Exposure of rats to elevated temperature of 28 degrees C or 35 degrees C for 3 days six hours daily resulted in a decreased rate of oxidation with succinate or glutamate + malate as substrates, by the mitochondria of liver. The higher decrease was observed in environment temperature of 35 degrees C. There was no change in ADP/O ratio. The activities of NADH: cytochrome c reductase and cytochrome oxidase were stimulated but activities of succinate dehydrogenase and succinate cytochrome reductase were decreased.

The effects of DDT on the energy-related functions of rat-liver mitochondria were examined. ADP-stimulated respiration was much more sensitive to inhibition by DDT than was uncoupler-stimulated respiration when succinate or ascorbate/TMPD was used as the substrate. Ca2+ uptake driven by ATP hydrolysis was inhibited by DDT. These results indicate that DDT inhibits ATPase itself. In addition, DDT blocked succinate dehydrogenase and the cytochrome b-c span of the electron transport chain, which also secondarily reduced ATP synthesis. The uncoupling action due to DDT was only seen at high concentrations with ascorbate/TMPD as the substrate. However, this action was masked because of the increased inhibition of the electron transport chain when the substrate was changed to succinate.

We studied energy metabolism after experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage in rats. Four different cerebral areas were tested: frontal cortex, occipital cortex, hippocampus, and brainstem. Vmax of the following enzymatic activities was evaluated: in the homogenate: hexokinase, phosphofructokinase, and lactate dehydrogenase for the glycolytic pathway, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase for the hexose monophosphate shunt; in the purified nonsynaptic mitochondria: NAD+-isocitrate dehydrogenase, citrate synthase, and succinate dehydrogenase for the Krebs cycle, and cytochrome oxidase for the electron transfer chain. We also evaluated some parameters related to the respiration of nonsynaptic mitochondria (State 3, State 4, uncoupled state, respiratory control ratio, and ADP:O ratio). Subarachnoid hemorrhage did not significantly affect Vmax of the enzymatic activities related to anaerobic and aerobic metabolism; however, mitochondrial respiration was affected, particularly in the presence of NADH-producing substrates (glutamate + malate).

A regulatory role of adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT) was determined by titration of mitochondrial respiration (state 3) with carboxyatractyloside. It was shown that ANT regulates pyruvate oxidation: the control strength is more pronounced after depletion of endogenous substrates or after the increase in extramitochondrial ATP/ADP. The rate of succinate oxidation is controlled mainly by succinate dehydrogenase, while ANT does not participate in its regulation.

It has been demonstrated that perfusion of myocardium with glutamic acid or tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates during hypoxia or ischemia, improves cardiac function, increases ATP levels, and stimulates succinate production. In this study isolated adult rat heart cells were used to investigate the mechanism of anaerobic succinate formation and examine beneficial effects attributed to ATP generated by this pathway. Myocytes incubated for 60 min under hypoxic conditions showed a slight loss of ATP from an initial value of 21 +/- 1 nmol/mg protein, a decline of CP from 42 to 17 nmol/mg protein and a fourfold increase in lactic acid production to 1.8 +/- 0.2 mumol/mg protein/h. These metabolite contents were not altered by the addition of malate and 2-oxoglutarate to the incubation medium nor were differences in cell viability observed; however, succinate release was substantially accelerated to 241 +/- 53 nmol/mg protein. Incubation of cells with [U-14C]malate or [2-U-14C]oxoglutarate indicates that succinate is formed directly from malate but not from 2-oxoglutarate. Moreover, anaerobic succinate formation was rotenone sensitive. We conclude that malate reduction to succinate occurs via the reverse action of succinate dehydrogenase in a coupled reaction where NADH is oxidized (and FAD reduced) and ADP is phosphorylated. Furthermore, by transaminating with aspartate to produce oxaloacetate, 2-oxoglutarate stimulates cytosolic malic dehydrogenase activity, whereby malate is formed and NADH is oxidized. In the form of malate, reducing equivalents and substrate are transported into the mitochondria where they are utilized for succinate synthesis.

The degree of mitochondrial ADP/Fe/NADPH-induced lipid peroxidation was increased up to the fourth day after 9.0 Gy whole body gamma-irradiation. The lipid peroxidation inhibiting effect of succinate added to isolated mitochondria was diminished as a consequence of irradiation. The succinate, administered in vivo prior to irradiation, decreased the amount of malondialdehyde production and protected the succinate dehydrogenase enzyme against inactivation. The mean survival of succinate-pretreated animals was much longer than that of controls. The role of mitochondrial lipid peroxidation in the pathogenesis of radiation injury is discussed.

Increases in intracellular and mitochondrial calcium content that accompany ischemic and toxic acute renal failure have been suggested to mediate renal tubular cell injury and dysfunction, but the mechanism(s) are unknown. We studied the effects of in vivo vitamin D-induced chronic hypercalcemia on rat renal cortical brush-border and basolateral membranes and mitochondria. In the brush-border membrane, hypercalcemia caused significant decreases in alkaline phosphatase-specific activity, total phospholipid molar content, and phosphatidylserine percent molar composition and increases in the cholesterol-to-total phospholipid molar ratio and phosphatidylinositol percent molar composition. In the basolateral membrane, hypercalcemia caused significant decreases in Na+-K+-ATPase-specific activity and total phospholipid molar content and increases in the cholesterol-to-total phospholipid molar ratio and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate percent molar composition. In the mitochondria, hypercalcemia caused a mild increase in the mitochondrial calcium content, but no alterations in succinic dehydrogenase-specific activity, succinate-, ADP-, or uncoupler-induced respiration. Thus hypercalcemia caused alterations in brush-border and basolateral membrane enzyme activity and lipid composition, but no functional changes were detected in mitochondria. These hypercalcemia-induced plasma membrane biochemical alterations may be markers of early cell injury and suggest a role for calcium in causing or predisposing to renal tubular cell injury.

We report the isolation of mitochondria from the endosperm of castor beans (Ricinus communis). These mitochondria oxidized succinate, external NADH, malate and pyruvate with respiratory-control and ADP/O ratios consistent with those found previously with mitochondria from other plant sources. The mitochondria exhibited considerable sensitivity to the electron-transport-chain inhibitors antimycin A and cyanide when oxidizing succinate and external NADH. Pyruvate-dependent O2 uptake was relatively insensitive to these inhibitors, although the residual O2 uptake could be inhibited by salicylhydroxamic acid. We conclude that a cyanide-insensitive alternative terminal oxidase is functional in these mitochondria. However, electrons from the succinate dehydrogenase or external NADH dehydrogenase seem to have no access to this pathway. There is little interconnection between the salicylhydroxamic acid-sensitive and cyanide-sensitive pathways of electron transport. alpha-Cyanocinnamate and its analogues, compound UK5099 [alpha-cyano-beta-(1-phenylindol-3-yl)acrylate] and alpha-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamate, were all found to be potent non-competitive inhibitors of pyruvate oxidation in castor-bean mitochondria. The accumulation of pyruvate by castor-bean mitochondria was determined by using a silicone-oil-centrifugation technique. The accumulation was shown to observe Michaelis-Menten kinetics, with a Km for pyruvate of 0.10 mM and a Vmax. of 0.95 nmol/min per mg of mitochondrial protein. However, the observed rates of pyruvate accumulation were insufficient to account for the pyruvate oxidation rates found in the oxygen-electrode studies. We were able to demonstrate that this is due to the immediate export of the accumulated radiolabel in the form of malate and citrate. Compound UK5099 inhibited the accumulation of [2-14C]pyruvate by castor-bean mitochondria at concentrations similar to those required to inhibit pyruvate oxidation.

In order to locate sites of action of thyroid hormone on mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation we have used an experimental application of control analysis as previously described [Groen, Wanders, Westerhoff, Van der Meer & Tager (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 2754-2757]. Rat-liver mitochondria were isolated from hypothyroid rats or from hypothyroid rats 24 h after treatment with a single dose of 3,3',5-triiodothyronine (T3). The amount of control exerted by four different steps on State-3 respiration with succinate as respiratory substrate was quantified by using specific inhibitors. The hormone treatment resulted in an increase in the flux control coefficient of the adenine nucleotide translocator, the dicarboxylate carrier and cytochrome c oxidase and a decrease in the flux control coefficient of the bc1-complex. The results of this analysis indicate that thyroid hormone treatment results in an activation of the bc1-complex and of at least one other enzyme, possibly succinate dehydrogenase. Measurement of the extramitochondrial ATP/ADP ratio at different rates of respiration (induced by addition of different amounts of hexokinase in the presence of glucose and ATP) showed that the adenine nucleotide translocator operates at a higher (ATP/ADP)out after T3 treatment, which supports previous reports on stimulation of this step by thyroid hormone.

1. Changes in the amounts and distribution of protein and respiratory enzymes have been estimated during the life cycle of the fly Lucilia cuprina. 2. The fully fed larva contains about 7mg. of protein, the pupa and newly emerged fly about 4mg., and the mature adult about 3mg. 3. There are two periods of incorporation of protein into particles at the expense of the soluble protein; the first, immediately after pupation, may store protein (0.5mg./insect) for use in adult development; the second, over the period of emergence, was due mainly to the development of the thoracic mitochondria of the adult (0.7mg./insect). 4. In the thorax, cytochrome c oxidase and the dehydrogenases for glycerophosphate, isocitrate (NAD-dependent), succinate and malate appeared initially in small particles (less than 1mu in diameter). 5. In adult development these enzymes were redistributed so that in the mature fly most of the activity was present in larger particles (1-10mu in diameter). 6. During this redistribution the specific activity (mul. of oxygen/hr./mg. of protein) of glycerophosphate dehydrogenase in the small particles was 690 at 1(1/2) days before emergence, 955 at emergence and 980 at 7 days after emergence; the corresponding values for the large particles were 164, 760 and 1220. 7. In the mature fly the highest specific activities (mul. of oxygen/hr./mg. of protein) estimated were: glycerophosphate dehydrogenase 1380, isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD-dependent and requiring ADP and Mg(2+)) 408, succinate dehydrogenase 122, malate dehydrogenase 190, and cytochrome c oxidase 1360. 8. The results are considered in relation to the development of the flight-muscle sarcosomes.
