Ion specificity of cardiac sarcolemmal Na+/H+ antiporter

In bovine cardiac sarcolemmal vesicles, an outward H+ gradient stimulated the initial rate of amiloride-sensitive uptake of 22Na+, 42K+, or 86Rb+. Release of H+ from the vesicles was stimulated by extravesicular Na+, K+, Rb+, or Li+ but not by choline or N- methylglucamine. Uptakes of Na+ and Rb+ were half-saturated at 3 mM Na+ and 3 mM Rb+, but the maximal velocity of Na+ uptake was 1.5 times that of Rb+ uptake. Na+ uptake was inhibited by extravesicular K+, Rb+, or Li+, and Rb+ uptake was inhibited by extravesicular Na+ or Li+. Amiloride-sensitive uptake of Na+ or Rb+ increased with increase in extravesicular pH and decrease in intravesicular pH. In the absence of pH gradient, there were stimulations of Na+ uptake by intravesicular Na+ and K+ and of Rb+ uptake by intravesicular Rb+ and Na+. Similarly, there were trans stimulations of Na+ and Rb+ efflux by extravesicular alkali cations. The data suggest the existence of a nonselective antiporter catalyzing either alkali cation/H+ exchange or alkali cation/alkali cation exchange. Since increasing Na+ caused complete inhibition of Rb+/H+ exchange, but saturating K+ caused partial inhibitions of Na+/H+ exchange and Na+/Na+ exchange, the presence of a Na(+)-selective antiporter is also indicated. Although both antiporters may be involved in pH homeostasis, a role of the nonselective antiporter may be in the control of Na+/K+ exchange across the cardiac sarcolemma.
