Many studies have demonstrated the protective effects of Bcl-x(L) against both apoptotic and necrotic cell death, but the mode of action of Bcl-x(L) remains unclear. This work analyzed effects of Bcl-x(L) overexpression on cellular levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), intracellular calcium ([Ca(2+)](i)), and mitochondrial membrane potential (DeltaPsi(m)) in cultured mouse primary astrocytes after exposure to glucose deprivation (GD) or hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)). Upon exposure to GD or H(2)O(2), uninfected and Lac-Z-expressing astrocytes showed an immediate, rapid increase in ROS accumulation that was slowed and or reduced by Bcl-x(L). Changes in DeltaPsi(m) in response to the two insults differed. H(2)O(2) induced a decrease in DeltaPsi(m) that was initially greater in Bcl-x(L) cells, but then held stable. DeltaPsi(m) in control and Lac-Z-expressing cells initially declined more slowly, but after about 20 min showed rapid deterioration. Five hours of GD caused mitochondrial membrane hyperpolarization followed by a decrease in DeltaPsi(m,) which was not observed with Bcl-x(L) overexpression. Bcl-x(L) failed to inhibit the calcium dysregulation seen in control cells exposed to 400 microM H(2)O(2), but still improved cell survival. There was no increase in [Ca(2+)](i) with 5 h of GD. These data thus dissociate the effect of Bcl-x(L) on calcium homeostasis from effects on ROS, DeltaPsi(m,) and for H(2)O(2) exposure, cell survival. 相似文献

Phosphatidyl serine exposure during apoptosis precedes release of cytochrome c and decrease in mitochondrial transmembrane potential 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Time kinetics of phosphatidyl serine (PS) exposure were compared to other apoptotic parameters following different apoptotic stimuli. Our data indicate that anti-Fas treatment of L929sAhFas cells results in rapid exposure of PS, which precedes decrease in mitochondrial transmembrane potential (DeltaPsi(m)) and release of cytochrome c, indicating that PS exposure occurs independently of these mitochondrial events. Also during TNF-, etoposide- or staurosporine-mediated apoptosis in PC60 RI/RII cells, PS-positive cells were observed before they had a decreased DeltaPsi(m). However, during growth factor depletion-induced death of 32D cells, both phenomena seemed to occur at the same time. 相似文献

This study aimed to study the effect of bradykinin on reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, mitochondrial injury, and cell death induced by ATP depletion in cell culture. Renal tubular cells were subjected to ATP depletion. Cell death was evaluated with LDH release, sub-G0/G1 fraction, Hoechst staining, and annexin V binding assay. ROS generation, mitochondrial membrane potential (DeltaPsi(m)), and intramitochondrial calcium were evaluated with flow cytometry. Translocation of cytochrome c and activation of apoptotic protein were analyzed with cell fractionating and Western blotting. Intracellular calcium was measured with a spectrofluorometer. Bradykinin enhanced cellular LDH release, apoptosis, generation of superoxide, and hydrogen peroxide induced by ATP depletion. Bradykinin also enhanced the loss of DeltaPsi(m), translocation of cytochrome c into cytosol, and activation of apoptotic protein. The intracellular/mitochondrial calcium was higher in bradykinin-treated cells. All these effects were reversed by coadministration with bradykinin B2 receptor (B2R) antagonist. Besides, blocking the phospholipase C (PLC) could reverse the synergistic effect of bradykinin with ATP depletion on ROS generation, mitochondrial damage, accumulation of intracellular/mitochondrial calcium, and apoptosis. Activation of B2R aggravates ROS generation, mitochondrial damage, and cell death induced by ATP depletion. These effects may act through the PLC-Ca(2+) signaling pathway. 相似文献

Effect of magnesium on calcium-induced depolarisation of mitochondrial transmembrane potential 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Racay P 《Cell biology international》2008,32(1):136-145
An effect of magnesium on calcium-induced depolarisation of mitochondrial transmembrane potential (DeltaPsi(m)) was investigated. Depending on the presence of Mg(2+), addition of Ca(2+) to suspension of isolated rat heart mitochondria induced either reversible depolarisation or irreversible collapse of succinate-driven DeltaPsi(m). Irreversible collapse of DeltaPsi(m), observed in the absence of Mg(2+), was insensitive to Ca(2+) chelation, inhibition of Ca(2+) uptake and increased efflux of Ca(2+) from mitochondrial matrix. Based on these data, opening of mPTP in a high-conductance mode is considered to be a major cause of the Ca(2+)-induced irreversible collapse of DeltaPsi(m) in the absence of Mg(2+). Involvement of mPTP in the process of Ca(2+)-induced collapse of DeltaPsi(m) was further supported by protective effect of both CsA and ADP. Reversible collapse of DeltaPsi(m), observed in the presence of Mg(2+), was sensitive to EGTA, ADP; and inhibition of Ca(2+) uptake and increased efflux of Ca(2+) from mitochondrial matrix. This may represent selective induction of a low-conductance permeability pathway. Presented results indicate important role of Mg(2+) in the process of Ca(2+)-induced depolarisation of DeltaPsi(m) mainly through discrimination between low- and high-conductance modes of mPTP. Minor effect of Mg(2+) on Ca(2+)-induced depolarisation of DeltaPsi(m) was observed at the level of stimulation of DeltaPsi(m) generation and inhibition of mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake. 相似文献

This report addresses the relation between Bcl-2 and mitochondrial membrane potential (DeltaPsi(m)) in apoptotic cell death. Rat pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells are differentiated into neuron-like cells with nerve growth factor (NGF). It is known that Bcl-2 can attenuate apoptosis induced by deprivation of neurotrophic factor. The protective effect of Bcl-2 has been correlated with preservation of DeltaPsi(m). Protonophores, such as carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone (FCCP), collapse the proton gradient across the mitochondrial inner membrane, resulting in a complete abolition of the mitochondrial membrane potential. Based on the analysis of morphology, of phosphatidylserine exposure and of nuclear fragmentation we conclude that FCCP induces apoptosis in PC12 cells, which can be prevented by overexpression of Bcl-2. To determine whether the cytoprotective effect of Bcl-2 is due to stabilization of DeltaPsi(m), we investigated the effect of Bcl-2 on changes in DeltaPsi(m), induced by FCCP in PC12 cells. We showed that treatment with FCCP induced a reduction in DeltaPsi(m), as assessed with the lipophilic cationic membrane potential-sensitive dye JC-1, and that Bcl-2 protects against FCCP-induced changes in NGF differentiated PC12 cells. Our data indicate that Bcl-2 protects against FCCP-induced cell death by stabilizing DeltaPsi(m). 相似文献

Dissipation of mitochondrial membrane potential (DeltaPsi(m)) and release of cytochrome c from mitochondria appear to be key events during apoptosis. The precise relationship (cause or consequence) between both is currently unclear. We previously showed in a model of serum-free cultured granulosa explants that cytochrome c is retained in a subset of respiring mitochondria until late in the apoptotic process. In this study we further investigated the issue of heterogeneity by using the DeltaPsi(m)-sensitive probe CM-H2TMRos in combination with a DNA fluorochrome. Changes of DeltaPsi(m) were assessed qualitatively by epifluorescence microscopy and were quantified using digital imaging microscopy. This approach yielded the following results: (a) CM-H2TMRos staining is a reliable and specific procedure to detect DeltaPsi(m) changes in granulosa cells explants; (b) dissipation of transmembrane potential is an early event during apoptosis preceding nuclear changes but is confined to a subpopulation of mitochondria within an individual cell; (c) in frankly apoptotic cells a few polarized mitochondria can be detected. These findings support the hypothesis that ATP needed for completion of the apoptotic cascade can be generated during apoptosis in a subset of respiring mitochondria and is not necessarily derived from anaerobic glycolysis. 相似文献

Ischemia-reperfusion injury induces cell death, but the responsible mechanisms are not understood. This study examined mitochondrial depolarization and cell death during ischemia and reperfusion. Contracting cardiomyocytes were subjected to 60-min ischemia followed by 3-h reperfusion. Mitochondrial membrane potential (DeltaPsi(m)) was assessed with tetramethylrhodamine methyl ester. During ischemia, DeltaPsi(m) decreased to 24 +/- 5.5% of baseline, but no recovery was evident during reperfusion. Cell death assessed by Sytox Green was minimal during ischemia but averaged 66 +/- 7% after 3-h reperfusion. Cyclosporin A, an inhibitor of mitochondrial permeability transition, was not protective. However, pharmacological antioxidants attenuated the fall in DeltaPsi(m) during ischemia and cell death after reperfusion and decreased lipid peroxidation as assessed with C11-BODIPY. Cell death was also attenuated when residual O(2) was scavenged from the perfusate, creating anoxic ischemia. These results suggested that reactive oxygen species (ROS) were important for the decrease in DeltaPsi(m) during ischemia. Finally, 143B-rho(0) osteosarcoma cells lacking a mitochondrial electron transport chain failed to demonstrate a depletion of DeltaPsi(m) during ischemia and were significantly protected against cell death during reperfusion. Collectively, these studies identify a central role for mitochondrial ROS generation during ischemia in the mitochondrial depolarization and subsequent cell death induced by ischemia and reperfusion in this model. 相似文献

Excessive production of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mROS) is strongly associated with mitochondrial and cellular oxidative damage, aging, and degenerative diseases. However, mROS also induces pathways of protection of mitochondria that slow aging, inhibit cell death, and increase lifespan. Recent studies show that the activation of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP), which is triggered by mROS and mitochondrial calcium overloading, is enhanced in aged animals and humans and in aging‐related degenerative diseases. mPTP opening initiates further production and release of mROS that damage both mitochondrial and nuclear DNA, proteins, and phospholipids, and also releases matrix NAD that is hydrolyzed in the intermembrane space, thus contributing to the depletion of cellular NAD that accelerates aging. Oxidative damage to calcium transporters leads to calcium overload and more frequent opening of mPTP. Because aging enhances the opening of the mPTP and mPTP opening accelerates aging, we suggest that mPTP opening drives the progression of aging. Activation of the mPTP is regulated, directly and indirectly, not only by the mitochondrial protection pathways that are induced by mROS, but also by pro‐apoptotic signals that are induced by DNA damage. We suggest that the integration of these contrasting signals by the mPTP largely determines the rate of cell aging and the initiation of cell death, and thus animal lifespan. The suggestion that the control of mPTP activation is critical for the progression of aging can explain the conflicting and confusing evidence regarding the beneficial and deleterious effects of mROS on health and lifespan. 相似文献

Mitochondrial membrane potential (DeltaPsi(m)) is severely compromised in the myocardium after ischemia-reperfusion and triggers apoptotic events leading to cell demise. This study tests the hypothesis that mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K(+) (mitoK(ATP)) channel activation prevents the collapse of DeltaPsi(m) in myocytes during anoxia-reoxygenation (A-R) and is responsible for cell protection via inhibition of apoptosis. After 3-h anoxia and 2-h reoxygenation, the cultured myocytes underwent extensive damage, as evidenced by decreased cell viability, compromised membrane permeability, increased apoptosis, and decreased ATP concentration. Mitochondria in A-R myocytes were swollen and fuzzy as shown after staining with Mito Tracker Orange CMTMRos and in an electron microscope and exhibited a collapsed DeltaPsi(m), as monitored by 5,5',6,6'-tetrachloro-1,1',3,3'-tetraethylbenzimidazolcarbocyanine iodide (JC-1). Cytochrome c was released from mitochondria into the cytosol as demonstrated by cytochrome c immunostaining. Activation of mitoK(ATP) channel with diazoxide (100 micromol/l) resulted in a significant protection against mitochondrial damage, ATP depletion, cytochrome c loss, and stabilized DeltaPsi(m). This protection was blocked by 5-hydroxydecanoate (500 micromol/l), a mitoK(ATP) channel-selective inhibitor, but not by HMR-1098 (30 micromol/l), a putative sarcolemmal K(ATP) channel-selective inhibitor. Dissipation of DeltaPsi(m) also leads to opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pore, which was prevented by cyclosporin A. The data support the hypothesis that A-R disrupts DeltaPsi(m) and induces apoptosis, which are prevented by the activation of the mitoK(ATP) channel. This further emphasizes the therapeutic significance of mitoK(ATP) channel agonists in the prevention of ischemia-reperfusion cell injury. 相似文献

The Bcl-2 family of proteins are involved in regulating the redox state of cells. However, the mode of action of Bcl-2 proteins remains unclear. This work analyzed the effects of Bcl-x(L) on the cellular redox state after treatment with tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) or exogenous oxidants. We show that in cells that undergo TNF-alpha-induced apoptosis, TNF-alpha induces a partial decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential (DeltaPsi(m)) followed by high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS scavengers delay the progression of mitochondrial depolarization and apoptotic cell death. This indicates that ROS are important mediators of mitochondrial depolarization. However, ROS scavengers fail to prevent the initial TNF-alpha-induced decrease in DeltaPsi(m). In contrast, expression of Bcl-x(L) prevents both the initial decrease in DeltaPsi(m) following TNF-alpha treatment and the subsequent induction of ROS. Bcl-x(L) itself does not act as a ROS scavenger. In addition, Bcl-x(L) does not block the initial decrease in DeltaPsi(m) following treatment with the oxidant hydrogen peroxide. However, unlike control-transfected cells, Bcl-x(L)-expressing cells can recover their mitochondrial membrane potential following the initial drop in DeltaPsi(m) induced by hydrogen peroxide. These data suggest that Bcl-x(L) plays a regulatory role in controlling the membrane potential of and ROS production by mitochondria rather than acting as a direct antioxidant. 相似文献

Although recent studies focused on the contribution of mitochondrial Ca2+ to the mechanisms of ischemia-reperfusion injury, the regulation of mitochondrial Ca2+ under pathophysiological conditions remains largely unclear. By using saponin-permeabilized rat myocytes, we measured mitochondrial membrane potential (DeltaPsi(m)) and mitochondrial Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+](m)) at the physiological range of cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+](c); 300 nM) and investigated the regulation of [Ca2+](m) during both normal and dissipated DeltaPsi(m). When DeltaPsi(m) was partially depolarized by carbonyl cyanide p-(trifluoromethoxy)phenylhydrazone (FCCP, 0.01-0.1 microM), there were dose-dependent decreases in [Ca2+](m). When complete DeltaPsi(m) dissipation was achieved by FCCP (0.3-1 microM), [Ca2+](m) remained at one-half of the control level despite no Ca2+ influx via the Ca2+ uniporter. The DeltaPsi(m) dissipation by FCCP accelerated calcein leakage from mitochondria in a cyclosporin A (CsA)-sensitive manner, which indicates that DeltaPsi(m) dissipation opened the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP). After FCCP addition, inhibition of the mPTP by CsA caused further [Ca2+](m) reduction; however, inhibition of mitochondrial Na+/Ca2+ exchange (mitoNCX) by a Na+-free solution abolished this [Ca2+](m) reduction. Cytosolic Na(+) concentrations that yielded one-half maximal activity levels for mitoNCX were 3.6 mM at normal DeltaPsi(m) and 7.6 mM at DeltaPsi(m) dissipation. We conclude that 1) the mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter accumulates Ca2+ in a manner that is dependent on DeltaPsi(m) at the physiological range of [Ca2+](c); 2) DeltaPsi(m) dissipation opens the mPTP and results in Ca2+ influx to mitochondria; and 3) although mitoNCX activity is impaired, mitoNCX extrudes Ca2+ from the matrix even after DeltaPsi(m) dissipation. 相似文献

Treatment of elicited peritoneal macrophages or the macrophage cell line RAW 264.7 with high concentrations of nitric oxide donors is followed by apoptotic cell death. Analysis of the changes in the mitochondrial transmembrane potential (DeltaPsi(m)) with specific fluorescent probes showed a rapid and persistent increase of DeltaPsi(m), a potential that usually decreases in cells undergoing apoptosis through mitochondrial-dependent mechanisms. Using confocal microscopy, the release of cytochrome c from the mitochondria to the cytosol was characterized as an early event preceding the rise of DeltaPsi(m). The cytochrome c from cells treated with nitric oxide donors was modified chemically, probably through the formation of nitrotyrosine residues, suggesting the synthesis of peroxynitrite in the mitochondria. These results indicate that nitric oxide-dependent apoptosis in macrophages occurs in the presence of a sustained increase of DeltaPsi(m), and that the chemical modification and release of cytochrome c from the mitochondria precede the changes of DeltaPsi(m).-Hortelano, S., Alvarez, A. M., Boscá, L. Nitric oxide induces tyrosine nitration and release of cytochrome c preceding an increase of mitochondrial transmembrane potential in macrophages. 相似文献

Electron transport chain (ETC) dysfunction may arise from mitochondrial genetic, nuclear genetic, or toxic etiologies. Cytoplasmic hybrid (cybrid) systems can help distinguish between these possibilities by facilitating expression of suspect mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) within a nuclear and environmentally controlled context. Perpetuation of ETC dysfunction in cybrids is consistent with an mtDNA pathogenesis while defect correction is not. We previously used cybrids to screen sporadic Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients for mtDNA mutation with positive results. To further address the fidelity of these experiments, we created and characterized cybrids expressing mtDNA from persons with Huntington's disease (HD), an autosomal dominant, nuclear DNA-determined disorder in which mitochondrial ETC functioning is abnormal. On ETC, oxidative stress, and calcium homeostasis assays HD cybrid lines were indistinguishable from control cybrid lines. These data support the use of the cybrid technique for mtDNA mutation screening in candidate diseases. 相似文献

Evidence of ROS generation by mitochondria in cells with impaired electron transport chain and mitochondrial DNA damage 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Mitochondrial damage is a well known cause of mitochondria-related diseases. A major mechanism underlying the development of mitochondria-related diseases is thought to be an increase in intracellular oxidative stress produced by impairment of the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC). However, clear evidence of intracellular free radical generation has not been clearly provided for mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)-damaged cells. In this study, using the novel fluorescence dye, 2-[6-(4'-hydroxy)phenoxy-3H-xanthen-3-on-9-yl]benzoic acid (HPF), which was designed to detect hydroxyl radicals (*OH), intracellular free radical formation was examined in 143B cells (parental cells), 143B-rho(0) cells (mtDNA-lacking cells), 87 wt (cybrid), and cybrids of 4977-bp mtDNA deletion (common deletion) cells containing the deletion with 0%, 5%, 50% and >99% frequency (HeLacot, BH5, BH50 and BH3.12, respectively), using a laser confocal microscope detection method. ETC inhibitors (rotenone, 3-nitropropionic acid, thenoyltrifluoroacetone, antimycin A and sodium cyanide) were also tested to determine whether inhibitor treatment increased intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. A significant increase in ROS for 143B-rho(0) cells was observed compared with 143B cells. However, for the 87 wt cybrid, no increase was observed. An increase was also observed in the mtDNA-deleted cells BH50 and BH3.12. The ETC inhibitors increased intracellular ROS in both 143B and 143B-rho(0) cells. Furthermore, in every fluorescence image, the fluorescence dye appeared localized around the nuclei. To clarify the localization, we double-stained cells with the dye and MitoTracker Red. The resulting fluorescence was consistently located in mitochondria. Furthermore, manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) cDNA-transfected cells had decreased ROS. These results suggest that more ROS are generated from mitochondria in ETC-inhibited and mtDNA-damaged cells, which have impaired ETC. 相似文献

Bax translocation to mitochondria subsequent to a rapid loss of mitochondrial membrane potential 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Bax, a pro-apoptotic member of the Bcl-2 family, is a cytosolic protein that inserts into mitochondrial membranes upon induction of cell death. Using the green fluorescent protein fused to Bax (GFP-Bax) to quantitate mitochondrial binding in living cells we have investigated the cause of Bax association with mitochondria and the time course relative to endogenous and induced changes in mitochondrial membrane potential (DeltaPsi(m)). We have found that staurosporine (STS) induces a loss in DeltaPsi(m) before GFP-Bax translocation can be measured. The onset of the DeltaPsi(m) loss is followed by a rapid and complete collapse of DeltaPsi(m) which is followed by Bax association with mitochondria. The mitochondria uncoupler FCCP, in the presence of the F(1)-F(0) ATPase inhibitor oligomycin, can trigger Bax translocation to mitochondria suggesting that when ATP levels are maintained a collapse of DeltaPsi(m) induces Bax translocation. Neither FCCP nor oligomycin alone alters Bax location. Bax association with mitochondria is also triggered by inhibitors of the electron transport chain, antimycin and rotenone, compounds that collapse DeltaPsi(m) without inducing rapid ATP hydrolysis that typically occurs with uncouplers such as FCCP. Taken together, our results suggest that alterations in mitochondrial energization associated with apoptosis can initiate Bax docking to mitochondria. 相似文献

Background
F1F0-ATP synthase (F1F0-ATPase) plays important roles in regulating mitochondrial function during hypoxia, but the effect of F1F0-ATPase defect on hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/RO) is unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate how mtDNA T8993G mutation (NARP)-induced inhibition of F1F0-ATPase modulates the H/RO–induced mitochondrial dysfunction. In addition, the potential for melatonin, a potent antioxidant with multiple mitochondrial protective properties, to protect NARP cells exposed to H/RO was assessed.Methods And Findings
NARP cybrids harboring 98% of mtDNA T8993G genes were established as an in vitro model for cells with F1F0-ATPase defect; their parental osteosarcoma 143B cells were studied for comparison. Treating the cells with H/RO using a hypoxic chamber resembles ischemia/reperfusion in vivo. NARP significantly enhanced apoptotic death upon H/RO detected by MTT assay and the trypan blue exclusion test of cell viability. Based on fluorescence probe-coupled laser scanning imaging microscopy, NARP significantly enhanced mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mROS) formation and mitochondrial Ca2+ (mCa2+) accumulation in response to H/RO, which augmented the depletion of cardiolipin, resulting in the retardation of mitochondrial movement. With stronger H/RO stress (either with longer reoxygenation duration, longer hypoxia duration, or administrating secondary oxidative stress following H/RO), NARP augmented H/RO-induced mROS formation to significantly depolarize mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm), and enhance mCa2+ accumulation and nitric oxide formation. Also, NARP augmented H/RO-induced mROS oxidized and depleted cardiolipin, thereby promoting permanent mitochondrial permeability transition, retarded mitochondrial movement, and enhanced apoptosis. Melatonin markedly reduced NARP-augmented H/RO-induced mROS formation and therefore significantly reduced mROS-mediated depolarization of ΔΨm and accumulation of mCa2+, stabilized cardiolipin, and then improved mitochondrial movement and cell survival.Conclusion
NARP-induced inhibition of F1F0-ATPase enhances mROS formation upon H/RO, which augments the depletion of cardiolipin and retardation of mitochondrial movement. Melatonin may have the potential to rescue patients with ischemia/reperfusion insults, even those associated with NARP symptoms. 相似文献18.
Mitochondria can be induced by a variety of agents/conditions to undergo a permeability transition (MPT), which nonselectively increases the permeability of the inner membrane (i.m.) to small (<1500 Da) solutes. Prooxidants are generally considered to trigger the MPT, but some investigators suggest instead that prooxidants open a Ca(2+)-selective channel in the inner mitochondrial membrane and that the opening of this channel, when coupled with Ca(2+) cycling mediated by the Ca(2+) uniporter, leads ultimately to the observed increase in mitochondrial permeability [see, e.g., Schlegel et al. (1992) Biochem. J. 285, 65]. S. A. Novgorodov and T. I. Gudz [J. Bioenerg. Biomembr. (1996) 28, 139] propose that the i.m. contains a pore that, upon exposure to prooxidants, can open to two states, one of which conducts only H(+) and one of which is the classic MPT pore. Given the current interest in increased mitochondrial permeability as a factor in apoptotic cell death, it is important to determine whether i.m. permeability is regulated in one or multiple ways and, in the latter event, to characterize each regulatory mechanism in detail. This study examined the effects of the prooxidants diamide and t-butylhydroperoxide (t-BuOOH) on the permeability of isolated rat liver mitochondria. Under the experimental conditions used, t-BuOOH induced mitochondrial swelling only in the presence of exogenous Ca(2+) (>2 microM), whereas diamide was effective in its absence. In the absence of exogenous inorganic phosphate (P(i)), (1) both prooxidants caused a collapse of the membrane potential (DeltaPsi) that preceded the onset of mitochondrial swelling; (2) cyclosporin A eliminated the swelling induced by diamide and dramatically slowed that elicited by t-BuOOH, without altering prooxidant-induced depolarization; (3) collapse of DeltaPsi was associated with Ca(2+) efflux but not with efflux of glutathione; (4) neither Ca(2+) efflux nor DeltaPsi collapse was sensitive to ruthenium red; (5) collapse of DeltaPsi was accompanied by an increase in matrix pH; no stimulation of respiration was observed; (6) Sr(2+) was able to substitute for Ca(2+) in supporting t-BuOOH-induced i.m. depolarization, but not swelling; (7) in addition to being insensitive to CsA, the collapse of DeltaPsi was also resistant to trifluoperazine, spermine, and Mg(2+), all of which block the MPT; and (8) DeltaPsi was restored (and its collapse was inhibited) upon addition of dithiothreitol, ADP, ATP or EGTA. We suggest that these results indicate that prooxidants open two channels in the i.m.: the classic MPT and a low-conductance channel with clearly distinct properties. Opening of the low-conductance channel requires sulfhydryl group oxidation and the presence of a divalent cation; both Ca(2+) and Sr(2+) are effective. The channel permits the passage of cations, including Ca(2+), but not of protons. It is insensitive to inhibitors of the classic MPT. 相似文献

Recent studies have suggested that apoptosis and necrosis share common features in their signaling pathway and that apoptosis requires intracellular ATP for its mitochondrial/apoptotic protease-activating factor-1 suicide cascade. The present study was, therefore, designed to examine the role of intracellular energy levels in determining the form of cell death in cardiac myocytes. Neonatal rat cardiac myocytes were first incubated for 1 h in glucose-free medium containing oligomycin to achieve metabolic inhibition. The cells were then incubated for another 4 h in similar medium containing staurosporine and graded concentrations of glucose to manipulate intracellular ATP levels. Under ATP-depleting conditions, the cell death caused by staurosporine was primarily necrotic, as determined by creatine kinase release and nuclear staining with ethidium homodimer-1. However, under ATP-replenishing conditions, staurosporine increased the percentage of apoptotic cells, as determined by nuclear morphology and DNA fragmentation. Caspase-3 activation by staurosporine was also ATP dependent. However, loss of mitochondrial transmembrane potential (DeltaPsi(m)), Bax translocation, and cytochrome c release were observed in both apoptotic and necrotic cells. Moreover, cyclosporin A, an inhibitor of mitochondrial permeability transition, attenuated staurosporine-induced apoptosis and necrosis through the inhibition of DeltaPsi(m) reduction, cytochrome c release, and caspase-3 activation. Our data therefore suggest that staurosporine induces cell demise through a mitochondrial death signaling pathway and that the presence of intracellular ATP favors a shift from necrosis to apoptosis through caspase activation. 相似文献

Prohibitin (PHB), a major mitochondrial membrane protein, has been shown earlier in our laboratoryto regulate sperm motility via an alteration in mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) in infertile men with poor sperm quality. To test if PHB expression is associated with sperm mitochondrial superoxide (mROS) levels, here we examined sperm mROS levels, high MMP and lipid peroxidation in infertile men with poor sperm motility (asthenospermia, A) and/or low sperm concentrations (oligoasthenospermia, OA). The diaphorase‐type activity of sperm mitochondrial complex I (MCI) and PHB expression were also determined. We demonstrate that mROS and lipid peroxidation levels are significantly higher in sperm from A and OA subjects than in normospermic subjects, whereas high MMP and PHB expression are significantly lower. A positive correlation between mROS and lipid peroxidation and a negative correlation of mROS with PHB expression, high MMP, and sperm motility were found in these subjects. The finding of similar diaphorase‐type activity levels of sperm MCI in the three groups studied suggests that the catalytic subunits of MCI in the matrix arm may produce mROS on its own. There may be a dysfunction of electron transport at MCI associated with decreased expression of PHB in sperm with poor quality. We conclude that mROS level is increased and associated with decreased PHB expression, and it may regulate sperm motility via increases in low MMP and lipid peroxidation. This is the first report on the involvement of PHB in human sperm motility loss associated with increased generation of mROS at MCI. 相似文献
