Simultaneous imaging of cell and mitochondrial membrane potentials.
The distribution of charged membrane-permeable molecular probes between intracellular organelles, the cytoplasm, and the outside medium is governed by the relative membrane electrical potentials of these regions through coupled equilibria described by the Nernst equation. A series of highly fluorescent cationic dyes of low membrane binding and toxicity (Ehrenberg, B., V. Montana, M.-D. Wei, J. ...
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 کاملMembrane Potentials and Action Potentials
Electrical potentials exist across the membranes of virtually all cells of the body. In addition, some cells, such as nerve and muscle cells, are capable of generating rapidly changing electrochemical impulses at their membranes, and these impulses are used to transmit signals along the nerve or muscle membranes. In other types of cells, such as glandular cells, macrophages, and ciliated cells,...
متن کاملCellular energy metabolism, trans-plasma and trans-mitochondrial membrane potentials, and pH gradients in mouse neuroblastoma.
A method for quantitative evaluation of transmembrane electrical potential and pH gradients across a subcellular compartment in an intact cell is presented. This approach has been applied in studies of mouse neuroblastoma C-1300 clone NB41A3, in which the transmembrane electrical potential and pH gradients and the mitochondrial volume percent have been determined. Membrane potentials and pH gra...
متن کاملIntracellular heterogeneity in mitochondrial membrane potentials revealed by a J-aggregate-forming lipophilic cation JC-1.
By using a potential-dependent J-aggregate-forming delocalized lipophilic cation, 5,5',6,6'-tetrachloro-1,1',3,3'-tetraethylbenzimidazolocarbocyanine++ + iodide (JC-1), we find that membrane potentials across mitochondria in a living cell can be heterogeneous. Remarkably, even within a long contiguous mitochondrion, regional heterogeneity in membrane potentials appears to be possible.
