Mitochondrial membrane permeability transition and cell death [PDF]
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2006 Mitochondria are important organelles for energy production, Ca2+ homeostasis, and cell death. In recent years, the role of the mitochondria in both apoptotic and necrotic cell death has received much attention. In apoptotic and necrotic death, an increase of mitochondrial membrane permeability is considered to be one of the key events, although the ...

Permeability of the liver cell membrane to quinolinate [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1977 Quinolinate was taken up by both rat and guinea-pig liver cells. Equilibrium was reached after approx. 20 min with rat cells, but guinea-pig cells had not achieved a steady state after 60 min. There was no evidence to suggest that quinolinate is rapidly metabolized by either species.

CO2 permeability of the rat erythrocyte membrane and its inhibition
Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2021 We have studied the CO2 permeability of the erythrocyte membrane of the rat using a mass spectrometric method that employs 18 O-labelled CO2. The method yields, in addition, the intraerythrocytic carbonic anhydrase activity and the membrane HCO3 ...

Significance of two transmembrane ion gradients for human erythrocyte volume stabilization.
PLoS ONE, 2022 Functional effectiveness of erythrocytes depends on their high deformability that allows them to pass through narrow tissue capillaries. The erythrocytes can deform easily due to discoid shape provided by the stabilization of an optimal cell volume at a ...

Fusogenic structural changes in arenavirus glycoproteins are associated with viroporin activity.
PLoS Pathogens, 2023 Many enveloped viruses enter host cells by fusing with acidic endosomes. The fusion activity of multiple viral envelope glycoproteins does not generally affect viral membrane permeability.
