SYSTEMIC EFFECTS OF ADENOSINE TRIPHOSPHATE

Antidipsogenic effects of central adenosine-5'-triphosphate.

Besides other physiological functions, adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) is also a neurotransmitter that acts on purinergic receptors. In spite of the presence of purinergic receptors in forebrain areas involved with fluid-electrolyte balance, the effect of ATP on water intake has not been investigated. Therefore, we studied the effects of intracerebroventricular (icv) injections of ATP (100, 200...

Adenosine triphosphate inhibition in myosin adenosine triphosphate systems.

Factors affecting inhibition of myosin ATPase by ATP, such as concentration of the enzyme, of ATP, and of the divalent metals, calcium and magnesium, have been studied and the results are reported here. Experiments were carried out under conditions in which no known magnesium effects occurred, so that only the effect of calcium on the nucleoside triphosphatase activity of myosin A could be qual...

Adenosine Triphosphate-dependent Taurocholate

Transport systems involved in uptake and biliary secretion of bile salts have been extensively studied in rat liver; however, little is known about these systems in the human liver. In this study, we investigated taurocholate (TC) transport in canalicular and basolateral plasma membrane vesicles isolated from 15 human livers (donor age 6-64 yr). ATP stimulated the uptake ofTC into both canalicu...
