RESUMEN
Glycerate 2,3-bisphosphate, a potent stimulator of the cytosolic 5'-nucleotidase which preferentially hydrolyzes IMP and GMP in human erythrocytes (Bontemps et al., 1988, Biochem. J. 250, 687-696), also stimulates the dephosphorylation of IMP in cytosol fractions of rat heart, liver, brain, kidney, spleen and erythrocytes, and of human polymorphonuclear leucocytes, mixed peripheral blood lymphocytes, platelets and fibroblasts. Depending on the cell type, stimulation by 5 mM glycerate 2,3-bisphosphate varied from 1.5- to 12-fold. Where investigated, glycerate 2,3-bisphosphate had an approx. 5-fold higher affinity for the enzyme than its other stimulator, ATP. These observations provide a useful tool to distinguish IMP-GMP 5'-nucleotidase from other 5'-nucleotidases, and suggest a common origin of the cytosolic IMP-GMP 5'-nucleotidase in various tissues.

Oxygen affinity of haemoglobin is modulated by several parameters such as the allosteric effector 2-3 DPG for most mammalians. Inositol hexaphosphate (I.H.P.) exerts the same effect on haemoglobin. A previously developed new methodology for the entrapment of drugs into erythrocytes has been adapted to I.H.P.; it is based on a reversible osmotic shock. I.H.P. loaded red blood cells have characteristics very similar to those of native cells. The decrease in oxygen affinity is related to the dose of encapsulated I.H.P. In piglets, transfusion of such cells has led to an increase of oxygen extraction from haemoglobin. Normal anesthetized animals regulate their oxygen consumption by reduction of cardiac output.

A computer program is described, relating blood flow with venous PO2 for any given set of the following parameters: oxygen uptake, respiratory quotient, the 2,3-DPG/Hb molar concentration ratio (G), arterial PO2, PCO2, and pH. Two compartments (total body and one leg) and two conditions (rest and maximal exercise) are considered. Calculations are performed at five altitudes (0, 3850, 5400, 6300 and 8848 m), for which the above variables are known. The results indicate that an increased G value has a negative effect on the oxygen delivery to tissues at very high altitudes (greater than 5400 m), irrespectively of the work load, since larger blood flows (delta Q on the summit of Mt. Everest is +4 to +71/min, and +1 to +2.5 l/min, for whole body and one leg, respectively) are required for a given oxygen uptake. For submaximal work at altitudes ranging from sea level up to 5400 m, as well as for moderate work at 5400 m, high G values improve the oxygen delivery to tissues.

We analyzed 56 O2 equilibrium curves of fresh human blood, each from 0 to 150 Torr Po2. The data were collected over ranges of values for the 2,3-diphosphoglyceric acid-to-hemoglobin concentration ratio [DPG]/[Hb] of 0.2-2.7, for pH of 7.0-7.8, and for Pco2 of 7-70 Torr. Each curve was characterized according to the Adair scheme for the stepwise oxygenation of Hb, and the resulting constants (a1, a2, a3, a4) were analyzed to allow the simulation of the entire O2 equilibrium curve under any conditions of [DPG]/[Hb], pH, and Pco2 in the specified range. This analysis provides a powerful tool to study the affinity of Hb for O2 within the red blood cell and to predict the shape of the O2 equilibrium curve in various physiological and pathological states. Other attempts to predict blood O2 affinity have considered only P50 (the Po2 at one-half saturation with O2) or have provided too little data for continuous simulations.

1. Oxygen-linked carbamino formation in fetal erythrocytes was compared to that measured in adult erythrocytes. 2. Whole oxygen binding curves were recorded on washed intact erythrocytes either fresh or D-glycerate-2,3-P depleted with a continuous recording technique. Erythrocytes were resuspended in buffer media of different pH and PCO2 varying from 0-10.7 kPa (80 torr) at physiological ionic strength. Oxygen linked carbamates were estimated as deltalog PO2/delta log PCO2 at constant pH and constant saturation levels from 10-90% oxygen saturation. 3. The overall CO2 effect (deltalog P50/deltalog PCO2) was consistently lower in fetal erythrocytes than in the adult. The deltalog PO2/deltalog PCO2 ratio was markedly dependent on oxygen saturation in both types of erythrocytes and highest at the early part of the oxygen binding curve. This was more so in fetal erythrocytes. 4. Carbamino formation was lower in fetal erythrocytes than in adult erythrocytes at any pH value, indicating a higher apparent pK of the alpha amino groups involved in CO2 binding in fetal erythrocytes. This may be related to the different primary structures of the non alpha chains of HbFII and HbAI. 5. The large effect of low PCO2 on both fetal and adult erythrocytes was related to the higher affinity for CO2 of deoxyhemoglobin compared to oxyhemoglobin and a model for CO2 binding analogous to that described by de Bruin et al. [6] for anion binding is proposed. 6. It is concluded that the lower CO2 binding to fetal erythrocytes is in keeping with the lower allosteric effect of other major effectors of hemoglobin within the cells. This leads to a higher affinity for O2 of fetal erythrocytes well suited for O2 transport in utero.

In 48 individuals (age 1 day to 13 years) with congenital heart disease, blood oxygen transport function was studied in order to evaluate adaptive changes in shunt hypoxemia and to investigate the in vivo regulation of erythrocyte 2, 3-diphosphoglycerate concentration (RBC 2, 3-DPG) in the presence of fetal hemoglobin (HbF). Arterial pO2 and oxygen content, oxygen capacity, acid base status, oxygen affinity, HbF fraction, plasma pH, red cell pH, and RBC 2, 3-DPG were determined. During the first 50 days of life values of standard P50 (stdP50) (37, pH 7.4), actual in vivo P50 (actP50), RBC 2, 3-DPG, O2 capacity, arterial plasma pH, and red cell pH were scattered around the normal range, although tending to low values for stdP50 and arterial plasma pH and to high values for O2 capacity. After the third month, stdP50 actP50, RBC 2, 3-DPG, O2 capacity, and red cell pH were found to be elevated. Plasma pH and actP50 were scattered around the normal range (Figs. 1 and 2). Intraerythrocytic pH in hypoxemic infants was increased compared with normal children when related to plasma pH (Fig. 3). A close to normal intraerythrocytic pH was therefore found in the hypoxemic infants with low plasma pH, and an increased intraerythrocytic pH in the hypoxemic children with normal plasma pH (Fig. 1). A significant negative correlation exists between erythrocyte H+ ion and 2, 3-DPG concentration (Fig. 5); regression constants derived from data at high (mean 47%) and low (mean 9%) fractions of HbF are not significantly different (Regression Equations 8 and 11 in Table 1). Thus, the known difference in 2, 3-DPG binding to fetal or adult deoxyhemoglobin does not measurably influence the erythrocyte 2, 3-DPG concentration, indicating that in vivo the 2, 3-DPG synthesis in hypoxia is virtually regulated by the erythrocyte pH, which in turn is determined by plasma pH and the oxygenation state of hemoglobin.
