The mitochondrial permeability transition pore.
This chapter reviews recent advances in the identification of the structural elements of the permeability transition pore. The discovery that cyclosporin A (CsA) inhibits the pore proved instrumental. Various approaches indicate that CsA blocks the pore by binding to cyclophilin (CyP)-D. In particular, covalent labelling of CyP-D in situ by a photoactive CsA derivative has shown that pore ligan...
متن کاملMitochondrial permeability transition pore and postconditioning.
Postconditioning has recently been described as a powerful cardioprotection that prevents lethal reperfusion injury. Growing evidence suggests that mitochondrial permeability transition may be a key event in postconditioning. This proposition arises from the complementary observations that: (1) conditions for the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) opening are built up during earl...
متن کاملMitochondrial permeability transition pore: an enigmatic gatekeeper
Mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) is a transient structure formed in the inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM) upon oxidative challenge of the organelle. The transition is a Ca 2+ -dependent increase of permeability of IMM leading to loss of transmembrane potential (∆ψm), mitochondrial swelling and, finally, rupture of outer mitochondrial membrane leading to release of factors caus...
متن کاملDiazoxide opens the mitochondrial permeability transition pore and alters Ca2+ transients in rat ventricular myocytes.
BACKGROUND The mitochondrial K(ATP) channel (mitoK(ATP)) has been implicated as an end effector or trigger of ischemic preconditioning (IP). Although a mitoK(ATP) opener, diazoxide, mimics IP, mechanisms for the cardioprotective action remain unclear. METHODS AND RESULTS We measured Ca2+ transients (CaTs) and mitochondrial inner membrane potential (Deltapsi(m)) with confocal microscopy and th...
متن کاملThe Mitochondrial Permeability Transition Pore and ATP Synthase
Mitochondrial ATP generation by oxidative phosphorylation combines the stepwise oxidation by the electron transport chain (ETC) of the reducing equivalents NADH and FADH2 with the generation of ATP by the ATP synthase. Recent studies show that the ATP synthase is not only essential for the generation of ATP but may also contribute to the formation of the mitochondrial permeability transition po...
