title: [Effect of polyamines on Mg(2+)-dependent ATP-hydrolase activity in plasmatic membrane of myometrium cells].
abstract: Influence of aliphatic polyamines of spermine and spermidine on the enzymatic activity of the ouabain-sensitive Na+,K(+)-ATPase and the ouabain-resistant basal Mg(2+)-ATPase (specific activity--10.6 +/- 0.9 and 18.1 +/- 1.2 microM P(i)/hour on 1 mg of protein accordingly, n = 7) has been studied in the experiments carried out with the suspension of the myometrium cell plasmatic membranes treated with 0.1% digitonin solution. It was found, that the polyamine spermine in concentration of 1 and 10 mM activated the Na+,K(+)-ATPase by 54 and 64% on the average relative to control value. Spermidine also stimulated the Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity, however it did it less efficiently than spermine: by 8 and 20% on the average at concentration of 1 and 10 mM, accordingly. Similarly, polyamines had affect on the basal Mg(2+)-ATPase: spermine in concentration of 1 and 10 mM activated it by 26 and 39% relative to control value; spermidine in concentration of 1 and 10 mM activated it by 10 and 32% relative to control. The magnitudes of the apparent activation constant K(a) of spermine were 0.35 +/- 0.07 and 0.10 +/- 0.02 mM for Na+,K(+)-ATPase and basal Mg(2+)-ATPase, accordingly (M +/- m, n = 5). It is supposed, that the obtained experimental data can be useful in the further research of the membrane mechanisms underlying of the cationic exchange in the smooth muscles, in particular, when investigating the role of the plasmatic membrane in providing electromechanical coupling in them, and also in regulation of ionic homeostasis in the smooth muscle cells.
