Recent evidence suggests that in plants, as in vertebrates, natriuretic peptides (NPs) regulate homeostasis. In this study noninvasive ion-selective vibrating microelectrodes were used to measure net fluxes of K+, Na+, and H+ in Zea mays root conductive tissue. Immunoreactant plant natriuretic peptides (irPNP) cause immediate net H+ influx and delayed net K+ and Na+ uptake. Delayed net K+ influx was also observed in response to 8-Br-cGMP, however, not accompanied by significant changes in net H+ fluxes. Furthermore, 8-Br-cGMP does not stimulate the plasma membrane H+-ATPase implying that cGMP directly affects cation channels. The data are consistent with NP and cGMP-dependent stimulation of nonselective cation channels with P(K) > P(Na) and point to a complex role for NPs in plant homeostasis.
最近的证据表明,在植物中,与脊椎动物一样,利钠肽(NP)调节体内平衡。在本研究中,使用非侵入性离子选择性振动微电极测量玉米根传导组织中K⁺、Na⁺和H⁺的净通量。免疫反应性植物利钠肽(irPNP)导致立即的净H⁺内流以及延迟的净K⁺和Na⁺摄取。响应8-溴-cGMP也观察到延迟的净K⁺内流,然而,净H⁺通量没有显著变化。此外,8-溴-cGMP不刺激质膜H⁺-ATP酶,这意味着cGMP直接影响阳离子通道。这些数据与NP和cGMP依赖的对P(K)>P(Na)的非选择性阳离子通道的刺激一致,并指出NP在植物体内平衡中具有复杂的作用。
