the reduced myocardial $Na^+$-pump activity in SHR is an inherited enzymatic defect or a second phenomenon due to sustained hypertension. The total body weights, ventricular weights, and blood pressures were the same for SHR and WKY. No significant differences in sarcolemmal protein content and protein recovery were noted between the two groups. Sarcolemma isolated from SHR ventricles showed significantly less $Na^+,K^+$-ATPase activity ande number of phosphorylation sites when compared to sarcolemma from the WKY ventricles. Equilibrium binding of $[^3H]$ouabain and the tumover number of myocardial $Na^+,K^+$-ATPase, however, were the same for both groups. These reults indicate that the low affinity $(\alpha,\;or\;\alpha^1)\;\alpha$ isoform is the same in ventricles of SHR and WKY. The reduced amount of isoform of the $Na^+,K^+$-ATPase inprehypetensive SHR ventricles may play some role in the development of hypertension.

염류장애에 의한 작물의 생육저해 원인을 밝혀내기 위하여 상추를 대조양액과 대조양액에 30 mM 및 50 mM $KNO_3$를 첨가하여 염류농도를 높인 양액 등 3가지 조건에서 재배하였으며, 이때 이들 양액의 EC는 각각 1.0, 4.5, 6.5 dS/m 이었다. 뿌리세포의 원형질막 및 액포막에 위치한 $H^+$-ATPase 활성은 각각에 특이적 저해제인 vanadate와 $NO_3^-$를 이용하여 측정하였다. 대조양액에서 재배한 상추 뿌리의 ATPase 활성은 $356\pm1.5$ nmol/min/mg protein이었으며, 30 mM과 50 mM $KNO_3$를 첨가한 양액에서는 활성이 대조활성에 비하여 각각 1.6배, 1.9배 증가하였다. 이것은 상추가 염류장애시 뿌리조직의 ATPase 활성증가를 통하여 적응함을 보여주는 것이며, 활성증가는 주로 액포막 $H^+$-ATPase 활성증가에 의해 이루어짐을 확인하였다. 마이크로솜 ATPase 활성에 미치는 여러 가지 중금속 이온들의 효과를 측정하였으며, 중금속 이온은 100 ${\mu}M$ 농도에서 콩류에 따라 활성을 10$\sim$25% 저해하였다. 특히, $Cu^{2+}$는 주로 액포막 $H^+$-ATPase 활성을 저해함을 확인하였다. 본 연구의 결과로부터 상추는 염류집적 환경에서 뿌리의 ATPase 활성, 특히 액포막에 위치한 $H^+$-ATPase 활성을 증가시켜 적응하며, $Cu^{2+}$는 주로 액포막 $H^+$-ATPase 활성을 저해하는 성분으로 뿌리의 ATPase 활성변화 연구에 유용하게 이용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The production and cation flux-mediated activation of the P-type ATPase in Helicobacter pylori was investigated. Using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), the proton pump genotype of H. pylori was found to be positive for both F-type and P-type ATPases. Yet, their production in terms of enzyme specific activity varied substantially depending on H. pylori strains, ranging over 3-fold. Its main constituent appeared to be the P-type ATPase pool, in contrast to other common bacterial compositions. Interestingly, the F-type ATPase was observed only when intact H. pyloricells were exposed to pH 4.5 or above (37$^{\circ}C$ for 1 h). In contrast, significant amounts of the P-type ATPase still remained after 1 h of cell treatment even at pH below 4.5. By enriching the acidic medium with RPMI(pH 3.0), the P-type ATPase was stabilized, accompained by inactivation of the F-type ATPase. Using H. pylori membrane vesicles, it was found that ammionia-mediated cation flux increased the rate of ATP hydrolysis by the P-type ATPase. Accordingly, these data strongly suggest that the P-type ATPase is involved or functions as an effective regulator for the cation flux across the H. pylori membrane, thereby reducing the risk of excess proton influx.

콩 뿌리조직의 이온 흡수와 관련된 생리활성을 조사하기 위하여 뿌리조직으로부터 마이크로솜을 분리하였고, 마이크로솜 ATPase (이온점프) 활성을 분광학적 방법인 enzyme-coupled 분석방법에 따라 측정하였다. 마이크로솜 ATPase의 활성에 미치는 여러 가지 이온의 효과 또는 ATPase의 이온선택성을 조사하기 위하여 $10mM\;Na^+$과 $120mM\;K^+$을 포함하는 대조용액에서의 평균활성을 측정한 결과 190 nmol/min/mg protein으로 나타났다. 대조활성에 비하여 $Na^+$을 포함하지 않은 $130mM\;K^+$ 용액에서는 활성이 150%로 증가하였고, $K^+$을 포함하지 않은 $130mM\;Na^+$ 용액에서는 활성이 63%로 감소되었다. 반응용액의 $K^+$ 농도에 따른 활성변화를 측정한 결과, ATPase의 활성은 외부용액의 $K^+$ 농도 증가에 따라 활성이 증가됨을 알 수 있었다. 또한 마이크로솜 ATPase 활성은 반응용액의 pH 감소에 따라 증가되어 $pH\;6{\sim}7$에서는 비교적 높은 활성을 보였으나, pH 8 이상에서는 급격히 활성이 감소되었고, pH 9에서는 80%이상의 활성이 저해되었다. $Ca^{2+}$에 의한 이온펌프의 활성조절 여부를 평가하기 위해서 마이크로솜 내부 및 외부의 $Ca^{2+}$에 의한 ATPase 활성변화를 측정하였다. 마이크로솜 ATPase의 활성은 반응액의 $Ca^{2+}$ 농도가 낮아질수록 증가하여 $10^{-9}M$ 이하에서 최대활성이 관측되었고, $Ca^{2+}$ 농도가 증가할수록 활성은 감소하여 $500\;{\mu}M$ 전후에서 50%의 활성이 감소하였다. 또한 ATPase의 활성은 마이크로솜 내부의 $Ca^{2+}$ 농도증가에 의해서 저해되어, $Ca^{2+}\;ionophore\;A23187$처리에 의한 외부의 $Ca^{2+}$ 유입에 의해서 약30%의 활성감소를 보였으며, EGTA 처리에 의한 $Ca^{2+}\;chelation$에 의해서 마이크로솜 내부의 $Ca^{2+}$ 농도가 감소되었을 때, ATPase 활성은 증가하였다. 위의 조건에서 실제 마이크로솜 내부로의 $Ca^{2+}$ 유입 여부는 $‘Ca^{2+}’$를 이용하여 확인하였다. 이상의 결과는 마이크로솜 막에 위치한 ATPase의 내부 및 외부에 $Ca^{2+}$에 의한 효소활성 조절부위가 각각존재함을 시사한다.

Astrocytes are reported to have critical functions in ischemic brain injury including protective effects against ischemia-induced neuronal dysfunction. Na-K ATPase maintains ionic gradients in astrocytes and is suggested as an indicator of ischemic injury in glial cells. Here, we examined the role of the Na-K ATPase in the pathologic process of ischemic injury of primary cultured astrocytes. Chemical ischemia was induced by sodium azide and glucose deprivation. Lactate dehydrogenase assays showed that the cytotoxic effect of chemical ischemia on astrocytes began to appear at 2 h of ischemia. The expression of Na-K ATPase ${\alpha}1$ subunit protein was increased at 2 h of chemical ischemia and was decreased at 6 h of ischemia, whereas the expression of ${\alpha}1$ subunit mRNA was not changed by chemical ischemia. Na-K ATPase activity was time-dependently decreased at 1, 3, and 6 h of chemical ischemia, whereas the enzyme activity was temporarily recovered to the control value at 2 h of chemical ischemia. Cytotoxicity at 2 h of chemical ischemia was significantly blocked by reoxygenation for 24 h following ischemia. Reoxygenation following chemical ischemia for 1 h significantly increased the activity of the Na-K ATPase, while reoxygenation following ischemia for 2 h slightly decreased the enzyme activity. These results suggest that the critical time for ischemia-induced cytotoxicity of astrocytes might be 2 h after the initiation of ischemic insult and that the increase in the expression and activity of the Na-K ATPase might play a protective role during ischemic injury of astrocytes.

The effects of various synthetic benzimidazole derivatives on gastric H^+/K^+$ATPase activity in vitro were examined. The results showed that the effects of substituents on the benzimidazole ring were not significant. However, replacement of sulfoxide connecting two ring systems to sulfide resulted in a completely inactive compound in vitro, suggesting the essential role of sulfoxide group in the inhibition. In addition, compounds with 5 or 6-membered oxacyclic substituents attached to the pyridine ring displayed the most effective inhibitory activity. Among these derivatives, AU-47 was the most potent, and detailed mechanistic studies with the compound were carried out. AU-47 inhibited gastricH^+/K^+$ATPase in a concentration and time dependent manner with 50% inhibition at $6\muM$. The presence of sulfhydryl reducing agents or substrate analogue protected H^+/K^+$ATPase from the inactivation. The inhibition by AU-47 was potentiated by acid pretreatment of the compound, suggesting the structural conversion of AU-47 into a more active intermediate which was favored in acidic condition. Consistent with in vitro results, AU-47 inhibited in vivo gastric acid secretion. The results suggest that AU47 is a relevant candidate for the development of new antiulcer agent.
