The effect of aminoguanidine on sperm motility and mitochondrial membrane potential in varicocelized rats
Objective(s): Increased levels of nitric oxide (NO) in the testicular veins of people suffering from varicocele have already been reported. However, the role of NO-synthase (NOS) isozymes and their inhibitors have not been extensively studied. We aimed to evaluate the inhibitory effects of aminoguanidine (AG), on sperm motility, vitality, and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) in varicoceli...
متن کاملMyocardial imaging for mitochondrial membrane potential.
c p p r p q m Rest and stress myocardial perfusion imaging, described nearly 4 decades ago (1), is now performed in 9 million people annually in the United States (2). The procedure provides clinically useful data regardless of whether the tracer is a monovalent cation such as potassium, thallium, or rubidium; a highly diffusible agent such as O-labeled water; an amino acid precursor such as am...
متن کاملEvaluating mitochondrial membrane potential in cells.
Permeant cationic fluorescent probes are widely employed to monitor mitochondrial transmembrane potential and its changes. The application of such potential-dependent probes in conjunction with both fluorescence microscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy allows the monitoring of mitochondrial membrane potential in individual living cells as well as in large population of cells. These approaches t...
متن کاملPlatelet mitochondrial membrane potential in Parkinson's disease
OBJECTIVE Mitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD), which has been reported not to be restricted to striatal neurons. However, studies that analyzed mitochondrial function at the level of selected enzymatic activities in peripheral tissues have produced conflicting data. We considered the electron transport chain as a complex system with mitochondrial memb...
متن کاملMitochondrial and Plasma Membrane Potential Dependence
The fundamental myocellular uptake and retention mechanisms of hexakis (2-methoxyisobutyl isonitrile) technetium(I) (Tc-MIBI), a technetium-99m-based myocardial perfusion imaging agent, are unresolved. Because of the lipophilic cationic nature of Tc-MIBI, it may be distributed across biological membranes in response to transmembrane potential. To test this hypothesis, net uptake and retention o...
