A comparison of mitochondria isolated from 2 and 24 C grown winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and winter rye (Secale cereale L.) seedlings revealed no correlation between changes in swelling and contraction characteristics and extent of cold hardiness. The swelling response changed markedly due to growth at low temperature, but the change was similar for the four cultivars examined. The swelling response was also observed to change rapidly during aging of isolated mitochondria, either at 2 or 24 C. Spontaneously swollen mitochondria, isolated from 24 C grown seedlings, contracted abruptly upon addition of certain oxidizable substrates, but this response was lost when seedlings were transferred from 24 to 2 C. Studies on the effect of various substrates and respiratory inhibitors on the swelling and contraction responses indicate that inhibitors which reduce or stop electron flow through the electron transport chain also inhibit substrate induced mitochondrial contraction. 相似文献

Mitochondria isolated from 3-day-old etiolated corn shoots (Zea mays L.) can be categorized into three separate groups, each group characteristic of the cell type from which the mitochondria were isolated. Phloem sieve tubes and some adjacent parenchyma cells contain mitochondria that have few cristae and little amorphous matrix. Mitochondria from meristematic and undifferentiated cells have more cristae and matrix. Vaculate and differentiated cells have mitochondria with well-developed cristae and abundant matrix. Each mitochondrial type exhibits typical in vitro spontaneous swelling and substrate-induced contraction responses. characterized by change or lack of change in cristae size and in density of amorphous material. For the second and third types of mitochondria, swelling and contraction are characterized by a change in degree of cristae size and in matrix density. The first type undergoes few changes upon swelling or contraction. Radical changes of the inner membrane, withdrawal and infolding, are associated with cell differentiation and not with swelling and contraction of isolated corn shoot mitochondria. 相似文献

Summary The structural changes of isolated beef-heart mitochondria undergoing hypotonic swelling and ATP-induced contraction are described. During swelling the mitochondria take up water, the matrix space enlarges, the inner membrane becomes greatly extended with material which is apparently derived from the cristae (the rest of which fragment) and the outer membrane is ruptured. On addition of ATP, Mn++ and Ca++ water is extruded as the extended inner membrane contracts around the remnants of the cristae to give compact bundles of vesicles which bear little resemblance to the original organized structure.On leave of absence from Agricultural Research Council Institute of Animal Physiology, Babraham, Cambridge, England. 相似文献

The internal structure of mitochondria 总被引:24,自引:0,他引:24
Electron microscopic (EM) tomography is providing important new insights into the internal organization of mitochondria. The standard baffle model for cristae structure, called into question years ago, has now clearly been shown to be inaccurate. Depending on source and conformational state, cristae can vary from simple tubular structures to more complex lamellar structures merging with the inner boundary membrane through tubular structures 28 nm in diameter. The structural information provided by EM tomography has important implications for mitochondrial bioenergetics, biogenesis and the role of mitochondria in apoptosis. The structural paradigm defined by EM tomography is helping in the design of new experimental approaches to mitochondrial function. 相似文献

Catalase activity of the methanol-assimilating yeast Candida boidinii M-363 was determined cytochemically and biochemically. Electron microscopic investigations on ultrathin sections were made on cells from 16, 24, and 48h batch cultures in nutrient medium with methanol (or glucose as a control) as the sole source of carbon and energy. The electron-dense oxidation product of 3,3′-diaminobenzidine was found predominantly in the mitochondrial cristae and membranes. The mitochondria were increased in number, enlarged, sometimes aggregated, with variable form and size and they characteristically developed when the strain was grown on methanol. The significant development of these organelles and their intensive DAB staining correlated with the considerable increase in catalase activity. Biochemically, catalase in the cell-free extract was determined to be maximal along the exponential growth phase of the strain during its incubation on methanol. Enzyme analysis of the heavy mitochondrial fraction showed that it possessed catalase activity but not peroxidase activity. The results showed that not only peroxisomes but also mitochondria may be structurally and functionally responsible for the high catalase activity of some methanol-assimilating yeasts. What is more, the contribution of the mitochondria to the utilization of methanol may be significant. 相似文献

Mitochondria isolated from rat liver and heart were made permeable to normally nonpentrating substrates and cofactors by treatment with toluene. The optimal conditions for preparing stable, permeable mitochondria were 2% toluene for 2 min at 4 °C in a buffered, isotonic medium containing 8.5% polyethylene glycol (Mr 6000–7500). Without polyethylene glycol, the toluene-treated mitochondria were unstable and released their matrix enzymes. The treated mitochondria were particularly unstable in dilute suspension under normal assay conditions of their enzyme activities. The levels of matrix enzyme activities unmasked by toluene treatment of mitochondria were very close to those of sonicated mitochondria under identical assay conditions. Mitochondria made permeable with toluene lost only small amounts of their protein and retained a major fraction of the nucleotides and coenzymes. Electron microscopic examination of toluenetreated mitochondria indicated that they were relatively intact with swollen and vesiculated cristae membranes. Such preparations will allow the study of mitochondrial enzymes at approximate in vivo concentrations. 相似文献

Approximately 40% of the mitochondria in the sphincter muscle of the crayfish vas deferens have prismatic-type cristae. In cross section, the angular cristae have either triangular or rhomboid profiles which are surrounded by a hexagonal array of electron-dense dots. In longitudinal section, these mitochondria exhibit both thick and thin parallel lines, which represent cristae and filaments, respectively. It is postulated that the matrix of the prismatic-type mitochondria is packed with rodlets composed of an electron-dense core and a less dense shell. Close packing of these rodlets results in the regular hexagonal dot array. Deletion of fascicles of 3 or 4 rodlets results in spaces with triangular or rectangular cross sections. Lining of these spaces with membranes results in cristae with triangular or rhomboid cross sections. 相似文献

Cadmium (Cd2+) is one of the most toxic heavy metal pollutants in nature. Mesophyll cells from the leaf of radish seedlings exposed to 0.25 and 1.0 mM of CdCl2 during 24 h exhibited structural changes of chloroplasts, mitochondria and nuclei when compared to non-treated control plants. Chloroplasts from Cd2+-exposed samples exhibited changes in the organelle shape, an increase in the stroma volume and a deposition of electron-dense material in the double membrane. The changes in the chloroplast membranes were not very drastic, however and reorganization of the thylakoids and stroma was observed. In contrast, the breakdown of the nuclear envelope of the plant cells treated with Cd2+ was very clear. The accumulation of electron-dense granules was also observed in mitochondria. No alterations were observed in the vacuoles of radish seedlings grown at different Cd2+ concentrations for the periods tested. 相似文献

Summary In the posterior drum muscle of the piranha structural alterations are frequently observed. Electron microscopic studies revealed a disordering of the myofibrils in these regions, accompanied by conspicuous changes in the mitochondria. As the degree of disorder increases, the mitochondrial cristae initially swell to form vesicles. Eventually the mitochondria become filled with myelin-like lamellar structures, which in many cases coalesce to form a dense outer wall. A striking concentration of lysosomes into localized masses was also characteristic of these regions. 相似文献

Mitochondria undergo dynamic structural alterations to meet changing needs and to maintain homeostasis. We report here a novel mitochondrial structure. Conventional transmission electron microscopic examination of murine embryonic fibroblasts treated with carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP), a mitochondrial uncoupler, found that more than half of the mitochondria presented a ring-shaped or C-shaped morphology. Many of these mitochondria seemed to have engulfed various cytosolic components. Serial sections through individual mitochondria indicated that they formed a ball-like structure with an internal lumen surrounded by the membranes and containing cytosolic materials. Notably, the lumen was connected to the external cytoplasm through a small opening. Electron tomographic reconstruction of the mitochondrial spheroids demonstrated the membrane topology and confirmed the vesicular configuration of this mitochondrial structure. The outside periphery and the lumen were defined by the outer membranes, which were lined with the inner membranes. Matrix and cristae were retained but distributed unevenly with less being kept near the luminal opening. Mitochondrial spheroids seem to form in response to oxidative mitochondrial damage independently of mitophagy. The structural features of the mitochondrial spheroids thus represent a novel mitochondrial dynamics. 相似文献

Mitochondrial swelling induced by valinomycin, calcium chloride and P(i) was studied after potassium permanganate fixation in suspension. Valinomycin induces a rapid K(+) influx, increase of the matrix space and out-folding of the cristae, with good preservation of the matrix material. This swelling is reversible but the cristae do not completely re-form and have a blebbed appearance. On repeated swelling and contraction cycles there is a gradual loss of matrix material. Calcium chloride and P(i) produce a slow swelling of the matrix space. Shrinkage induced by ATP was partial and not associated with return to the original structure. 相似文献

Electron microscopic study of femoral arteries of white rats exposed to prolonged general vibration at a frequency of 100 Hz with an amplitude of 0.5-0.7 mm has been performed. Light and dark smooth muscle cells, as well as unchanged cells have been found in the vascular media of experimental animals. Light cells are swollen with destroyed myofilaments and great number of microtubules in cytoplasm. Dark cells are characterized by coagulation necrosis and melting of myofilaments. Vibration was shown to cause marked structural changes in smooth muscle cells mitochondria: destruction of internal and external membranes, increasing matrix osmophilia or swelling of mitochondria accompanied by crista fragmentation, as well as matrix clarification and disappearance. Morphometric analysis indicates a considerably decreased energy production by smooth muscle cell mitochondria. It has been concluded that vibrations have a damaging effect on medial smooth muscle cells of the femoral artery in the experimental animals. 相似文献

H9c2 undergoing cardiac differentiation induced by all-trans-retinoic acid were investigated for mitochondria structural features together with the implied functional changes, as a model for the study of mitochondrial development in cardiogenic progenitor cells. As the expression of cardiac markers became detectable, mitochondrial mass increased and mitochondrial morphology and ultrastructure changed. Reticular network organization developed and more bulky mitochondria with greater numbers of closely packed cristae and more electron-dense matrix were detected. Increased expression of PGC-1α proved the occurrence of mitochondrial biogenesis. Improvements in mitochondrial energetic competence were also documented, linked to better assembly between F(0) and F(1) sectors of the F(0)F(1)ATPsynthase enzyme complex. 相似文献

The effect of temperature on respiration of mitochondria and tissue segments from three wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and one rye (Secale cereale L.) cultivar grown at 2 and 24 C has been examined. Discontinuities in Arrhenius plots of respiratory activity against temperature were observed for mitochondria and tissue segments from seedlings grown at both temperatures. The rates of respiration decreased abruptly below the transition temperatures, resulting in increased energy of activation values for respiration. Transition temperatures were observed from 6 to 10 C during tissue segment respiration, and from 10 to 14 C during respiration by isolated mitochondria. Respiratory control and efficiency of phosphorylation were not affected markedly by either reaction temperature or growth temperature of the seedlings. No correlation was observed between the cold hardiness of the cultivars and the temperature at which structural transitions occurred in the mitochondria. Dry matter content of the seedlings increased markedly during growth at 2 C, but no appreciable changes in the levels of mitochondrial protein were observed. The results support the view that changes other than fatty acid unsaturation are involved in the abrupt change in mitochondrial membrane properties at low temperature. 相似文献

Effects of a defoamer and toxic molasses compounds on development and ultrastructure of A. niger mycelium, strain Z, characterized by high tolerance to these substances and producing citric acid in surface fermentation on proper molasses media with 70% yield were presented. Spumol BJ in concentration of 5 microliters/100 cm3 as well as toxic molasses compounds stimulated the process of swelling and germinating of conidia. Moreover, giant conidia, unable to germinate, appeared. Developing mycelium with dispersed hyphae became mucilaginous after 17-20 h culture, which indicated the process of sinking but after 24 h some part of the mycelium developed normally. Electron microscopic observations of mycelium developing in the presence of the toxic substances showed along with electron-transparent cytoplasm in a consequence of decrease in ribosome number, changes in ultrastructure of mitochondria. It may be assumed that one of the reasons of the above described abnormalities in development and ultrastructure of mycelium was a disturbance of respiration processes. The appearance of deposits of electron-dense material in mitochondria suggested the existence of a defence mechanism, eliminating toxic substances. 相似文献

Several investigators have described the ultrastructural changes that occur in the mitochondria of cells in tissue cultures after treatment with the drug ethidium bromide (E). The mitochondria swell and the cristae become greatly altered and finally disappear; in the cristae-free region of the matrix electron-dense granules can be observed. It has been assumed that intercalation of E between the base pairs of the mitochondrial DNA induces the formation of the granular inclusions. To investigate whether intercalation is really the initial step in the generation of dense granules inside the matrix, we performed a comparative incubation study of HeLa-cell mitochondria in situ using three closely related dyes (D), i.e., E, tetramethylethidium bromide (TME) and betaine B (B). They strongly differ with regard to their affinity for DNA and their ability to cross membranes. E was used as a reference dye. TME does not intercalate, but is externally bound to DNA only weakly. The neutral B is not bound at all, but can cross membranes more easily than the cation E. Moreover, in aqueous solutions at pH approximately equal to 7.0, B is in equilibrium with its protonated cation BH. BH and E have almost equal affinities for DNA. Therefore B may quickly pass the inner mitochondrial membranes and the cristae, and should then be bound inside the matrix, thus forming a BH-DNA complex. On the assumption that intercalation is necessary for the generation of intramitochondrial electron-dense bodies, we predicted that BH/B should be more efficient than E, while TME should be relatively ineffective.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Ryegrass mosaic virus particles and virus induced lamellar inclusions were found in mesophyll and epidermal cells of virus infected ryegrass leaves. The lamellar inclusions were occasionally found in phloem cells also. Virus particles occurred in cytoplasm, inside plasmodesmata and often in membrane bound sacs embedded in a matrix between plasmalemma and cell wall at or near plasmodesmata. Electron dense plugs protruding from plasmodesmata, finger-like cell wall outgrowths and cell wall deposits usually at plasmodesmata were also observed. Cytopathological changes in organelles in infected cells included dense deposits in the cisternae of endosplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus, mitochondria with electron-dense or opaque matrix, proliferating cristae and deteriorating unit membrane; and disintegrating chloroplasts. 相似文献
