Modulation of myometrium mitochondrial membrane potential by calmodulin antagonists [PDF]
Influence of calmodulin antagonists on mitochondrial membrane potential was investigated using a flow cytometry method, confocal microscopy and fluorescent potential-sensitive probes TMRM and MTG.

Cytoprotective effects of melatonin against amitriptyline-induced toxicity in isolated rat hepatocytes [PDF]
Purpose: Amitriptyline, one of the commonly used tricyclic antidepressants, caused rare but severe hepatotoxicity in patients who received it continuously. Previous findings showed that the intermediate metabolites of amitriptyline produced by CYP450 are

Imaging mitochondrial membrane potentials
process remain to be elucidated. The elusiveness of this goal can be attributed, at least in part, to the absence of structural information about the mitochondrion itself at several levels of complexity. It is obvious, for example, that obtaining atomic structures of the respiratory chain protein complexes by x-ray or electron crystallography would ...

Mutations in PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1) cause a recessive form of Parkinson's disease (PD). PINK1 is associated with mitochondrial quality control and its partial knock-down induces mitochondrial dysfunction including decreased membrane ...

Calcineurin, Mitochondrial Membrane Potential, and Cardiomyocyte Apoptosis [PDF]
Mitochondria comprise ≈30% of the total intracellular volume within a mammalian cardiomyocyte.1 2 Not surprisingly, subtle alterations in mitochondrial function or membrane potential can have a dramatic influence on cardiomyocyte energy production and, ultimately, the health of an individual cell.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

The role of DJ-1 in enhancing mitochondrial quality control [PDF]
Thesis (M.A.)--Boston UniversityDJ-1 is a cytosolic sensor for oxidative damage which acts on the Mitochondria. It works to curb the negative effects of high membrane potential in mitochondria, but the mechanism of action is still uncertain.

Mutations in valosin-containing protein (VCP) decrease ADP/ATP translocation across the mitochondrial membrane and impair energy metabolism in human neurons [PDF]
Mutations in the gene encoding valosin-containing protein (VCP) lead to multisystem proteinopathies including frontotemporal dementia. We have previously shown that patient-derived VCP mutant fibroblasts exhibit lower mitochondrial membrane potential ...

Mitochondrial membrane potential and aging
SummaryThe mitochondrial membrane potential (or protonmotive force) is the central bioenergetic parameter that controls respiratory rate, ATP synthesis and the generation of reactive oxygen species, and is itself controlled by electron transport and proton leaks.
