Suspensions of rat liver hepatocytes exposed to oxmetidine rapidly lose viability, an event preceded by a marked and rapid inhibition of cell respiration and depletion of ATP. In isolated rat liver mitochondria (RLM), oxmetidine inhibits pyruvate/malate- but not succinate-supported,
ADP
-stimulated oxygen consumption (state 3). The purpose of this investigation was to determine the exact molecular site of oxmetidine-induced inhibition of RLM electron transport. Oxmetidine did not significantly inhibit succinate-supported,
ADP
-stimulated state 3 oxygen consumption in isolated RLM at concentrations up to 0.5 mM. In contrast, oxmetidine significantly inhibited beta-hydroxybutyrate- or isocitrate-supported mitochondrial state 3 oxygen consumption at concentrations above 10 microM and 25 microM, respectively. In RLM electron transport particles (ETP), oxmetidine inhibited NADH-oxidase and
NADH-CoQ reductase
activity (IC50 of 3.4 microM and 2.6 microM, respectively). However, oxmetidine did not significantly affect NADH-Fe3(CN)6 reductase activity (at concentrations up to 200 microM). SK&F 92058, a thiourea analog of oxmetidine approximately 24-fold less toxic to hepatocytes, produced a similar pattern of inhibition of respiration, although far less potent (IC50 of 0.8 mM and 0.6 mM for NADH-oxidase and
NADH-CoQ reductase
, respectively). SK&F 92058 did not significantly inhibit NADH-Fe3(CN)6 reductase activity at concentrations up to 3.0 mM. Studies with [14C]oxmetidine failed to show any specific, saturable binding to rat liver ETP.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The effects of amiodarone on the respiration of isolated mouse liver mitochondria have been determined. Amiodarone (200 microM) had a biphasic effect on state 4 respiration supported by either glutamate plus malate or succinate. Initially, the respiratory rate was increased. This stimulatory effect was not prevented by oligomycin (an inhibitor of ATP synthase). It was associated with marked accumulation of amiodarone in the mitochondria, and with collapse of the mitochondrial membrane potential. This initial uncoupling effect was followed by a progressive decrease in the state 4 respiration rate, leading eventually to marked inhibition. Preincubation for 5 min with amiodarone (200 microM) also decreased markedly
ADP
-stimulated (state 3) respiration, ATP production and dinitrophenol-stimulated (uncoupled) respiration supported by glutamate plus malate (which donate electrons to complex I), and respiration supported by succinate (which donate electrons to complex II), but did not affect respiration supported by duroquinol (donating electrons to complex III) or by ascorbate plus N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine (donating electrons to cytochrome c). Preincubation with amiodarone (150-200 microM) decreased markedly respiration mediated by fatty acids of various chain length and respiration mediated by citrate, a tricarboxylic acid cycle substrate. We conclude that amiodarone has a dual effect on mitochondrial respiration. The initial uncoupling effect is probably due to the entry of protonated amiodarone, releasing a proton in the matrix. Accumulation of amiodarone soon leads to inhibition of the respiratory chain at the levels of
complex I
and complex II and to decreased ATP formation.

Exposure of isolated mouse hepatocytes to a toxic concentration of acetaminophen (5 mM) resulted in damage to the mitochondrial respiratory apparatus. The nature of this damage was investigated by measuring respiration stimulated by site-specific substrates in digitonin-permeabilized hepatocytes after acetaminophen exposure. Respiration stimulated by succinate at energy-coupling site 2 was most sensitive to inhibition and was decreased by 47% after 1 h. Respiration supported by NADH-linked substrates (site 1) was also decreased but to a lesser extent, while there was no decrease in the rate of ascorbate + N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine (TMPD)-supported respiration (site 3). The loss of mitochondrial respiratory function was accompanied by a decrease in ATP levels and ATP/
ADP
ratios in the cytosolic compartment and was preceded by a loss of reduced glutathione in both the cytosol and mitochondria. All these effects occurred well before the loss of cell membrane integrity. The putative toxic metabolite of acetaminophen, N-acetyl-p-benzoquinonimine (NAPQI), produced a similar pattern of respiratory dysfunction in isolated hepatic mitochondria. Respiration stimulated by succinate- and NADH-linked substrates was very sensitive to 50 microM NAPQI, while ascorbate + TMPD-supported respiration was unaffected. The interaction between NAPQI and the respiratory chain was further investigated using submitochondrial particles. Succinate dehydrogenase (associated with respiratory complex II) was found to be very sensitive to NAPQI, while
NADH dehydrogenase
(respiratory complex I) was inhibited to a lesser extent. Our results indicate that a loss of the ability to utilize succinate- and NADH-linked substrates due to attack of the respiratory chain by NAPQI causes a disruption of energy homeostasis in acetaminophen hepatotoxicity.

Some inflammatory mediators have been studied for their influence on the energy reactions of the liver mitochondria. Mediators were injected intraperitoneally to rats 15 min before decapitation in the following doses (per 100 g of the body) weight: histamine--0.5 mg, serotonin--0.5 mg, bradykinin--0.2 mg, andekalin--0.5 units. Histamine action in the body is connected with modification of the respiratory mitochondria chain and, like the oligomycin action, is directed to attended oxidation and phosphorylation points. Serotonin increases the mitochondria sensitivity to separating agents in succinate oxidation. It is supposed that serotonin-induced inhibition of oxidation of NAD-dependent substances is connected with
NADH2 dehydrogenase
inhibition or transhydrogenase reaction activation. Bradykinin has activated NAD-dependent substance oxidation and increased respiratory chain sensitivity on the SoQ link to 2,4-dinitrophenol action. Andekalin exerts an analogous effect intensifying
ADP
-, DNP- and Ca-stimulated respiration of mitochondria during succinate oxidation. Mechanism of the inflammatory mediators influence on the energy metabolism is discussed.

Hyperglycemic, but not normoglycemic cats exposed to anoxia develop neurologic signs following reoxygenation including fasciculations, focal and tonic-clonic seizures and coma after a symptom-free period. These symptomatic hyperglycemic cats may develop brain edema and will show diffuse neuronal injury or brain infarction depending on length of survival. Brain mitochondria isolated from symptomatic but not asymptomatic cats have decreased
ADP
- and uncoupler-stimulated oxygen consumption rates. Since impaired respiration could result from altered electron transport chain function, we measured cytochrome c, b, and aa3 concentrations and the activities of the five electron transfer complexes in isolated brain mitochondria. In symptomatic cats marked alterations were present in particular in complex IV, cytochrome oxidase, with a 57% reduction in activity and a 45% reduction in prosthetic group (cytochrome aa3) concentrations. Less marked reductions in other segments of the chain included 27% and 41% decreases, respectively, in cytochrome c concentrations and in electron transfer complex II, succinate:ubiquinone oxidoreductase activity. Cytochrome b concentrations and
complex I
, II and V activities were unchanged. Small but significant decreases in cytochrome aa3 concentrations (18%) and cytochrome oxidase activity (20%) were also present in mitochondria from postanoxic hyperglycemic cats prior to appearance of neurologic signs. These results indicate that delayed decreases in the activities of specific electron transfer complexes are correlated with impaired mitochondrial respiration and neurologic deterioration in postanoxic hyperglycemic cats. However, it is presently unclear if these postanoxic brain mitochondrial alterations are primary or secondary events in the development of brain injury.

We studied the effects of 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+), a metabolite of a parkinsonism-inducing drug, on the superoxide formation and the lipid peroxidation in bovine heart submitochondrial particles. The NADH-supported formation of superoxide radicals was induced by MPP+ at the concentration which is considered to exist in mitochondria of dopamine neurons. The formation increased as the
NADH-ubiquinone reductase
activity was inhibited by MPP+. The NADH-supported lipid peroxidation by the particles in the presence of
ADP
-Fe3+ chelate was also enhanced by MPP+ at similar concentrations. The formation was inhibited by succinate and the reduction of endogenous ubiquinone seems to be related to the inhibition. A possibility was discussed that the formation of superoxide anions and the lipid peroxidation may contribute in the cytotoxicity of the drug.

The main target of local anaesthetics on nervous tissue is the sodium channel. Molecular biology and electrophysiology have shown different mechanisms of action on this sodium channel, which depend on the chemical structure and electrostatic charge of the local anaesthetic molecule. There are two main types of action, shown up on the isolated axon, a direct one on the sodium channel itself and an alteration in the lipids surrounding the channel. These effects have been shown on the isolated axon and explain the anaesthetic effect by an inhibition of the sodium current. Experimental studies have also shown the effects of local anaesthetics on different organelles within the cell, and so on intracellular metabolism. Mitochondrial energetic metabolism, and therefore ATP synthesis, is reduced by local anaesthetics at several levels. The respiratory enzyme chain is inhibited by small concentrations of local anaesthetic, especially
NADH dehydrogenase
and ubiquinone succinate dehydrogenase. Moreover, local anaesthetics increase the mitochondrial membrane permeability to protons, thus removing the moving force behind ATPase activity in ATP synthesis; this leads to a drastic fall in available energy. This effect is further increased by a direct inhibition of ATPase and ATP/
ADP
translocation. Other enzyme systems of other organelles are also disturbed by local anaesthetics, such as the endoplasmic reticular Ca++ ATPase, which is inhibited, so altering the calcium concentration within the cytosol. Local anaesthetics also inhibit lipolysis and glycogenesis. Receptors such as the acetylcholine receptors are blocked by local anaesthetics. The mechanism of action of these drugs on all these protein systems is two-fold: an alteration of protein structure, but also of the lipids surrounding them.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The influence of hyperthermia on liver mitochondrial respiration and liver metabolites levels was studied by increasing body temperature to 41.0 degrees C in rats under oxygen and nitrous oxide anesthesia maintaining constant PaCo2. At 41.0 degrees C, the increase in ATP and energy charge level (EC) by Atkinson and the increase of state 3 and RCR in NADH linked substrate were observed. After maintaining body temperature at 41.0 degrees C for 30 minutes, the decrease in ATP, EC, state 3, RCR and
ADP
/O were observed. The degree of change from 38.0 degrees C to 41.0 degrees C in state 3, state 4, RCR and
ADP
/O was greater in NADH linked substrate than in non-NADH one. After keeping body temperature at 38.0 degrees C for 30 minutes by the whole body cooling, the recovery of EC, state 3 and RCR was observed. The effects of cooling with drugs (dantrolen or methyl-prednisolone) had no consistent effect. These findings suggest that the hyperthermic stress on mitochondrial respiration is focused on
complex I
in electron transport system.

The in vivo action of cyclosporine A (CS) on rat renal cortical mitochondria was investigated. CS (30 mg.kg-1.day-1) given orally to rats for 30 days caused an augmentation of renal mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. The
ADP
-stimulated respiratory rate was increased by 37.0% with glutamate plus malate as respiratory substrates (P less than 0.025) but not with succinate-supported respiration, indicating enhancement of mitochondrial
complex I
activity. This reaction may be a response to the 32.5% reduction of renal blood (P less than 0.005) in the CS-treated group, possibly serving to maximize ATP synthesis during ischemia. Ligation-induced decreases in renal blood flow also resulted in enhancement of mitochondrial
complex I
activity.

Initial Polytron treatment with subsequent exposure to the bacterial proteinase Nagarse has been shown to result in the isolation of two distinct populations of cardiac mitochondria, subsarcolemmal and interfibrillar mitochondria, respectively. Although these populations have been shown to possess distinct biochemical properties, few studies have been reported which document the potential differences in their response to pathological insult. We therefore examined the effect of acute hypoxia with or without reoxygenation as well as treatment with phosphate on oxidative phosphorylation on both groups of mitochondria. Freshly-isolated interfibrillar mitochondria (IFM) exhibited significantly higher respiratory values, with the exception of the
ADP
:O ratios, than subsarcolemmal mitochondria (SLM). With pyruvate-malate as respiratory substrate, 40 minutes hypoxia alone produced no effect on SLM whereas a stimulation in respiration was seen in IFM. A 40-minute reoxygenation period depressed the oxidative phosphorylation rate in SLM whereas it was stimulated in IFM. These treatments did not produce any effect in either population when succinate was the substrate of choice. Because of the latter observation, the possibility that increased lability of
complex I
of the electron transport chain accounted for the differences associated with NAD-linked substrates was studied by assessing NADH oxidation of sonicated mitochondria following the treatments. SLM exhibited enhanced permeability to exogenous NADH as well as increased sensitivity to sonication following either hypoxia or hypoxia/reoxygenation compared to IFM. Compared to hypoxia/reoxygenation, increasing concentrations of phosphate (5-15 mM) produced a marked depression in oxidative phosphorylation of SLM whereas IFM were relatively resistant. The toxic effects of phosphate were much more evident with pyruvate-malate as substrates; with succinate, oxidative phosphorylation of IFM was not depressed by phosphate whereas only a slight depression was observed with SLM. The latter population similarly exhibited reduced NADH oxidation following phosphate treatment whereas IFM were unaffected. Our studies show a differential sensitivity of two mitochondrial populations to hypoxia/reoxygenation, and, more markedly to phosphate. Since these effects were much less pronounced with succinate-linked respiration and since they were associated with defective NADH oxidation in SLM, it is suggested that the differences between the two populations may be accounted for by the increased lability of
complex I
of SLM due to hypoxia/reoxygenation or phosphate.
