Abstract

The effects of 23 agonists on the rates of cellular 32P efflux and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release were tested in a perfused rat heart preparation which had been prelabelled in vitro with [32P]Pi. Some 13 compounds produced detectable changes at high doses within 10 min, and in most cases a polyphasic response was observed. Six classes of compound gave rise to substantial effects, as follows. Catecholamines and glucagon produced a transient initial stimulation of Pi efflux, followed by a long-term inhibition of Pi transport and an increased rate of LDH release. These effects were clearly different from the response seen after treatment with dibutyryl cyclic AMP, which had a slower, stimulatory, effect on Pi output in doses which gave rise to a pronounced inotropic effect, and produced a marked increase in both coronary flow and LDH release. Carbachol also gave rise to a large transient stimulation of Pi efflux, which was followed by smaller sustained increase in Pi output without any obvious effect on LDH release. Dibutyryl cyclic GMP had no effect on Pi efflux or LDH release. Insulin decreased the rate of Pi efflux, although the loss rate partially recovered towards the control value after prolonged exposure to the hormone. Insulin had no obvious inotropic effects and produced no change in the rate of LDH release. Corticosteroids increased the rate of Pi efflux, although the loss rate partially declined towards the control value with prolonged exposure to the hormones. Corticosteroids produced a very slight inotropic response, and large doses sometimes increased the rate of LDH release from the tissue. Aldosterone slightly stimulated Pi output. A small, transient and somewhat variable stimulation of Pi efflux was observed with vasopressin and angiotensin, whereas tri-iodothyronine was slightly inhibitory, but adenosine, histamine, spermidine, des-Asp1-angiotensin, prolactin, parathyroid substances, calcitonin and somatostatin had no significant effects under our experimental conditions. Ouabain stimulated Pi efflux in doses that had no detectable inotropic effect. It is suggested that Pi efflux involves the electroneutral transport of NaH2PO4 across the cardiac plasmalemma and that many of the hormonal effects might be explained by changes in the intracellular [Na+] and pH in addition to changes in the intracellular [Pi].
