The changes in membrane permeability to small molecules caused by Sendai virus were further characterized. The uptake of substances that are concentrated within [mouse carcinoma Lettree] cells is inhibited. Choline and 2-deoxyglucose, which become phosphorylated, and aminoisobutyrate and glycine, which are driven by a Na+-linked mechanism, are examples. The uptake of each compound under conditions where its diffusion across the plasma membrane is rate-limiting is stimulated by virus. Choline, 2-deoxyglucose and amino acids at high concentration, amino acids in Na+-free medium and most substances at low temperature are examples. Virally mediated decrease of uptake is apparently due to 1 of 2 causes. Substances that are accumulated by phosphorylation are not retained because of leakage of the phosphorylated metabolites out of cells. Substances that are accumulated by linkage to a Na+ gradient are no longer accumulated because of collapse of the gradient resulting from an increased permeability to Na+. Increased permeability to K+ and Na+ results in membrane depolarization and cell swelling. The latter event leads to hemolysis (for erythrocytes) and can lead to giant-cell (polykaryon) formation (for several cell types). Recovery of cells can be temporarily achieved by the addition of Ca2+; permanent recovery requires incubation for some hours at 37.degree. C. The possible significance of virally mediated permeability changes, with regard to clinical situations and to cell biology, is discussed.
