Abstract:
:Intact human erythrocytes, initially depleted of Mg2+ by EDTA incubation in the presence of A23187, exhibit Mg(2+)-dependent phosphate production of around 1.5 mmol per liter cells.h, half-maximally activated at around 0.4 mM added free Mg2+. This appears to correspond to Mg(2+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase (Mg(2+)-ATPase) activity found in isolated membranes, which is known to have a similar activity and affinity for Mg2+. Vanadate (up to 100 microM) inhibited Mg(2+)-dependent phosphate production and ATP breakdown in intact cells. Over a similar concentration range vanadate (3-100 microM) transformed intact cells from normal discocytes to echinocytes within 4-8 h at 37 degrees C, and more rapidly in Mg(2+)-depleted cells. The rate of Ca(2+)-induced echinocytosis was also enhanced in Mg(2+)-depleted cells. These results support previous studies in erythrocyte ghosts suggesting that vanadate-induced shape change is associated with inhibition of Mg(2+)-ATPase activity localized in the plasma membrane of the red blood cell.
