title: Inhibition of H(+)-transporting ATPase, Ca(2+)-transporting ATPase and H+/K(+)-transporting ATPase by strophanthidin.
abstract: Studies of the effect of strophanthidin on H(+)-transporting ATPase, Ca(2+)-transporting ATPase and H+/K(+)-transporting ATPase activities are reported. Inhibition observations and kinetic results suggest the existence of a common digitalis aglycone binding site located on the extracellular surface of the enzyme, which is affected competitively by the binding of potassium to H(+)-transporting ATPase, Ca(2+)-transporting ATPase, as well as H+/K(+)-transporting ATPase and Na+/K(+)-transporting ATPase. This may lead to a better understanding of the mechanism of the pharmacological action of cardiac glycosides and imply the possibility that the positive inotropic effect may result from the inhibition of both Ca(2+)-transporting ATPase and Na+/K(+)-transporting ATPase.
