title: Externalization and internalization of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase in rat heart during different phases of sepsis.
abstract: Changes in the distribution of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase in two subcellular fractions, the sarcolemma and the light vesicle, of rat heart during sepsis were studied. Sepsis was induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). The alpha-subunit of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase was photoaffinity labeled with [alpha-32P]8-N3ATP. The results show that septic rat heart exhibits hyperdynamic (hypermetabolic) phase during early (9 hr post-CLP), followed by hypodynamic (hypometabolic) phase during late (18 hr post-CLP) sepsis. Marker enzyme and beta-adrenergic receptor assays depict that the light vesicle fraction is the intracellular site of surface receptor. The incorporation of the photolabel into the alpha-subunit (M(r) = 98,000) of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase in sarcolemmal fraction was increased by 60% (P < 0.01) during early sepsis, but was decreased by 63% (P < 0.01) during late sepsis. In contrast, the binding of 98,000-M(r) peptide in light vesicles was decreased by 40% (P < 0.01) in early sepsis, but was increased by 102% (P < 0.01) during late sepsis. The ouabain-sensitive (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity was increased by 31% (P < 0.05) during the early sepsis, but was decreased by 32% (P < 0.01) during late sepsis in the sarcolemmal fraction; while in the light vesicle fraction, the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity was decreased by 21% (P < 0.01) during early sepsis, but was increased by 47% (P < 0.01) during the late phase of sepsis. The yield of membrane proteins for each specific fraction remained unchanged for control, early sepsis, and late sepsis.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
