| Abstract | Na(+),K(+)-ATPase is a heterodimer consisting of catalytic 1- 4 and regulatory ß1-ß3 subunits. Recently, we reported that transfection with ouabain-resistant 1R-Na(+),K(+)-ATPase rescues renal epithelial C7-MDCK cells exclusively expressing the ouabain-sensitive 1S-isoform from the cytotoxic action of ouabain. To explore the role of 2 subunit in ion transport and cytotoxic action of ouabain, we compared the effect of ouabain on K(+) ((86)Rb) influx and the survival of ouabain-treated C7-MDCK cells stably transfected with 1R- and 2R-Na(+),K(+)-ATPase. 2R mRNA in transfected cells was â ¼8-fold more abundant than 1R mRNA, whereas immunoreactive 2R protein content was 5-fold lower than endogenous 1S protein. A concentration of 10 µmol/L ouabain led to complete inhibition of (86)Rb influx both in mock- and 2R-transfected cells, whereas maximal inhibition of (86)Rb influx in 1R-transfectd cells was observed at 1000 µmol/L ouabain. In contrast to the massive death of mock- and 2R-transfected cells exposed to 3 µmol/L ouabain , 1R-cells survived after 24 h incubation with 1000 µmol/L ouabain. Thus, our results show that unlike 1R, the presence of 2R-Na(+),K(+)-ATPase subunit mRNA and immunoreactive protein does not contribute to Na(+)/K(+) pump activity, and does not rescue C7-MDCK cells from the cytotoxic action of ouabain. Our results also suggest that the lack of impact of transfected 2-Na(+),K(+)-ATPase on Na(+)/K(+) pump activity and cell survival can be attributed to the low efficiency of its translation and (or) delivery to the plasma membrane of renal epithelial cells. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
