“…We have found no effect of 1 • 10 3 M diltiazem on Ca,Mg-ATPase activity of plasma membrane-enriched fractions prepared from bovine corneal epithelium (data not shown). Variable effects of these agents have been reported on Na,KATPase activity including no change as well as stimulation of pump activity (Murphy et al, 1982;Pan & Janis, 1984). Verapamil also has been reported to inhibit K influx and efflux in cardiac Purkinje fibers (Posner et al, 1975).…”

“…It is unlikely that an increase in activity and gene expression of Na + ‐K + ‐ATPase was as a result of an increase in the blood pressure, low plasma potassium level or acid–base disturbance as both pre‐ and postadrenalectomy groups had these parameters comparable to those of the control group. In addition, it is unlikely that the changes observed were because of the use of antihypertensive agents as both nifedipine and hydralazine have been shown to have no effect on Na + ‐K + ‐ATPase subunits in the cardiac muscles of rats, 23 and nifedipine has no effect on Na + ‐K + ‐ATPase activity in isolate smooth muscle membranes from rat aorta 24 . However, we cannot totally exclude the possibility that these drugs might have some effects on skeletal muscle Na + ‐K + ‐ATPase activity.…”

“…Kidwai [6] has demon strated that Na+ and K+ did not stimulate magnesium-dependent ATPase activity of mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum lOpmol Pi/mg protein/h of Na,K-ATPase activity from bovine aorta, and Wolowyk et al [4] about 21 pmol Pi/mg protein/h for the rabbit aorta in the presence of a nonenzymatic factor remaining in the supernatant fraction after 10,000-g centrifugation. Re cently, Pan and Janis [32] have also demon strated about 19 pmol Pi/mg protein/h of Na,K-ATPase activity of rat aortic microsomes. In the present experiments, the mag nitude of the Na,K-ATPase activity of the sarcolemma-enriched fraction of bovine aorta was also similar to that for the cardiac muscle cell.…”
