Popis: | Dextran sulfate (DS) with average molecular weight (AMW) of 20,000 and sulfur content of 18%, which has a high lipemia clearing activity, enhanced Ca2+ binding to the plasma membrane of rat liver, and the DS itself bound the membrane, whereas there was little binding of DS and Ca2+. Various DSs slightly activated Na+-K+-ATPase, but not Mg2+-ATPase activity of the membrane. These results suggest that DSs, especially with high AMW of 20,000, bind the plasma membrane, resulting in enhancements of the Ca2+ binding to there and Ca2+-ATPase activity. |
