Abstract

An estimation of the actual Na/K-ATPase transport activity in intact cardiac cells was made by measuring the binding of [3H]-ouabain to rat and guinea-pig ventricular strips. At the low [3H]-ouabain concentration of 1 nM equilibrium binding was hardly obtained after an incubation time of five hours. Different procedures known to alter the sodium load of the cardiac preparations influenced [3H]-ouabain binding: the sodium ionophore monensin enhanced [3H]-ouabain binding, the local anaesthetic dibucaine and a reduction of external sodium ion concentration diminished [3H]-ouabain binding; [3H]-ouabain binding was similarly affected by these procedures in the rat and guinea-pig. Since [3H]-ouabain binding occurred predominantly at the high-affinity binding sites of rat myocardium under the applied experimental conditions, it was concluded that these binding sites represent Na/K-ATPase molecules involved in sodium ion transport.
