The purpose of the present study was to visualize myoglobin-facilitated oxygen delivery to mitochondria at a critical mitochondrial oxygen supply in single isolated cardiomyocytes of rats. Using the autofluorescence of mitochondrial reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (phosphate) (NAD(P)H), the mitochondrial oxygen supply was imaged from approximately 1.4 microm inside the cell surface at a subcellular spatial resolution. Significant radial gradients of intracellular oxygenation were produced by superfusing the cell suspension with a mixed gas containing 2-4% oxygen while stimulating mitochondrial respiration with an uncoupler of oxidative phosphorylation. Augmentation of the NAD(P)H fluorescence started from the core of the cell (anoxic core) and progressively expanded toward the plasma membrane, as the extracellular Po(2) was lowered. Inactivation of cytosolic myoglobin by 5 mM NaNO(2) significantly enlarged such anoxic regions. Nitrite affected neither mitochondrial respiration in uncoupled cells nor the relationship between Po(2) and the NAD(P)H fluorescence in coupled cells. Thus we conclude that myoglobin significantly facilitates intracellular oxygen transport at a critical level of mitochondrial oxygen supply in single cardiomyocytes. 相似文献

A rotating bioreactor for the cell/tissue culture should be operated to obtain sufficient nutrient transfer and avoid damage to the culture materials. Thus, the objective of the present study is to determine the appropriate suspension conditions for the bead/cell distribution and evaluate oxygen transport in the rotating wall vessel (RWV) bioreactor. A numerical analysis of the RWV bioreactor is conducted by incorporating the Eulerian-Eulerian multiphase and oxygen transport equations. The bead size and rotating speed are the control variables in the calculations. The present results show that the rotating speed for appropriate suspensions needs to be increased as the size of the bead/cell increases: 10 rpm for 200 microm; 12 rpm for 300 microm; 14 rpm for 400 microm; 18 rpm for 600 microm. As the rotating speed and the bead size increase from 10 rpm/200 microm to 18 rpm/600 microm, the mean oxygen concentration in the 80% midzone of the vessel is increased by approximately 85% after 1-h rotation due to the high convective flow for 18 rpm/600 microm case as compared to 10 rpm/200 microm case. The present results may serve as criteria to set the operating parameters for a RWV bioreactor, such as the size of beads and the rotating speed, according to the growth of cell aggregates. In addition, it might provide a design parameter for an advanced suspension bioreactor for 3-D engineered cell and tissue cultures. 相似文献

Apoptotic cell death following injury of vascular endothelium is assumed to play an important role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. In this report, we demonstrate that high density lipoproteins (HDL), a major anti-atherogenic lipoprotein fraction, protect endothelial cells against growth factor deprivation-induced apoptosis. HDL blocked the mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis by inhibiting dissipation of mitochondrial potential (Deltapsi(m)), generation of reactive oxygen species, and release of cytochrome c into the cytoplasm. As a consequence, HDL prevented activation of caspases 9 and 3 and apoptotic alterations of the plasma membrane such as increase of permeability and translocation of phosphatidylserine. Treatment of endothelial cells with HDL induced activation of the protein kinase Akt, an ubiquitous transducer of anti-apoptotic signals, and led to phosphorylation of BAD, a major Akt substrate. Suppression of Akt activity both by wortmannin and LY-294002 or by a dominant negative Akt mutant abolished the anti-apoptotic effect of HDL. Two bioactive lysosphingolipids present in HDL particles, sphingosylphosphorylcholine and lysosulfatide, fully mimicked the survival effect of HDL by blocking the mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis and potently activating Akt. In conclusion, the present study identifies HDL as a carrier of endogenous endothelial survival factors and suggests that inhibition of endothelial apoptosis by HDL-associated lysosphingolipids may represent an important and novel aspect of the anti-atherogenic activity of HDL. 相似文献

Glutamate excitotoxicity amplifies neuronal death following stroke. We have explored the mechanisms underlying the collapse of mitochondrial potential (Deltapsi(m)) and loss of [Ca(2+)](c) homeostasis in rat hippocampal neurons in culture following toxic glutamate exposure. The collapse of Deltapsi(m) is multiphasic and Ca(2+)-dependent. Glutamate induced a decrease in NADH autofluorescence which preceded the loss of Deltapsi(m). Both the decrease in NADH signal and the loss of Deltapsi(m) were suppressed by Ru360 and both were delayed by inhibition of PARP (by 3-AB or DPQ). During this period, addition of mitochondrial substrates (methyl succinate and TMPD-ascorbate) or buffering [Ca(2+)](i) (using BAPTA-AM or EGTA-AM), rescued Deltapsi(m). These data suggest that mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake activates PARP which in turn depletes NADH, promoting the initial collapse of Deltapsi(m). After > approximately 20 min, buffering Ca(2+) or substrate addition failed to restore Deltapsi(m). In neurons from cyclophilin D-/- (cypD-/-) mice or in cells treated with cyclosporine A, removal of Ca(2+) restored Deltapsi(m) even after 20 min of glutamate exposure, suggesting involvement of the mPTP in the irreversible depolarisation seen in WT cells. Thus, mitochondrial depolarisation represents two consecutive but distinct processes driving cell death, the first of which is reversible while the second is not. 相似文献

Inhibition of the mitochondrial adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT) by long-chain acyl-CoA esters has been proposed to contribute to cellular dysfunction in obesity and type 2 diabetes by increasing formation of reactive oxygen species and adenosine via effects on the coenzyme Q redox state, mitochondrial membrane potential (Deltapsi) and cytosolic ATP concentrations. We here show that 5 microm palmitoyl-CoA increases the ratio of reduced to oxidized coenzyme Q (QH(2)/Q) by 42 +/- 9%, Deltapsi by 13 +/- 1 mV (9%), and the intramitochondrial ATP/ADP ratio by 352 +/- 34%, and decreases the extramitochondrial ATP/ADP ratio by 63 +/- 4% in actively phosphorylating mitochondria. The latter reduction is expected to translate into a 24% higher extramitochondrial AMP concentration. Furthermore, palmitoyl-CoA induced concentration-dependent H(2)O(2) formation, which can only partly be explained by its effect on Deltapsi. Although all measured fluxes and intermediate concentrations were affected by palmitoyl-CoA, modular kinetic analysis revealed that this resulted mainly from inhibition of the ANT. Through Metabolic Control Analysis, we then determined to what extent the ANT controls the investigated mitochondrial properties. Under steady-state conditions, the ANT moderately controlled oxygen uptake (control coefficient C = 0.13) and phosphorylation (C = 0.14) flux. It controlled intramitochondrial (C = -0.70) and extramitochondrial ATP/ADP ratios (C = 0.23) more strongly, whereas the control exerted over the QH(2)/Q ratio (C = -0.04) and Deltapsi (C = -0.01) was small. Quantitative assessment of the effects of palmitoyl-CoA showed that the mitochondrial properties that were most strongly controlled by the ANT were affected the most. Our observations suggest that long-chain acyl-CoA esters may contribute to cellular dysfunction in obesity and type 2 diabetes through effects on cellular energy metabolism and production of reactive oxygen species. 相似文献

Size specification of macromolecular assemblies in the cytoplasm is poorly understood [1]. In principle, assemblies could scale with cell size or use intrinsic mechanisms. For the mitotic spindle, scaling with cell size is expected, because the function of this assembly is to physically move sister chromatids into the center of nascent daughter cells. Eggs of Xenopus laevis are among the largest cells known that cleave completely during cell division. Cell length in this organism changes by two orders of magnitude ( approximately 1200 microm to approximately 12 microm) while it develops from a fertilized egg into a tadpole [2]. We wondered whether, and how, mitotic spindle length and morphology adapt to function at these different length scales. Here, we show that spindle length increases with cell length in small cells, but in very large cells spindle length approaches an upper limit of approximately 60 microm. Further evidence for an upper limit to spindle length comes from an embryonic extract system that recapitulates mitotic spindle assembly in a test tube. We conclude that early mitotic spindle length in Xenopus laevis is uncoupled from cell length, reaching an upper bound determined by mechanisms that are intrinsic to the spindle. 相似文献

For clinical utility, cardiac grafts should be thick and compact, and contain physiologic density of metabolically active, differentiated cells. This involves the need to control the levels of nutrients, and most critically oxygen, throughout the construct volume. Most culture systems involve diffusional transport within the constructs, a situation associated with gradients of oxygen concentration, cell density, cell viability, and function. The goal of our study was to measure diffusional gradients of oxygen in statically cultured cardiac constructs, and to correlate oxygen gradients to the spatial distributions of cell number and cell viability. Using microelectrodes, we measured oxygen distribution in a disc-shaped constructs (3.6 mm diameter, 1.8 mm thickness) based on neonatal rat cardiomyocytes cultured on collagen scaffolds for 16 days in static dishes. To rationalize experimental data, a mathematical model of oxygen distribution was derived as a function of cell density, viability, and spatial position within the construct. Oxygen concentration and cell viability decreased linearly and the live cell density decreased exponentially with the distance from the construct surface. Physiological density of live cells was present only within the first 128 microm of the construct thickness. Medium flow significantly increased oxygen concentration within the construct, correlating with the improved tissue properties observed for constructs cultured in convectively mixed bioreactors. 相似文献

Hypoxia leads to a collapse in mitochondrial transmembrane potential (Deltapsi(M)), a fall in the ATP/ADP ratio, and finally cell death. Since (-)deprenyl directly modulates Deltapsi(M) and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by altering the respiratory function of mitochondria, we were interested in the dose-response relations of these effects. The changes in JC-1 red/green signal ratios {mitochondrial transmembrane potential}, and the changes in the cerium staining (intracellular ROS) in hypoxic and normoxic PC12 cell cultures were measured following 1 h of Argon hypoxia and 24 h of re-oxygenation in the absence and in the presence of various concentrations of (-)deprenyl. Deltapsi(M) shifted to lower values following hypoxia/re-oxygenation and all cells had decreased and uniform Deltapsi(M) levels. The amount of ROS increased. Following 24 h of treatment with various concentrations of (-)deprenyl during the re-oxygenation period, survival increased, the Deltapsi(M) shift caused by oxygen deprivation was reversed and the peroxy radical levels decreased except for at 10(-3) M. 相似文献

Increased hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production was observed in duodenal mitochondria obtained from broiler chickens with low feed efficiency (FE). As a decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential (Deltapsi(m)) due to mild uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation reduces reactive oxygen species production, this study was conducted to evaluate the effect of uncoupling on Deltapsi(m) and H2O2 production in duodenal mitochondria isolated from broilers with low (0.48+/-0.02) and high (0.68+/-0.01) FE. Membrane potential and H2O2 production were measured fluorometrically and in the presence of different levels of an uncoupler, carbonylcyanide-p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone (FCCP). The Deltapsi(m) was higher (P相似文献

Application of extremely low frequency pulsed DC electric fields that are frequency- and phase-matched with endogenous metabolic oscillations leads to greatly exaggerated neutrophil extension and metabolic resonance wherein oscillatory NAD(P)H amplitudes are increased. In the presence of a resonant field, migrating cell length grows from 10 to approximately 40 microm, as does the overall length of microfilament assemblies. In contrast, cells stop locomotion and become spherical when exposed to phase-mismatched fields. Although cellular effects were not found to be dependent on electrode type and buffer, they were sensitive to temporal constraints (phase and pulse length) and cell surface charge. We suggest an electromechanical coupling hypothesis wherein applied electric fields and cytoskeletal polymerization forces act together to overcome the surface/cortical tension of neutrophils, thus promoting net cytoskeletal assembly and heightened metabolic amplitudes. Metabolic resonance enhances reactive oxygen metabolic production by neutrophils. Furthermore, cellular DNA damage was observed after prolonged metabolic resonance using both single cell gel electrophoresis ('comet' assay) and 3'-OH DNA labeling using terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase. These results provide insights into transmembrane signal processing and cell interactions with weak electric fields. 相似文献

Polarographic microcoaxial needle electrodes were used to measure internal profiles of dissolved oxygen tension (Po(2)) within single Ca-alginate beads of different diameter containing entrapped cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. For the investigations, single beads coming from variable growing conditions and distinct cultivation stages were fixed in a special holding device. In dependence on microbial growth steep oxygen gradients were observed. The Oxygen penetration depth at steady state lay between 50 and 100 mum. After 8 h of cultivation time, the anaerobic space within the beads (phi 2 mm; cultivation in a packed bed reactor) is beginning at approximately 130 mum, whereas the anaerobic space within the beads (phi 2 mm) coming from the shaker flask culture is located approximately 440 mum below the bead surface. Surprisingly, steep gradients were also observed, when recording profiles from cell-free Ca-alginate beads of different diameter and alginate concentrations. The steep oxygen gradients apparently had to be interpreted as pseudo-Po(2)-gradients. These results were borne by several effects, such as formation of artifacts and diffusion barriers in front of the electrode tip or oxygen "availability" at the tip and consumption of oxygen by the electrode itself. These phenomena could be documented by microscopic observation and photography. Thus, to obtain real Po(2)-profiles it is important to be exactly informed about the physical, chemical, and biological properties of the material to be investigated. Furthermore, it is necessary to apply a special stepwise puncture technique with distinct step-in/step-out movements of the electrode: e.g., unidirectional or contradirectional puncture techniques.

Mitochondrial membrane potential (Deltapsi(m)) plays important roles in the normal function of cells and in pathobiochemical situations. The application of ion-selective electrodes for the measurement of Deltapsi(m) is important for studying normal biological reactions and pathways and mitochondrial diseases. We constructed and optimized a computerized device for real-time monitoring of the Deltapsi(m), which included modification of tetraphenylphosphonium (TPP(+))-selective membrane that improved reproducibility of the TPP(+)-selective electrode. Application of MATLAB software increased the sensitivity of the system. We tested our improved device for membrane potential measurements of isolated mitochondria (in absolute scale of millivolts). In addition, we assessed relative changes of Deltapsi(m) (as changes in TPP(+) concentration) of digitonin-permeabilized cells (hepatocytes, control transmitochondrial cybrids, HeLa G and BSC-40) after addition of substrates, inhibitors, and uncoupler of respiratory chain. Our system can be successfully used for studies of many aspects of the regulation of mitochondrial bioenergetics and as a diagnostic tool for mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation disorders. 相似文献

We examined the effects of different physiological concentrations of glucose on cytoplasmic Ca(2+) handling and mitochondrial membrane potential (Deltapsi(m)) and insulin secretion in single mouse islet cells. The threshold for both glucose-induced changes in Ca(2+) and Deltapsi(m) ranged from 6 to 8 mM. Glucose step-jumps resulted in sinusoidal oscillations of cytoplasmic Ca(2+), whereas Deltapsi(m) reached sustained plateaus with oscillations interposed on the top of these plateaus. The amplitude of the Ca(2+) rise (height of the peak) did not vary with glucose concentration, suggesting a "digital" rather than "analog" character of this aspect of the oscillatory Ca(2+) response. The average glucose-dependent elevation of cytoplasmic Ca(2+) concentration during glucose stimulation reached saturation at 8 mM stimulatory glucose, whereas Deltapsi(m) showed a linear glucose dose-response relationship over the range of stimulatory glucose concentrations (4-16 mM). Glucose-dependent increases in insulin secretion correlated well with Deltapsi(m), but not with average Ca(2+) concentration. These data show that an ATP-dependent K(+) channel-independent pathway is operative at the single cell level and suggest mitochondrial metabolism may be a determining factor in explaining graded, glucose concentration-dependent increases in insulin secretion. 相似文献

Differential regulation of doxorubicin-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis by Bcl-2 in mammary adenocarcinoma (MTLn3) cells 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Various anticancer drugs cause mitochondrial perturbations in association with apoptosis. Here we investigated the involvement of caspase- and Bcl-2-dependent pathways in doxorubicin-induced mitochondrial perturbations and apoptosis. For this purpose, we set up a novel three-color flow cytometric assay using rhodamine 123, annexin V-allophycocyanin, and propidium iodide to assess the involvement of the mitochondria in apoptosis caused by doxorubicin in the breast cancer cell line MTLn3. Doxorubicin-induced apoptosis was preceded by up-regulation of CD95 and CD95L and a collapse of mitochondrial membrane potential (Deltapsi) occurring prior to phosphatidylserine externalization. This drop in Deltapsi was independent of caspase activity, since benzyloxycarbonyl-Val-Ala-dl-Asp-fluoromethylketone did not inhibit it. Benzyloxycarbonyl-Val-Ala-dl-Asp-fluoromethylketone also blocked activation of caspase-8, thus excluding an involvement of the death receptor pathway in Deltapsi dissipation. Furthermore, although overexpression of Bcl-2 in MTLn3 cells inhibited apoptosis, dissipation of Deltapsi was still observed. No decrease in Deltapsi was observed in cells undergoing etoposide-induced apoptosis. Immunofluorescent analysis of Deltapsi and cytochrome c localization on a cell-to-cell basis indicates that the collapse of Deltapsi and cytochrome c release are mutually independent in both normal and Bcl-2-overexpressing cells. Together, these data indicate that doxorubicin-induced dissipation of the mitochondrial membrane potential precedes phosphatidylserine externalization and is independent of a caspase- or Bcl-2-controlled checkpoint. 相似文献

Transport of the amino acids L-valine, L-lysine, and L-glutamic acid and of sucrose was studied in plasma membrane vesicles isolated from developing cotyledons of pea (Pisum sativum L. cv. Marzia). The vesicles were obtained by aqueous polymer two-phase partitioning of a microsomal fraction and the uptake was determined after the imposition of a H(+)-gradient (DeltapH, inside alkaline) and/or an electrical gradient (Deltapsi, inside negative) across the vesicle membrane. In the absence of gradients, a distinct, time-dependent uptake of L-valine was measured, which could be enhanced about 2-fold by the imposition of DeltapH. The imposition of Deltapsi stimulated the influx of valine by 20%, both in the absence and in the presence of DeltapH. Uptake of L-lysine was more strongly stimulated by Deltapsi than by DeltapH, and its DeltapH-dependent uptake was enhanced about 6-fold by the simultaneous imposition of Deltapsi. In the absence of gradients the uptake of L-glutamic acid was about 2-fold higher than that of L-valine, but it was not detectably affected by DeltapH or Deltapsi. Although the transport of sucrose was very low, a stimulating effect of DeltapH could be clearly demonstrated. The results lend further support to the contention that during seed development cotyledonary cells employ H(+)-symporters for the active uptake of sucrose and amino acids. 相似文献

Time-resolved imaging was used to examine the use of pulsed laser microbeam irradiation to produce cell lysis. Lysis was accomplished through the delivery of 6 ns, lambda=532 nm laser pulses via a 40x, 0.8 NA objective to a location 10 microm above confluent monolayers of PtK2 cells. The process dynamics were examined at cell surface densities of 600 and 1000 cells/mm2 and pulse energies corresponding to 0.7x, 1x, 2x, and 3x the threshold for plasma formation. The cell lysis process was imaged at times of 0.5 ns to 50 micros after laser pulse delivery and revealed the processes of plasma formation, pressure wave propagation, and cavitation bubble dynamics. Cavitation bubble expansion was the primary agent of cell lysis with the zone of lysed cells fully established within 600 ns of laser pulse delivery. The spatial extent of cell lysis increased with pulse energy but decreased with cell surface density. Hydrodynamic analysis indicated that cells subject to transient shear stresses in excess of a critical value were lysed while cells exposed to lower shear stresses remained adherent and viable. This critical shear stress is independent of laser pulse energy and varied from approximately 60-85 kPa for cell monolayers cultured at a density of 600 cells/mm2 to approximately 180-220 kPa for a surface density of 1000 cells/mm2. The implications for single cell lysis and microsurgery are discussed. 相似文献

The mitotic spindle of animal cells is a bipolar array of microtubules that guides chromosome segregation during cell division. It has been proposed that during spindle assembly chromatin can positively influence microtubule stability at a distance from its surface throughout its neighboring cytoplasm. However, such an "à distance" effect has never been visualized directly. Here, we have used centrosomal microtubules and chromatin beads to probe the regulation of microtubule behavior around chromatin in Xenopus egg extracts. We show that, in this system, chromatin does affect microtubule formation at a distance, inducing preferential orientation of centrosomal microtubules in its direction. Moreover, this asymmetric distribution of microtubules is translated into a directional migration of centrosomal asters toward chromatin and their steady-state repositioning within 10 microm of chromatin. To our knowledge, this is the first direct evidence of a long-range guidance effect at the sub-cellular level. 相似文献

Decreases in GSH pools detected during ischemia sensitize neurons to excitotoxic damage. Thermodynamic analysis predicts that partial GSH depletion will cause an oxidative shift in the thiol redox potential. To investigate the acute bioenergetic consequences, neurons were exposed to monochlorobimane (mBCl), which depletes GSH by forming a fluorescent conjugate. Neurons transfected with redox-sensitive green fluorescent protein showed a positive shift in thiol redox potential synchronous with the formation of the conjugate. Mitochondria within neurons treated with mBCl for 1 h failed to hyperpolarize upon addition of oligomycin to inhibit their ATP synthesis. A decreased ATP turnover was confirmed by monitoring neuronal oxygen consumption in parallel with mitochondrial membrane potential (Deltapsi(m)) and GSH-mBCl formation. mBCl progressively decreased cell respiration, with no effect on mitochondrial proton leak or maximal respiratory capacity, suggesting adequate glycolysis and a functional electron transport chain. This approach to "state 4" could be mimicked by the adenine nucleotide translocator inhibitor bongkrekic acid, which did not further decrease respiration when administered after mBCl. The cellular ATP/ADP ratio was decreased by mBCl, and consistent with mitochondrial ATP export failure, respiration could not respond to an increased cytoplasmic ATP demand by plasma membrane Na(+) cycling; instead, mitochondria depolarized. More prolonged mBCl exposure induced mitochondrial failure, with Deltapsi(m) collapse followed by cytoplasmic Ca(2+) deregulation. The initial bioenergetic consequence of neuronal GSH depletion in this model is thus an inhibition of ATP export, which precedes other forms of mitochondrial dysfunction. 相似文献

We proposed that inhibition of mitochondrial adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT) by long chain acyl-CoA (LCAC) underlies the mechanism associating obesity and type 2 diabetes. Here we test that after long-term exposure to a high-fat diet (HFD): (i) there is no adaptation of the mitochondrial compartment that would hinder such ANT inhibition, and (ii) ANT has significant control of the relevant aspects of oxidative phosphorylation. After 7 weeks, HFD induced a 24+/-6% increase in hepatic LCAC concentration and accumulation of the oxidative stress marker N(epsilon)-(carboxymethyl)lysine. HFD did not significantly affect mitochondrial copy number, oxygen uptake, membrane potential (Deltapsi), ADP/O ratio, and the content of coenzyme Q(9), cytochromes b and a+a(3). Modular kinetic analysis showed that the kinetics of substrate oxidation, phosphorylation, proton leak, ATP-production and ATP-consumption were not influenced significantly. After HFD-feeding ANT exerted considerable control over oxygen uptake (control coefficient C=0.14) and phosphorylation fluxes (C=0.15), extra- (C=0.23) and intramitochondrial (C=-0.56) ATP/ADP ratios, and Deltapsi (C=-0.11). We conclude that although HFD induces accumulation of LCAC and N(epsilon)-(carboxymethyl)lysine, oxidative phosphorylation does not adapt to these metabolic challenges. Furthermore, ANT retains control of fluxes and intermediates, making inhibition of this enzyme a more probable link between obesity and type 2 diabetes. 相似文献
