Mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) is thought to determine cell death under oxidative stress. However, MPT inhibitors only partially suppress oxidative stress-induced cell death. Here, we demonstrate that cells in which MPT is inhibited undergo cell death under oxidative stress. When C6 cells were exposed to 250 μM t-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BuOOH), the loss of a membrane potential-sensitive dye (tetramethylrhodamine ethyl ester, TMRE) from mitochondria was observed, indicating mitochondrial depolarization leading to cell death. The fluorescence of calcein entrapped in mitochondria prior to addition of t-BuOOH was significantly decreased to 70% after mitochondrial depolarization. Cyclosporin A suppressed the decrease in mitochondrial calcein fluorescence, but not mitochondrial depolarization. These results show that t-BuOOH induced cell death even when it did not induce MPT. Prior to MPT, lactate production and respiration were hampered. Taken together, these data indicate that the decreased turnover rate of glycolysis and mitochondrial respiration may be as vital as MPT for cell death induced under moderate oxidative stress. 相似文献

In recent years, the role of the mitochondria in both apoptotic and necrotic cell death has received considerable attention.
An increase of mitochondrial membrane permeability is one of the key events in apoptotic or necrotic death, although the details
of the mechanism involved remain to be elucidated. The mitochondrial membrane permeability transition (MPT) is a Ca2+-dependent increase of mitochondrial membrane permeability that leads to loss of Δψ, mitochondrial swelling, and rupture of
the outer mitochondrial membrane. The MPT is thought to occur after the opening of a channel that is known as the permeability
transition pore (PTP), which putatively consists of the voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC), the adenine nucleotide translocator
(ANT), cyclophilin D (Cyp D: a mitochondrial peptidyl prolyl-cis, trans-isomerase), and other molecule(s). Recently, significant progress has been made by studies performed with mice lacking Cyp
D at several laboratories, which have convincingly demonstrated that Cyp D is essential for the MPT to occur and that the
Cyp D-dependent MPT regulates some forms of necrotic, but not apoptotic, cell death. Cyp D-deficient mice have also been used
to show that the Cyp D-dependent MPT plays a crucial role in ischemia/reperfusion injury. The anti-apoptotic proteins Bcl-2
and Bcl-xL have the ability to block the MPT, and can therefore block MPT-dependent necrosis in addition to their well-established ability
to inhibit apoptosis. 相似文献

Dysregulation of Ca2+ has long been implicated to be important in cell injury. A Ca2+-linked process important in necrosis and apoptosis (or necrapoptosis) is the mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT). In the MPT, large conductance permeability transition (PT) pores open that make the mitochondrial inner membrane abruptly permeable to solutes up to 1500 Da. The importance of Ca2+ in MPT induction varies with circumstance. Ca2+ overload is sufficient to induce the MPT. By contrast after ischemia-reperfusion to cardiac myocytes, Ca2+ overload is the consequence of bioenergetic failure after the MPT rather than its cause. In other models, such as cytotoxicity from Reye-related agents and storage-reperfusion injury to liver grafts, Ca2+ appears to be permissive to MPT onset. Lastly in oxidative stress, increased mitochondrial Ca2+ and ROS generation act synergistically to produce the MPT and cell death. Thus, the exact role of Ca2+ for inducing the MPT and cell death depends on the particular biologic setting. 相似文献

In the past decade, the genetic causes underlying familial forms of many neurodegenerative disorders, such as Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Friedreich ataxia, hereditary spastic paraplegia, dominant optic atrophy, Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 2A, neuropathy ataxia and retinitis pigmentosa, and Leber's hereditary optic atrophy have been elucidated. However, the common pathogenic mechanisms of neuronal death are still largely unknown. Recently, mitochondrial dysfunction has emerged as a potential 'lowest common denominator' linking these disorders. In this review, we discuss the body of evidence supporting the role of mitochondria in the pathogenesis of hereditary neurodegenerative diseases. We summarize the principal features of genetic diseases caused by abnormalities of mitochondrial proteins encoded by the mitochondrial or the nuclear genomes. We then address genetic diseases where mutant proteins are localized in multiple cell compartments, including mitochondria and where mitochondrial defects are likely to be directly caused by the mutant proteins. Finally, we describe examples of neurodegenerative disorders where mitochondrial dysfunction may be 'secondary' and probably concomitant with degenerative events in other cell organelles, but may still play an important role in the neuronal decay. Understanding the contribution of mitochondrial dysfunction to neurodegeneration and its pathophysiological basis will significantly impact our ability to develop more effective therapies for neurodegenerative diseases. 相似文献

The electron transport chain of mitochondria is a major source of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which play a critical role in augmenting the Ca2+-induced mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT). Mitochondrial release of superoxide anions (O2−) from the intermembrane space (IMS) to the cytosol is mediated by voltage dependent anion channels (VDAC) in the outer membrane. Here, we examined whether closure of VDAC increases intramitochondrial oxidative stress by blocking efflux of O2− from the IMS and sensitizing to the Ca2+-induced MPT. Treatment of isolated rat liver mitochondria with 5 μM G3139, an 18-mer phosphorothioate blocker of VDAC, accelerated onset of the MPT by 6.8 ± 1.4 min within a range of 100-250 μM Ca2+. G3139-mediated acceleration of the MPT was reversed by 20 μM butylated hydroxytoluene, a water soluble antioxidant. Pre-treatment of mitochondria with G3139 also increased accumulation of O2− in mitochondria, as monitored by dihydroethidium fluorescence, and permeabilization of the mitochondrial outer membrane with digitonin reversed the effect of G3139 on O2− accumulation. Mathematical modeling of generation and turnover of O2− within the IMS indicated that closure of VDAC produces a 1.55-fold increase in the steady-state level of mitochondrial O2−. In conclusion, closure of VDAC appears to impede the efflux of superoxide anions from the IMS, resulting in an increased steady-state level of O2−, which causes an internal oxidative stress and sensitizes mitochondria toward the Ca2+-induced MPT. 相似文献

Brain energy metabolism and mitochondrial dysfunction in acute and chronic hepatic encephalopathy 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
One proposed mechanism for acute and chronic hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a disturbance in cerebral energy metabolism. It also reviews the current status of this mechanism in both acute and chronic HE, as well as in other hyperammonemic disorders. It also reviews abnormalities in glycolysis, lactate metabolism, citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation as well as associated energy impairment. Additionally, the role of mitochondrial permeability transition (mPT), a recently established factor in the pathogenesis of HE and hyperammonemia, is emphasized. Energy failure appears to be an important pathogenetic component of both acute and chronic HE and a potential target for therapy. 相似文献

Participation of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore in nitric oxide-induced plant cell death 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13

In the present study, we investigated the involvement of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (PTP) in nitric oxide (NO)-induced plant cell death. NO donors such as sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine inhibited growth and caused death in suspension-cultured cells of Citrus sinensis. Cells treated with SNP showed chromatin condensation and fragmentation, characteristic of apoptosis. SNP caused loss of the mitochondrial membrane electrical potential, which was prevented by cyclosporin A (CsA), a specific inhibitor of PTP formation. CsA also prevented the nuclear apoptosis and subsequent Citrus cell death induced by NO. These findings indicate that mitochondrial PTP formation is involved in the signaling pathway by which NO induces apoptosis in cultured Citrus cells. 相似文献

The mitochondrial permeability transition pore and its involvement in cell death and in disease pathogenesis 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Current research on the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (PTP) and its role in cell death faces a paradox. Initially
considered as an in vitro artifact of little pathophysiological relevance, in recent years the PTP has received considerable attention as a potential
mechanism for the execution of cell death. The recent successful use of PTP desensitizers in several disease paradigms leaves
little doubt about its relevance in pathophysiology; and emerging findings that link the PTP to key cellular signalling pathways
are increasing the interest on the pore as a pharmacological target. Yet, recent genetic data have challenged popular views
on the molecular nature of the PTP, and called into question many early conclusions about its structure. Here we review basic
concepts about PTP structure, function and regulation within the framework of intracellular death signalling, and its role
in disease pathogenesis. 相似文献

Etoposide (VP-16) is known to promote cell apoptosis either in cancer or in normal cells as a side effect. This fact is preceded by the induction of several mitochondrial events, including increase in Bax/Bcl-2 ratio followed by cytochrome c release and consequent activation of caspase-9 and -3, reduction of ATP levels, depolarization of membrane potential (DeltaPsi) and rupture of the outer membrane. These events are apoptotic factors essentially associated with the induction of the mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT). VP-16 has been shown to stimulate the Ca2+-dependent MPT induction similarly to prooxidants and to promote apoptosis by oxidative stress mechanisms, which is prevented by glutathione (GSH) and N-acetylcysteine (NAC). Therefore, the aim of this work was to study the effects of antioxidants and thiol protecting agents on MPT promoted by VP-16, attempting to identify the underlying mechanisms on VP-16-induced apoptosis. The increased sensitivity of isolated mitochondria to Ca2+-induced swelling, Ca2+ release, depolarization of DeltaPsi and uncoupling of respiration promoted by VP-16, which are prevented by cyclosporine A proving that VP-16 induces the MPT, are also efficiently prevented by ascorbate, the primary reductant of the phenoxyl radicals produced by VP-16. The thiol reagents GSH, dithiothreitol and N-ethylmaleimide, which have been reported to prevent the MPT induction, also protect this event promoted by VP-16. The inhibition of the VP-16-induced MPT by antioxidants agrees with the prevention of etoposide-induced apoptosis by GSH and NAC and suggests the generation of oxidant species as a potential mechanism underlying the MPT that may trigger the release of mitochondrial apoptogenic factors responsible for apoptotic cascade activation. 相似文献

Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is the major neurological disorder associated with liver disease. It presents in chronic and acute forms, and astrocytes are the major neural cells involved. While the principal etiological factor in the pathogenesis of HE is increased levels of blood and brain ammonia, glutamine, a byproduct of ammonia metabolism, has also been implicated in its pathogenesis. This article reviews the current status of glutamine in the pathogenesis of HE, particularly its involvement in some of the events triggered by ammonia, including mitochondrial dysfunction, generation of oxidative stress, and alterations in signaling mechanisms, including activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) and nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB). Mechanisms by which glutamine contributes to astrocyte swelling/brain edema associated with acute liver failure (ALF) will also be described. 相似文献

Recent studies suggest that the function of the blood–brain barrier (BBB) is not static under normal physiologic conditions and is likely altered in neurodegenerative disease. Prevailing thinking about CNS function, and neurodegenerative disease in particular, is neurocentric excluding the impact of factors outside the CNS. This review challenges this perspective and discusses recent reports suggesting the involvement of peripheral factors including toxins and elements of adaptive immunity that may not only play a role in pathogenesis, but also progression of neurodegenerative diseases. Central to this view is neuroinflammation. Several studies indicate that the neuroinflammatory changes that accompany neurodegeneration affect the BBB or its function by altering transport systems, enhancing immune cell entry, or influencing the BBB's role as a signaling interface. Such changes impair the BBB's normal homeostatic function and affect neural activity. Moreover, recent studies reveal that alterations in BBB and its transporters affect the entry of drugs used to treat neurodegenerative diseases. Incorporating BBB compromise and dysfunction into our view of neurodegenerative disease leads to the inclusion of peripheral mediators in its pathogenesis and progression. In addition, this changing view of the BBB raises interesting new therapeutic possibilities for drug delivery as well as treatment strategies designed to reinstate normal barrier function. 相似文献

Effects of Wild-Type and Mutated Copper/Zinc Superoxide Dismutase on Neuronal Survival and l-DOPA-Induced Toxicity in Postnatal Midbrain Culture 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:2

Abstract: Mutations in the free radical-scavenging enzyme copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (Cu/Zn-SOD) are associated with neuronal death in humans and mice. Here, we examine the effects of human wild-type (WT SOD) and mutant (Gly93 → Ala; G93A) Cu/Zn-SOD enzyme on the fate of postnatal midbrain neurons. One-week-old cultures from transgenic mice expressing WT SOD enzyme had significantly more midbrain neurons and fewer necrotic and apoptotic neurons than non-transgenic cultures. In contrast, 1-week-old cultures from transgenic G93A mice expressing mutant SOD enzyme had significantly fewer midbrain neurons and more necrotic and apoptotic neurons than nontransgenic cultures. To subject postnatal midbrain neurons to oxidative stress, cultures were incubated with l -DOPA. l -DOPA at 200 µ M caused ∼50% loss of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)-positive neurons in nontransgenic cultures and even greater loss in transgenic G93A cultures; no alterations were noted in GABA neuron numbers. In contrast, 200 µ M l -DOPA did not cause any significant reductions in TH-positive or GABA neuron numbers in transgenic WT SOD cultures. l -DOPA at 50 µ M had opposite effects, in that it significantly increased TH-positive, but not GABA neuron numbers in transgenic WT SOD and G93A and in nontransgenic cultures. These results indicate that increased amounts of WT SOD enzyme promote cell survival and protect against l -DOPA-induced dopaminergic neurotoxicity, whereas increased amounts of mutated Cu/Zn-SOD enzyme have inverse effects. As the spontaneous loss and l -DOPA-induced loss of postnatal dopaminergic midbrain neurons appear to be mediated by free radicals, our study supports the view that mutated Cu/Zn-SOD enzyme kills cells by oxidative stress. 相似文献
