Ischemic defects in the electron transport chain increase the production of reactive oxygen species from isolated rat heart mitochondria
Abstract
Cardiac ischemia decreases complex III activity, cytochrome c content, and respiration through cytochrome oxidase in subsarcolemmal mitochondria (SSM) and interfibrillar mitochondria (IFM). The reversible blockade of electron transport with amobarbital during ischemia protects mitochondrial respiration and decreases myocardial injury during reperfusion. These findings support that mitochondrial damage occurs during ischemia and contributes to myocardial injury during reperfusion. The current study addressed whether ischemic damage to the electron transport chain (ETC) increased the net production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) from mitochondria. SSM and IFM were isolated from 6-mo-old Fisher 344 rat hearts following 25 min global ischemia or following 40 min of perfusion alone as controls. H 2 O 2 release from SSM and IFM was measured using the amplex red assay. With glutamate as a complex I substrate, the net production of H 2 O 2 was increased by 178 ± 14% and 179 ± 17% in SSM and IFM ( n = 9), respectively, following ischemia compared with controls ( n = 8). With succinate as substrate in the presence of rotenone, H 2 O 2 increased by 272 ± 22% and 171 ± 21% in SSM and IFM, respectively, after ischemia. Inhibitors of electron transport were used to assess maximal ROS production. Inhibition of complex I with rotenone increased H 2 O 2 production by 179 ± 24% and 155 ± 14% in SSM and IFM, respectively, following ischemia. Ischemia also increased the antimycin A-stimulated production of H 2 O 2 from complex III. Thus ischemic damage to the ETC increased both the capacity and the net production of H 2 O 2 from complex I and complex III and sets the stage for an increase in ROS production during reperfusion as a mechanism of cardiac injury.

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.
