Hyperglycemia decreases mitochondrial function: The regulatory role of mitochon...
Palmeira, Carlos M.; Rolo, Anabela P.; Berthiaume, Jessica; Bjork, James A.; Wallace, Kendall B.Increased generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is implicated in "glucose toxicity" in diabetes. However, little is known about the action of glucose on the expression of transcription factors in hepatocytes, especially those involved in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) replication and transcription. Since mitochondrial functional capacity is dynamically regulated, we hypothesized that stressful conditions of hy...
Diabetes and mitochondrial function: Role of hyperglycemia and oxidative stress
Rolo, Anabela P.; Palmeira, Carlos M.Hyperglycemia resulting from uncontrolled glucose regulation is widely recognized as the causal link between diabetes and diabetic complications. Four major molecular mechanisms have been implicated in hyperglycemia-induced tissue damage: activation of protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms via de novo synthesis of the lipid second messenger diacylglycerol (DAG), increased hexosamine pathway flux, increased advanced g...
Decreased ANT content in Zucker fatty rats: Relevance for altered hepatic mitoc...
Teodoro, João; Rolo, Anabela P.; Oliveira, Paulo J.; Palmeira, Carlos M.Mitochondria from Zucker fatty (ZF) rats (a model for fatty liver disease) showed a delay in the repolarization after a phosphorylative cycle and a decrease on state 3 respiration, suggesting alterations at the phosphorylative system level. The ATPase activity showed no differences between control and ZF rats, implying alterations in other components of the phosphorylative system. A pronounced depletion in the ...
Mitochondrially-mediated toxicity of bile acids
Palmeira, Carlos M.; Rolo, Anabela P.In the healthy hepatocyte, uptake of bile acids across the basolateral membrane and export via the canalicular export pump, are tightly coupled. Impairment of bile formation or excretion results in cholestasis, characterized by accumulation of bile acids in systemic blood and within the hepatocyte. When the concentration of bile acids exceeds the binding capacity of the binding protein located in the cytosol of...
Vitamin E or coenzyme Q10 administration is not fully advantageous for heart mi...
Oliveira, Paulo J.; Seica, Raquel; Santos, Dario L.; Rolo, Anabela P.; Sardao, Vilma A.; Ferreira, Fernanda M. L.; Palmeira, Carlos M.; Santos, Maria S.The heart is one of the organs affected during the later stages of diabetes. Mitochondrial function has already been proposed to be affected during the course of diabetes. Nevertheless, little information is known concerning the impact of antioxidants in heart mitochondria of a milder model for diabetes, such as the Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rat, where mitochondrial function appears ameliorated. The objective of this ...
Role of mitochondrial dysfunction in combined bile acid-induced cytotoxicity: t...
Rolo, Anabela P.; Palmeira, Carlos M.; Holy, Jon M.; Wallace, Kendall B.The goal of this investigation was to determine whether chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA)-induced apoptosis is prevented by ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) or tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDC) and to characterize the involvement of mitochondria in the process. Cultured human HepG2 cells were treated in a dose- and time-dependent protocol in order to establish a sufficiently low exposure to CDCA that causes apoptosis but ...
Enhanced permeability transition explains the reduced calcium uptake in cardiac...
Oliveira, Paulo J.; Seiça, Raquel; Coxito, Pedro M.; Rolo, Anabela P.; Palmeira, Carlos M.; Santos, Maria S.; Moreno, António J. M.Cardiac dysfunction is associated with diabetes. It was previously shown that heart mitochondria from diabetic rats have a reduced calcium accumulation capacity. The objective of this work was to determine whether the reduction in calcium accumulation by cardiac mitochondria from diabetic rats is related to an enhanced susceptibility to induction of the mitochondrial permeability transition. Streptozotocin-indu...
