Mammalian and avian muscles were examined histochemically and biochemically to determine the relative contribution of membrane bound (mitochondrial and sarcotubular) ATPases under the same conditions employed for myofibrillar ATPase. For histochemically investigated Ca+(+)-ATPase activity following incubation at pH 9.4 according to the calcium-citro-phosphate technique, avian muscle displayed distinct mitochondrial localization in both dark and light staining fibres. However, mitochondrial localization did not occur in mammalian muscle fibres. Pretreatment of unfixed frozen sections with ouabain, cyanide and acetone did not prevent the reticular distribution in avian muscle fibres. The present study demonstrates that "myofibrillar" localization is achieved by the Ca+(+)-precipitation technique: provided frozen sections are pretreated with cold acetone, fixed in a fixative containing oligomycin or azide and then incubated in a medium containing glycine-NaO H as buffer. Mitochondria prepared by successive mechanical homogenization or by Nagarse treatment plus 2 min homogenization develop different ATPase activities at pH 9.4 7.4 6.0 and 4.35 as well as stimulation by 70 mM Ca++ at these pHs compared to those ATPase activities in the homogenate of mixed hamster hind leg muscles. Glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and creatine kinase (both located at the outer surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane) and succinate dehydrogenase and glutamate dehydrogenase (localized at the inner mitochondrial membrane and in the matrix resp.) also show different activities in both mitochondria preparations indicating different membrane properties of both mitochondria. Evidence is obtained that using the calcium-citro-phosphate technique at pH 9.4 oligomycin-sensitive and -insensitive ATPases are activated by Ca++ in both mitochondria preparations. Since in muscle homogenate less than 10% of Ca+(+)-stimulated ATPase activity is oligomycin-sensitive, mitochondrial ATPase exhibit only a small portion of total ATPase from mixed hamster hind leg muscles.

The effect of temperature on the activation energies of mitochondrial enzymes of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae was examined. Non-linear Arrhenius plots with discontinuities in the temperature range 14-19 degrees C and 19-22 degrees C were observed for the respiratory enzymes and mitochondrial ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) respectively. A straight-line Arrhenius plot was observed for the matrix enzyme, malate dehydrogenase. The activation energies of the enzymes associated with succinate oxidation, namely, succinate oxidase, succinate dehydrogenase and succinate-cytochrome c oxidoreductase, were in the range 60-85kJ/mol above the transition temperature and 90-160kJ/mol below the transition temperature. In contrast, the corresponding enzymes associated with NADH oxidation showed significantly lower activation energies, 20-35kJ/mol above and 40-85kJ/mol below the transition temperature. The discontinuities in the Arrhenius plots were still observed after sonication, treatment with non-ionic detergents or freezing and thawing of the mitochondrial membranes. Discontinuities for cytochrome c oxidase activity were only observed in freshly isolated mitochondria, and no distinct breaks were observed after storage at -20 degrees C. Mitochondrial ATPase activity still showed discontinuities after sonication and freezing and thawing, but a linear plot was observed after treatment with non-ionic detergents. The results indicate that the various enzymes of the respiratory chain are located in a similar lipid macroenvironment within the mitochondrial membrane.

(1) The histochemical staining pattern of succinic dehydrogenase (SDH) does not show unequivocal differentiation between the type I red and type II red fibres in mammalian striated muscles. (2) Since high biochemical activity of beta-hydroxybutyric dehydrogenase (beta-HOBDH) occurs in mitochondria of the type I red fibres, the histochemical localization of this enzyme may show a pattern of staining reciprocal to that seen for myofibrillar ATPase. (3) It remains to be confirmed that the type I red fibres, which are possibly slow-twitch physiologically, possess the highest concentration of myoglobin. The histochemical correlation of myoglobin and myofibrillar ATPase in serial sections should be studied. (4) In order to achieve a more realistic picture, various glycolytic and glycogenolytic enzymes should be incubated according to the gelatin film technique, or semipermeable membrane technique or collagen polypeptide technique. A histochemical correlation of phosphorylase, LDH, PFK, alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase, and myofibrillar ATPase in adjacent muscle sections may throw light on the histochemical characteristics of the different fibre-types. (5) The specific histochemical demonstration of AMPase is achieved following preincubation of tissue sections. (6) ADPase has been demonstrated by the calcium precipitation technique only (GUTH and YELLIN, 1971). A number of studies claim, however, that ADPase is not demonstrable histochemically in muscle fibres. (7) The presence of magnesium ions is a prerequisite for the adequate histochemical demonstration of mitochondrial ATPase. The latter is inhibited almost completely by 40 mM Ca++ (when Mg++ is not added) at both neutral and alkaline pH values. (8) The histochemical activity of SR-AT-Pase seen as continuous reticula but without punctuate and sub-sarcolemmal staining possibly represents the extra ATPase of SR. (9) On the basis of myofibrillar ATPase reaction, an inherent heterogeneity, between the type II red and type II white may be recognized. In addition, the above fibre-types possess their respective sub-populations. (10) Following diK+ EDTA preincubation, some type II red fibres show selective lability. These are the mitochondria-rich fibres. Thus in the total absence of both punctuate and subsarcolemmal staining, the presence of mitochondrial ATPase activity under the histochemical conditions for myofibrillar ATPase is unlikely. (11) The reaction pattern of CK/ATPase (coupled reaction) at pH 6.9 is distinctly intermyofibrillar and unlike SDH-pattern. This reticular reaction is associated mainly with the SR and hence the importance of transphosphorylation in this organelle for the Ca++ uptake and muscle relaxation. (12) The CK/ATPase reaction at pH8.0 has shown important histoenzymatic characteristics. At this pH value the type I red fibres and slow-twitch soleus show myofibrillar reaction pattern. This identical histochemical behaviour suggests that type I red fibres are possibly slow-contracting...

The mitochondrial ATPase inhibitor proteins--the Pullman-Monroy inhibitor (PMI) and the Ca(2+)-binding protein (CaBI)--have a wide distribution, both being present in mitochondria of bovine heart and kidney, rat liver and brain, two mitochondrial populations of rabbit skeletal muscle, and mitochondria from human fibroblasts and the human breast cancer cell line T-47-D. The ratio of CaBI to PMI was highest in heart and skeletal muscle mitochondria. The subsarcolemmal fraction of skeletal muscle had 2.6-times as much CaBI as did the intermyofibrillar. The ratio of CaBI to PMI in the mitochondria of the other normal tissues and fibroblasts was close to 1. In contrast, mitochondria from T-47D cells had 1.5-times as much PMI as CaBI whilst mitochondria from fibroblasts from a patient with Luft's disease showed a virtual lack of PMI. The specific ATPase, ATP-synthetase and succinate dehydrogenase activities of the Luft's mitochondria were, however, in the normal range. The specific ATP synthetase activity of the T-47D cells was significantly higher than normal. We conclude that tissues like heart and skeletal muscle which experience wide fluctuations in intracellular Ca2+ have a greater need for CaBI. Why lack of PMI could lead to 'loose' coupling of oxidative phosphorylation in skeletal muscle of Luft's patients, but not in fibroblasts is discussed.

A case of mitochondrial enzymopathy, called also ophthalmoplegia plus, was observed in a 31-year-old man. Histoenzymatic investigations demonstrated in the myocytes decreased and irregularity of reactions for succinic dehydrogenase, tetrazole reductase and mitochondrial ATPase. In electron microscopy paracrystalline structures, lamellar bodies and concentrically condensed cristae were seen in the mitochondria, and increased glycogen stores outside the mitochondria.

Submitochondrial particles prepared from liver and skeletal muscle of control and iron-deficient rats were examined for cytochrome content and for both energy-independent and energy-conserving functions. Liver submitochondrial particles appear quite resistant to iron deficiency with cytochrome content and electron-transferring or energy-conserving functions maintained at a level of 85% or better of normal. Iron-deficient skeletal muscle submitochondrial particles, in contrast, have decreased cytochrome content and only 15-20% of the normal capacity for oxidation through either complex I (NADH dehydrogenase) or complex II (succinate dehydrogenase). Energy-linked reactions which involve substrate oxidation/reduction (succinate----NAD+ reversed electron flow and succinate-driven energy-dependent transhydrogenation) are likewise markedly decreased, while ATP-driven energy-dependent transhydrogenation and mitochondrial ATPase are normal. Our data support the concept that iron deficiency leads to decreased electron-carrying capacity of iron-containing mitochondrial enzymes, with skeletal muscle being much more susceptible than liver, but that the mitochondria are otherwise normal with regard to energy conservation.

The effects of BRB-I-28 and its derivatives (GLG-V-13, SAZ-VII-22 and SAZ-VII-23), a novel group of antiarrhythmic agents, were investigated on the rat heart mitochondrial respiratory chain. The results indicate that BRB-I-28 and its derivatives have concentration-dependent inhibitory effects on NADH oxidase and NADH-CoQ reductase (complex I), but they have no significant effects on succinate oxidase, succinate dehydrogenase (complex II), CoQ-cytochrome c reductase (complex III), cytochrome c oxidase (complex IV), and NADH-K3Fe(CN)6 reductase. The site of inhibition of BRB-I-28 and its derivatives on the respiratory chain was localized between flavoprotein n (FPn) and CoQ, which is similar to the effect of rotenone and several other antiarrhythmic drugs such as amiodarone, propranolol, etc. BRB-I-28 and its derivatives also have significant inhibitory effects on mitochondrial ATPase activity as reported for other antiarrhythmic drugs such as amiodarone, propranolol, quinidine, and lidocaine. However, BRB-I-28 and its derivatives have no direct effects on sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase activity. The inhibitory effects of BRB-I-28 and its derivatives on mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation may result in the depletion of ATP. This effect, in combination with their effects on Na+,K(+)-ATPase, could possibly produce an increase in Ca2+ concentration in cytosol. This may be another mechanism by which these DHBCN derivatives produce an increase in systemic arterial blood pressure and contractile force of isolated cardiac muscle. On the other hand, inhibition on mitochondrial respiration may account for some of the potential toxic effects of these diheterabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane derivatives.

Mammalian mitochondria are sensitive targets of the cytotoxic effects of superoxide (O.2-) and nitric oxide (.NO). In turn, when superoxide and nitric oxide are simultaneously produced, they rapidly react with each other yielding the highly oxidizing peroxynitrite anion (ONOO-) which may be also toxic to mammalian mitochondria. In this study we report that peroxynitrite exposure to rat heart mitochondria resulted in significant inactivation of electron carriers such as succinate dehydrogenase and NADH dehydrogenase as well as the mitochondrial ATPase. As a result of enzyme inactivation, peroxynitrite lead to a profound inhibition of glutamate/malate- and succinate-supported oxygen consumption but did not cause mitochondrial uncoupling. Secondary to inhibiting mitochondrial electron transport, peroxynitrite induced an enhanced succinate-stimulated hydrogen peroxide formation by heart mitochondria. Most of the damaging effects against mitochondria can be ascribed to peroxynitrite anion itself and not to hydroxyl radical-like oxidant yielded during the proton-catalyzed decomposition of peroxynitrite, as hydroxyl radical scavengers provided a rather modest protection. Our observations indicate that mitochondria may constitute a key intracellular loci for the toxic effects of peroxynitrite under the various pathological conditions in which peroxynitrite appears to play a contributory role.

Previous studies from our laboratory have shown that mitochondrial dysfunction may be an important early event in S-[(1 and 2)-phenyl-2-hydroxyethyl]cysteine (PHEC)-induced cytotoxicity in isolated rat renal proximal tubules. The present study has therefore examined in more detail PHEC-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, both in vivo and in vitro, using isolated renal cortical mitochondria. Renal cortical mitochondria isolated from PHEC-treated rats in vivo showed depressed effects on the mitochondrial respiration and oxidative phosphorylation in both a dose (0, 250, and 500 micromol/kg iv)- and time (0-24 h)-dependent manner in the presence of both succinate (Site 2) and malate plus alpha-ketoglutarate (Site 1) as respiratory substrates, with initial significant depression occurring as early as 4 h following treatment with 500 micromol PHEC/kg. Similar mitochondrial dysfunctions were observed in vitro in concentration- and time-dependent manners with both respiratory substrates. PHEC also caused a marked dose-dependent inhibition of mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase and NADH cytochrome c reductase activities both in vivo and in vitro, with initial inhibition occurring as early as 4 h after in vivo administration and 45 min after exposure to PHEC in vitro, while the NADH dehydrogenase activity was not considerably inhibited. The mitochondrial ATPase activity was significantly decreased 4 and 24 h following treatment with PHEC (500 micromol/kg). These results suggest that PHEC exerts its inhibitory effect on the mitochondrial respiration and oxidative phosphorylation through the action on the mitochondrial electron transport chain. PHEC significantly reduced the activity of adenine nucleotide translocase as well as the net uptake of substrates by mitochondria without affecting their efflux within 2-4 h after its injection (500 micromol/kg). On the other hand, significant renal damage, as assessed by morphological study, appeared as early as 24 h following such treatment. The observation of similar effects after both in vivo and in vitro exposures may suggest that the effect on mitochondria may have a pathogenic role in PHEC-induced renal injury in rats. PHEC produces mitochondrial toxicity that results from an inactivation of mitochondrial anionic substrate transporters as well as from an inhibition of activities of adenine nucleotide translocase and dehydrogenases.

Modulation of mitochondrial respiratory chain, dehydrogenase, and nucleotide-metabolizing enzyme activities is fundamental to cellular protection. Here, we demonstrate that the potassium channel opener diazoxide, within its cardioprotective concentration range, modulated the activity of flavin adenine dinucleotide-dependent succinate dehydrogenase with an IC50 of 32 microM and reduced the rate of succinate-supported generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in heart mitochondria. 5-Hydroxydecanoic fatty acid circumvented diazoxide-inhibited succinate dehydrogenase-driven electron flow, indicating a metabolism-dependent supply of redox equivalents to the respiratory chain. In perfused rat hearts, diazoxide diminished the generation of malondialdehyde, a marker of oxidative stress, which, however, increased on diazoxide washout. This effect of diazoxide mimicked ischemic preconditioning and was associated with reduced oxidative damage on ischemia-reperfusion. Diazoxide reduced cellular and mitochondrial ATPase activities, along with nucleotide degradation, contributing to preservation of myocardial ATP levels during ischemia. Thus, by targeting nucleotide-requiring enzymes, particularly mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase and cellular ATPases, diazoxide reduces ROS generation and nucleotide degradation, resulting in preservation of myocardial energetics under stress.
