Environmental stresses converge on the mitochondria that can trigger or inhibit cell death. Excitable, postmitotic cells, in response to sublethal noxious stress, engage mechanisms that afford protection from subsequent insults. We show that reoxygenation after prolonged hypoxia reduces the reactive oxygen species (ROS) threshold for the mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) in cardiomyoc...
Mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium (mitoK(ATP)) channels play a key role in ischemic preconditioning of the heart. However, the mechanism of cardioprotection remains controversial. We measured rhod-2 fluorescence in adult rabbit ventricular cardiomyocytes as an index of mitochondrial matrix Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](m)), using time-lapse confocal microscopy. To simulate ischemia and rep...
Mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium (mitoKATP) channels play a key role in ischemic preconditioning of the heart. However, the mechanism of cardioprotection remains controversial. We measured rhod-2 fluorescence in adult rabbit ventricular cardiomyocytes as an index of mitochondrial matrix Ca concentration ([Ca ]m), using time-lapse confocal microscopy. To simulate ischemia and reperfusion (I...
The mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) is implicated in cardiac reperfusion/reoxygenation injury. In isolated ventricular myocytes, the sulfhydryl (SH) group modifier and MPT inducer phenylarsine oxide (PAO) caused MPT, severe hypercontracture, and irreversible membrane injury associated with increased cytoplasmic free [Ca(2+)]. Removal of extracellular Ca(2+) or depletion of nonmitoch...
Induction of mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) and cytosolic translocation of cytochrome C are considered essential components of the apoptotic pathway. Hence, there is the realization that mitochondrial-specific drugs could have potential for use as chemotherapeutic agents to trigger apoptosis in tumor cells. Recently, we showed that photoproducts of merocyanine 540 (pMC540) induced ...
Mitochondrial permeability transition (mPT) is a crucial event in the progression to cell death in the setting of ischemia-reperfusion. We have used a model system in which mPT can be reliably and reproducibly induced to test the hypothesis that the profound protection associated with the phenomenon of myocardial preconditioning is mediated by suppression of the mPT. Adult rat myocytes were loa...
N-Alkyl perfluorooctane sulfonamides have been widely used as surfactants on fabrics and papers, fire retardants, and anticorrosion agents, among many other commercial applications. The broad use, global distribution, and environmental persistence of these compounds has generated considerable interest regarding potentially toxic effects. We have previously reported that perfluorooctanesulfonami...
Acetaminophen induces the mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) in hepatocytes. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) trigger the MPT and play an important role in AAP-induced hepatocellular injury. Because iron is a catalyst for ROS formation, our aim was to investigate the role of chelatable iron in MPT-dependent acetaminophen toxicity to mouse hepatocytes. Hepatocytes were isolated from fasted...
Chenodeoxycholate (CDCA) is a primary bile acid mostly implicated in cholestatic liver injury. In this study, we have investigated the involvement of membrane fluidity and cytochrome c release in CDCA-induced mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT), and the preventive role of carvedilol. Treatment of calcium-loaded hepatic mitochondria with CDCA was found to cause osmotic swelling and relea...
Chronic ethanol consumption increases sensitivity of the mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) pore induction in liver. Ca(2+) promotes MPT pore opening, and genetic ablation of cyclophilin D (CypD) increases the Ca(2+) threshold for the MPT. We used wild-type (WT) and CypD-null (CypD(-/-)) mice fed a control or an ethanol-containing diet to investigate the role of the MPT in ethanol-medi...
