In durum wheat mitochondria (DWM) the ATP-inhibited plant mitochondrial potassium channel (PmitoK(ATP)) and the plant uncoupling protein (PUCP) are able to strongly reduce the proton motive force (pmf) to control mitochondrial production of reactive oxygen species; under these conditions, mitochondrial carriers lack the driving force for transport and should be inactive. However, unexpectedly, ...
Carvedilol (¿1-[carbazolyl-(4)-oxy]-3-[2-methoxyphenoxyethyl)amino]-pro panol-(2) ¿) is a novel compound used in clinical practice for the treatment of congestive heart failure, mild to moderate hypertension, and myocardial infarction. Carvedilol was also shown to protect cardiac mitochondria from oxidative stress events. Because mitochondria are the main suppliers of ATP for cardiac muscle wor...
The proton-pumping NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase, also called complex I, is the first of the respiratory complexes providing the proton motive force which is essential for energy consuming processes like the synthesis of ATP. Homologues of this complex exist in bacteria, archaea, in mitochondria of eukaryotes and in chloroplasts of plants. The bacterial and mitochondrial complexes function as ...
PURPOSE Molecular mechanisms underlying hyperthermia-induced cellular injury are not fully understood. The aim of this study was to identify the components of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation affected by mild hyperthermia and to quantify the contribution of each component to changes in system behaviour. METHODS Temperature effects on the oxidative phosphorylation in isolated rat-heart ...
Proinflammatory cytokines differentially regulate adipocyte mitochondrial metabolism, oxidative stress, and dynamics. Macrophage infiltration of adipose tissue and the chronic low-grade production of inflammatory cytokines have been mechanistically linked to the development of insulin resistance, the forerunner of type 2 diabetes mellitus. In this study, we evaluated the chronic effects of TNFα...
Muscle dysfunction is a common feature of severe sepsis and multiorgan failure. Recent evidence implicates bioenergetic dysfunction and oxidative damage as important underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. Increased abundance of uncoupling protein-3 (UCP3) in sepsis suggests increased mitochondrial proton leak, which may reduce mitochondrial coupling efficiency but limit reactive oxygen speci...
We examined the effect of a single injection of 3,5-di-iodo-L-thyronine (3,5-T2) (150 microg/100 g body weight) on the rat liver mitochondrial energy-transduction apparatus. We applied 'top-down' elasticity analysis, which allows identification of the site of action of an effector within a metabolic pathway. This kinetic approach considers oxidative phosphorylation as two blocks of reactions: t...
A possible link between skeletal muscle mitochondrial efficiency and age-induced insulin resistance.
The transition from young to adult age is associated with decreased insulin sensitivity. To investigate whether changes in skeletal muscle mitochondrial function could be involved in the development of insulin resistance, we measured the oxidative capacity and energetic efficiency of subsarcolemmal and intermyofibrillar mitochondria isolated from the skeletal muscle of 60- and 180-day-old rats....
OBJECTIVE Hyperlipidemia-induced endothelial cell (EC) activation is considered as an initial event responsible for monocyte recruitment in atherogenesis. However, it remains poorly defined what is the mechanism underlying hyperlipidemia-induced EC activation. Here, we tested a novel hypothesis that mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS) serve as signaling mediators for EC activation in ...
Key Words: uncoupling proteins Ⅲ mitochondrion Ⅲ peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor Ⅲ oxidative stress Ⅲ blood pressure L iving organisms possess a variety of physiological protective mechanisms to counteract oxidative stress and to restore redox balance. Oxidative damage to cells that results from an imbalance of production over degradation of the reactive oxygen species (ROS), particu...
