New Control of Mitochondrial Membrane Potential and ROS Formation A Hypothesis

Abstract: A new control of mitochondrial membrane potential delta(psi)m and formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is presented, based on allosteric ATP-inhibition of cytochrome c oxidase at high intramitochondrial ATP/ADP ratios. Since the rate of ATP synthesis by the ATP synthase is already maximal at low membrane potentials (100-120 mV), the ATP/ADP ratio will also be maximal at this delta(psi)m (at constant rate of ATP consumption). Therefore the control of respiration by the ATP/ADP-ratio keeps delta(psi)m low.… Show more

“…Thus, ROS generation in mitochondria can be measured only when this potential decreases below Ϫ120 mV, which occurs under stressinduced increases of calcium ions or decreases of the ATP͞ADP ratio (26). Thus, this study also suggests that an operating respiratory chain is not involved in ROS generation (26). Further, the relevance of the mitochondrial respiratory chain as oxygen sensor was questioned in experiments with various cell lines defective in components of the electron-transport chain.…”

“…8 -10 The release of the main mitochondrial proapoptotic protein, cytochrome c, is under the regulation of ROS. 11,12 In addition to the generation of ROS, NO is also generated in anticancer drug-and ␥-ray-treated cancer cells and reaction of ROS with NO is allowed in a favorable circumstance. 13,14 The reactant ONOO Ϫ vigorously damages cells by impairment of proteins and DNA.…”

“…In our experiments, we failed to reproduce the initial data from Lee, where allosteric inhibition of CytOx was induced by Protein kinase A and switched off by Phosphatase PP1 9, 10. Various factors, for example the presence of phosphatases/phosphatase inhibitors or protein kinases/protein kinase inhibitors were used in the polarographic measurements to initiate or modify allosteric inhibition of CytOx, which however, yielded no clear results.…”

“…However, low Ψm values are found in perfused rat hearts (100–140 mV) 47, 48, cultured fibroblasts (105 mV) and neuroblastoma cells (81 mV) 49. Kadenbach's theory explained this discrepancy in a new hypothesis for the regulation of mitochondrial energy metabolism in living cells 9, 10, 50, 51, 52, 53. This hypothesis explains the increase of Ψm and the formation of ROS in mitochondria under stress conditions and excessive work 54.…”
