The mitochondrial permeability transition pore.
This chapter reviews recent advances in the identification of the structural elements of the permeability transition pore. The discovery that cyclosporin A (CsA) inhibits the pore proved instrumental. Various approaches indicate that CsA blocks the pore by binding to cyclophilin (CyP)-D. In particular, covalent labelling of CyP-D in situ by a photoactive CsA derivative has shown that pore ligan...
متن کاملIndividual Cardiac Mitochondria Undergo Rare Transient Permeability Transition Pore Openings.
RATIONALE Mitochondria produce ATP, especially critical for survival of highly aerobic cells, such as cardiac myocytes. Conversely, opening of mitochondrial high-conductance and long-lasting permeability transition pores (mPTP) causes respiratory uncoupling, mitochondrial injury, and cell death. However, low conductance and transient mPTP openings (tPTP) might limit mitochondrial Ca(2+) load an...
متن کاملIndividual Cardiac Mitochondria Undergo Rare Transient Permeability Transition Pore Openings
Mitochondria sustain cellular life through energy production but also mediate programmed cell death. ATP production is mainly via cellular respiration, which is driven by the voltage gradient (ΔΨ m ) across the inner mitochondrial membrane that drives proton flux through the F 0 F 1 –ATP synthase. Extremely low resting inner mitochondrial membrane permeability is critical to maintain high ΔΨ m ...
متن کاملMitochondrial permeability transition pore and postconditioning.
Postconditioning has recently been described as a powerful cardioprotection that prevents lethal reperfusion injury. Growing evidence suggests that mitochondrial permeability transition may be a key event in postconditioning. This proposition arises from the complementary observations that: (1) conditions for the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) opening are built up during earl...
متن کاملMitochondrial permeability transition pore: an enigmatic gatekeeper
Mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) is a transient structure formed in the inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM) upon oxidative challenge of the organelle. The transition is a Ca 2+ -dependent increase of permeability of IMM leading to loss of transmembrane potential (∆ψm), mitochondrial swelling and, finally, rupture of outer mitochondrial membrane leading to release of factors caus...
