Mitochondria and reactive oxygen species
Open accessAbstract
Mitochondria are a quantitatively relevant source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the majority of cell types. Here we review the sources and metabolism of ROS in this organelle, including the conditions that regulate the production of these species, such as mild uncoupling, oxygen tension, respiratory inhibition, Ca2+ and K+ transport, and mitochondrial content and morphology. We discuss substrate-, tissue-, and organism-specific characteristics of mitochondrial oxidant generation. Several aspects of the physiological and pathological roles of mitochondrial ROS production are also addressed.

Claims other papers make about this one
Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“In the presence of these inhibitors, the highly reduced state of components of the electron transport system causes a rise in the production of superoxide at these sites [47,48], which would be a challenge to cell survival.”
From Proliferating Astrocytes in Primary Culture Do Not Depend upon Mitochondrial Respiratory Complex I Activity or Oxidative Phosphorylation (2023) · cites this paper as [48]
In the citing paper
“Thus, mitochondrial deficiencies that decrease matrix NADH or mitochondrial membrane potential will theoretically decrease mitochondrial NADPH regeneration, contributing to oxidative stress (226).”
From Redox regulation of mitochondrial function (2012) · cites this paper as [226]

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
