The mitochondrial matrix subfractions from rat liver, kidney cortex, brain, heart, and skeletal muscle were isolated and their protein components were resolved by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, revealing between 120 and 150 components for each matrix subfraction. Excellent resolution was obtained utilizing a pH 5 to 8 gradient in the first dimension and in 8 to 13% exponential acrylamide gradient in the second dimension, increasing the number of mitochondrial matrix proteins observed 3-fold over one-dimensional systems. Protein components tentatively identified by co-migration with pure enzymes and by known tissue distributions are carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase (EC 2.7.2.5), ornithine transcarbamylase (EC 2.1.3.3), glutamate dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.3), pyruvate carboxylase (EC 6.4.1.1), citrate synthase (EC 4.1.3.7), fumarase (EC 4.2.1.2), aconitase (EC 4.2.1.3), alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.4.2), dihydrolipoyl transsuccinylase (EC 2.3.1.12), lipoamide dehydrogenase (EC 1.6.4.3), glutamate-aspartate aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.1), and the two subunits of pyruvate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.4.1). Protein components unambiguously identified by peptide mapping are citrate synthase, aconitase, and pyruvate carboxylase. The inner membrane subfraction from rat liver mitochondria was also resolved two dimensionally; the alpha and beta subunits of ATPase (F1) (EC 3.6.1.3) were identified by peptide mapping.

While laboratory experimental model of coronary heart disease (according to Frol'kis et al.) is developed, activity of succinate dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, Na+, Ka(+)- and Mg2+ ATPase decreases, but activity of lactate dehydrogenase and concentrations of lactic and pyruvic acids in the heart tissue increase. At the same time concentration of glycogene increases more than twice. As far as we can see there is an evidence of a decrease of glycogene utilization due to change in levels of regulatory processes. Despite a decrease of ATP synthesis by the inhibition of tricarboxylic acid cycle the ATP:ADP relation reduces to ATP, as emphatic inhibition of ATPase in the heart tissues takes place in development of the model of the coronary heart disease. The relation between ATP and ADP is considered as a regulator of glycogene utilization. In the liver tissue activity of succinate dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, Na+, K(+)- and Mg2+ ATPase falls, while concentrations of lactic acid grow. No accumulation of glycogen is observed. It is obvious that there are controversial metabolic processes. Experimental data are discussed.

The mechanical and energetic consequences of long-term volume-overload (VOL) hypertrophy have been investigated in rabbits and compared with the consequence in sham-operated controls (SOC). Hypertrophy was induced by creating an aortocaval shunt, and the mechanical, biochemical, and energetic properties of the compensated heart were examined approximately 12 wk later. At 27 degrees C and a stimulus frequency of 1 Hz there were no significant changes in peak stress development, 10-90% rise times, shortening velocity, work, and mechanical power output. There was, however, a prolongation of contractile duration. The inverse relationship between peak stress and cross-sectional area was unchanged in the VOL and SOC groups. Polarographic and myothermic experiments were made on papillary muscles. Hypertrophy produced a small increment in basal metabolism. In isometric studies there were no significant changes in either the activation heat magnitude or the slope of the heat-stress relationship. In isotonic contractions there was no change in work output or total enthalpy (heat + work), and as a result mechanical efficiency was unchanged. A force-length-area (FLA) analysis of the isotonic data showed no significant change in intercept or FLA contractile efficiency. Biochemical studies showed no significant difference in the myosin isoenzyme profile at the time of death. The Ca(2+)-stimulated adenosinetriphosphatase activity of the sarcoplasmic reticulum was unchanged as were the enzymatic activities of mitochondrial citrate synthase and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase. Interestingly essentially the same data were obtained from the hearts of four animals in failure and from the hearts of seven compensated animals.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The ATPase activity (proton ATPase) of rat liver mitochondria was studied 2, 24, 28, 96 and 168 h after acute tetrachloromethane poisoning. It is established that the tetrachloromethane poisoning. It is established that the tetrachloromethane poisoning is accompanied by a considerable activation of mitochondrial H+-ATPase and a decrease of the DNP and Ca+, Na+ and K+ activating influence on it. Maximum changes in the H+-ATPase activity is observed 24 h after poisoning. Changes in the H+-ATPase properties are accompanied by a fall in the alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase activities and by disturbance of the liver mitochondria contractile properties. The electrochemical membrane potential of the mitochondria under the effect of tetrachloromethane is supposed to be reduced due to a primary damage of the phospholipid matrix of the coupling membrane and an increase in its proton conductivity.

Rat liver mitochondria, stored with the energy-linked functions preserved or in aging conditions, were used to assay the activity of various enzymes during five days. The preservation of energy-linked functions was monitored by the respiratory control coefficient. ATPase, cytochrome oxidase and NADH dehydrogenase showed increased activity when the energy-linked functions were preserved. In aging conditions, cytochrome oxidase, NADH dehydrogenase and ATPase showed decreased activity. The ATPase activity increased only when mitochondria were stored in the presence of inhibitors of the electron transport chain. The activity of NADH oxidase did not change, and succinate oxidase and succinate dehydrogenase showed a small decrease in their activity. The enzymes of the matrix, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase and aspartate aminotransferase showed little decrease in activity under either of the conditions of storage. The total protein content decreased slightly under both conditions of storage. These results show that the activity of the enzymes analysed was maintained at reasonable levels, when the energy-linked functions of isolated mitochondria were preserved.

The mitochondrion is the only extranuclear organelle containing DNA (mtDNA). As such, genetically determined mitochondrial diseases may result from a molecular defect involving the mitochondrial or the nuclear genome. The first is characterized by maternal inheritance and the second by Mendelian inheritance. Ragged-red fibers (RRF) are commonly seen with primary lesions of mtDNA, but this association is not invariant. Conversely, RRF are seldom associated with primary lesions of nuclear DNA. Large-scale rearrangements (deletions and insertions) and point mutations of mtDNA are commonly associated with RRF and lactic acidosis, e.g. Kearns-Sayre syndrome (KSS) (major large-scale rearrangements), Pearson syndrome (large-scale rearrangements), myoclonus epilepsy with RRF (MERRF) (point mutation affecting tRNA(lys) gene), mitochondrial myopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes (MELAS) (two point mutations affecting tRNA(leu)(UUR) gene) and a maternally-inherited myopathy with cardiac involvement (MIMyCa) (point mutation affecting tRNA(leu)(UUR) gene). However, RRF and lactic acidosis are absent in Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) (one point mutation affecting ND4 gene, two point mutations affecting ND1 gene, and one point mutation affecting the apocytochrome b subunit of complex III), and the condition associated with maternally inherited sensory neuropathy (N), ataxia (A), retinitis pigmentosa (RP), developmental delay, dementia, seizures, and limb weakness (NARP) (point mutation affecting ATPase subunit 6 gene). The point mutations in MELAS, MIMyCa, and MERRF, and the large-scale mtDNA rearrangements in KSS and Pearson syndrome have a broader biochemical impact since these molecular defects involve the translational sequence of mitochondrial protein synthesis. The nuclear defects involving mitochondrial function generally are not associated with RRF. The biochemical classification of mitochondrial diseases principally catalogues these nuclear defects. This classification divides mitochondrial diseases into five categories. Primary and secondary deficiencies of carnitine are examples of a substrate transport defect. A lipid storage myopathy is often present. Disturbances of pyruvate or fatty acid metabolism are examples of substrate utilization defects. Only four defects of the Krebs cycle are known: fumarase deficiency, dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase deficiency, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase deficiency, and combined defects of muscle succinate dehydrogenase and aconitase. Luft disease is the singular example of a defect in oxidation-phosphorylation coupling. Defects of respiratory chain function are manifold. Two clinical syndromes predominate, one involving limb weakness, and the other primarily affecting brain function. Leigh syndrome may result from different enzyme defects, most notably pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency, cytochrome c oxidase deficiency, complex I deficiency, and complex V deficiency associated with the recently described NARP point mutation. A new group of mitochondrial diseases has emerged.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Mitochondrial membrane potential (delta psi(m)) was determined in intact isolated nerve terminals using the membrane potential-sensitive probe JC-1. Oxidative stress induced by H2O2 (0.1-1 mM) caused only a minor decrease in delta psi(m). When complex I of the respiratory chain was inhibited by rotenone (2 microM), delta psi(m) was unaltered, but on subsequent addition of H2O2, delta psi(m) started to decrease and collapsed during incubation with 0.5 mM H2O2 for 12 min. The ATP level and [ATP]/[ADP] ratio were greatly reduced in the simultaneous presence of rotenone and H2O2. H2O2 also induced a marked reduction in delta psi(m) when added after oligomycin (10 microM), an inhibitor of F0F1-ATPase. H2O2 (0.1 or 0.5 mM) inhibited alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase and decreased the steady-state NAD(P)H level in nerve terminals. It is concluded that there are at least two factors that determine delta psi(m) in the presence of H2O2: (a) The NADH level reduced owing to inhibition of alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase is insufficient to ensure an optimal rate of respiration, which is reflected in a fall of delta psi(m) when the F0F1-ATPase is not functional. (b) The greatly reduced ATP level in the presence of rotenone and H2O2 prevents maintenance of delta psi(m) by F0F1-ATPase. The results indicate that to maintain delta psi(m) in the nerve terminal during H2O2-induced oxidative stress, both complex I and F0F1-ATPase must be functional. Collapse of delta psi(m) could be a critical event in neuronal injury in ischemia or Parkinson's disease when H2O2 is generated in excess and complex I of the respiratory chain is simultaneously impaired.

We present an integrated thermokinetic model describing control of cardiac mitochondrial bioenergetics. The model describes the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, oxidative phosphorylation, and mitochondrial Ca(2+) handling. The kinetic component of the model includes effectors of the TCA cycle enzymes regulating production of NADH and FADH(2), which in turn are used by the electron transport chain to establish a proton motive force (Delta mu(H)), driving the F(1)F(0)-ATPase. In addition, mitochondrial matrix Ca(2+), determined by Ca(2+) uniporter and Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger activities, regulates activity of the TCA cycle enzymes isocitrate dehydrogenase and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase. The model is described by twelve ordinary differential equations for the time rate of change of mitochondrial membrane potential (Delta Psi(m)), and matrix concentrations of Ca(2+), NADH, ADP, and TCA cycle intermediates. The model is used to predict the response of mitochondria to changes in substrate delivery, metabolic inhibition, the rate of adenine nucleotide exchange, and Ca(2+). The model is able to reproduce, qualitatively and semiquantitatively, experimental data concerning mitochondrial bioenergetics, Ca(2+) dynamics, and respiratory control. Significant increases in oxygen consumption (V(O(2))), proton efflux, NADH, and ATP synthesis, in response to an increase in cytoplasmic Ca(2+), are obtained when the Ca(2+)-sensitive dehydrogenases are the main rate-controlling steps of respiratory flux. These responses diminished when control is shifted downstream (e.g., the respiratory chain or adenine nucleotide translocator). The time-dependent behavior of the model, under conditions simulating an increase in workload, closely reproduces experimentally observed mitochondrial NADH dynamics in heart trabeculae subjected to changes in pacing frequency. The steady-state and time-dependent behavior of the model support the hypothesis that mitochondrial matrix Ca(2+) plays an important role in matching energy supply with demand in cardiac myocytes.

The morphological and certain metabolic effects of carbon tetrachloride intoxication were studied in the rat with emphasis on liver alterations. Morphological changes were investigated by histological and electron microscopical means. Functional changes were investigated using histochemical and amino acid incorporation, techniques. The liver constituents were examined chemically. Plasma volume alterations were measured using dye and homologous protein dilution techniques. The histological appearance of the liver of treated animals included cellular swelling, dispersal of the cytoplasmic basophilia, and necrosis. Electron micrographs showed an early (3 hours following carbon tetrachloride administration) and widespread dislocation of the ribonucleoprotein particles from the membranes of the rough endoplasmic reticulum, but no apparent alteration in the mitochondrial structure. Histochemical examination of two mitochondrial enzyme systems, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase and succinic dehydrogenase, revealed no alterations in activities until a later time (6 to 12 hours following carbon tetrachloride administration). ATPase showed a gross quantitative decrease in activity at 6 and 12 hours, but not earlier. There was a decreased amino acid incorporation into two liver-produced proteins, viz., albumin and fibrinogen. This decrease is not explicable on the basis of the inability of the liver to take up the amino acid, an altered dilution volume into which the amino acid or formed protein is placed, or an impaired capacity of the liver to excrete protein once formed. It is concluded that the decreased amino acid incorporation rate reflects depressed synthesis of protein by the liver. Other pathological changes in the liver, including necrosis, fatty change, and mitochondrial alterations may be dependent upon severe impairment of protein synthesis.

Wilson's disease results from mutations in the P-type Cu(2+)-ATPase causing Cu(2+) toxicity. We previously demonstrated that exposure of mixed neuronal/glial cultures to 20 microM Cu(2+) induced ATP loss and death that were attenuated by mitochondrial substrates, activators, and cofactors. Here, we show differential cellular sensitivity to Cu(2+) that was equalized to 5 microM in the presence of the copper exchanger/ionophore, disulfiram. Because Cu(2+) facilitates formation of oxygen radicals (ROS) which inhibit pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase (KGDH), we hypothesized that their inhibition contributed to Cu(2+)-induced death. Toxic CU(2+) exposure was accompanied by early inhibition of neuronal and hepatocellular PDH and KGDH activities, followed by reduced mitochondrial transmembrane potential, DeltaPsi(M). Thiamine (1-6 mM), and dihydrolipoic acid (LA, 50 microM), required cofactors for PDH and KGDH, attenuated this enzymatic inhibition and subsequent death in all cell types. Furthermore, liver PDH and KGDH activities were reduced in the Atp7b mouse model of Wilson's disease prior to liver damage, and were partially restored by oral thiamine supplementation. These data support our hypothesis that Cu(2+)-induced ROS may inhibit PDH and KGDH resulting in neuronal and hepatocellular death. Therefore, thiamine or lipoic acid may constitute potential therapeutic agents for Wilson's disease.
