An inhibitor of ouabain-insensitive sodium/sodium exchange in erythrocytes has been isolated from leukemic promyelocytes. To explore the specific effects of this inhibitor, named inhibitin, sodium transport experiments were carried out in human erythrocytes. Inhibitin reduced ouabain-insensitive bidirectional sodium transport. It did not change net sodium fluxes, had no significant effect on rubidium influx, and did not inhibit sodium-potassium-ATPase activity. The inhibitory effect of inhibitin was studied on sodium/sodium exchange and on sodium/lithium countertransport in 140 mM sodium and in sodium-free media. In the presence of sodium, inhibitin reduced sodium and lithium efflux to that observed in sodium-free medium. Inhibitin showed no reduction in sodium or lithium efflux when sodium was replaced by choline chloride or Mg2+. When inhibitin was combined with one or more of the other transport inhibitors (i.e., ouabain, furosemide, or bumetanide and amiloride), its inhibitable component remained distinct and it did not overlap with that of the other inhibitors. These studies show that inhibitin is a specific inhibitor of carrier-mediated sodium/sodium exchange and sodium/lithium countertransport processes in human erythrocytes.
