Abstract
Previous studies showed that adverse effect of ionizing radiation on the cardiovascular system is beside other factors mostly mediated by reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, which deplete antioxidant stores. One of the structures highly sensitive to radicals is the Na,K-ATPase the main system responsible for extrusion of superfluous Na(+) out of the cell which utilizes the energy derived from ATP. The aim of present study was the investigation of functional properties of cardiac Na,K-ATPase in 20-week-old male rats 6 weeks after γ-irradiation by a dose 25 Gy (IR). Irradiation induced decrease of systolic blood pressure from 133 in controls to 85 mmHg in IR group together with hypertrophy of right ventricle (RV) and hypotrophy of left ventricle (LV). When activating the cardiac Na,K-ATPase with substrate, its activity was lower in IR in the whole concentration range of ATP. Evaluation of kinetic parameters revealed a decrease of the maximum velocity (V max) by 40 % with no changes in the value of Michaelis-Menten constant (K m). During activation with Na(+), we observed a decrease of the enzyme activity in hearts from IR at all tested Na(+) concentrations. The value of V max decreased by 38 %, and the concentration of Na(+) th...Continue Reading
