abstract = {AIM: To study the mechanism of gossypol-induced hypokalemia.
METHODS: The 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (11 beta-OHSD) protein was
prepared from guinea pig kidney. The activity of 11 beta-OHSD with NAD or NADP as
the coenzyme was measured by HPLC in both control and gossypol treatment.
RESULTS: The Vmax and K(m) were 0.64 mmol.h-1/g protein and 0.07 mumol (cortisol)
for NAD-dependent 11 beta-OHSD, 1.75 mmol.h-1/g protein and 0.21 mumol (cortisol)
for NADP-dependent 11 beta-OHSD, respectively when 80 micrograms of enzyme
protein was used. The inhibitory effects of gossypol on these two 11 beta-OHSD
isoforms were different. The IC50 (95% confidence limits) were 50.2 (48.3-52.0)
mumol of gossypol for NAD-dependent 11 beta-OHSD and 1143 (1098-1188) mumol of
gossypol for NADP-dependent 11 beta-OHSD. The Ki was gossypol 96 mmol.L-1 for the
former and 340 mmol.L-1 for the latter.
CONCLUSION: The NAD-dependent 11 beta-OHSD is a more critical physiologic
mechanism than NADP-dependent 11 beta-OHSD for hypokalemia caused by gossypol.},
