摘要：

In the present work we studied the effect of serotonin (5-HT) on the kinetics of Na+/K+-ATPase in subcellular preparations of the cerebral cortex from male Wistar rats using various concentrations of ATP and K+ with and without added 5-HT. Also we studied the effect of 5-HT on the enzyme in glial or neuronal preparations. The results indicated that there was a significant increase (P < 0.05) of the V(max) in the presence of 5-HT in the whole tissue preparation (homogenate) but not in the subcellular fractions, suggesting that the interaction could be preferentially with the glial pump. Further results supported that this was the case since activation by 5-HT was mainly in the glial preparations. Kinetic data and the binding of [H-3]ouabain supported that the enzyme is activated by 5-HT through the exposure of more enzymatic active sites.
