The Na+-K+ ATPase Pump
Cardiac glycosides:
plant and animal steroids
Ouabain!
Digitalis!:
increased Na+ conc inside heart leads to stimulation of Na+Ca2+ exchanger, which extrudes sodium in exchange for
inward movement of calcium. Increased intracellular Calcium
stimulates muscle contraction.
The Na+-K+ ATPase Pump: Mechanism
Response of a human RBC to changes in osmolarity
of the extracellular fluid
The Na+-K+ ATPase Pump is required to maintain
Osmotic Balance and Stabilize Cell Volume
Sources of Intracellular Osmolarity:
large number of counterions (inorganic ions of opposite charge) that are attracted to large
macromolecules (most are charged).
small metabolites (high concentration of small organic molecules, sugars, amino acids, nucleotides)
and their counterions
Sources of Extracellular Osmolarity:
Due mainly to small inorganic ions - these leak slowly across the plasma membrane into the cell.
The problem:
Because of above factors, water moves into the cell by osmosis
The Solution:

The ionic basis of membrane potential
The membrane potential in animal cells
depends mainly on K+ Leak channels and
the K+ gradient across the plasma membrane
dGconc= -RT ln [Co]

dGvolt=zFV
dGconc + dGvolt = 0
