In experiments on rats with different resistance to hypoxia are investigated processes of mitochondrial respiration, oxidative phosphorylation and calcium capacity in liver under precursor nitric oxide L-arginine (600 mg/kg) and blockator nitric oxide synthase L-NNA (35 mg/kg) injections. We are used next substrates of oxidation: 0.35 mM succinate, 1 mM alpha-ketoglutarate, 1 mM alpha-ketoglutarate and 2 mM malonic acid. Increasing of ADP-stimulation respiration states under exogenous L-arginine injection, decreasing efficacy of respiration processes (respiration control on Chance and ADP/O) under such substrates oxidation, testify to oxide energy support decreasing and reversing nitric oxide inhibit in such conditions. This will be used as mechanism cell regulation succinate dehydrogenase activity. It has shown that L-arginine injection increase calcium mitochondrial capacity low resistance to hypoxia rats using substrates of oxidation succinate and alpha-ketoglutarate to control meanings of high resistance rats. Effects of nitric oxide precursor influence on this processes limit NO-synthase inhibitor L-NNA.

Treatment with phenobarbital (30 mg/kg) for 2 weeks increased succinate dehydrogenase activity in peripheral blood lymphocytes of male rats. In 38% phenobarbital-treated rats succinate-cytochrome c oxidoreductase activity was lower than in the control due to accumulation of cells exhibiting no enzyme activity; in 44% animals this parameter was higher than in the control. The rates of state 3 respiration (oxidation substrate succinate), phosphorylation, and uncoupled respiration in liver mitochondria (oxidation substrate glutamate/malate mixture) increased after 35-day treatment with phenobarbital. The respiratory control and ADP/O ratio for these substrates did not differ from the control.

The goal of the present study was to discern the cellular mechanism(s) that contributes to the age-associated decrease in skeletal muscle aerobic capacity. Skeletal muscle mitochondrial content, a parameter of oxidative capacity, was significantly lower (25 and 20% calculated on the basis of citrate synthase and succinate dehydrogenase activities, respectively) in 24-mo-old Fischer 344 rats compared with 6-mo-old adult rats. Mitochondria isolated from skeletal muscle of both age groups had identical state 3 (ADP-stimulated) and ADP-stimulated maximal respiratory rates and phosphorylation potential (ADP-to-O ratios) with both nonlipid and lipid substrates. In contrast, mitochondria from 24-mo-old rats displayed significantly lower state 4 (ADP-limited) respiratory rates and, consequently, higher respiratory control ratios. Consistent with the tighter coupling, there was a 68% reduction in uncoupling protein-3 (UCP-3) abundance in mitochondria from elderly compared with adult rats. Congruent with the respiratory studies, there was no age-associated decrease in carnitine palmitoyltransferase I and carnitine palmitoyltransferase II activities in isolated skeletal muscle mitochondria. However, there was a small, significant decrease in tissue total carnitine content. It is concluded that the in vivo observed decrease in skeletal muscle aerobic capacity with advanced age is a consequence of the decreased mitochondrial density. On the basis of the dramatic reduction of UCP-3 content associated with decreased state 4 respiration of skeletal muscle mitochondria from elderly rats, we propose that an increased free radical production might contribute to the metabolic compromise in aging.

The mechanism of reversible transfer of the gamma-phosphate group of ATP by Escherichia coli phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PCK) on to its substrate is of great interest. It is known that metallofluorides are accurate analogs of the transition state in the context of kinase mechanisms. Therefore, two complexes of PCK, one with AlF(3), Mg(2+) and ADP (complex I), the other with AlF(3), Mg(2+), ADP and pyruvate (complex II) were crystallized. The X-ray crystal structures of these two complexes were determined at 2.0 A resolution. The Al atom has trigonal bipyramidal geometry that mimics the transition state of phosphoryl transfer. The Al atom is at a distance of 2.8 A and 2.9 A from an oxygen atom of the beta-phosphoryl group of ADP in complex I and II, respectively. A water molecule in complex I and an oxygen atom of the pyruvate in complex II are located along the axis of the trigonal bipyramid on the side opposite to the beta-phosphoryl oxygen with respect to the equatorial plane, suggesting that the complexes are close mimics of the transition state. Along with the presence of positively charged species around the AlF(3) moiety, these results indicate that phosphoryl transfer occurs via a direct displacement mechanism with associative qualities.

Direct nonenzymatic oxidation of semiquinone by oxygen is one of the main sources of superoxide radicals (O2.-) in mitochondria. By using all the known data on hepatocyte mitochondria, we have revealed the correlation between the rate of superoxide generation by the bc1 complex and the transmembrane potential (delta psi). If the main electrogenic stage of the Q cycle is suggested to be the electron transfer between the cytochrome b hemes, then the rate of superoxide generation sharply increases when delta psi grows from 150 mV to 180 mV. However, this interrelation is ambiguous. Indeed, the increase of the generation rate with the growth of the potential can occur faster when succinate dehydrogenase is inhibited by malonate than when external ADP is exhausted. When the potential is changed by adding phosphate or potassium (K+), the rate of O2.- production remains constant, although the comparison of the rate values at the same delta psi reveals the effect of phosphate or potassium. It turned out that the rate of O2.- generation is a function of delta mu H rather than any of its components. Phosphate and K+ have practically no influence on delta mu H, since the change in delta psi is compensated by delta pH. The rate of superoxide generation by the bc1 complex is a multiple function of the electron-transfer activity of enzymes, the processes determining the membrane potential (e.g., loading), and of the oxygen concentration. The kinetic model proposed in this work may serve a tool to understand how the superoxide production is regulated.

The mechanism of Cr(VI)-induced toxicity in plants and animals has been assessed for mitochondrial bioenergetics and membrane damage in turnip root and rat liver mitochondria. By using succinate as the respiratory substrate, ADP/O and respiratory control ratio (RCR) were depressed as a function of Cr(VI) concentration. State 3 and uncoupled respiration were also depressed by Cr(VI). Rat mitochondria revealed a higher sensitivity to Cr(VI), as compared to turnip mitochondria. Rat mitochondrial state 4 respiration rate triplicated in contrast to negligible stimulation of turnip state 4 respiration. Chromium(VI) inhibited the activity of the NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I) from rat liver mitochondria and succinate-dehydrogenases (complex II) from plant and animal mitochondria. In rat liver mitochondria, complex I was more sensitive to Cr(VI) than complex II. The activity of cytochrome c oxidase (complex IV) was not sensitive to Cr(VI). Unique for plant mitochondria, exogenous NADH uncoupled respiration was unaffected by Cr(VI), indicating that the NADH dehydrogenase of the outer leaflet of the plant inner membrane, in addition to complexes III and IV, were insensitive to Cr(VI). The ATPase activity (complex V) was stimulated in rat liver mitochondria, but inhibited in turnip root mitochondria. In both, turnip and rat mitochondria, Cr(VI) depressed mitochondrial succinate-dependent transmembrane potential (Deltapsi) and phosphorylation efficiency, but it neither affected mitochondrial membrane permeabilization to protons (H+) nor induced membrane lipid peroxidation. However, Cr(VI) induced mitochondrial membrane permeabilization to K+, an effect that was more pronounced in turnip root than in rat liver mitochondria. In conclusion, Cr(VI)-induced perturbations of mitochondrial bioenergetics compromises energy-dependent biochemical processes and, therefore, may contribute to the basal mechanism underlying its toxic effects in plant and animal cells.

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have recently become interesting as potential anticancer drugs. RO-28-2653 is a promising compound because of its antimetastatic and antiangiogenic activities. Due to the structural similarity of RO-28-2653 to mitochondriotoxic agents, speculation has arisen that this substance might impair mitochondrial function. We, therefore, investigated the effects of RO-28-2653 on mitochondrial enzymes and on the functional properties of isolated mitochondria and skinned muscle fibers from rat hearts. Results were compared to the action of amytal and 2,4-dinitrophenol (2,4-DNP), both of which are well documented mitochondriotoxic compounds. In contrast to 2,4-DNP, RO-28-2653 did not uncouple oxidative phosphorylation, although higher concentrations of the compound did impair mitochondrial function. Using malate/pyruvate as substrate, 50 microM of RO-28-2653 inhibited mitochondrial respiration in isolated mitochondria and skinned fibers by 23 and 11%, respectively while 2mM of amytal elicited almost complete inhibition of the mitochondrial respiration. RO-28-2653 (50 micro) inhibited succinate-dependent respiration in both systems by 43 and 24%, respectively while 2mM of amytal caused 41 and 23% inhibition, respectively. There was no change in the ADP/O ratios. RO-28-2653 (50 microM) did not significantly alter the activity of the respiratory chain complexes or succinate dehydrogenase, although citrate synthase (CS) was inhibited by upto 71%. This inhibition was non-competitive at a K(i) of 25+/-5 microM. Inhibitory effects in the presence of hydrophobic substances, such as BSA and Triton X-100, were significantly lower in both test systems. In conclusion, high concentrations of RO-28-2653 impair mitochondrial function, although compared to amytal and 2,4-DNP, this is rather low. The resultant impairment is less pronounced in the more complex skinned muscle fiber system, and is dependent on hydrophobic interactions.

Hepatotoxicity induced by 1,1-dichloroethylene (DCE) is mediated by cytochrome P450-dependent metabolism to reactive intermediates, including the epoxide. We have tested the hypothesis that mitochondria are a primary target of toxicity by investigating dose- and time-dependent effects of DCE on mitochondrial respiration. Hepatotoxicity, as assessed by serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activity, was evaluated. We have also determined the effectiveness of N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) in protecting against respiratory perturbations and hepatotoxicity. Liver mitochondria were isolated 2 h after DCE (50, 75, 100, 125, and 150 mg/kg) treatment. Glutamate (complex I)- and succinate (complex II)-supported mitochondrial respiration was assessed by measurement of state 3 (ADP-stimulated) and state 4 (resting) rates of oxygen consumption. The corresponding respiratory control ratios (RCRs, state 3/state 4) and ADP:O ratios were then calculated. A DCE dose of 125 mg/kg significantly inhibited glutamate- and succinate-supported state 3 respiration, leading to a significant reduction in corresponding RCRs and ADP:O ratios. In time-dependent studies, state 3 respiration rates and RCRs for glutamate-supported respiration were significantly decreased as early as 20 min after DCE (125 mg/kg) treatment, whereas those for succinate-supported respiration were significantly decreased at 90 min. Additionally, ADP:O ratios for glutamate-supported respiration were significantly decreased starting at 60 min, and those for succinate-supported respiration at 90 min. Alterations in mitochondrial function preceded significant increases in ALT activity, which was first manifested at 2 h. Pretreatment with NAC (1200 mg/kg) abrogated DCE-induced GSH depletion and inhibited disturbances in mitochondrial respiration. Moreover, NAC protected against increased ALT activity, suggesting that the protective effect of NAC is due to increased GSH for conjugation reactions and/or its antioxidant property. These results showed that DCE-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction is an early event that preceded the onset of hepatotoxicity.

Isosteviol lactone (LAC), a lactone derivative of the diterpenic acid isosteviol (ISO) was evaluated for its effect on the oxidative metabolism of mitochondria isolated from rat liver. In this model, LAC (1 mM) depressed the phosphorylation efficiency, as shown by the decreased respiratory control coefficient (RCC) and ADP/O ratio. LAC (1 mM) inhibited NADH oxidase (45%), succinate oxidase (34%) and promoted low-level inhibitions on succinate dehydrogenase (13%), succinate-cytochrome c oxide-reductase (23%), cytochrome c oxidase (10%), and NADH dehydrogenase (13%). Glutamate dehydrogenase was also a target for LAC, as it was 85% inhibited by 1 mM LAC. Cyclic voltammetry data showed that LAC, as well as ISO, does not undergo redox reactions under current experimental conditions. LAC (0.05-0.75 mM) inhibited the swelling dependent on the glutamate oxidation, 50% of the effect occurring at 0.5 mM LAC. Swelling supported by KNO(3) and valinomycin was also inhibited over all concentrations used of LAC and ISO, the effect being of a lower intensity for LAC, suggesting that the modification of the structure of ISO by lactonization diminished its interaction with the membrane. This could contribute to attenuation of the toxic effects described for ISO on mitochondrial function, such as those on respiratory chain enzymatic complexes and phosphorylating activity.

It is known that NO-dependent mechanisms are involved in mitochondrial adaptive reactions to different factors. The object of this study was to investigate the role of cholino- and adrenoreceptors in NO-dependent reactions of rat liver mitochondria to acute hypoxia (AH) and intermittent hypoxic training (IHT). Eight groups of Wistar male rats participated in the study. Animals of Gr. I underwent daily i.p. saline injections during 14 days. Gr. II was examined after a single AH test (inhalation of 7% O2, 30 min) with the same saline treatment. Another six groups were exposed to IHT (11% O2, 15-min sessions with 15 min rest intervals, 5 times daily during 14-days), at that 15 min before every IHT session animals underwent i.p. treatment: Gr. III and IV--saline, Gr. V--L-arginine, Gr. VI--NO synthase blocker L-NNA, Gr. VII--L-arginine with alpha-, beta-adrenoblockers phentolamine and obzidane, Gr. VIII--L-arginine with M- and N-cholinoreceptor blockers athropine and benzohexonium. After IHT Gr. IV-VIII were exposed to a single AH test and decapitated just after that. In control rats AH provoked: 1) in the presence of succinate, a 33% augmentation of ADP-stimulated mitochondrial respiration (V3) with a 18% decrease of O2 uptake efficiency (ADP/O ratio); 2) in the presence of alpha-ketoglutarate, a NAD-dependent substrate, no changes in V3 were observed, also 21% augmentation of ADP/O ratio registered. These events were accompanied by 36% increase in succinate dehydrogenase (SDG) activity, two-fold augmentation of malon dialdehyde (MDA) content and 43% increase in diene conjugates (DK). IHT caused reorganization of mitochondrial energy metabolism improving the protection against acute hypoxia. A decrease by 40% in activation of mitochondrial respiration in the presence of succinate (V3--by 40% and V4--by 34%), a reduction of MDA and DK content (by 32% and 20%, respectively), an increase in SGD activity by 31% was observed in Gr. IY compared to Gr. II. Extra exogenous NO (Gr.Y) did not influence V3 and V4 in the presence of succinate, but in the presence of alpha-ketoglutarate decreased them by 9% and 29%, respectively, as well as ADP/O ratio by 28% on the background of SDG inhibition by 24% and the decrease of MDA content by 34%, that is reduced aerobic energy supply and reactive oxygen species production. L-arginine effects were abolished by L-NNA. Effects of cholinoreceptor blockers over L-arginine (Gr. VIII) resembled effects of AH: considerable activation of succinate and alpha-ketoglutarate oxidation in stage V3 by 44% and 75%, respectively, was observed which was accompanied by a decrease in ADP/O by 21% and 31%, and V3/V4 by 15% and 28%, respectively, in comparison to Gr.Y. It indicates that effects of L-arginine are mediated mainly by cholinoreceptors. The effects of adrenoreceptors blockade strengthened the combined effects of IHT with L-arginine treatment, confirming primary role of cholinoreceptors in NO-dependent mitochondrial reactions to IHT. Thus, oxygen uptake and its effective usage depend on dynamic status of adreno- and cholinoreceptors. We conclude that protective effects of the combination of IHT with NO-donor treatment under acute hypoxia are mainly realized through cholinoreceptors.
