Mitochondrial ROS Production at Complexes I and III in Human Myocardium and Skeletal Muscle: A Distinct Pattern Compared with Rat Tissue [PDF]
Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a central role in cardiac ischemia/reperfusion injury, heart failure, and arrhythmogenesis, while also serving essential signaling functions under physiological conditions.

Targeting the complex I and III of mitochondrial electron transport chain as a potentially viable option in liver cancer management [PDF]
Liver cancer is one of the most common and lethal types of oncological disease in the world, with limited treatment options. New treatment modalities are desperately needed, but their development is hampered by a lack of insight into the underlying ...

Mitochondrial Electron Transport Chain Complex III Is Required for Antimycin A to Inhibit Autophagy
Autophagy is a cellular lysosome-dependent catabolic mechanism mediating the turnover of intracellular organelles and long-lived proteins. We show that antimycin A, a known inhibitor of mETC complex III, can inhibit autophagy. A structural and functional study shows that four close analogs of antimycin A that have no effect on mitochondria inhibition ...

31P NMR study of improvement in oxidative phosphorylation by vitamins K3 and C in a patient with a defect in electron transport at complex III in skeletal muscle. [PDF]
The bioenergetic capacity of skeletal muscle in a 17-year-old patient with a severe defect in complex III of the electron transport chain has been examined by 31P NMR measurements of the molar ratio of phosphocreatine to inorganic phosphate (PCr/Pi). Resting ratios were 1.3-2.5, which can be compared with roughly 8.6 for a young, normal female control ...

New insight into the mechanism of mitochondrial cytochrome c function. [PDF]
We investigate functional role of the P76GTKMIFA83 fragment of the primary structure of cytochrome c. Based on the data obtained by the analysis of informational structure (ANIS), we propose a model of functioning of cytochrome c. According to this model,

Evaluation of functioning of mitochondrial electron transport chain with NADH and FAD autofluorescence [PDF]
We prove the feasibility of evaluation of mitochondrial electron transport chain function in isolated mitochondria of smooth muscle cells of rats from uterus using fluorescence of NADH and FAD coenzymes. We found the inversely directed changes in FAD and
