The state of the sodium channel varies in healthy ventricular cells and those damaged by ischemia. This variability in the state has implications for antiarrhymic therapy with sodium channel blocking agents. In sick or damaged ventricular cells (i.e., from ischemia or blockade of the sodium/potassium-ATPase [sodium/potassium pump]), the resting membrane is more positive than the healthy resting membrane potential (Figure 12.10).

Humans and other vertebrates need to maintain a negative potential charge inside their cells in order to survive. This process requires sodium ions, potassium ions, and a membrane-bound enzyme called sodium/potassium ATPase. Sodium/ potassium ATPase uses energy from the hydrolysis of ATP to pump sodium ions out of cells and pump potassium ions into cells. Because of the action of this pump, the sodium ion concentration is low...

The kidney contains the major site of renin synthesis, the juxtaglomerular cells in the wall of the afferent arteriole. From these cells, renin is secreted not only into the circulation but also into the renal interstitium. Moreover, the enzyme is produced albeit in low amounts by proximal tubular cells. These cells also synthesize angiotensinogen and ACE. The RAS proteins interact in the renal interstitium and in the proximal tubular lumen to synthesize angiotensin II. In the proximal tubule, angiotensin II activates the sodium/hydrogen exchanger (NHE) that increases sodium reabsorption. Aldosterone elicits the same effect in the distal tubule by activating epithelial sodium channels (ENaC) and the sodium-potassium-ATPase. Thereby, it also induces water reabsotption and potassium secretion.

A well-known example of active transport is the sodium-potassium pump that maintains the imbalance of Na and ions across cytoplasmic membranes. Flere, the movement of ions is coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP and phosphate by the ATPase enzyme, liberating three Na+ out of the cell and pumping in two K [21-23]. Bacteria, mitochondria, and chloroplasts have a similar ion-driven uptake mechanism, but it works in reverse. Instead of ATP hydrolysis driving ion transport, H gradients across the membranes generate the synthesis of ATP from ADP and phosphate [24-27]. 

The ventricular action potential is depicted in Fig. 6-2.2 Myocyte resting membrane potential is usually -70 to -90 mV, due to the action of the sodium-potassium adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) pump, which maintains relatively high extracellular sodium concentrations and relatively low extracellular potassium concentrations. During each action potential cycle, the potential of the membrane increases to a threshold potential, usually -60 to -80 mV. When the membrane potential reaches this threshold, the fast sodium channels open, allowing sodium ions to rapidly enter the cell. This rapid influx of positive ions...

With active transport, energy is expended to move a substance against its concentration gradient from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. This process is used to accumulate a substance on one side of the plasma membrane or the other. The most common example of active transport is the sodium-potassium pump that involves the activity of Na+-K+ ATPase, an intrinsic membrane protein. For each ATP molecule hydrolyzed by Na+-K+ ATPase, this pump moves three Na+ ions out of the cell and two K+ ions into it. As will be discussed further in the next chapter, the activity of this pump contributes to the difference in composition of the extracellular and intracellular fluids necessary for nerve and muscle cells to function. 

Pumps move ions and molecules up their electrochemical gradient. Pumps require energy, usually in the form of ATP hydrolysis. Sodium-potassium ATPase is an example of a pump. Cells maintain a higher concentration of potassium inside the cell than they do outside the cell. Sodium is maintained low inside, high outside. Sodium-potassium ATPase pumps three sodium ions from inside the cell to outside. This is the unfavorable direction—Na+ moves from low concentration to a higher one and against the membrane potential. At the same time, it also...

ATP is used not only to power muscle contraction, but also to re-establish the resting state of the cell. At the end of the contraction cycle, calcium must be transported back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum, a process which is ATP driven by an active pump mechanism. Additionally, an active sodium-potassium ATPase pump is required to reset the membrane potential by extruding sodium from the sarcoplasm after each wave of depolarization. When cytoplasmic Ca2- falls, tropomyosin takes up its original position on the actin and prevents myosin binding and the muscle relaxes. Once back in the sarcoplasmic reticulum, calcium binds with a protein called calsequestrin, where it remains until the muscle is again stimulated by a neural impulse leading to calcium release into the cytosol and the cycle repeats. 

Nerve stimulation results in a net influx of sodium ions, and normal conditions are restored by the outward transport of sodium ions against an electrochemical gradient. While several earlier workers had identified ATPases in the sheath of giant squid axons, it was Skou who first connected the sodium, potassium ATPase [EC 3.6.1.37] with the ion flux of neurons. This discovery culminated...
