Popis: There is a renewed interest in the Na+/K+-ATPase (NKA, EC 3.6.3.9) either as a target for new therapeutic uses or for understanding the putative pathophysiological role of its mammalian endogenous ligands. Recent data indicate that bufalin binds to the pig kidney NKA in a way different from ouabain and digoxin, raising the question of a putative class difference between bufadienolides and cardenolides. The purpose of this work was to perform a study of the relationship between structure and both activity and kinetics, focusing mainly on the influence of the lactone ring in C17 (5 vs. 6 membered), the effect of C14-15 cyclization and the carbohydrate moiety in C3. We compared the potency of fourteen related cardiotonic steroids (CTS) for inhibition of the cycling pig kidney NKA in two different concentrations of K+, as well as the affinity for binding to the E2P conformation of the enzyme (Mg-Pi medium) and the potency for inhibiting the E2[2K] conformation of the NKA (K+-pNPPase activity). Cardenolides were clearly sensitive to the antagonistic effect of high K+ concentrations whereas bufadienolides were not or less sensitive. The C14-15 cyclization observed in some bufadienolides, such as resibufogenin and marinobufagin, caused a drastic fall in the affinity for binding to the NKA in the E2P conformation and increased the velocity of K+-pNPPase inhibition. The absence of a carbohydrate moiety in C3 increased the velocity of inhibition. Cardenolides were much more dependent on the E2P conformation for binding than bufadienolides since their ratios of E2[2K] IC50 to E2P Ki were higher than for bufadienolides. Therefore, the present data established the remarkable influence of C14-15 cyclization and of the carbohydrate moiety in C3 on both affinity and kinetics of CTS and indicate that, as a class, bufadienolides would harbor qualitative differences from cardenolides with respect to the NKA conformations to which they can bind.
