Activities of rat brain synaptic plasma membrane (SPM)Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase and Mg(2+)-ATPase were investigated by in vitro individual and simultaneous exposure to ions of the first transition series metals (Cu(2+), Zn(2+), Fe(2+)). All investigated metals produced a larger maximum inhibition of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase than Mg(2+)-ATPase activity. Metal concentrations causing 50% inhibition of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase activities were: Cu(2+) 7.1 microM Zn(2+) 19 microM Fe(2+) 25 microM. Simulataneous exposure to metal combinations: Cu(2+)/Zn(2+), Cu(2+)/Fe(2+) and Zn(2+)/Fe(2+) inhibited both the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase and Mg(2+)-ATPase activity synergistically, i.e., more than the sum of the metal induced inhibitions assayed separately. It is also established that the plot of logarithm IC50 values of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase activity vs. the ionic radius of (Cu(2+), Zn(2+), Fe(2+)) is a straight line that enables to predict the value IC50 for other metals of the first transition series. The results obtained show that Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase is promising as a biological component of biosensor.
