The cardiac Na+ pump (Na+ -K+ -ATPase) provides the driving force for the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger, a determinant of intracellular Ca2+ stores. Three Na+ pump alpha-catalytic subunit isoforms are expressed in human heart, alpha1 and alpha2 are expressed in rat heart, and only alpha1 is expressed in guinea pig heart. The objective of this study was to determine whether there are isoform-specific patterns of expression in the transverse tubules (T tubules) vs. the peripheral sarcolemma. In adult rat cardiomyocytes, anti-alpha1-specific antibodies labeled the T tubules more intensely than the peripheral sarcolemma, in which labeling was patchy, the same pattern reported for distribution of the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (J. S. Frank, G. Mottino, D. Reid, R. S. Molday, and K. D. Philipson, J. Cell Biol. 117: 337-345, 1992), whereas anti-alpha2- and anti-beta1-antibodies uniformly labeled T tubules and peripheral sarcolemma. In guinea pig cardiomyocytes, an anti-alpha-antibody against an extracellular epitope evenly labeled the peripheral sarcolemma and T tubules, and immunogold labeling demonstrated coincidence of alpha-subunits and intramembranous particles in sarcolemma. In summary, Na+ pumps are located in both peripheral sarcolemma and T tubules of cardiomyocytes expressing either multiple or single Na+ pump isoforms.
