Effects Of Ph

The electrical and mechanical behaviour of frog twitch muscle in response to changes in membrane potential has been examined over a wide range of hydrogen ion concentration (pH 3.0–11.0). The changes in resting and action potentials, twitches, and maximum potassium-induced contractures (K contractures) were remarkably small when the pH was varied between 5.0 and 10.0. The time course of action potentials generally displayed small graded changes with variation in pH, possibly as the result of changes in surface potential.The amplitude of twitches and maximum K contractures was substantially decreased when pH was reduced to 4.0 or raised to 11.0 without significant alteration in membrane resting potential or consistent suppression of excitation, but maximum caffeine-induced contractures were unchanged. Replacement of chloride with perchlorate promptly antagonized the depressant effects of pH extremes (4.0, 11.0) on both twitch amplitude and maximum K-contracture tension. Acid-induced reductions in maximum K-contracture tension also were partially antagonized by increased calcium concentration. The onset and recovery from the contraction-depressant effects of pH extremes were too slow to be explained by the titration of groups immediately accessible at the membrane surface but too rapid to be accounted for by changes in intracellular pH. Thus, excitation and contraction apparently were uncoupled by sufficient alteration in extracellular pH. Changes in external pH had little effect on the impairment of maximum K contractures by media lacking divalent cations, or on the restoration of such responses by perchlorate except at very alkaline pH (10.0–11.0).The threshold for K contractures was reduced at pH 11.0, but otherwise was little affected by variation in pH at normal concentrations of divalent cations. Altered pH did not modify the usual effects of increased calcium concentration on the relation between potassium concentration and K-contracture tension. When K contractures were maintained by perchlorate in the absence of divalent cations, hydrogen ions displayed calcium-like actions on the relation between external K concentration ([K]0) and K-contracture tension, and also on the time course of submaximum K contractures. These observations are compatible with similar effects of hydrogen and calcium ions on surface potential.The problem of identifying putative charged groups which might influence the linkage between contractile responses and changes in membrane potential is discussed.

The stretch receptor organs of Alexandrowicz in lobster and crayfish possess sensory neurons which have their cell bodies in the periphery. The cell bodies send dendrites into a fine nearby muscle strand and at the opposite pole they give rise to an axon running to the central nervous system. Mechanisms of excitation between dendrites, cell soma, and axon have been studied in completely isolated receptor structures with the cell components under visual observation. Two sensory neuron types were investigated, those which adapt rapidly to stretch, the fast cells, and those which adapt slowly, the slow cells. 1. Potentials recorded from the cell body of the neurons with intracellular leads gave resting potentials of 70 to 80 mv. and action potentials which in fresh preparations exceeded the resting potentials by about 10 to 20 mv. In some experiments chymotrypsin or trypsin was used to make cell impalement easier. They did not appreciably alter resting or action potentials. 2. It has been shown that normally excitation starts in the distal portion of dendrites which are depolarized by stretch deformation. The changed potential within the dendritic terminals can persist for the duration of stretch and is called the generator potential. Secondarily, by electrotonic spread, the generator potential reduces the resting potential of the nearby cell soma. This excitation spread between dendrites and soma is seen best during subthreshold excitation by relatively small stretches of normal cells. It is also seen during the whole range of receptor stretch in neurons in which nerve conduction has been blocked by an anesthetic. The electrotonic changes in the cells are graded, reflecting the magnitude and rate of rise of stretch, and presumably the changing levels of the generator potential. Thus in the present neurons the resting potential and the excitability level of the cell soma can be set and controlled over a wide range by local events within the dendrites. 3. Whenever stretch reduces the resting membrane potential, measured in the relaxed state in the cell body, by 8 to 12 mv. in slow cells and by 17 to 22 mv. in fast cells, conducted impulses are initiated. It is thought that in slow cells conducted impulses are initiated in the dendrites while in fast cells they arise in the cell body or near to it. In fresh preparations the speed of stretch does not appreciably influence the membrane threshold for discharges, while during developing fatigue the firing level is higher when extension is gradual. 4. Some of the specific neuron characteristics are: Fast receptor cells have a relatively high threshold to stretch. During prolonged stretch the depolarization of the cell soma is not well maintained, presumably due to a decline in the generator potential, resulting in cessation of discharges in less than a minute. This appears to be the basis of the relatively rapid adaptation. A residual subthreshold depolarization can persist for many minutes of stretch. Slow cells which resemble the sensory fibers of vertebrate spindles are excited by weak stretch. Their discharge rate remains remarkably constant for long periods. It is concluded that, once threshold excitation is reached, the generator potential within slow cell dendrites is well maintained for the duration of stretch. Possible reasons for differences in discharge properties between fast and slow cells are discussed. 5. If stretch of receptor cells is gradually continued above threshold, the discharge frequency first increases over a considerable range without an appreciable change in the firing level for discharges. Beyond that range the membrane threshold for conducted responses of the cell soma rises, the impulses become smaller, and partial conduction in the soma-axon boundary region occurs. At a critical depolarization level which may be maintained for many minutes, all conduction ceases. These overstretch phenomena are reversible and resemble cathodal block. 6. The following general scheme of excitation is proposed: stretch deformation of dendritic terminals → generator potential → electrotonic spread toward the cell soma (prepotential) → dendrite-soma impulse → axon impulse. 7. Following release of stretch a transient hyperpolarization of slow receptor cells was seen. This off effect is influenced by the speed of relaxation. 8. Membrane potential changes recorded in the cell bodies serve as very sensitive detectors of activity within the receptor muscle bundles, indicating the extent and time course of contractile events.

Resting and action potentials were recorded from superfused strips of frog ventricle. Reducing the bathing calcium concentration ([Ca2+]0) with or without ethylene glycol-bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)N,N,N',N'-tetraacetate (EGTA) prolongs the action potential (AP). The change in the duration of the AP extends over many minutes, but is rapidly reversed by restoring calcium ions. Other changes (e.g., in resting potential and overshoot) are, however, only more slowly reversed. Reducing [Ca2+]0 with 0.2, 2, or 5 mM EGTA produces progressively greater prolongation of AP; maximum values were well in excess of 1 min. This prolongation can be reversed by other divalent cations in EGTA (Mg2+, Sr2+) or Ca-free (Mn2+) solutions, or by acetylcholine. Barium ions increase AP duration in keeping with their known effect on potassium conductance. D600, which blocks the slow inward current in cardiac muscle, is without effect on the action potentials recorded in EGTA solutions, or on the time course and extent of the recovery to normal duration upon restoring calcium ions. It is concluded that divalent cations exert an influence on membrane potassium conductance extracellularly in frog heart. The cell membrane does not become excessively "leaky" in EGTA solutions.

Set Up

The present investigation continues a previous study in which the soma-dendrite system of sensory neurons was excited by stretch deformation of the peripheral dendrite portions. Recording was done with intracellular leads which were inserted into the cell soma while the neuron was activated orthodromically or antidromically. The analysis was also extended to axon conduction. Crayfish, Procambarus alleni (Faxon) and Orconectes virilis (Hagen), were used. 1. The size and time course of action potentials recorded from the soma-dendrite complex vary greatly with the level of the cell's membrane potential. The latter can be changed over a wide range by stretch deformation which sets up a "generator potential" in the distal portions of the dendrites. If a cell is at its resting unstretched equilibrium potential, antidromic stimulation through the axon causes an impulse which normally overshoots the resting potential and decays into an afternegativity of 15 to 20 msec. duration. The postspike negativity is not followed by an appreciable hyperpolarization (positive) phase. If the membrane potential is reduced to a new steady level a postspike positivity appears and increases linearly over a depolarization range of 12 to 20 mv. in various cells. At those levels the firing threshold of the cell for orthodromic discharges is generally reached. 2. The safety factor for conduction between axon and cell soma is reduced under three unrelated conditions, (a) During the recovery period (2 to 3 msec.) immediately following an impulse which has conducted fully over the cell soma, a second impulse may be delayed, may invade the soma partially, or may be blocked completely. (b) If progressive depolarization is produced by stretch, it leads to a reduction of impulse height and eventually to complete block of antidromic soma invasion, resembling cathodal block, (c) In some cells, when the normal membrane potential is within several millivolts of the relaxed resting state, an antidromic impulse may be blocked and may set up within the soma a local potential only. The local potential can sum with a second one or it may sum with potential changes set up in the dendrites, leading to complete invasion of the soma. Such antidromic invasion block can always be relieved by appropriate stretch which shifts the membrane potential out of the "blocking range" nearer to the soma firing level. During the afterpositivity of an impulse in a stretched cell the membrane potential may fall below or near the blocking range. During that period another impulse may be delayed or blocked. 3. Information regarding activity and conduction in dendrites has been obtained indirectly, mainly by analyzing the generator action under various conditions of stretch. The following conclusions have been reached: The large dendrite branches have similar properties to the cell body from which they arise and carry the same kind of impulses. In the finer distal filaments of even lightly depolarized dendrites, however, no axon type all-or-none conduction occurs since the generator potential persists to a varying degree during antidromic invasion of the cell. With the membrane potential at its resting level the dendrite terminals contribute to the prolonged impulse afternegativity of the soma. 4. Action potentials in impaled axons and in cell bodies have been compared. It is thought that normally the over-all duration of axon impulses is shorter. Local activity during reduction of the safety margin for conduction was studied. 5. An analysis was made of high frequency grouped discharges which occasionally arise in cells. They differ in many essential aspects from the regular discharges set up by the generator action. It is proposed that grouped discharges occur only when invasion of dendrites is not synchronous, due to a delay in excitation spread between soma and dendrites. Each impulse in a group is assumed to be caused by an impulse in at least one of the large dendrite branches. Depolarization of dendrites abolishes the grouped activity by facilitating invasion of the large dendrite branches.

1. The inferior rectus muscle of rat, one of the extraocular muscles, contains two populations of multiply innervated fibers (MIFs): orbital MIFs, located in the orbital layer of the muscle and global MIFs, found in the global layer. The electrical properties and the responses to nerve stimulation of orbital MIFs were studied with single intracellular electrodes and compared with those of twitch fibers of the orbital layer, MIFs of the global layer, and tonic fibers of the frog. 2. About 90% of the orbital MIFs did not produce overshooting action potentials. In these fibers the characteristics and time course of the responses to nerve stimulation varied along the length of the fibers. Within 2 mm of the end-plate band of the muscle, the responses consisted of several small end-plate potentials (EPPs) and a nonovershooting spike. Distal to 2 mm, the responses in most fibers consisted of large and small EPPs with no spiking response. Some fibers produced very small spikes surmounted on large EPPs. 3. Overshooting action potentials were observed in approximately 10% of the orbital MIFs recorded between the end-plate band and 2 mm distal. The presence or absence of action potentials was not related to the magnitude of the resting potential of the fibers. 4. The threshold of nerve stimulated responses in orbital MIFs was the same as that in orbital twitch fibers. A large number of orbital MIFs had latencies equal to those for the orbital twitch fibers recorded at the same distance from the end-plate band, but the average latency was greater in the MIFs. The latency of orbital MIFs was about one-half of that for the MIFs of the global layer. The values for the effective resistance and membrane time constant of orbital MIFs fell between those for orbital twitch fibers on the one hand, and global MIFs and frog tonic fibers on the other. 5. In order to compare electrical properties with innervation patterns, fibers identified electrophysiologically as orbital MIFs were injected with the fluorescent dye Lucifer yellow and then traced in Epon-embedded, serial transverse sections. In addition to numerous superficial endings distributed along the fibers, a single "en plaque" ending was also found in the end-plate band that resembled the end plates of the adjacent orbital twitch fibers. 6. From these results we conclude that the electrical activity of orbital MIFs varies along the length of the fibers.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

1. A simple colorimetric method for plotting the dissociation curve of haemocyanin is indicated. The limits of error are within 5 per cent. The simplicity of the method commends it for laboratory class work.2. The effect of hydrogen ion concentration on the dissociation of the hsemocyanins of the crustacean Palinurus and the pulmonate Helix have been compared. In the snail change of hydrogen ion concentration over a wide range was not found to affect the dissociation of the hsemocyanin: in 'the crustacean there is a marked effect similar to that seen in the dissociation of hæmoglobin.3. The similarity of crustacean hsemocyanin to haemoglobin is also seen in that increasing temperature depresses the dissociation curve. The effects of certain salts upon haemocyanin. have also been recorded.

The Stability

For an isolated membrane, the resting (zero current) potential is stable if the slope conductance is positive, and is unstable if the slope conductance is negative. Recent work suggests that the properties of many preparations are influenced by the presence of an extracellular space that is not in good diffusive contact with the bulk extracellular fluid. Ionic current flow across the membrane changes the ion concentrations in this space. These concen­tration changes affect the stability of the membrane potential. Even if the slope conductance is negative, the presence of the extracellular space can confer stability on the resting potential. Conversely, even if the slope conductance is positive, the extracellular space can produce instability of the resting potential. Evaluation of the relevant parameters for cardiac Purkinje fibres, from published experimental data, suggests that concen­tration changes in the extracellular space may play a significant role in determining when an action potential is initiated.

1. The hyperpolarization that follows tetanic stimulation was recorded intra-axonally from the internodal region of intramuscular myelinated motor axons. 2. The peak amplitude of the posttetanic hyperpolarization (PTH) that followed stimulation at 20-100 Hz for < or = 35 s increased with increasing train duration, reaching a maximum of 22 mV. PTH decayed over a time course that increased from tens to hundreds of seconds with increasing train duration. For a given frequency of stimulation the time integral of PTH was proportional to the number of stimuli in the train, averaging 3-4 mV.s per action potential. 3. Ouabain (0.1-1 mM) and cyanide (1 mM) depolarized the resting potential and abolished PTH. Tetanic stimulation in ouabain was followed by a slowly decaying depolarization (probably due to extra-axonal K+ accumulation) whose magnitude and duration increased as the duration of the train increased. 4. Axonal input resistance showed no consistent change during PTH in normal solution but increased during PTH in the presence of 3 mM Cs+ (which blocks axonal inward rectifier currents). 5. PTH was abolished when bath Na+ was replaced by Li+ or choline. PTH persisted after removal of bath Ca2+ and addition of 2 mM Mn2+. 6. Removal of bath K+ abolished the PTH recorded after brief stimulus trains and greatly reduced the duration of PTH recorded after longer stimulus trains. 7. A brief application of 10 mM K+, which normally depolarizes axons, produced a ouabain-sensitive hyperpolarization in axons bathed in K(+)-free solution. 8. These observations suggest that in these myelinated axons PTH is produced mainly by activation of an electrogenic Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, rather than by changes in K+ permeability or transmembrane [K+] gradients. This conclusion is supported by calculations showing agreement between estimates of Na+ efflux/impulse based on PTH measurements and estimates of Na+ influx/impulse based on nodal voltage-clamp measurements. Pump activity also appears to contribute to the resting potential. 9. The stimulus intensity required to initiate a propagating action potential increased during PTH but decreased during the posttetanic depolarization recorded in ouabain. Thus changes in axonal excitability after tetanic stimulation correlate with changes in the posttetanic membrane potential. 10. Action potentials that propagated during PTH had a larger peak amplitude and were followed by a larger and longer depolarizing afterpotential than action potentials elicited at the resting potential. This enhancement of the depolarizing afterpotential is consistent with previous reports of an increased superexcitable period after action potentials evoked during PTH.

Transketolase, in the human erythrocyte, is confined to the soluble fraction of the cell. The activation energy for the formation of sedoheptulose-7-phosphate (S-7-P) from pentose phosphate was found to be 11,500 calories and the rate of formation of S-7-P to be directly proportional to the concentration of the enzyme. The Michaelis constant, with ribose-5-phosphate (R-5-P) as the added substrate, was found to be 6 × 10−3 M. The activity of the enzyme is close to the maximum over a wide range of hydrogen ion concentration (pH 7.1 to 8.3) with only a gradual decrease beyond these limits. The transketolase, in the dialyzed stroma-free hemolyzate, is active without the addition of magnesium ions or thiamine pyrophosphate. It is unaffected by sulphydryl-binding inhibitors and by EDTA and oxythiamine pyrophosphate.Transaldolase activity also has been demonstrated in the hemolyzate of human red cells. The rate of the production of hexose phosphate from sedoheptulose-7-phosphate was found to be of the order of 40 μmoles/g Hb/hour. The activity of the enzyme is close to the maximum between pH 7.18 and 7.75.

The study tested the hypothesis that annual medic species which nodulate well in acid soils in the field (M. murex Willd. and M. polymorpha L.) will nodulate better in acid solutions with low calcium concentrations than annual medics which nodulate poorly in acid soils (M, truncatula Gaertn.). Effects of pH (5.5 and 6.5) and calcium concentration (0.2, 0.5, 1 and 2 mM) on the early growth and nodulation of three annual medic species (M. truncatula, M. polymorpha and M. murex) were investigated. Increasing pH or calcium concentration did not increase plant growth for any of the species. However, nodulation was generally depressed by low pH for all species. Increasing calcium concentration in solution increased nodulation in all species. Effects of low pH and low calcium concentration in decreasing nodule number were much greater for M. truncatula than for M. polymorpha and M. murex. At pH 5.5, M. truncatula failed to nodulate at any calcium concentration, whereas a large proportion of M. murex plants nodulated at 1 mM calcium and some M. polymorpha plants nodulated at 2 mM calcium. At pH 6.5, M. polymorpha required 1 mM calcium in solution for maximum nodule number, and M. murex only 0.5 mM calcium, whereas nodule number for M. truncatula increased up to 2 mM calcium, the highest concentration used. The results provide the basis for a simple screening system to distinguish differences among annual medics in nodulation tolerance to acidity. The maintenance of ranking among species with respect to nodulation over a wide range of stresses induced by combinations of low pH and calcium concentration suggest that screening using a single stress combining these two components would be adequate. Nodulation differences between species can be simply and effectively assessed using a scoring system combining number size and location of nodules.

The physical and nutritional requirements for growth of Hexamita inflata have been studied in axenic cultures. The flagellate was capable of growing over a wide range of temperature (5 °C to 25 °C), of hydrogen ion concentration (pH 4.5 to 8.5), and of salinity (3 to 28‰); and required a reducing or anaerobic environment. The requirement of an egg-yolk suspension for growth was partially satisfied by unsaturated fatty acids. Attempts to replace the peptone by mixtures of amino acids were not successful. A simple medium containing a vitamin mixture, linoleic acid, glucose, cysteine, peptone, and salt has been formulated.
