We tested the hypothesis that the adenylate cyclase system and Na+, K(+)-ATPase are reciprocally related in rat pancreatic islets. We studied the effect of theophylline, caffeine, and dibutyryl cyclic AMP on Na+, K(+)-ATPase activity in a membrane preparation from collagenase-isolated rat islets. Theophylline, caffeine, or dibutyryl cyclic AMP, in concentrations of 1 mM, all inhibited Na+, K(+)-ATPase activity (44,62, and 43%, respectively). Kinetic analysis indicated that theophylline and dibutyryl cAMP inhibit Na+, K(+)-ATPase by different mechanisms; theophylline decreased Vmax and decreased apparent Km (ATP), whereas dibutyryl cAMP decreased Vmax and increased apparent Km (ATP). Similar inhibition of Na+, K(+)-ATPase by theophylline or dibutyryl cAMP was noted in a particulate fraction from rat kidney and in a purified porcine brain Na+, K(+)-ATPase preparation. The adenylate cyclase system and Na+, K(+)-ATPase may act reciprocally in pancreatic islets and in other tissues. In the beta cell this relationship may be essential in coordinating consumption of ATP in the stimulated, as opposed to the rest, state.
