On the interactions of Ca2+ and cyclosporin A with a mitochondrial inner membrane pore: a study using cobaltammine complex inhibitors of the Ca2+ uniporter.
The mitochondrial inner membrane contains a Ca(2+)-activated pore of possible relevance to the pathogenesis of ischaemia/reperfusion injury which is inhibited by the immunosuppressant cyclosporin A (CSA). The present study employs a number of novel cobaltammine complex inhibitors of the Ca2+ uniporter (mediating Ca2+ uptake) to examine whether intramitochondrial Ca2+ influences the capacity of ...
متن کاملModulation of Ca2+ efflux from heart mitochondria.
The efflux of Ca2+ from rat heart mitochondria has been examined by using Ruthenium Red to inhibit active uptake after predetermined loadings with Ca2+. The efflux is proportional to the internal Ca2+ load; it is increased by Na+ applied when the mitochondria are respiring and this effect is inhibited by oligomycin. The efflux of Ca2+ is diminished by ATP and by ADP, with the latter the more ef...

Apoptosis is an active process that plays a key role in many physiological and pathological conditions. One of the most important organelles involved in apoptosis regulation is the mitochondrion. An increase in intracellular Ca(2+) is a general mechanism of toxicity in neurons which occurs in response to different noxious stimuli like excitotoxicity and ischemia producing apoptotic and necrotic...
متن کاملCyclosporin A is a potent inhibitor of the inner membrane permeability transition in liver mitochondria.
The immunosuppressive peptide cyclosporin A is a powerful inhibitor of the Ca2+-dependent permeability transition in rat liver mitochondria. When swelling is used to monitor the transition, the inhibitor is effective regardless of whether N-ethylmaleimide, Hg2+, WY-14643, t-butyl hydroperoxide, oxalacetate, rhein, phosphate, phosphoenolpyruvate, or ruthenium red plus uncoupler is used as the in...
متن کاملModulation of the Mitochondrial Cyclosporin A - sensitive Permeability Transition Pore
This paper reports an investigation on the minimal requirements for induction of the mitochondrial cyclosporin A-sensitive permeability transition pore (MTP). Energized rat liver mitochondria incubated in sucrose medium take up a Ca2+ pulse but do not show activation of the MTP upon addition of fully uncoupling concentrations of carbonyl cyanide-p-trifluoromethoxyphenyl hydrazone (FCCP). Yet, a...
