The effects of three tetrachlorobiphenylols [2',3',4',5'-tetrachloro-2-biphenylol (1); 2',3',4',5'-tetrachloro-4- biphenylol (2); and 2',3',4',5'-tetrachloro-3-biphenylol (3)]; three monochlorobiphenylols [5-chloro-2-biphenylol (5), 3-chloro-2-biphenylol (6); and 2-chloro-4-biphenylol (7)] and a tetrachlorobiphenyldiol [3,3',5,5'-tetrachloro-4,4'-biphenyldiol (4) on respiration, adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity, and swelling in isolated mouse liver mitochondria have been investigated. Tetrachlorobiphenylols (1-3) and the tetrachlorobiphenyldiol (4) inhibited state-3 respiration in a concentration-dependent manner with succinate as substrate (flavin adenine dinucleotide [FAD]-linked) and the tetrachlorobiphenyldiol (4) caused a more pronounced inhibitory effect on state-3 respiration than the other congeners. The monochlorobiphenylols 5-7 were less active as inhibitors of state-3 mitochondrial respiration and significant effects were observed only at higher concentration (greater than or equal to 0.4 microM). However, in the presence of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-linked substrates (glutamate plus malate), hydroxylated PCBs (1-7) significantly inhibited mitochondrial state-3 respiration in a concentration-dependent manner. Compounds 5, 6, and 7 uncoupled mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation only in the presence of FAD-linked substrate as evidenced by increased oxygen consumption during state-4 respiratory transition, stimulating ATPase activity, releasing oligomycin-inhibited respiration, and inducing mitochondrial swelling (5, 6, and 7). Tetrachlorobiphenylols 1, 2, and 3 had no effect on mitochondrial ATPase activity while the tetrachlorobiphenyldiol, 4, decreased the enzyme activity. The possible inhibitory site of electron transport by these compounds and their toxicologic significance is discussed.

The effects of butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), a commonly used food antioxidant, on oxygen consumption, ATPase activity, and the redox state of some electron carriers of rat liver mitochondria have been studied. It was observed that BHA slightly stimulated state 4 respiration but strongly inhibited ADP- and uncoupler-stimulated respiration on NAD(+)- and FAD-linked substrates. ATPase activity and vectorial H+ ejection were affected only slightly by BHA, suggesting that BHA predominantly inhibits mitochondrial electron flow. Experiments to determine its site of action showed that BHA did not noticeably affect electron flow through cytochrome oxidase; in contrast, NADH:duroquinone reductase activity and electron flow through ubiquinone-cytochrome b-cytochrome c complex were inhibited strongly because the oxidation of duroquinol was affected markedly. The BHA block of electron transport was bypassed by both N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine and 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol. Also, the presence of BHA changed the redox state of cytochrome b and c1 to a more oxidized level. These observations suggest that electron transport is inhibited by BHA at the NADH-ubiquinone and at the ubiquinone-cytochrome b levels. From Hill plots, it is clear that more than one binding site is involved in complete inhibition; in addition, available evidence suggests that there may be two sites at the substrate side of ubiquinone and another two sites at the oxygen side of ubiquinone. Consequently, mitochondrial ATP synthesis would be interrupted. This event could be related to the toxicity of BHA.

The effect of halothane, a potent and popular volatile anesthetic, on isolated rat liver mitochondria was examined. Halothane inhibited state 3 and dinitrophenol-induced uncoupled respiration with NAD(+)-linked substrates, but not with FAD-linked substrates, and did not affect the oxidation-reduction state of mitochondrial cytochromes. Moreover, halothane increased state 4 respiration and ATPase activity and decreased the extra-mitochrondrial pH change coupled to ATP synthesis. These results indicate that halothane impairs mitochondrial ATP production by interfering with both the electron transport from NAD+ to FAD and the coupling of oxidative phosphorylation. Halothane only slightly affected the membrane potential, which is commonly dissipated by typical classical uncouplers. Moreover, halothane inhibited both ATP-driven and respiration-driven Ca2+ accumulation in mitochondria and stimulated Ca2+ release from mitochondrial stores at concentrations higher than those at which it inhibited ATP production. These findings indicate that the uncoupling action of halothane is not classical. During halothane anesthesia, these mitochondrial abnormalities may contribute to hepatocyte dysfunctions.

Bacterial plasmids have genes that confer highly specific resistances to As, Bi, Cd, Cu, Cr, Hg, Pb, Te, Zn, and other toxic heavy metals. For each toxic cation or anion, generally a different resistance system exists, and these systems may be "linked" together on multiple resistance plasmids. For Cd2+, AsO2-, AsO4(3)-, Hg2+, and organomercurials, DNA sequence analysis has supplemented direct physiological and biochemical experiments to produce sophisticated understanding. The cadA ATPase of S. aureus plasmids is a 727 amino acid membrane ATPase that pumps Cd2+ from the cells as rapidly as it is accumulated. This polypeptide is related by sequence to other cation translocating ATPases, including the membrane K+ ATPases of Escherichia coli and Streptococcus faecalis, the H+ ATPases of yeast and Neurospora, the Na+/K+ ATPases of vertebrate animals, and the Ca2+ ATPases of rabbit muscle. The conserved residues include the aspartyl residue that is phosphorylated, the lysine involved in ATP binding, and the proline within a membrane translocating region. The arsenate and arsenite translocating ATPase consists of 3 polypeptides (from DNA sequence analysis), including a recognizable ATP binding protein (arsA), an integral membrane protein (arsB gene), and a substrate specificity subunit (arsC gene). Inorganic mercury and organomercurial degradation is carried out by a series of about 6 polypeptides, including 2 soluble intracellular enzymes (organomercurial lyase and mercuric reductase). The latter is related by sequence and function to glutathione reductase and lipoamide dehydrogenase of prokaryotes and eukaryotes. These enzymes are dimeric, FAD-containing, NAD(P)H-dependent oxidoreductases. Other recognizable polypeptides in the mer system include a DNA-binding regulatory protein from the merR gene and a Hg2+ transport system consisting of a periplasmic Hg2(+)-binding protein (merP gene) and a membrane protein (merT gene) in gram negative systems.

The effect of hyperthermia (1 hr, 41 degrees C) on the functional properties of Ehrlich ascites tumor mitochondria was investigated. Mitochondria isolated from Ehrlich ascites tumor after exposure of whole cells to 41 degrees C for 1 hr still phosphorylate and maintain a normal acceptor control ratio (ACR). The temperature decreases state 4 and ADP-and FCCP-stimulated respiration on various substrates entering at three energy-conserving sites of the respiratory chain. The inhibition of oxygen consumption by NAD- and FAD-linked substrates was 40% for state 4 and 70% for ADP- or FCCP-stimulated respiration. State 4 and FCCP-stimulated respiration of mitochondria on TMPD + ascorbate was affected 38% and 45%, respectively. ATPase activity was unaffected by hyperthermia, indicating that under these experimental conditions, the inhibition of ADP-stimulated respiration does not depend on an effect on either Fo F1-ATPase or adenine translocase, the activity of which is required for ATP entry prior to ATPase activity. Because of the inability to detect a specific site of action of temperature, it is conceivable that hyperthermia might inhibit substrate oxidation by altering some components of the inner mitochondrial membrane, which regulates the kinetic properties of the membrane-associated enzymes.

The effect of lonidamine, an antispermatogenic and antitumor drug, on the oxygen consumption, ATPase activity, and redox state of the electron carriers of Ehrlich ascites tumor mitochondria has been studied. Lonidamine inhibits ADP- and uncoupler-stimulated respiration on various NAD- and FAD-linked substrates, but does not affect state 4 respiration. Experiments to determine its site of action showed that lonidamine does not significantly inhibit electron flow through cytochrome oxidase. Electron flow through site 2, the ubiquinone-cytochrome b-cytochrome c1 complex, also was unaffected by lonidamine, which failed to inhibit the oxidation of duroquinol. Moreover, inhibition of electron flow through site 2 was also excluded because of the inability of the N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine bypass to relieve the lonidamine inhibition of the oxidation of pyruvate + malate. The F0F1ATPase activity and vectorial H+ ejection are also unaffected by lonidamine. The inhibition of succinate oxidation by lonidamine was found to take place at a point between succinate and iron-sulfur center S3. Spectroscopic experiments demonstrated that lonidamine inhibits the reduction of mitochondrial NAD+ by pyruvate + malate and other NAD-linked substrates in the transition from state 1 to state 4. However, lonidamine does not inhibit reduction of added NAD+ by submitochondrial vesicles or by soluble purified NAD-linked dehydrogenases. These observations, together with other evidence, suggest that electron transport in tumor mitochondria is inhibited by lonidamine at the dehydrogenase-coenzyme level, particularly when the electron carriers are in a relatively oxidized state and/or when the inner membrane-matrix compartment is in the condensed state. The action of lonidamine in several respects resembles the selective inhibition of electron transport in tumor cells produced by cytotoxic macrophages (D. L. Granger and A. L. Lehninger (1982) J. Cell Biol. 95, 527).

Three distinct enzymes hydrolyzing either ApppA or AppppA, or both, were separated and purified from yellow lupin seed extracts. Two of the enzymes were purified to homogeneity. These enzymes differ greatly in their catalytic and physical properties. One hydrolase, with a native molecular weight of 41,000, exhibits broad pH (from 5-8) optimum for activity, requires Mg2+ for activity, is inhibited by zinc ions (I0.5 = 25 microM) and hydrolyses ApppA (V = 1), ApppC (V = 0.38), ApppG (V = 0.2), and ribose(5')pppA (V = 0.2). The enzyme exhibits much lower activity with AppppA (V = 0.1), and ApppppA, AppppppA, ppppA, and ATP are hydrolyzed 25- to 100-fold slower then ApppA. ADP was always one of the products of the reactions catalyzed by the enzyme. AppA, NAD, NADP, FAD, cAMP, and p-nitrophenyl-thymidine 5'-phosphate were not hydrolyzed by the enzyme. The enzyme is diadenosine 5',5"'-P1, P3-triphosphatase. The second hydrolase, composed of one polypeptide chain of a molecular weight 18,000-18,500, exhibits optimal activity in the pH range from 7.5-9, requires Mg2+ for activity, is inhibited by calcium ions (I0.5 for calcium depends on the concentration of Mg2+ and is 35-180 microM in the presence of 0.5-10 mM Mg2+, respectively), and hydrolyzes AppppA (V = 1, Km = 1 microM), ApppppA (V = 0.42, Km = 1.8 microM), AppppppA (V = 0.34), AppppU (V = 0.73), AppppC (V = 0.67), AppppG (V = 0.27), and ppppA. ATP was always one of the products of the reactions catalyzed by the enzyme. Dinucleoside di- and triphosphates, ATP, cAMP, and p-nitrophenylthymidine 5'-phosphate were not hydrolyzed by the enzyme. This enzyme is diadenosine 5',5"'-P1,P4-tetraphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.17). The third hydrolase, composed of one polypeptide chain of a molecular weight of 56,000, exhibits maximal activity at pH 9-10.5, does not require Mg2+ ions for activity, is inhibited neither by divalent cations (Mg2+, Ca2+, Zn2+, Co2+, Mn2+, or Ni2+) nor by EDTA, and uses as substrates all compounds which are substrates for the diadenosine 5',5"'-P1,P3-triphosphatase and diadenosine 5',5"'-P1,P4-tetraphosphatase. In addition, the enzyme hydrolyzes p-nitrophenyl-thymidine 5'-phosphate, p-nitrophenylthymidine 3'-phosphate, bis-p-nitrophenylphosphate, ADP, AppA, NAD, NADP, and FAD, but not cAMP. With the exception of p-nitrophenylphosphate derivatives all other substrates of the enzyme yield AMP as one of the products of hydrolysis. This enzyme has a specificity similar to that of phosphodiesterases (EC 3.1.4.1) from other sources. With the lupin phosphodiesterase, ApppA (V = 1, Km = 2.2 microM) and AppppA (V = 1, Km = 2.0 microM) are better substrates than NAD (V = 0.8, Km = 9.6 microM), AppA (V = 0.4), ApppppA (V = 0.6), and AppppppA (V = 0.34).

The intraperitoneal injection of glucagon or the intravenous infusion of oleic acid provoked a rapid change in the properties of rat liver mitochondrial ATPase. When mitochondria of treated animals were isolated an increase in ATPase activity was observed as well as a modification on the response to activators and inhibitors and to the sulfhydryl reagent N-ethylmaleimide. Sensitivity to the activators dinitrophenol or bicarbonate decreased, whereas the sensitivity to inhibitors KOCN and KSCN increased, and an inhibitory effect of N-ethylmaleimide appeared. These effects gradually disappeared when mitochondrial suspensions were kept at 10 degrees C, and after approximately 5 h ATPase from mitochondria of treated and control animals behaved almost identically. If the oxidizing agent dichlorophenolindophenol was added to the isolated mitochondria the effects induced by glucagon or fatty acids immediately disappeared. The activation caused by the reducing agent dithionite on ATPase activity in mitochondria from control animals did not take place in fresh mitochondria from treated animals; however, dithionite was effective in these latter mitochondria when tested 5 h later after keeping them at 10 degrees C. The intravenous infusion of oleic acid produced a rise in the [NADH]/[NAD+] and [Total flavin]/[FAD] ratios in mitochondria, and values double as those in the controls were observed; these values gradually approached those of the control mitochondria when kept at 10 degrees C; after 24 h these ratios were the same in mitochondrial suspensions from treated and nontreated animals. These results suggest that the modification of the properties of mitochondrial ATPase induced by glucagon or fatty acids might be mediated by a change in the mitochondrial redox state.

The effect of the association of gossypol and Lonidamine on the electron transport in Ehrlich ascites tumor mitochondria has been investigated by addition of drugs to isolated mitochondria. The results may be summarized as follows. (1) Low concentrations of gossypol increase the rate of oxygen consumption at the level of three energy-conserving sites of the respiratory chain. Higher concentrations result in an inhibition of oxygen consumption at (or near) both energy-conserving sites 1 and 2, while energy-conserving site 3 is unaffected. (2) Gossypol, at concentrations at which it exerts its uncoupling effect, stimulates ATPase activity. Higher concentrations inhibit the enzyme activity. (3) The addition of gossypol to mitochondria respiring on pyruvate plus malate or succinate induces a more oxidized state of NAD+ and cytochrome b, respectively. (4) Gossypol enhances the effect of Lonidamine on oxygen consumption. Lonidamine does not affect state 4 respiration, but in the presence of gossypol, it determines a marked decrease in the rate of oxygen consumption. The inhibition of oxidation of NAD-linked substrates is greater than that of FAD-linked substrates. (5) It may be concluded that gossypol is very effective in potentiating the effect of Lonidamine. Moreover, it may be suggested that the antitumor activity of Lonidamine is enhanced if it is used in combination with other drugs and/or treatments, such as hyperthermia, which modify the energy status of mitochondria.

The effect of reperfusion following 30 min of cerebral ischaemia on brain mitochondrial respiratory chain activity has been studied in the gerbil. The state 3 respiration rates with both FAD- and NAD-linked substrates were reduced after ischaemia. After 5 min of reperfusion, state 3 respiration with FAD-linked substrates was restored, but levels of NAD-linked substrates did not return to control values until 30 min of reperfusion. By 120 min of reperfusion state 3 respiration decreased relative to control values with all substrates studied. Measurement of the individual respiratory chain complexes showed that complex I, complex II-III, and complex V activities were reduced after ischaemia. By 5 min of reperfusion complex II-III activity was restored, but the activities of complexes I and V did not return to control values until 30 min of reperfusion. In contrast, complex IV activity was unaffected by ischaemia or 5 and 30 min of reperfusion but was significantly reduced after 120 min of reperfusion, possibly owing to free radical production and lipid peroxidation.
