[Changes in the ATPase activity of the brain and erythrocytes in hypoxia]. 1975

L V Govorova, and E A Aleksandrova, and S I Teplov

An effect of hypoxic hypoxia on the total, Mg2+-dependent and Na-K-dependent ATPase activities was studied in rat brain and erythrocytes. In brain tissue under effect of 15 min hypoxia a distinct decrease in all the ATPase activities was observed; the activity of Na-K-dependent ATPase decreased especially distinctly (by 32% of the initial level). Within 90 min of hypoxia the enzymatic activity was partially restored but did not reach the initial level. In erythrocytes 15 min hypoxia was also accompanied by a significant decrease in Na-K-dependent ATPase activity (30.5% of the initial level). But within 90 min the enzymatic activity was distinctly increased (up to 196.4%). Mg2+-dependent ATP-ase was more resistant to oxygen deficiency, Variations in the enzymatic activity were less distinct, although they showed the same pattern as those of the Na-K-dependent ATPase.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008274 Magnesium A metallic element that has the atomic symbol Mg, atomic number 12, and atomic weight 24.31. It is important for the activity of many enzymes, especially those involved in OXIDATIVE PHOSPHORYLATION.
D008297 Male Males
D011188 Potassium An element in the alkali group of metals with an atomic symbol K, atomic number 19, and atomic weight 39.10. It is the chief cation in the intracellular fluid of muscle and other cells. Potassium ion is a strong electrolyte that plays a significant role in the regulation of fluid volume and maintenance of the WATER-ELECTROLYTE BALANCE.
D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D002413 Cations, Divalent Positively charged atoms, radicals or groups of atoms with a valence of plus 2, which travel to the cathode or negative pole during electrolysis. Divalent Cations
D002414 Cations, Monovalent Positively charged atoms, radicals or group of atoms with a valence of plus 1, which travel to the cathode or negative pole during electrolysis. Monovalent Cation,Cation, Monovalent,Monovalent Cations
D004789 Enzyme Activation Conversion of an inactive form of an enzyme to one possessing metabolic activity. It includes 1, activation by ions (activators); 2, activation by cofactors (coenzymes); and 3, conversion of an enzyme precursor (proenzyme or zymogen) to an active enzyme.

D004794 Enzyme Repression The interference in synthesis of an enzyme due to the elevated level of an effector substance, usually a metabolite, whose presence would cause depression of the gene responsible for enzyme synthesis. Repression, Enzyme
D004912 Erythrocytes Red blood cells. Mature erythrocytes are non-nucleated, biconcave disks containing HEMOGLOBIN whose function is to transport OXYGEN.

D000251 Adenosine Triphosphatases A group of enzymes which catalyze the hydrolysis of ATP. The hydrolysis reaction is usually coupled with another function such as transporting Ca(2+) across a membrane. These enzymes may be dependent on Ca(2+), Mg(2+), anions, H+, or DNA.
