Protective Role of Apigenin Against Aβ 25-35 Toxicity Via Inhibition of Mitochondrial Cytochrome c Release
Introduction: Cognitive dysfunction is the most common problem of patients with Alzheimer disease (AD). The pathological mechanism of cognitive impairment in AD may contribute to neuronal loss, synaptic dysfunction, and alteration in neurotransmitters receptors. Mitochondrial synapses dysfunction due to the accumulation of amyloid beta (Aβ) is one of the earliest pathological features of AD. Th...
متن کاملProkaryotic models for mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase.
992 Introduction Cytochrome c oxidase is a fascinating enzyme that has attracted the attention of numerous researchers over the past two decades [ 1-61. The enzyme catalyses the one-electron oxidation of cytochrome c and the four-electron reduction of molecular oxygen to water. In doing so, the enzyme electrogenically pumps protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane, thus generating a tran...
متن کاملCardiac mitochondrial cGMP stimulates cytochrome c release.
Although the existence of cardiac mitochondrial cGMP has been reported previously [Kimura and Murad (1974) J. Biol. Chem. 249, 6910-6916], the physiological and pathophysiological properties of cGMP in cardiac mitochondria have remained unknown. The aim of the present study was to clarify whether cardiac mitochondrial cGMP regulates the apoptosis of cardiomyocytes. In the presence of GTP, the N...
متن کاملOxidation of ferrocytochrome c by mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase.
Attempts to rationalize the kinetics of cytochrome c oxidation catalyzed by solubilized mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase (ferrocytochrome c:oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.9.3.1) have been based on assumptions of productive complex formation (Michaelis-Menten approach). However, the range of substrate concentrations used has not, in general, been sufficient to establish a general rate equation. D...
متن کاملMitochondrial respiration at low levels of oxygen and cytochrome c.
In the intracellular microenvironment of active muscle tissue, high rates of respiration are maintained at near-limiting oxygen concentrations. The respiration of isolated heart mitochondria is a hyperbolic function of oxygen concentration and half-maximal rates were obtained at 0.4 and 0.7 microM O(2) with substrates for the respiratory chain (succinate) and cytochrome c oxidase [N,N,N,N',N'-t...
