Metabolic responses of mammalian cells toward declining oxygen concentration are generally thought to occur when oxygen limits mitochondrial ATP production. However, at oxygen concentrations markedly above those limiting to mitochondria, several mammalian cell types display reduced rates of oxygen consumption without energy stress or compensatory increases in glycolytic ATP production. We used mammalian Jurkat T cells as a model system to identify mechanisms responsible for these changes in metabolic rate. Oxygen consumption was 31% greater at high oxygen (150–200 μM) compared to low oxygen (5–10 μM). Hydrogen peroxide was implicated in the response as catalase prevented the increase in oxygen consumption normally associated with high oxygen. Cell-derived hydrogen peroxide, predominately from the mitochondria, was elevated with high oxygen. Oxygen consumption related to intracellular calcium turnover was shown, through EDTA chelation and dantrolene antagonism of the ryanodine receptor, to account for 70% of the response. Oligomycin inhibition of oxygen consumption indicated that mitochondrial proton leak was also sensitive to changes in oxygen concentration. Our results point toward a mechanism in which changes in oxygen concentration influence the rate of hydrogen peroxide production by mitochondria, which, in turn, alters cellular ATP use associated with intracellular calcium turnover and energy wastage through mitochondrial proton leak. 相似文献

A mathematical model is developed to analyze the influence of chemical reaction and diffusion processes on the intracellular organization of mitochondria in skeletal muscle cells. The mathematical modeling approach uses a reaction-diffusion analysis of oxygen, ATP, and ADP involved in energy metabolism and mitochondrial function as governed by oxygen supply, volume fraction of mitochondria, and rates of reaction. Superimposed upon and coupled to the continuum species material balances is a cellular automata (CA) approach governing mitochondrial life cycles in response to the metabolic state of the cell. The effectiveness factor (η), defined as the ratio of reaction rate in the system with finite rates of diffusion to those in the absence of any diffusion limitation is used to assess diffusional constraints in muscle cells. The model shows the dramatic effects that the governing parameters have on the mitochondrial cycle of life and death and how these effects lead to changes in the distribution patterns of mitochondria observed experimentally. The model results showed good agreement with experimental results on mitochondrial distributions in mammalian muscle fibers. The η increases as the mitochondrial population is redistributed toward the fiber periphery in response to a decreased availability of oxygen. Modification of the CA parameters so that the mitochondrial lifecycle is more sensitive to the oxygen concentration caused larger mitochondrial shifts to the edge of the cell with smaller changes in oxygen concentration, and thus also lead to increased values of η. The present study shows that variation in oxygen supply, muscle activity and mitochondrial ATP supply influence the η and are the important parameters that can cause diffusion limitations. In order to prevent diffusion constraints, the cell resorts to shifts in their mitochondrial population towards the cell periphery, thus increasing η. 相似文献

Probing of molecular oxygen in mammalian cells is important for the analysis of mitochondrial function, metabolic responses, and energetic status of the cells. We describe a new panel of intracellular O2-sensitive probes based on phosphorescent porphyrin dyes conjugated to cell-penetrating peptides. The probes comprising the uncharged derivatives of Pt(II)-coproporphyrin I covalently linked to positively charged TAT-derived peptides are shown to effectively load live mammalian cells without any transfection reagents. The probes work well with all cell types tested, show similar subcellular localization, and produce characteristic responses to cell stimulation with mitochondrial uncouplers and inhibitors. They provide a simple and versatile tool for O2 monitoring in live cells and in tissue, and an alternative to the existing O2 probes which require facilitated transport into the cell. 相似文献

Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced injury has been shown to occur during the reperfusion phase of ischemia-reperfusion and ROS are known to induce signaling events. We hypothesized that oxygen sensing in endothelial cells is also dependent on internal redox changes during hypoxia and that endothelial cells respond to changing oxygen environments via signaling, switching to an inflammatory phenotype. Endothelial cells exposed to relative hypoxia or the mitochondrial inhibitors rotenone, antimycin A, or FCCP show loss of mitochondrial membrane potential. During hypoxia, an increase in cytoplasmic ROS and glutathione S-transferase activity occurred, suggesting changes in intracellular redox state, mimicked with rotenone or FCCP but inhibited by antimycin A. Phosphorylation of stress-responsive mitogen-activated protein kinases occurred in hypoxia and was rapid and prolonged. Phosphorylation was inhibited by vitamin C, N-acetyl cysteine, or antimycin A. Chelation of intracellular calcium inhibits phosphorylation but the mitochondrial transition pore inhibitor cyclosporin A had no effect. Reoxygenation caused a further round of signaling, which was rapid but transient. Functionally, adhesion of neutrophils after hypoxia-reoxygenation under flow is ROS, P-selectin, and MAPK dependent. Therefore, changes in cellular signaling and phenotype are abrogated by ROS scavengers and suggest their use as therapeutic agents in ischemia-reperfusion. 相似文献

Cerebral hypoxia/ischemia leads to mitochondrial dysfunction due to lack of oxygen leaving the glycolytic metabolism as a main pathway for ATP production. Inhibition of mitochondrial respiration thus triggers generation of lactate and hydrogen ions (H+), and furthermore dramatically reduces ATP generation leading to disregulation of cellular ion metabolism with subsequent intracellular calcium accumulation. Upon reperfusion, when mitochondrial dysfunction is (at least partially) reversed by restoring cerebral oxygen supply, bioenergetic metabolism recovers and brain cells are able to re-institute their normal ionic homeostatic mechanisms. However, the initial restoration of normal mitochondrial function may be only transient and followed by a secondary, delayed perturbation of mitochondrial respiratory performance seen as a decrease in cellular ATP levels and known as "secondary energy failure". There have been several mechanisms considered responsible for delayed post-ischemic mitochondrial failure, the mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) being one that is considered important. Although the amount of calcium available during early reperfusion in vivo is limited, relative to the amount needed to trigger the MPT in vitro; the additional intracellular conditions (of acidosis, high phosphate, and low adenine nucleotideae levels) prevailing during reperfusion, favor MPT pore opening in vivo. Furthermore, the cellular redistribution and/or changes in the intracellular levels of pro-apoptotic proteins can alter mitochondrial function and initiate apoptotic cell death. Thus, mitochondria seem play an important role in orchestrating cell death mechanisms following hypoxia/ischemia. However, it is still not clear which are the key mechanisms that cause mitochondrial dysfunction and lead ultimately to cell death, and which have more secondary nature to brain damage acting as aggravating factors. 相似文献

Mitochondrial sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) mediates cellular resistance toward various forms of stress. Here, we show that in mammalian cells subjected to hypoxia and staurosporine treatment SIRT3 prevents loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨmt), intracellular acidification and reactive oxygen species accumulation. Our results indicate that: (i) SIRT3 inhibits mitochondrial permeability transition and loss of membrane potential by preventing HKII binding to the mitochondria, (ii) SIRT3 increases catalytic activity of the mitochondrial carbonic anhydrase VB, thereby preventing intracellular acidification, Bax activation and apoptotic cell death. In conclusion we propose that, in mammalian cells, SIRT3 has a central role in connecting changes in ΔΨmt, intracellular pH and mitochondrial-regulated apoptotic pathways. 相似文献

Oxidative stress in mammalian cells is an inevitable consequence of their aerobic metabolism. The production of reactive oxygen and nitric oxide species causes oxidative modifications of proteins often combined with a loss of their biological function. Like most partially denatured proteins, moderately oxidized proteins are more sensitive to proteolytic attack by proteases. The diverse cellular proteolytic systems are an important secondary defense against oxidative stress by degrading oxidized and damaged proteins, thereby preventing their intracellular accumulation. In mammalian cells, a range of proteases exists which are distributed throughout the cell. In this review we summarize the function of the cytosolic (proteasome and calpains), the lysosomal, the mitochondrial and the nuclear proteolytic pathways in response to oxidative stress. Particular emphasis is given to the proteasomal system, since this pathway appears to be the most important proteolytic system involved in the removal of oxidatively modified or damaged proteins. 相似文献

Recent advances in mitochondrial imaging have revealed that in many cells mitochondria can be highly dynamic. They can undergo fission/fusion processes modulated by various mitochondria-associated proteins and also by conformational transitions in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Moreover, precise mitochondrial distribution can be achieved by their movement along the cytoskeleton, recruiting various connector and motor proteins. Such movement is evident in various cell types ranging from yeast to mammalian cells and serves to direct mitochondria to cellular regions of high ATP demand or to transport mitochondria destined for elimination. Existing data also demonstrate that many aspects of mitochondrial dynamics, morphology, regulation and intracellular organization can be cell type-/tissue-specific. In many cells like neurons, pancreatic cells, HL-1 cells, etc., complex dynamics of mitochondria include fission, fusion, small oscillatory movements of mitochondria, larger movements like filament extension, retraction, fast branching in the mitochondrial network and rapid long-distance intracellular translocation of single mitochondria. Alternatively, mitochondria can be rather fixed in other cells and tissues like adult cardiomyocytes or skeletal muscles with a very regular organelle organization between myofibrils, providing the bioenergetic basis for contraction. Adult cardiac cells show no displacement of mitochondria with only very small-amplitude rapid vibrations, demonstrating remarkable, cell type-dependent differences in the dynamics and spatial arrangement of mitochondria. These variations and the cell-type specificity of mitochondrial dynamics could be related to specific cellular functions and demands, also indicating a significant role of integrations of mitochondria with other intracellular systems like the cytoskeleton, nucleus and endoplasmic reticulum (ER). 相似文献

Accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is an oxidative stress to which cells respond by activating various defense mechanisms or, finally, by dying. At low levels, however, ROS act as signaling molecules in various intracellular processes. Autophagy, a process by which eukaryotic cells degrade and recycle macromolecules and organelles, has an important role in the cellular response to oxidative stress. Here, we review recent reports suggesting a regulatory role for ROS of mitochondrial origin as signaling molecules in autophagy, leading, under different circumstances, to either survival or cell death. We then discuss the relationship between mitochondria and autophagosomes and propose that mitochondria have an essential role in autophagosome biogenesis. 相似文献

Many solid tumor cells exhibit mitochondrial respiratory impairment; however, the mechanisms of such impairment in cancer development remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that SNU human hepatoma cells with declined mitochondrial respiratory activity showed decreased expression of mitochondrial 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase/lyase (mtOGG1), a mitochondrial DNA repair enzyme; similar results were obtained with human hepatocellular carcinoma tissues. Among several OGG1-2 variants with a mitochondrial-targeting sequence (OGG1-2a, -2b, -2c, -2d, and -2e), OGG1-2a was the major mitochondrial isoform in all examined hepatoma cells. Interestingly, hepatoma cells with low mtOGG1 levels showed delayed cell growth and increased intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Knockdown of OGG1-2 isoforms in Chang-L cells, which have active mitochondrial respiration with high mtOGG1 levels, significantly decreased cellular respiration and cell growth, and increased intracellular ROS. Overexpression of OGG1-2a in SNU423 cells, which have low mtOGG1 levels, effectively recovered cellular respiration and cell growth activities, and decreased intracellular ROS. Taken together, our results suggest that mtOGG1 plays an important role in maintaining mitochondrial respiration, thereby contributing to cell growth of hepatoma cells. 相似文献

Recent studies have described the occurrence of chromosomal abnormalities and mitochondrial dysfunction in human stem/stromal cells (SCs), particularly after extensive passaging in vitro and/or expansion under low oxygen tensions. To deepen this knowledge we investigated the influence of hypoxia (2% O(2)) and prolonged passaging (>P10) of human bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) and adipose-derived stromal cells (ASCs) on the expression of genes involved in DNA repair and cell-cycle regulation pathways, as well as on the occurrence of microsatellite instability and changes in telomere length. Our results show that hypoxic conditions induce an immediate and concerted down-regulation of genes involved in DNA repair and damage response pathways (MLH1, RAD51, BRCA1, and Ku80), concomitantly with the occurrence of microsatellite instability while maintaining telomere length. We further searched for mutations occurring in the mitochondrial genome, and monitored changes in intracellular ATP content, membrane potential and mitochondrial DNA content. Hypoxia led to a simultaneous decrease in ATP content and in the number of mitochondrial genomes, whereas the opposite effect was observed after prolonged passaging. Moreover, we show that neither hypoxia nor prolonged passaging significantly affected the integrity of the mitochondrial genome. Ultimately, we present evidence on how hypoxia selectively impacts the cellular response of BMSCs and ASCs, thus pointing for the need to optimize oxygen tension according to the cell source. 相似文献

Mitochondrial fission and fusion mediators, hFis1 and OPA1, modulate cellular senescence 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

The number and morphology of mitochondria within a cell are precisely regulated by the mitochondrial fission and fusion machinery. The human protein, hFis1, participates in mitochondrial fission by recruiting the Drp1 into the mitochondria. Using short hairpin RNA, we reduced the expression levels of hFis1 in mammalian cells. Cells lacking hFis1 showed sustained elongation of mitochondria and underwent significant cellular morphological changes, including enlargement, flattening, and increased cellular granularity. In these cells, staining for acidic senescence-associated beta-galactosidase activity was elevated, and the rate of cell proliferation was greatly reduced, indicating that cells lacking hFis1 undergo senescence-associated phenotypic changes. Reintroduction of the hFis1 gene into hFis1-depleted cells restored mitochondrial fragmentation and suppressed senescence-associated beta-galactosidase activity. Moreover, depletion of both hFis1 and OPA1, a critical component of mitochondrial fusion, resulted in extensive mitochondrial fragmentation and markedly rescued cells from senescence-associated phenotypic changes. Intriguingly, sustained elongation of mitochondria was associated with decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, increased reactive oxygen species production, and DNA damage. The data indicate that sustained mitochondrial elongation induces senescence-associated phenotypic changes that can be neutralized by mitochondrial fragmentation. Thus, one of the key functions of mitochondrial fission might be prevention of the sustained extensive mitochondrial elongation that triggers cellular senescence. 相似文献

Topoisomerase I (Top1), an abundant nuclear enzyme expressed throughout the cell cycle, relaxes DNA supercoiling by forming transient covalent DNA cleavage complexes. We show here that staurosporine, a ubiquitous inducer of apoptosis in mammalian cells, stabilizes cellular Top1 cleavage complexes. These complexes are formed indirectly as staurosporine cannot induce Top1 cleavage complexes in normal DNA with recombinant Top1 or nuclear extract from normal cells. In treated cells, staurosporine produces oxidative DNA lesions and generates reactive oxygen species (ROS). Quenching of these ROS by the antioxidant N-acetyl-l-cysteine or inhibition of the mitochondrial dependent production of ROS by the caspase inhibitor benzyloxycarbonyl-VAD prevents staurosporine-induced Top1 cleavage complexes. Down-regulation of Top1 by small interfering RNA decreases staurosporine-induced apoptotic DNA fragmentation. We propose that Top1 cleavage complexes resulting from oxidative DNA lesions generated by ROS in staurosporine-treated cells contribute to the full apoptotic response. 相似文献

AimsTemporin-1CEa, a 17-residue antimicrobial peptide, is known to exert broad-spectrum anticancer activity that acts preferentially on cancer cells instead of normal cells. However, the mechanism of cancer cell death induced by temporin-1CEa is weakly understood.Main methodsHere, we investigated the cytotoxic and membrane-disrupting effects of temporin-1CEa on human breast cancer cell line Bcap-37, using MTT assay, electronic microscope observation, fluorescence imaging and flow cytometry analysis.Key findingsThe MTT assay indicated that one-hour temporin-1CEa treatment led to rapid cell death in either caspase-dependent or -independent manner. The electronic microscope observation suggested that temporin-1CEa exposure resulted in profound morphological changes in Bcap-37 cells. The fluorescence imaging and flow cytometry analysis demonstrated that temporin-1CEa exhibited membrane-disrupting property characterized by induction of cell-surface phosphatidylserine exposure, elevation of plasma membrane permeability, and rapid transmembrane potential depolarization. Moreover, temporin-1CEa might also induce rapid cell death through mitochondria-involved mechanisms, including rapid intracellular Ca2 + leakage, collapse of mitochondrial membrane potential (Δφm) and over-generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).SignificanceIn summary, the present study indicates that temporin-1CEa triggers a rapid cytotoxicity in Bcap-37 cells through membrane-destruction and intracellular mechanisms involving mitochondria. These intracellular mechanisms and direct membrane-destruction effect were evaluated helping to understand the detail action of antimicrobial peptides in mammalian cancer cells. 相似文献

Proliferating mammalian cells exhibit a broad spectrum of responses to oxidative stress, depending on the stress level encountered. Very low levels of hydrogen peroxide, e.g., 3 to 15 microM, or 0.1 to 0.5 micromol/10(7) cells, cause a significant mitogenic response, 25% to 45 % growth stimulation. Greater concentrations of H2O2, 120 to 150 microM, or 2 to 5 micromol/10(7) cells, cause a temporary growth arrest that appears to protect cells from excess energy use and DNA damage. After 4-6 h of temporary growth arrest, many cells will exhibit up to a 40-fold transient adaptive response in which genes for oxidant protection and damage repair are preferentially expressed. After 18 h of H2O2 adaptation (including the 4-6 h of temporary growth arrest) cells exhibit maximal protection against oxidative stress. The H2O2 originally added is metabolized within 30-40 min, and if no more is added the cells will gradually de-adapt, so that by 36 h after the initial H2O2 stimulus they have returned to their original level of H2O2 sensitivity. At H2O2 concentrations of 250 to 400 microM, or 9 to 14 micromol/10(7) cells, mammalian fibroblasts are not able to adapt but instead enter a permanently growth-arrested state in which they appear to perform most normal cell functions but never divide again. This state of permanent growth arrest has often been confused with cell death in toxicity studies relying solely on cell proliferation assays as measures of viability. If the oxidative stress level is further increased to 0.5 to 1.0 mM H2O2, or 15 to 30 micromol/10(7) cells, apoptosis results. This oxidative stress-induced apoptosis involves nuclear condensation, loss of mitochondrial transmembrane potential, degradation/down-regulation of mitochondrial mRNAs and rRNAs, and degradation/laddering of both nuclear and mitochondrial DNA. At very high H2O2 concentrations of 5.0 to 10.0 mM, or 150 to 300 micromol/10(7) cells and above, cell membranes disintegrate, proteins and nucleic acids denature, and necrosis swiftly follows. Cultured cells grown in 20% oxygen are essentially preadapted or preselected to survive under conditions of oxidative stress. If cells are instead grown in 3% oxygen, much closer to physiological cellular levels, they are more sensitive to an oxidative challenge but exhibit far less accumulated oxidant damage. This broad spectrum of cellular responses to oxidant stress, depending on the amount of oxidant applied and the concentration of oxygen in the cell culture system, provides for a new paradigm of cellular oxidative stress responses. 相似文献
