Ouabain in plasma from spontaneously hypertensive rats
Ouabain has recently been identified in mammalian plasma with an apparent adrenocortical origin. The objectives of the present study were to determine whether boiled plasma supernatants (BPS) from spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) contained elevated

Stabilisation of Na,K-ATPase structure by the cardiotonic steroid ouabain [PDF]
Cardiotonic steroids such as ouabain bind with high affinity to the membrane-bound cation-transporting P-type Na,K-ATPase, leading to complete inhibition of the enzyme.

Ouabain Modulates Zymosan-Induced Peritonitis in Mice
Ouabain, a potent inhibitor of the Na+, K+-ATPase, was identified as an endogenous substance. Recently, ouabain was shown to affect various immunological processes.

In this brief article, we summarize recent reports about endogenous ouabain (EO), a cardiotonic steroid hormone. This includes analysis of mammalian EO, the discovery of EO isomers, regulation of intracellular signaling by EO, and the roles of EO in hypertension, pregnancy, and heart and kidney diseases.

Endogenous ouabain regulates cell viability
The endogenous cardiac steroid-like compounds, endogenous ouabain (EO) in particular, are present in the human circulation and are considered putative ligands of the inhibitory binding site of the plasma membrane Na+-K+-ATPase.

We investigated the effects of low ouabain concentrations on systolic (SAP) and diastolic (DAP) arterial pressures and on pressor reactivity in 3-month-old male spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Arterial blood pressure (BP) and pressor reactivity to

Discovery of Ro 41‐0960, a Non‐Steroidal Inhibitor of the Na+/K+‐ATPase
Ro 41‐0960 is a non‐steroidal Na+/K+‐ATPase inhibitor with low micromolar potency and a mixed inhibitory mechanism distinct from classical cardiotonic steroids, without acute pro‐arrhythmic effects in human cardiomyocytes. The Na+/K+‐ATPase (NKA) is a central regulator of cardiac ion homeostasis and a validated target for heart failure.

ABSTRACT Background Cellular senescence influences cancer progression through irreversible cell‐cycle arrest, immune surveillance, and paracrine signaling mediated by the senescence‐associated secretory phenotype (SASP). SASP comprises inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, growth factors, and matrix‐remodeling enzymes that regulate the tumor ...

Modulation of TNF‐α mRNA stability by human antigen R and miR181s in sepsis‐induced immunoparalysis
Immunoparalysis is an important pathological mechanism in sepsis. However, an effective small molecule therapy is lacking. Here, we show that ouabain, a Na+,K+‐ATPase ligand, can reverse immunoparalysis in vitro, in vivo, and in clinical samples. Notably,
