    Abstract

    The present study examines the hypothesis that during depletion of high- energy phosphates a change will occur in the phospholipid topology and in Ca fluxes in cultured neonatal cells and that these two events may be causally related. A combination of 2-deoxyglucose and iodoacetic acid was used to produce graded changes in the adenine nucleotides in the cells. An on-line technique for 45Ca measurement was used to follow Ca uptake and compartmentation by the cells, and chemical and enzymatic probes were used to study sarcolemmal phospholipid topology. After 5 min of metabolic inhibition (ATP = 10% of control) an increase in cellular Ca occurs, which progresses with time. Over 70% of this Ca accumulates in the mitochondria. After 30 min of metabolic inhibition (ATP
