The capacity of cyclosporin A to inhibit opening of a Ca2+-dependent pore in the inner membrane of heart mitochondria was investigated. Whereas in the presence of 25 nmol of Ca2+/mg of mitochondrial protein and 5 mM-Pi mitochondria were unable to maintain accumulated Ca2+, inner-membrane potential and sucrose impermeability, all three parameters were preserved when cyclosporin was included. Pore opening was assayed directly by [14C]sucrose entry and entrapment in the matrix space. [14C]Sucrose entry induced by both Ca2+ plus Pi and Ca2+ plus t-butyl hydroperoxide was almost completely inhibited by 60 pmol of cyclosporin/mg of mitochondrial protein. It is concluded that cyclosporin A is a potent inhibitor of the pore. 相似文献

Calcium-induced cytochrome c release from CNS mitochondria is associated with the permeability transition and rupture of the outer membrane 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The mechanisms of Ca2+-induced release of Cytochrome c (Cyt c) from rat brain mitochondria were examined quantitatively using a capture ELISA. In 75 or 125 mm KCl-based media 1.4 micromol Ca2+/mg protein caused depolarization and mitochondrial swelling. However, this resulted in partial Cyt c release only in 75 mm KCl. The release was inhibited by Ru360, an inhibitor of the Ca2+ uniporter, and by cyclosporin A plus ADP, a combination of mitochondrial permeability transition inhibitors. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed that Ca2+-induced swelling caused rupture of the outer membrane only in 75 mm KCl. Koenig's polyanion, an inhibitor of mitochondrial porin (VDAC), enhanced swelling and amplified Cyt c release. Dextran T70 that is known to enhance mitochondrial contact site formation did not prevent Cyt c release. Exposure of cultured cortical neurons to 500 microM glutamate for 5 min caused Cyt c release into the cytosol 30 min after glutamate removal. MK-801 or CsA inhibited this release. Thus, the release of Cyt c from CNS mitochondria induced by Ca2+ in vitro as well as in situ involved the mPT and appeared to require the rupture of the outer membrane. 相似文献

1. The effects of cyclosporin A on the increase in matrix PPi and consequent swelling of energized liver mitochondria incubated with 1 mM-butyrate, 30 microM-bongkrekic acid or 0.1-35 microM-Ca2+ [Halestrap (1989) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 973, 355-382] were studied. 2. Cyclosporin (1 microM) had no significant effect on the swelling induced by butyrate, bongkrekic acid or Ca2+ at concentrations of less than 0.3 microM. 3. At higher [Ca2+] (greater than 0.3 microM), swelling became progressively inhibited by cyclosporin, although the increase in matrix PPi was slightly greater in the presence than in the absence of cyclosporin. 4. Titration with cyclosporin indicated that there are 128 pmol of relevant cyclosporin-binding sites per mg of mitochondrial protein, with a Ki of about 5 nM. 5. The decrease in light-scattering by hepatocytes induced by butyrate [Davidson & Halestrap (1988) Biochem. J. 254, 379-384] was unaffected by cyclosporin, whereas that induced by vasopressin was inhibited by 20-30% without a significant change in cellular PPi content. 6. It is suggested that there are two mechanisms for the increase in mitochondrial volume induced by Ca2+: a PPi-mediated mechanism that is insensitive to cyclosporin and an additional Ca2(+)-mediated effect that is inhibited by cyclosporin. The nature of these pathways and their inter-relationship is discussed in the following paper [Halestrap & Davidson (1990) Biochem. J. 268, 153-160]. 相似文献

Inhibition of Ca2(+)-induced large-amplitude swelling of liver and heart mitochondria by cyclosporin is probably caused by the inhibitor binding to mitochondrial-matrix peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase and preventing it interacting with the adenine nucleotide translocase. 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

1. Isolated rat liver and heart mitochondria incubated in 150 mM-KSCN or sucrose medium in the presence of respiratory-chain inhibitors showed a large increase in swelling when exposed to 250 microM-Ca2+. Swelling was inhibited by bongkrekic acid and cyclosporin A in both media and by ADP in KSCN medium; the effect of ADP was reversed by carboxyatractyloside. These results demonstrate that this is a suitable technique with which to study the opening of the Ca2(+)-induced non-specific pore of the mitochondrial inner membrane and implicate the adenine nucleotide carrier in this process. 2. Titration of the rate of swelling with increasing concentrations of cyclosporin showed the number of cyclosporin-binding sites (+/- S.E.M.) in liver and heart mitochondria to be respectively 113.7 +/- 5.0 (n = 9) and 124.3 +/- 11.2 (n = 10) pmol/mg of protein, with a Ki of about 5 nM. 3. Liver and heart mitochondrial-matrix fractions were prepared free of membrane and cytosolic contamination and shown to contain cyclosporin-sensitive peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (cyclophilin) activity. Titration of isomerase activity with cyclosporin gave values (+/- S.E.M.) of 110.6 +/- 10.1 (n = 5) and 165.4 +/- 15.0 (n = 3) pmol of enzyme/mg of liver and heart mitochondrial protein respectively, with a Ki of 2.5 nM. The similarity of these results to those from the swelling experiments suggest that the isomerase may be involved in the Ca2(+)-induced swelling. 4. The rapid light-scattering change induced in energized heart mitochondria exposed to submicromolar Ca2+ [Halestrap (1987) Biochem. J. 244, 159-164] was inhibited by ADP and bongkrekic acid, the former effect being reversed by carboxyatractyloside. These results suggest an interaction of Ca2+ with the adenine nucleotide carrier when the 'c' conformation. 5. A model is proposed in which mitochondrial peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase interacts with the adenine nucleotide carrier in the presence of Ca2+ to cause non-specific pore opening. The model also explains the involvement of the adenine nucleotide translocase in the PPi-mediated cyclosporin-insensitive increase in K+ permeability described in the preceding paper [Davidson & Halestrap (1990) Biochem. J. 268, 147-152]. 6. The physiological and pathological implications of the model are discussed in relation to reperfusion injury and cyclosporin toxicity. 相似文献

A variety of experimental conditions elicit increases in mitochondrial permeability that can be differentiated from the classic cyclosporin A (CsA)-sensitive mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT). For example, butylated hydroxytoluene, signal peptides, and the hormone thyroxine have been shown to promote increases in mitochondrial permeability that are CsA-insensitive. Our laboratory has recently demonstrated that palmitic acid, a saturated 16-carbon free fatty acid (FFA), can also open a CsA-insensitive pore. This nonclassic permeability transition (NCPT) is further distinguished by a nonselective dependence on divalent cations and by spontaneous closure. To determine if induction of the NCPT is specific to palmitic acid and to resolve conflicting reports as to the mechanisms by which FFAs alter mitochondrial permeability, we examined in detail mitochondrial swelling induced by FFAs that differ in chain length and degree of saturation. The following results were obtained: (1) In the presence of modest Ca2+ concentrations (75 nmol/mg protein), medium-chain FFAs (C12-C18) were more effective in eliciting mitochondrial swelling than were shorter or longer FFAs; medium-chain alkanols and amines had no effect. (2) Under these conditions, saturated FFAs induced CsA-insensitive swelling with all the characteristics of the NCPT, while unsaturated FFAs triggered the MPT. (3) When matrix Ca2+ concentration was further elevated, unsaturated FFAs triggered the NCPT. (4) Mitochondrial swelling induced by saturated FFAs was inhibited by unsaturated FFAs but not by other saturated FFAs or medium-chain alkanols. These results suggest that ambient conditions can greatly influence the nature of the increase in mitochondrial permeability induced by FFAs. They are also consistent with our earlier proposal that Ca2+ (or Sr2+) binding to FFAs in the inner leaflet of the inner mitochondrial membrane underlies the NCPT. 相似文献

Addition of a low concentration of carboxyatractyloside (0.075 microM) renders mitochondria susceptible to the opening of the non-specific pore by 5 microM oleate, in a cyclosporin A-sensitive fashion. Matrix Ca2+ efflux as well as collapse of the transmembrane potential reveal permeability transition. The effect of oleate is reached after the titration, by carboxyatractyloside, of 38 pmol of adenine nucleotide translocase per mg mitochondrial protein. We propose that permeability transition may result from an additive action of carboxyatractyloside plus oleate on the ADP/ATP carrier. 相似文献

Oxidative damage of mammalian mitochondria induced by Ca2+ and prooxidants is mediated by the attack of mitochondria-generated reactive oxygen species on membrane protein thiols promoting oxidation and cross-linkage that leads to the opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (Castilho et al., 1995). In this study, we present evidence that deenergized potato tuber (Solanum tuberosum) mitochondria, which do not possess a Ca2+ uniport, undergo inner membrane permeabilization when treated with Ca2+ (>0.2 mM), as indicated by mitochondrial swelling. Similar to rat liver mitochondria, this permeabilization is enhanced by diamide, a thiol oxidant that creates a condition of oxidative stress by oxidizing pyridine nucleotides. This is inhibited by the antioxidants catalase and dithiothreitol. Potato mitochondrial membrane permeabilization is not inhibited by ADP, cyclosporin A, and ruthenium red, and is partially inhibited by Mg2+ and acidic pH, well known inhibitors of the mammalian mitochondrial permeability transition. The lack of inhibition of potato mitochondrial permeabilization by cyclosporin A is in contrast to the inhibition of the peptidylprolyl cis–trans isomerase activity, that is related to the cyclosporin A-binding protein cyclophilin. Interestingly, the monofunctional thiol reagent mersalyl induces an extensive cyclosporin A-insensitive potato mitochondrial swelling, even in the presence of lower Ca2+ concentrations (>0.01 mM). In conclusion, we have identified a cyclosporin A-insensitive permeability transition pore in isolated potato mitochondria that is induced by reactive oxygen species. 相似文献

The mechanism of the palmitate-induced opening of the mitochondrial Ca2+-dependent cyclosporin A (CsA)-insensitive pore was studied, as well as the influence on this process of well-known modulators of the CsA-sensitive Ca2+-dependent pore. Palmitic acid, which can bind Ca2+ with high affinity, induced the cyclosporin A-insensitive swelling of mitochondria, whereas palmitoleic and 2-bromopalmitic acids, which have no such affinity for Ca2+, failed to induce the pore opening. The palmitate-induced Ca2+-dependent swelling of mitochondria was not affected by a well-known inhibitor of the CsA-sensitive pore (ADP) and an activator of this pore (inorganic phosphate, P(i)). However, this swelling was inhibited by physiological concentrations of ATP ([I]50 = 1.3 mM), but 100 microM ATP increased by 30% the rate of mitochondria swelling if Ca2+ had been added earlier. The effects of ATP (inhibition and activation) manifested themselves from different sides of the inner mitochondrial membrane. Mg2+ inhibited the palmitate-induced Ca2+-dependent swelling of mitochondria with [I]50 = 0.8 mM. It is concluded that palmitic acid induces the opening of the CsA-insensitive pore due to its ability for complexing with Ca2+. A possible mechanism of the pore formation and the influence of some modulators on this process are discussed. 相似文献

The objective of the present study was to assess the capacity of nonsynaptic brain mitochondria to accumulate Ca2+ when subjected to repeated Ca2+ loads, and to explore under what conditions a mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) pore is assembled. The effects of cyclosporin A (CsA) on Ca2+ accumulation and MPT pore assembly were compared with those obtained with ubiquinone 0 (Ubo), a quinone that is a stronger MPT blocker than CsA, when tested on muscle and liver mitochondria. When suspended in a solution containing phosphate (2 mM) and Mg2+ (1 mM), but no ATP or ADP, the brain mitochondria had a limited capacity to accumulate Ca2+ (210 nmol/mg of mitochondrial protein). Furthermore, when repeated Ca2+ pulses (40 nmol/mg of protein each) saturated the uptake system, the mitochondria failed to release the Ca2+ accumulated. However, in each instance, the first Ca2+ pulse was accompanied by a moderate release of Ca2+, a release that was not observed during the subsequent pulses. The initial release was accompanied by a relatively marked depolarization, and by swelling, as assessed by light-scattering measurements. However, as the swelling was <50% of that observed following addition of alamethicin, it is concluded that the first Ca2+ pulse gives rise to an MPT in a subfraction of the mitochondrial population. CsA, an avid blocker of the MPT pore, only marginally increased the Ca(2+)-sequestrating capacity of the mitochondria. However, CsA eliminated the Ca2+ release accompanying the first Ca2+ pulse. The effects of CsA were shared by Ubo, but when the concentration of Ubo exceeded 20 microM, it proved toxic. The results thus suggest that brain mitochondria are different from those derived from a variety of other sources. The major difference is that a fraction of the brain mitochondria, studied presently, depolarized and showed signs of an MPT. This fraction, but not the remaining ones, contributed to the chemically and electron microscopically verified mitochondrial swelling. 相似文献

Heart mitochondria respiring in a sucrose medium containing P(i) show a permeability transition when challenged with Ca2+ and an oxidant such as cumene hydroperoxide. The transition results from the opening of a Ca(2+)-dependent pore and is evidenced by loss of membrane potential (delta psi) and osmotic swelling due to uptake of sucrose and other solutes. In the absence of oxidant, high concentrations of Ca2+ (100-150 microM) are necessary to induce loss of delta psi and initiate swelling. Cyclosporin A delays the loss of delta psi but enhances swelling under these conditions, apparently by promoting better retention of accumulated Ca2+. Cyclosporin A and ADP together restore delta psi in respiring mitochondria that have undergone the permeability transition at levels that are not effective when either is added alone. When the state of the Ca(2+)-dependent pore is assessed using passive osmotic contraction in response to polyethylene glycol (Haworth, R. A., and Hunter, D. R. (1979) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 195, 460-467), cyclosporin A is found to be a partial inhibitor of solute flow through the open pore. Cyclosporin A decreases the Vmax of passive contraction and increases the Km for Ca2+ without affecting the Hill slope. ADP in the presence of carboxyatractyloside closes the pore almost completely even in the presence of 40 microM Ca2+. ADP shows mixed type inhibition of the Ca(2+)-dependent pore, and cyclosporin A increases the affinity of the pore for ADP. It is concluded that cyclosporin A and ADP act synergistically to close the Ca(2+)-dependent pore of the mitochondrion and that the pore is probably not formed directly from the adenine nucleotide transporter. 相似文献

An exposure of cultured hippocampal neurons expressing mitochondrially targeted enhanced yellow fluorescent protein to excitotoxic glutamate resulted in reversible mitochondrial remodeling that in many instances could be interpreted as swelling. Remodeling was not evident if glutamate receptors were blocked with MK801, if Ca(2+) was omitted or substituted for Sr(2+) in the bath solution, if neurons were treated with carbonylcyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone to depolarize mitochondria, or if neurons were pretreated with cyclosporin A or N-methyl-4-isoleucine-cyclosporin (NIM811) to inhibit the mitochondrial permeability transition. In the experiments with isolated brain synaptic or nonsynaptic mitochondria, Ca(2+) triggered transient, spontaneously reversible cyclosporin A-sensitive swelling closely resembling remodeling of organelles in cultured neurons. The swelling was accompanied by the release of cytochrome c, Smac/DIABLO, Omi/HtrA2, and AIF but not endonuclease G. Depolarization with carbonylcyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone or inhibition of the Ca(2+) uniporter with Ru360 prevented rapid onset of the swelling. Sr(2+) depolarized mitochondria but failed to induce swelling. Neither inhibitors of the large conductance Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channel (charybdotoxin, iberiotoxin, quinine, and Ba(2+)) nor inhibitors of the mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K(+) channel (5-hydroxydecanoate and glibenclamide) suppressed swelling. Quinine, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, and Mg(2+), inhibitors of the mitochondrial K(+)/H(+) exchanger, as well as external alkalization inhibited a recovery phase of the reversible swelling. In contrast to brain mitochondria, liver and heart mitochondria challenged with Ca(2+) experienced sustained swelling without spontaneous recovery. The proposed model suggests an involvement of the Ca(2+)-dependent transient K(+) influx into the matrix causing mitochondrial swelling followed by activation of the K(+)/H(+) exchanger leading to spontaneous mitochondrial contraction both in situ and in vitro. 相似文献

In the experiments, which were carried out using flow cytometry on isolated uterus mitochondria of nonpregnant rats, conditions for studying Ca2+-induced increase in nonspecific permeability of mitochondial membrane were tested. Fluorescent probe nonyl acridin orange was used to determine the purity of isolated mitochondria. Mitochondrial swelling induced by addition of Ca2+ or alamethicin was detected as a decrease in light side scattering (SS). It was shown that mitochondrial swelling in the presence of 100 microM Ca plus 1 microM A23187 was 86 +/- 4% compared with maximal response after alamethicin treatment. The calcium-induced swelling of mitochondria was inhibited by the addition of 5 microM cyclosporin plus 40 microM ADP. Mitochondrial swelling was inhibited by spermine at a dose of 0.1 micromol/mg or induced at a dose of 10 micromol/mg. It was supposed that the experimental approach proposed in this paper can be useful for mitochondrial pore modulating effectors screening. 相似文献

The Fas/Fas ligand and mitochondria pathways have been involved in cell death in several cell types. We combined the genetic inactivation of the Fas receptor (lpr mice), on the one hand, to the pharmacological inhibition of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP), on the other hand, to investigate which of these pathways is predominantly activated during prolonged ischemia-reperfusion. Anesthetized C57BL/6JICO (control) and C57BL/6-lpr mice were pretreated with either saline or cyclosporin A (CsA; 40 mg/kg, 3 times a day), an inhibitor of the mPTP, and underwent 25 min of ischemia and 24 h of reperfusion. After 24 h of reperfusion, hearts were harvested: infarct size was assessed by 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining, myocardial apoptosis by caspase 3 activity, and mitochondrial permeability transition by Ca2+-induced mPTP opening using a potentiometric approach. Infarct size was comparable in untreated control and lpr mice, ranging from 77 +/- 5% to 83 +/- 3% of the area at risk. CsA significantly reduced infarct size in control and lpr hearts. Control and lpr hearts exhibited comparable increase in caspase 3 activity that averaged 57 +/- 18 and 49 +/- 5 pmol x min(-1) x mg(-1), respectively. CsA treatment significantly reduced caspase 3 activity in control and lpr hearts. The Ca2+ overload required to open the mPTP was decreased to a similar extent in lpr and controls. CsA significantly attenuated Ca2+-induced mPTP opening in both groups. Our results suggest that the Fas pathway likely plays a minor role, whereas mitochondria are preferentially involved in mice cardiomyocyte death after a lethal ischemia-reperfusion injury. 相似文献

Genistein, a natural isoflavone present in soybeans, is a potent agent in the prophylaxis and treatment of cancer. Addition of genistein to isolated rat liver mitochondria (RLM) induces swelling, loss of membrane potential and release of accumulated Ca2+. These changes are Ca2+-dependent and are prevented by cyclosporin A (CsA) and bongkrekic acid (BKA), two classical inhibitors of the mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT). Induction of the MPT by genistein is accompanied by oxidation of thiol groups and pyridine nucleotides. The reducing agent dithioerythritol and the alkylating agent N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) completely prevent the opening of the transition pore, thereby emphasizing that the effect of the isoflavone correlates with the mitochondrial redox state. Further analyses showed that genistein induces the MPT by the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) due to its interaction with the respiratory chain at the level of mitochondrial complex III. 相似文献

The status of glutathione (GSH) was studied in isolated rat liver mitochondria under conditions which induce a permeability transition. This transition, which is inhibited by cyclosporin A (CyA), requires the presence of Ca2+ and an inducing agent such as near physiological levels (3 mM) of inorganic phosphate (Pi). The transition is characterized by an increased inner membrane permeability to some low molecular weight solutes and by large amplitude swelling under some experimental conditions. Addition of 70 microM Ca2+ and 3 mM Pi to mitochondria resulted in mitochondrial swelling and extensive release of GSH that was recovered in the extramitochondrial medium as GSH. Both swelling and the efflux of mitochondrial GSH were prevented by CyA. Incubation of mitochondria in the presence of Ca2+, Pi, and GSH followed by addition of CyA provided a mechanism to load mitochondria with exogenous GSH that was greater than the rate of uptake by untreated mitochondria. Thus, GSH efflux from mitochondria may occur under toxicological and pathological conditions in which mitochondria are exposed to elevated Ca2+ in the presence of near physiological concentrations of Pi through a nonspecific pore. Cyclical opening and closing of the pore could also provide a mechanism for uptake of GSH by mitochondria. 相似文献

The mitochondrial permeability transition pore (PTP) may operate as a physiological Ca2+ release mechanism and also contribute to mitochondrial deenergization and release of proapoptotic proteins after pathological stress, e.g. ischemia/reperfusion. Brain mitochondria exhibit unique PTP characteristics, including relative resistance to inhibition by cyclosporin A. In this study, we report that 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate blocks Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release in isolated, non-synaptosomal rat brain mitochondria in the presence of physiological concentrations of ATP and Mg2+. Ca2+ release was not mediated by the mitochondrial Na+/Ca2+ exchanger or by reversal of the uniporter responsible for energy-dependent Ca2+ uptake. Loss of mitochondrial Ca2+ was accompanied by release of cytochrome c and pyridine nucleotides, indicating an increase in permeability of both the inner and outer mitochondrial membranes. Under these conditions, Ca2+-induced opening of the PTP was not blocked by cyclosporin A, antioxidants, or inhibitors of phospholipase A2 or nitric-oxide synthase but was abolished by pretreatment with bongkrekic acid. These findings indicate that in the presence of adenine nucleotides and Mg2+,Ca2+-induced PTP in non-synaptosomal brain mitochondria exhibits a unique pattern of sensitivity to inhibitors and is particularly responsive to 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate. 相似文献

The seleno-organic compound ebselen mimics the glutathione-dependent, hydroperoxide reducing activity of glutathione peroxidase. The activity of glutathione peroxidase determines the rate of hydroperoxide-induced Ca2+ release from mitochondria. Ebselen stimulates Ca2+ release from mitochondria, accelerates mitochondrial respiration and uncoupling, and induces mitochondrial swelling, indicating a deterioration of mitochondrial function. These manifestations are abolished by cyclosporine A, a potent inhibitor of the mitochondrial permeability transition. However, when ebselen-induced Ca2+ cycling is prevented with ruthenium red, an inhibitor of the Ca2+ uniporter, or by chelation of extramitochondrial Ca2+ by EGTA, no detectable elevation of swelling or uncoupling is observed. The release of Ca2+ from mitochondria is delayed in the absence of rotenone, i.e. when pyridine nucleotides are maintained in the reduced state due to succinate-driven reversed electron flow. We suggest that ebselen induces Ca2+ release from intact mitochondria via an NAD+ hydrolysis-dependent mechanism. 相似文献

Gliotoxin (GT) is a hydrophobic fungal metabolite of the epipolythiodioxopiperazine group which reacts with membrane thiols. When added to a suspension of energized brain mitochondria, it induces matrix swelling of low amplitude, collapse of membrane potential (DeltaPsi), and efflux of endogenous cations such as Ca2+ and Mg2+, typical events of mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) induction. These effects are due to opening of the membrane transition pore. The addition of cyclosporin A (CsA) or ADP slightly reduces membrane potential collapse, matrix swelling and Ca2+ efflux; Mg2+ efflux is not affected at all. The presence of exogenous Mg2+ or spermine completely preserve mitochondria against DeltaPsi collapse, matrix swelling and Ca2+ release. Instead, Mg2+ efflux is only slightly affected by spermine. Our results demonstrate that, besides inducing MPT, gliotoxin activates a specific Mg2+ efflux system from brain mitochondria. 相似文献

Increase of Ca2+ concentration in the cytosol of thymocytes to 400-600 nM causes slow accumulation of Ca2+ in mitochondria. Release of Ca2+ from mitochondria into the cytosol is induced by an uncoupler (FCCP) or by a dithiol cross-linking agent (phenylarsine oxide) and is inhibited by cyclosporin A--a specific inhibitor of the permeability transition pore in the inner mitochondrial membrane. In the presence of oxidizing agents (tert-butyl hydroperoxide and diamide), sub-optimal concentrations of uncoupler induce rapid cyclosporin-sensitive release of Ca2+. 6-Ketocholestanol, a recoupler under these conditions, causes redistribution of Ca2+ from the cytosol into mitochondria. These data indicate that partial uncoupling under conditions of oxidative stress causes opening of the permeability transition pore in a fraction of the mitochondria in intact lymphocytes. This mechanism mediates rapid release of Ca2+ from mitochondria into the cytosol. 相似文献

Isolated mitochondria may undergo uncoupling, and in presence of Ca(2+) at different conditions, a mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) linked to protein thiol oxidation, and demonstrated by CsA-sensitive mitochondrial swelling; these processes may cause cell death either by necrosis or by apoptosis. Isocoumarins isolated from the Brazilian plant Paepalanthus bromelioides (Eriocaulaceae) paepalantine (9,10-dihydroxy-5,7-dimethoxy-1H-naptho(2,3c)pyran-1-one), 8,8'-paepalantine dimer, and vioxanthin were assayed at 1-50 microM on isolated rat liver mitochondria, for respiration, MPT, protein thiol oxidation, and interaction with the mitochondrial membrane using 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH). The isocoumarins did not significantly affect state 3 respiration of succinate-energized mitochondria; they did however, stimulate 4 respiration, indicating mitochondrial uncoupling. Induction of MPT and protein thiol oxidation were assessed in succinate-energized mitochondria exposed to 10 microM Ca(2+); inhibition of these processes was assessed in non-energized organelles in the presence of 300 microM t-butyl hydroperoxide plus 500 microM Ca(2+). Only paepalantine was an effective MPT/protein thiol oxidation inducer, also releasing cytochrome c from mitochondria; the protein thiol oxidation, unlike mitochondrial swelling, was neither inhibited by CsA nor dependent on the presence of Ca(2+). Vioxanthin was an effective inhibitor of MPT/protein thiol oxidation. All isocoumarins inserted deeply into the mitochondrial membrane, but only paepalantine dimer and vioxantin decreased the membrane's fluidity. A direct reaction with mitochondrial membrane protein thiols, involving an oxidation of these groups, is proposed to account for MPT induction by paepalantine, while a restriction of oxidation of these same thiol groups imposed by the decrease of membrane fluidity, is proposed to account for MPT inhibition by vioxanthin. 相似文献
