Biosensor plates detect mitochondrial physiological regulators and mutations in vivo.

چکیده
The measurement of mitochondrial activity in living cells is usually not straightforward, even though it is quite important in physiological and pathophysiological processes. We describe a high-throughput method for measurement of mitochondrial oxygen consumption in living cells, based on the Becton-Dickinson Biosensor plates.

Mitochondrial Genetic Variation in Iranian Infertile Men with Varicocele
Objective Several recent studies have shown that mitochondrial DNA mutations lead to major disabilities and premature death in carriers. More than 150 mutations in human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) genes have been associated with a wide spectrum of disorders. Varicocele, one of the causes of infertility in men wherein abnormal inflexion and distension of veins of the pampiniform plexus is observe...
متن کاملNeuroprotective Effect of Mitochondrial Katp Channel Opener Upon Neuronal Cortical Brain of Rat Population
Purpose: So far there is no effective drug therapy to prevent neuronal loss after brain stroke. In the present study we studied effects of The Mitochondrial K-ATP channel regulators on neuronal cell population and neurological function after ischemia reperfusion in the rat. Materials and Methods: Rats temporarily subjected to four vessels occlusion for 15 minutes followed by 24 hours reperfusi...
متن کاملبررسی فراوانی جهش های DNA میتوکندریایی در دیابت نوع دو
Background: Mitochondria is one of the intracellular organelle with specific DNA. Some diseases caused by mtDNA mutations have been reported up to now. Mutation of A3243G and deletion of 5kb are two of them that related to Diabetes type II. The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of A3243G mutation and 5kb mt DNA deletion in type II diabetic patients.Methods: The DNA extracted from...
متن کاملLack of Association of Mitochondrial A3243G tRNALeu Mutation in Iranian Patients with Type 2 Diabetes
Many kinds of mutations in mitochondrial (mt) DNA have been reported to be related to the development of Diabetes Mellitus (DM), this type of diabetes has also been shown to be influenced by other genetic factors and/or environmental factors. Among them, tRNALeu(UUR) and its adjacent mtDNA NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1(ND1) region within the mt genome are linked to high susceptibility to DM. A p...
متن کاملThe mitochondrial DNA mutations associated with cardiac arrhythmia investigated in an LQTS family
Objective(s): As mitochondrial oxidative stress is probably entailed in ATP production, a candidate modifier factor for the long QT syndrome (LQTS) could be mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). It has been notified that ion channels' activities in cardiomyocytes are sensitive to the ATP level. Materials and Methods: The sample of the research was an Iranian family with LQTS for mutations by PCR-SSCP and...
