Effect of Fluoride on the Respiration Rate of Rat Cardiac Mitochondria
نویسندگان
چکیده
Fluoride by modifying the activity of mitochondrial enzymes may change their respiration rate. In this study NaF at concentrations 5, 10, and 50 μM had no effect on the State 3 respiration rate of rat cardiac mitochondria with succinate substrate. At a higher concentration of 7.5 mM, a significant (p<0.001) decrease by as much as 120.4 ± 5.7 nmol [O]/min/mg protein occurred in the State 3 respiration rate with succinate. Further increase in NaF concentration (15 and 25 mM) resulted in a reproducible decrease in the oxidation rate of the succinate in dose-dependent manner.

متن کاملIncreased uncoupling proteins and decreased efficiency in palmitate-perfused hyperthyroid rat heart.
The physiological role of mitochondrial uncoupling proteins (UCPs) in heart and skeletal muscle is unknown, as is whether mitochondrial uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation by fatty acids occurs in vivo. In this study, we found that UCP2 and UCP3 protein content, determined using Western blotting, was increased by 32 and 48%, respectively, in hyperthyroid rat heart mitochondria. Oligomycin-i...
متن کاملMitochondrial ATP-sensitive K+ channels modulate cardiac mitochondrial function.
Discovered in the cardiac sarcolemma, ATP-sensitive K+(KATP) channels have more recently also been identified within the inner mitochondrial membrane. Yet the consequences of mitochondrial KATP channel activation on mitochondrial function remain partially documented. Therefore, we isolated mitochondria from rat hearts and used K+ channel openers to examine the effect of mitochondrial KATPchanne...
