Abstract

The possibility that ascorbateand reduced glutathioneinduced swelling and lysis of mitochondria (1,2) were dependent on some metal, such as iron, which was contaminating reagents, or even the nonheme iron in mitochondria led us to investigate the action of added iron. The ferrous ion was of special interest as a result of its role in several reactions catalyzed by ascorbate (3, 4). The promotion of swelling by many ions, including iron, has been reported by several workers (5-7), but the characteristic phenomena to be described here were apparently obscured by various conditions. Unlike swelling induced by many other substances uch as phosphate and thyroxine, (8, 9), swelling with ascorbate, reduced glutathione, or Fe++ is not dependent on endogenous or added substrates. There is a close correlation between lipid peroxide formation and swelling or lysis induced by Fe*, J ‘ust as has been observed with ascorbate and oxidized plus reduced glutathione (1). Whether or not such effects contribute to physiological control or pathological phenomena remains to be seen, but these studies with isolated mitochondria provide additional information about structure and permeability control in the mitochondrial membranes.

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.
