Notizen: Synaptosomes incubated in a physiological saline extrude sodium and take up potassium. As would be expected this process is completely blocked by metabolic inhibitors such as cyanide and iodoacetate. However, when metabolic inhibitors are replaced by ouabain (100 μM) there is an increase in the steady state intrasynaptosomal sodium and chloride content even though there is no change in the potassium content. The increases are prevented when synaptosomes are incubated with metabolic inhibitors in addition to ouabain. There is therefore a ouabain-insensitive process that transports sodium, chloride and concomitantly water into synaptosomes. It appears not to function when the supply of metabolic energy is inhibited. The diuretic furosemide (1 mM) in the presence of ouabain inhibits the entry of sodium and chloride without affecting the intrasynaptosomal potassium concentration. Ethacrynic acid (1 mM) has a somewhat similar effect but in addition appears to damage the synaptosome membrane.Kinetic measurements were made of the uptake of sodium, potassium and chloride under conditions of metabolic inhibition and the permeability constants of the membrane determined. Values of 0.068, 0.117 and 0.032 × 10-6 (cm s-1) were found for the permeability constants of the membrane to (respectively) sodium, potassium and chloride. Measurements of the rate of uptake in the presence of ouabain revealed an inwardly directed sodium and chloride flux of 5-20 pmol cm-2 s-1. Calculation of the fluxes from the steady state ion concentrations also reveals an inwardly directed sodium and chloride flux, though of lesser magnitude. The influx of water is less than would be expected to preserve osmotic equality suggesting that the translocation of sodium and chloride is the primary event. Although its function remains uncertain the flux has a considerable effect on the ion content of synaptosomes.
