The mitochondrial permeability transition pore is a dispensable element for mitochondrial calcium efflux
The mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) has long been known to have a role in mitochondrial calcium (Ca(2+)) homeostasis under pathological conditions as a mediator of the mitochondrial permeability transition and the activation of the consequent cell death mechanism. However, its role in the context of mitochondrial Ca(2+) homeostasis is not yet clear. Several studies that were b...
متن کاملMitochondrial (dys)function and regulation of macrophage cholesterol efflux.
Cholesterol trafficking from the outer to the cholesterol-poor inner mitochondrial membrane requires energized, polarized and actively respiring mitochondria, mediated by a highly regulated multimeric (140-200 kDa) protein complex comprising StAR (steroidogenic acute regulatory protein), mitochondrial TSPO (translocator protein), VDAC (voltage-dependent anion channel), ANT (adenine nucleotide t...
متن کاملMitochondrial fusion is essential for organelle function and cardiac homeostasis.
RATIONALE Mitochondria constitute 30% of myocardial mass. Mitochondrial fusion and fission appear essential for health of most tissues. Mitochondrial fission occurs in neonatal cardiomycyte and is implicated in cardiomyocyte death. Mitochondrial fusion has not been observed in postmitotic myocytes of adult hearts, and its occurrence and function in this context are controversial. OBJECTIVE De...
متن کاملSodium-calcium exchange is essential for effective triggering of calcium release in mouse heart.
In cardiac myocytes, excitation-contraction coupling depends upon sarcoplasmic reticular Ca2+ release triggered by Ca2+ influx through L-type Ca2+ channels. Although Na+-Ca2+ exchange (NCX) is essential for Ca2+ extrusion, its participation in the trigger process of excitation-contraction coupling is controversial. To investigate the role of NCX in triggering, we examined Ca2+ sparks in ventric...
متن کاملPyrophosphate metabolism in the perfused heart and isolated heart mitochondria and its role in regulation of mitochondrial function by calcium.
1. Langendorff-perfused rat hearts were treated, either alone or in combination, with acetate, adrenaline or supraphysiological [Ca2+] to mimic increased workload. No significant increases in the PPi content of the freeze-clamped tissue were observed. 2. In contrast with liver mitochondria, isolated rat heart mitochondria incubated at a free [Mg2+] of 1.5 mM showed little or no increase in matr...
