Department of Pharmacology, King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

The effects of three Class I antiarrhythmic agents, quinidine (Class 1A), lidocaine (Class 1B) and encainide (Class 1C) on the Mg2(+)-dependent, Na+/K+ activated adenosine triphosphatase were compared with those of ouabain in microsomal preparations of the guinea pig heart. Lidocaine and quinidine inhibited the ATP-hydrolysis by the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase in a concentration-dependent fashion similar to that of ouabain. The concentrations for half maximal inhibition of the enzyme activity were 4.1 +/- 0.7 mM for lidocaine and 0.46 +/- 0.12 mM for quinidine. Encainide exhibited stimulatory tendency at pharmacological concentrations, enhancing the enzyme activity by 2.5% at 1.0 microM and 25% at 1.0 mM. These results show that the Class I antiarrhythmic drugs may influence the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity in different ways.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008012	Lidocaine	A local anesthetic and cardiac depressant used as an antiarrhythmia agent. Its actions are more intense and its effects more prolonged than those of PROCAINE but its duration of action is shorter than that of BUPIVACAINE or PRILOCAINE.

D009206	Myocardium	The muscle tissue of the HEART. It is composed of striated, involuntary muscle cells (MYOCYTES, CARDIAC) connected to form the contractile pump to generate blood flow.

D011802	Quinidine	An optical isomer of quinine, extracted from the bark of the CHINCHONA tree and similar plant species. This alkaloid dampens the excitability of cardiac and skeletal muscles by blocking sodium and potassium currents across cellular membranes. It prolongs cellular ACTION POTENTIALS, and decreases automaticity. Quinidine also blocks muscarinic and alpha-adrenergic neurotransmission.

D006168	Guinea Pigs	A common name used for the genus Cavia. The most common species is Cavia porcellus which is the domesticated guinea pig used for pets and biomedical research.	Cavia,Cavia porcellus,Guinea Pig,Pig, Guinea,Pigs, Guinea
D006321	Heart	The hollow, muscular organ that maintains the circulation of the blood.	Hearts
D000254	Sodium-Potassium-Exchanging ATPase	An enzyme that catalyzes the active transport system of sodium and potassium ions across the cell wall. Sodium and potassium ions are closely coupled with membrane ATPase which undergoes phosphorylation and dephosphorylation, thereby providing energy for transport of these ions against concentration gradients.

D000255	Adenosine Triphosphate	An adenine nucleotide containing three phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety. In addition to its crucial roles in metabolism adenosine triphosphate is a neurotransmitter.

D000813	Anilides	Any aromatic amide obtained by acylation of aniline.
D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
