Mitochondrial electron transport chain complex dysfunction in the colonic mucosa in ulcerative colitis.
BACKGROUND Ulcerative colitis (UC) is characterized by an energy deficiency state of the colonic epithelium. This study evaluated mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) complex activity in normal and disease mucosa in patients with UC. Alterations in ETC complexes were also investigated in experimental colitis in mice. METHODS Biopsies were obtained from macroscopically normal and disea...
متن کاملChromophore-Assisted Light Inactivation of Mitochondrial Electron Transport Chain Complex II in Caenorhabditis elegans
Mitochondria play critical roles in meeting cellular energy demand, in cell death, and in reactive oxygen species (ROS) and stress signaling. Most Caenorhabditis elegans loss-of-function (lf) mutants in nuclear-encoded components of the respiratory chain are non-viable, emphasizing the importance of respiratory function. Chromophore-Assisted Light Inactivation (CALI) using genetically-encoded p...
متن کاملChanges in mitochondrial electron transport chain activity during insect metamorphosis.
The midgut of the tobacco hornworm (Manduca sexta) is a highly aerobic tissue that is destroyed by programmed cell death during larval-pupal metamorphosis. The death of the epithelium begins after commitment to pupation, and the oxygen consumption of isolated midgut mitochondria decreases soon after commitment. To assess the role of the electron transport chain in this decline in mitochondrial ...
متن کاملInhibition of complex I of the electron transport chain causes O2-. -mediated mitochondrial outgrowth.
Recent evidence indicates that oxidative stress is central to the pathogenesis of a wide variety of degenerative diseases, aging, and cancer. Oxidative stress occurs when the delicate balance between production and detoxification of reactive oxygen species is disturbed. Mammalian cells respond to this condition in several ways, among which is a change in mitochondrial morphology. In the present...
متن کاملIromycins from Streptomyces sp. and from synthesis: new inhibitors of the mitochondrial electron transport chain.
Two new alpha-pyridone metabolites, iromycins E and F, were isolated from cultures of strain Streptomyces sp. Dra 17, thus expanding the recently discovered iromycin family. The inhibitory potential on the mitochondrial respiratory chain was examined and revealed that iromycin metabolites block NADH oxidation in beef heart submitochondrial particles with different efficacy, yet remarkably show ...
