Monoclonal antibodies 44D7 and 4F2 inhibited specifically the Na+-dependent Ca2+ fluxes characteristic of the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger in cardiac and skeletal muscle sarcolemmal vesicles. Preincubation of membrane vesicles with monoclonal antibody 44D7 inhibited 90% of the Na+-dependent Ca2+ uptake measured in the first 10 s of the reaction and 50% of that measured after 60 s. Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent ATPase activity and ATP-dependent Ca2+ uptake by sarcolemmal vesicles were not affected by monoclonal antibody 44D7 whereas the Na+-dependent release of accumulated Ca2+ was inhibited. In the presence of the 44D7 antigen isolated from human kidney, monoclonal antibody 44D7 could no longer inhibit Na+-dependent Ca2+ fluxes. The distribution of 4F2 antigenic activity in the isolated muscle membrane fractions correlated with that of Na+/Ca2+ exchanger activity; cardiac and skeletal muscle sarcolemmal vesicles expressed higher levels of the antigen than skeletal muscle transverse tubule membrane, while no antigen could be detected in sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes. Our results suggest that monoclonal antibodies 44D7 and 4F2 interact either directly with the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger molecules or with some other protein(s) responsible for the regulation of this activity in the heart and skeletal muscle.
