A possible link between cellular cyclic AMP content and Na+K+ATPase activity was investigated in homogenates of rat kidney. Enzyme kinetics of Mg2+ and Na+K+ATPase were run in the presence of cyclic AMP, dibutyryl cAMP and compounds expected to elevate cyclic AMP levels such as forskolin, a potent adenylate cyclase activator, IBMX, an inhibitor of phosphodiesterases, and the beta-agonist isoproterenol. Medullary Na+K+ATPase is strongly inhibited by cyclic AMP whereas cortical Na+K+ATPase was stimulated in the same conditions. The correlation between ATPase activity and cellular cyclic AMP content supports the concept of a possible regulation of the enzyme by cyclic AMP.
