Oxygen sensitivity of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species generation depends on metabolic conditions.
The mitochondrial generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays a central role in many cell signaling pathways, but debate still surrounds its regulation by factors, such as substrate availability, [O2] and metabolic state. Previously, we showed that in isolated mitochondria respiring on succinate, ROS generation was a hyperbolic function of [O2]. In the current study, we used a wide variet...
متن کاملReactive Oxygen Species Generation by Lunar Simulants
Introduction: The current interest in human exploration of the Moon and past experiences of Apollo astronauts has rekindled research into the harmful effects of Lunar dust on human health. While the mineralogical composition of lunar regolith has been well documented, other factors, such as partial melting due to space weathering, UV irradiation, and dryness may also contribute to the toxicity ...
متن کاملCuscuta campestris induces apoptosis by increasing reactive oxygen species generation in human leukemic cells
Objective: Cuscuta campestris or common dodder is a holoparasitic plant that has been valorized for treatment of liver injury and cancer prevention in traditional medicine. Recently, extract of C. campestris had shown moderate antimicrobial properties and cytotoxic effects. In this study, we examined the level of cellular oxidants, cytotoxicity, apoptosis and differentiation induced by hydr...

Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 291: C1082–C1088, 2006; doi:10.1152/ajpcell.00217.2006.—Mitochondria are an important source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) formed as a side product of oxidative phosphorylation. The main sites of oxidant production are compl...
متن کاملMitochondrial metabolism of reactive oxygen species.
For a long time mitochondria have mainly been considered for their role in the aerobic energy production in eukaryotic cells, being the sites of the oxidative phosphorylation, which couples the electron transfer from respiratory substrates to oxygen with the ATP synthesis. Subsequently, it was showed that electron transfer along mitochondrial respiratory chain also leads to the formation of rad...
