Direct determination of adp in hypoxic porcine carotid artery using 31p nmr

Abstract: 31P-NMR spectroscopy was performed on vascular smooth muscle (VSM; porcine carotid artery) superfused with a substrate-free high K(+)-PSS. Scans were collected before (control), during (hypoxia), and after (post-control) hypoxia, and chemical measurements of ATP (0.070 +/- 0.13 mumoles/g wet wt.) and creatine (2.04 +/- 0.14 mumol/g wet wt.) were made. During hypoxia, well-defined beta-ADP signals were consistently resolved. Their areas indicated that after 30, 60, and 90 min of hypoxia, free ADP was 0.05 +/- 0… Show more

“…1). Direct measurement of free ADP by 31 P-NMRS has been performed in a hypoxic coronary artery model using 31 P-NMRS; however, this requires scans to be averaged over a 30-min time period to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio (8). Free-ADP accumulation in skeletal muscle has been suggested to rise to ϳ0.3 mM (4) under high-energy demands, but this accumulation is transient due to the effectiveness of ATP synthesis pathways in skeletal muscle and to the rapid decline in energy demands due to fatigue.…”

“…The lower concentration of Mg ++ in smooth muscle meant that β-ADP had a different chemical shift from γ-ATP, and ADP peaks could be seen under anoxic conditions in vascular smooth muscle. 3 Using the relative concentrations of ADP from these experiments, it was shown that smooth muscle CK is both at equilibrium, and has an equilibrium constant inside cells consistent with its in vitro determination. Given this, the results presented herein are unexpected.…”

“…MgADP has also been proposed as a regulatory agent in the control of smooth muscle contraction [8], where an increase in MgADP is correlated with a decrease in force. 31 P-NMR allows simultaneous measurement of both P i and MgADP within tissues [9], making it possible to ascertain which of these two metabolites has a greater effect on smooth muscle contractions. In addition to the direct measurements of P i , ATP and phosphocreatine (PCr), other metabolites that can be determined simultaneously through mathematical calculations include pH [10], free Mg 2+ [10], total free ADP, MgATP and Mg-free ATP, and MgADP and Mg-free ADP [9]and the free energy of ATP hydrolysis.…”
