It is well-known that onion and garlic of Allium family have been cultivated for major food since ancient times. Especially garlic is known for containing protective materials against cardiovascular disease, neoplasm and cancer, and decreasing cholesterol value. Hemolytic anemia was first reported by Goldsmith in onion-fed cattle in 1909. Subsequently, similar effects have been reported in cattle, horses, sheep, dogs and cats. This toxic effect has been attributed to npropyl disulfide which causes oxidant damage to erythrocyte cell membrane. There are few reports on overconsumption of garlic. Kim et al. reported in 1999 that 45% of Jindo dogs in korea have erythrocytes characterized by high Na-K-ATPase activity with high K and low Na concentrations (HK) which easily results in hemolytic anemia. The purpose of present report is to determine whether garlic-induced hemolytic anemia occurs in normal erythrocytes characterized by complete lack of Na-K-ATPase activity with low K and high Na concentrations (LK) when LK dogs are fed large amounts of garlics. We found in this experiment that Erythrocyte count, PCV and Hemoglobin concentration decreased significantly, and GSH and Met-hemoglobin concentrations increased. Consequently, we determined that overconsumption of garlic induces hemolytic anemia in LK dogs.

The (Na, K) ATPase is a membrane ion transporting ATPase composed of an ${\alpha}$ catalytic subunit and a ${\beta}$ glycoprotein subunit. The topology of the rat ${\alpha}$1 and ${\beta}$1 subunits has been studied by insertion of epitope(s) : at the NH2-terminus and COOH-terminus and between Glu117 and Glul18, Lys828 and Arg829, Gln900 and Trp901, and Va1939 and Phe940 of the ${\alpha}$ subunit; and at the NH2-terminus and COOH-terminus and between Glu228 and Tyr229 of the ${\beta}$ subunit. The epitope-tagged ${\alpha}$l, constructs were expressed in HeLa cells to select for stable cell lines expressing a functional (Na, K)ATPase. All constructs, except for the one tagged between Gln900 and Trp901, resulted in ouabain-resistant colonies indicating that modified proteins retained functional integrity. The epitope-tagged ${\beta}$ constructs were transiently expressed in Cos-7 cells. The orientation of the epitopes with respect to the cell membrane was revealed by indirect immunofluorescence performed on permeabilized and non-permeabilized cells expressing the (Na, K)ATPase chains. The results indicate that the ${\alpha}$ subunit has 4 transmembrane segments in the COOH terminal membrane bound domain between residues 760 and 938, and that both the NH2-terminus and the COOH-terminus are in the cytosol; it was not determined whether there are more transmembrane segments between residue 938 and the COOH-terminus. The ${\beta}$ subunit has only one transmembrane spanning region with the NH2-terminus in the cytosol and the COOH-terminus on the extracytoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane.

Vanadate의 회장 평활근에 대한 수축작용이 Na-K-ATPase를 억제하기 때문인지를 구명하기 위하여 Na-K-ATPase를 억제하는 ouabain과의 작용의 차이를 관찰한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1) Ouabain에 의해 나타나는 수축은 2중 peak를 나타내었으나 vanadate 의해서는 단일 Peak만을 보였다. 2) Ouabain에 의한 수축은 atropine$(2{\times]10^{-6}M)$에 의해 강력하게 억제되었으나 vanadate의 작용은 영향을 받지 않았다. 3) Ouabain에 의한 수축은 vanadate에 비해 외부의 $Ca^{++}4농도 및 Ca-길항제에 대해 민감하게 영향을 받았다. 4) 용액내 $Na^+$이 없을때 혹은 고농도의 $K^+$존재하에서 ouabain에 의한 수축반응은 거의 나타나지 않았으나 vanadate에 의한 수축은 영향을 받지 않았다. 5) Vanadate에 의한 수축은 ouabain 존재시에 더욱 증가되었다. 6) 3시간동안 incubation한 결과 vanadate는 ouabain과 달리 세포내 $Na^+$의 농도에 영향을 미치지 못하였다. 이상의 결과로 보아 ouabain과 vanadate는 서로 다른 기전에 의해 회장 평활근에서 수축반응을 유발시키는 것으로 추측된다.

Production of free radicals of superoxide anion in tissues by cadmium, activities of superoxide dismutase and catalase to protect tissue damages caused by the free radicals and ATPase that plays an important role in energy metabolism at cellular level were investigated. Experiments in vivo were conducted with liver, kidney and testicle tissue homogenates of rats adding $0.05{\sim}0.50mM$ cadmium chloride, and in vivo experiments administering single dose of 5 mg of cadmium/kg of body weight in 0.1% cadmium chloride solution intraperitoneally 48 hours prior to evisceration. Production of superoxide radicals in liver and testicle increased with addition of cadmium in vitro, but not in kidney. In vivo experiments, however, superoxide radicals slightly increased in liver and kidney but not in testicle. Superoxide dismutase (Cu, Zn-SOD and Mn-SOD), catalase and ATPase (total, $Mg^{++}-\;&\;Na^+,\;K^+-$) activity decreased in the presence of cadimium in dose dependent manner. Reduction of these enzyme activities varied not only with dosage of cadmium but also with type of tissue and between in vitro and in vivo experiment.

We investigated the branchial osmoregulatory response of black sea bream Acanthopagrus schlegelii to short-term (3-48 h) exposure to a hyposaline environment (5 psu). Gill $Na^+/K^+$-ATPase (NKA) activity was decreased after 3 h in fish transferred to 5 psu compared to salt water-acclimated (control) fish, but the level of activity returned to that observed in the control fish at 6 h after transfer. NKA activity increased significantly at 24 h after transfer, but it returned to the level observed in the control fish at 48 h after transfer. Immunohistochemical staining revealed that gill NKA was localized to chloride cells. The number of chloride cells tended to change in parallel with NKA activity. Substantial decreases in plasma $Na^+$, $Cl^-$, and osmolality were observed after 12 h of exposure to 5 psu; however, these parameters began to recover to the values detected in the controls at 24 h after transfer. In conclusion, our results suggest that black sea bream are able to adjust their osmoregulatory mechanisms to shift from hypo- to hyperosmoregulation within 6 h of exposure to a hypoosmotic environment.

Four known cardiotonic steroids were isolated from roots of Adonis amurensis Regel et Radde and identified as digitoxigenin, cymarin, K-strophanthin and convallatoxin by chromatography on Amberlite XAD-2 resin and silica gel, high performance liquid chromatography and gel chromatography on Sephadex LH-20. In order to clarify the structure-activity relationship, thirteen related compounds of digitoxigenin were tested for the inhibitory activities for $Na^+,\;K^+$-adenosine triphosphatase from guinea pig heart. The inhibitory activities of related compounds of digitoxigenin were dependent upon the dicarboxylic acid and amino acid components. The compound having both the arginine and suberic acid moiety showed the higher inhibitory activity. The sulfate and glucuronide of digitoxigenin exhibited much less potency than the parent genin.

The effects of taurine on plasma and liver cholesterol, erythrocyte ouabain sensitive Na efflux and platelet aggregation were examined in Sprague Dawley rats fed control or 0.5% cholesterol with 0.2% cholate diet. Plasma and liver levels of total cholesterol were increased significantly (p<0.05) in rats fed cholesterol diet compared to the control, and taurine significantly decreased the elevated plasma level of cholesterol in rats fed cholesterol diet (p<0.05). HDL-cholesterol was decreased in groups fed the cholesterol diet regardless of taurine supplementation and the difference between groups with and without cholesterol was significant (p<0.01). Plasma triglyceride was decreased and liver triglyceride was increased both significantly (p<0.05) in rats fed cholesterol compared to the control. Plasma and liver triglyceride in rats fed taurine was decreased significantly compared to the control (p<0.05). Intracellular Na tended to be lower in rats fed cholesterol or taurine and higher in rats fed cholesterol plus taurine compared to the control. Na efflux through Na-K ATPase and the passive leak of Na was somewhat reduced in rats fed cholesterol or taurine and was augmented in rats fed cholesterol plus taurine compared to the control, which showed a similar trend to the intracellular Na. Taurine supplementation caused a suppression of Na efflux in groups fed control diet and restored the suppressed Na efflux in groups fed cholesterol. Platelet aggregation was significantly decreased in the group fed taurine compared to the control (p<0.05) and the group fed cholesterol plus taurine was also a little lower in aggregation than the group fed cholesterol. Microscopic examination showed that taurine prevented fatty liver in rats fed cholesterol diet. Taurine known for stimulating Na-K ATPase in some cell types rather decreased erythrocyte ouabain sensitive Na-K ATPase in the present study. Taurine had hypolipidemic and hypocholesterolemic effects and inhibited platelet aggregation which may be favorable for prevention of cardiovascular diseases.
