Abstract
The fluctuations of the membrane potential during mitochondrial Ca2+ transport have been monitored with an electrode sensitive to tetraphenylphosphonium. The following conclusions have been reached. 1. The membrane becomes depolarized during the influx of Ca2+. When the bulk of the Ca2+ pulse has been taken up, it repolarizes, but not completely. 2. If all of the accumulated Ca2+ is released from mitochondria and cycling is inhibited, the membrane repolarizes completely. 3. The accumulation of Ca2+ alone does not induce mitochondrial damage. In the presence of inorganic phosphate, the uptake of Ca2+ may lead to complete and irreversible depolarization, depending on the amount of Ca2+ and phosphate accumulated. The irreversible damage observed in the presence of phosphate is prevented by Mg2+.

Abstract
Mitochondria from guinea-pig cerebral cortex incubated in the presence of Pi or acetate are unable to regulate the extramitochondrial free Ca2+ at a steady-state which is independent of the Ca2+ accumulated in the matrix. This is due to the superimposition on kinetically regulated Ca2+ cycling of a membrane-potential-dependent reversal of the Ca2+ uniporter. The latter efflux is a consequence of a low membrane potential, which correlates with a loss of adenine nucleotide loss from the matrix, enable the mitochondria to maintain a high membrane potential and allow the mitochondria to buffer the extramitochondrial free Ca2+ precisely when up to 200 nmol of Ca2+/mg of protein is accumulated in the matrix. The steady-state extramitochondrial free Ca2+ is maintained as low as 0.3 microM. The Na+-activated efflux pathway is functional in the presence of ATP and oligomycin and accounts precisely for the change in steady-state free Ca2+ induced by Na+ addition. The need to distinguish carefully between kinetic and membrane-potential-dependent efflux pathways is emphasized and the competence of brain mitochondria to regulate cytosolic free Ca2+ concentrations in vivo is discussed.

Abstract
Neuromuscular junctions of slow- and fast-twitch skeletal muscles from dystrophic (dy2J/dy2J) and control mice of the C57BL/6J strain were used to investigate the effect of muscular dystrophy on nerve-terminal regulation of their intracellular concentration of free calcium ions. The frequency of spontaneous miniature endplate potentials (MEPPs) was taken as an indicator of the intraterminal free calcium ion concentration. Dicoumarol, 2,4-dinitrophenol, ruthenium red, and the calcium ionophore A-23187 all potentiated the MEPP frequency in dystrophic muscles at concentrations which had negligible effects on normal muscles. Dystrophic muscle preparations were also more sensitive to an increased extracellular calcium concentration. Usually, these manipulations had more effect on the nerve terminals of dystrophic slow muscle than on those of dystrophic fast muscle. We conclude that muscular dystrophy alters the nerve terminal's ability to regulate the concentration of intracellular free calcium ions.

Abstract
The X-ray crystal structure of [Ru3 O2 (NH3)14] (S2 O3)3 . 4H2 O, the thiosulphate salt of Ruthenium Red, has been determined. The cation contains an essentially linear N-Ru-O-Ru-O-Ru-N backbone formed from three ruthenium coordination octahedra, giving an effectively cylindrical shape to the ion. Resonance Raman spectra are consistent with retention of this structure in solution.

Abstract
1. Ion-sensitive micro-electrodes were used to measure changes in intracellular pH (pHi) and internal chloride which resulted from the pressure injection of calcium chloride into identified Helix aspersa neurones. The internal chloride measurement allowed the quantity of calcium chloride injected to be estimated. 2. Application of the metabolic inhibitor carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazone (CCmP) to a calcium-loaded cell caused an increase in the membrane potential comparable to the effect of injecting calcium itself. The effect was not observed in normal cells. 3. When injected in the presence of CCmp, calcium caused a much larger and longer-lasting effect on the membrane potential than that observed in untreated cells. 4. The injection of ruthenium red can increase and/or prolong the hyperpolarization caused by a given quantity of injected calcium. The pHi changes following calcium injection were biphasic and slower than normal. 5. In seven experiments, both hydrogen chloride and calcium chloride were injected into the same cell. The relative changes in pHi corresponded to the production of one hydrogen ion for each calcium ion injected. 6. The relationship between the quantity of calcium injected and the size of the induced hyperpolarization suggested that at least three calcium ions acting cooperatively are required to activate a potassium 'channel'. 7. Injection of barium chloride hyperpolarized the membrane after a delay of about 1 min. After several injections of barium the cell lost this response while retaining its normal response to calcium injection. Injection of barium also caused a slowly developing (biphasic) fall in pHi. 8. We conclude that injected calcium is normally rapidly taken up by mitochondria in exchange for hydrogen ions. If this uptake process is blocked by ruthenium red or CCmP, the calcium is taken up by a second, slower, process which also releases hydrogen ions. When pre-loaded, but not otherwise, the mitochondria will release calcium ions on treatment with CCmP. Injection of barium does not directly affect the membrane conductance, but causes the release of calcium from intracellular binding sites.

Abstract
The effects of fatty acids and monovalent cations on the Ca2+ efflux from isolated liver and kidney mitochondria were investigated by means of electrode techniques. It was shown that unsaturated fatty acids and saturated fatty acids of medium chain length (C12 and C14) induced a Ca2+ efflux from mitochondria which was not inhibited by ruthenium red, but was specifically inhibited by Na+ and Li+. The Ca2+-releasing activity of unsaturated fatty acids did not correlate with their uncoupling activity. In kidney mitochondria a spontaneous, temperature-dependent Ca2+ efflux was observed which was inhibited either by albumin or by Na+. It is suggested that the net Ca2+ accumulation by mitochondria depends on the operation of independent pump and leak pathways. The pump is driven by the membrane potential and can be inhibited by ruthenium red, the leak depends on the presence of unsaturated fatty acids and is inhibited by Na+ and Li+. It is suggested that the unsaturated fatty acids produced by mitochondrial phospholipase A2 can be essential in the regulation of the Ca2+ retention in and the Ca2+ release from the mitochondria.

Abstract
To test the hypothesis that ruthenium red binding of intramitochondrial granules might reflect an altered or pathological state of membranes associated with degeneration, embryos were treated with 6-AN to induce cell death in cartilaginous skeletons of chick embryos. Cervical cartilage from normal, 6-AN-treated and nicotinamide-alleviated 6-AN embryos was examined ultrastructurally for presence of IM RR-positive granules. Mitochondria of normal cervical chondroblasts which undergo normal phenotypic expression acquire RR-positive granules, although few mature cells are observed in young embryos. Necrotic chondroblasts, chondroblasts in various stages of degeneration, and proliferating chondrogenic cells of 6-AN-treated embryos all demonstrated induced RR-positive IM granules. Foci of degenerating chondroblasts, with mitochondria demonstrating RR granules, were observed infrequently in teratogen-alleviated tissue. The cytological features induced by 6-AN confirm its lethal effect and the degenerative effect on membranes presumably "unmasks" mitochondrial Ca-affinity sites which then become RR-positive. Cytochemical observations correspond with the biochemical and structural changes induced by 6-AN and confirm the hypothesis that RR-positive sites are the result of pathological changes.

Abstract
1. Aerobic incubation of isolated rat liver cells--after dilution from the anaerobic stock suspension--transiently brings about a state, during which a reversible calcium uptake can be observed on addition of a respiratory substrate. Uptake varies greatly and can reach more than 50 nmol/mg protein, but declines to zero on prolonged preincubation, especially at higher temperature. Repeated additions of succinate or 3-hydroxybutyrate evoke new calcium transients. If ATP is simultaneously added, if greatly potentiates succinate-initiated reversible uptake. 2. If rotenone is present during the preincubation phase, calcium transients are strongly enhanced. Uptake is blocked by uncouplers and respiratory inhibitors, indicating the involvement of mitochondria. 3. Calcium uptake is not accompanied by increased oxygen consumption. The actual respiration cannot account sufficiently for the energy need of calcium uptake. Participation of cytoplasmic ATP is likely, as inhibitors of adenine nucleotide translocase affect uptake. 4. Lanthanum enhances calcium uptake in contrast to its action on mitochondria. 5. Pulse-labeling experiments indicate that the calcium taken up is removed from a rapidly exchangeable calcium pool by withdrawal into the mitochondria as a deep compartment. 6. Calcium uptake is accelerated either by increasing the phosphate level or by high temperature. It is prolonged by low temperature, high pH or high ATP concentration. Calcium release accelerates with increasing temperature, decreasing pH and a further rise in phosphate concentration. 7. The dependency on phosphate and temperature reveals a delicately poised equilibrium of uptake and release. At ambient temperature, phosphate increases uptake up to a concentration of 0.5 mM. Higher concentrations accelerate both uptake and release. At lower temperature, the accelerating effect on uptake predominates. A temperature shift during incubation results in adaptation of the calcium equilibrium to the new temperature, i.e. release of calcium at high temperature, uptake at low temperature. 8. Oxidizing metabolites inhibit succinate-stimulated calcium uptake and promote release of previously accumulated calcium. An increased sensitivity to phosphate is established. 9. With respect to isolated mitochondria, isolated liver cells appear to be a more realistic model for studying the physiological mechanism of mitochondrial calcium release, since compartmental constraints and regulations are maintained.

Abstract
Commercial ruthenium red has been tested for its purity by spectrophotometry. Impurities detected by this method could be abolished by nitric acid-precipitation of ruthenium brown. This substance has no effect on cell surface staining and converts almost completely to ruthenium red under the conditions used in electron microscopy. It was found, by photometric analysis, that in the ruthenium red-osmium tetroxide-cacodylate combination, generally used for cell surface staining, chemical reactions between ruthenium red and osmium tetroxide occur. As aerial oxidation of hexammineruthenium2+ leads to a product with some surface staining capability, it is suggested that an oxidized product of ruthenium red is responsible for binding to cellular components, and that a reduced product of osmium tetroxide gives an additional contrast enhancement. In ruthenium red-osmium dioxide combinations ruthenium red seems to bind to cell surfaces without any molecular alteration, and contrast is gained by the model proposed by Blanquet (1976b). The latter method could open a way for investigating the binding of ruthenium red to certain natural compounds involved in calcium transport, as postulated by a number of authors. Both ruthenium-osmium combinations differ in their cell surface staining ability. The ruthenium red-osmium dioxide combination tends to form distinct subunits, whereas the osmium tetroxide variety stains homogeneously. In combination with osmium dioxide, the surface staining is affected by EDTA, and, in contrast to osmium tetroxide, a successive application of ruthenium red and osmium dioxide as possible.

Abstract
The effects on spontaneous and ionophore-induced transmitter release of the inorganic dye, ruthenium red (RuR), a known inhibitor of calcium binding sites, were observed at the frog sartorius neuromuscular junction using intracellular recording techniques. Both crude and purified RuR, at concentrations of 1 and 5 micron depressed or blocked spontaneous release of acetylcholine (ACh) and reduced postsynaptic sensitivity to ACh, the crude dye being more potent than the pure. Pretreatment of muscles with RuR prevented the catastrophic reaction of junctions to 100 micron X537A ionophore. Increased levels of Ca2+ restored spontaneous transmitter release to control levels after depression or blockade by RuR. It was concluded that RuR blocks a critical membrane-bound binding site for calcium which is necessary for quantal release of transmitter.

Abstract
Inner membrane vesicles have been prepared by cholate treatment of rat liver mitoplasts. The vesicles can actively accumulate Ca2+ in the absence or presence of inorganic phosphate. The uptake is inhibited by ruthenium red and uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation. Like in intact mitochondria the driving force for the uptake reaction seems to be the negative inside membrane potential generated during the oxidation of substrates. The level of antimycin-A-sensitive reduction of ferricyanide by succinate indicates that the cholate inner membrane vesicles are about 70% right side out. Using cytochrome-c-extracted inner membrane vesicles it can be shown that only those which have the same right-side-out polarity as intact mitochondria can actively accumulate Ca2+.

Abstract
45Ca2+-accumulation by a mitochondrial fraction from isolated rat pancreatic islets was stronly stimulated by ATP. The ATP-dependent uptake was inhibited by phosphoenolpyruvate in a dose-dependent manner over a wide variety of conditions. Inhibition by phosphoenolpyruvate was non-completitive with respect to calcium, competitive with respect to magnesium, and antagonised by high Mg-ATP2- concentrations; fructose 1,6-diphosphate also decreased 45Ca2+-uptake. Other glucose metabolites were either less effective or ineffective in diminishing mitochondrial 45Ca2+-accumulation. The ATP-dependent uptake was also inhibited by xanthine derivatives (caffeine and 3-isobutyl-1-methylaxanthine) which potentiate the effects of glucose on insulin secretion. Cyclic AMP had no effect. It is thought that the rate of insulin secretion is a function of the cytosolic calcium concentration in the B-cell. These data show that phosphoenolpyruvate, fructose 1,6-diphosphate and methylxanthines might influence exocytosis by direct effects on mitochondrial calcium accumulation, and thus the intracellular distribution of calcium.

Abstract
1. A depolarisation of the membrane of rat liver mitochondria, as measured with the safranine method, is seen during Ca2+ uptake. The depolarisation is followed by a slow repolarisation, the rate of which can be increased by the addition of EGTA or phosphate. 2. Plots relating the initial rate of calcium ion (Ca2+) uptake and the decrease in membrane potential (delta psi) to the Ca2+ concentration show a half-maximal change at less than 10 micron Ca2+ and a saturation above 20 micron Ca2+. 3. Plots relating the initial rate of Ca2+ uptake to delta psi are linear. 4. Addition of Ca2+ chelators, nitriloacetate or EGTA, to deenergized mitochondria equilibrated with Ca2+ causes a polarisation of the mitochondrial membrane due to a diffusion potential created by electrogenic Ca2+ efflux. 5. If the extent of the response induced by different nitriloacetate concentrations is plotted against the expected membrane potential a linear plot is obtained up to 70 mV with a slope corresponding to two-times the extent of the response induced by valinomycin in the presence of different potassium ion gradients. This suggests that the Ca2+ ion is transferred across the membrane with one net positive charge in present conditions.

Abstract
Rat peritoneal mast cells were used as a model system to study the effect, on exocytosis, of three agents known to interact with microfilaments. Mast cell secretion was evaluated by fluorimetric assay of histamine and by ruthenium red staining, the latter method allowing a direct visualization and quantitation of exocytosis at the light microscopic level. Phalloidin, in concentrations up to 300 microgram/ml, was without effect on either spontaneous or 48/80-evoked secretion, even after cells were exposed to the drug for 28 h. The failure of even high doses of phalloidin to influence cellular morphology and exocytosis in the mast cell may reflect the absence of a specific membrane receptor. Cytochalasin B was likewise without effect on the response to 48/80 in normally respiring cells; but inhibited this response in the presence of Antimycin A. This inhibitory effect probably reflects the ability of cytochalasin B to block glucose transport. In normally respiring cells, neither phalloidin nor cytochalasin B affected the active expulsion of granules from exocytotic pits. Cytochalasin A, without concomitant treatment with Antimycin A, completely inhibited secretion in response to both 48/80 and A23187, and did so in low concentration. Whether this striking inhibitory effect results from an interaction with microfilaments is uncertain for the inhibition could be mimicked by nonpenetrating thiol-oxidizing agents and prevented by impermeant thiol-protecting agents suggesting that cytochalasin A may inhibit histamine release by thiol-oxidation at the cell surface. Possible surface sulfhydryls are important for membrane rearrangements accompanying exocytosis.

Abstract
The effects of the calcium antagonists ruthenium red and D-600 and the cation ionophore A23187 on steroidogenesis were investigated. Steroidogenesis triggered by corticotrophin and cyclic AMP was inhibited by each of the agents. Incubation of Y-1 cells with an excess of ethyleneglycol-bis-(beta-amino-ethylether)-N,N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) abolished the steroidogenic response to corticotrophin while the response to cyclic AMP was unaffected. The ability of ruthenium red and D-600 (1 . 10(-5) M), and A23187 (6 . 10(-6 M) to inhibit a response which does not require the presence of extracellular calcium (cyclic AMP induced steroidogenesis) suggests that they are altering intracellular calcium. Neither of the calcium antagonists nor the cation ionophore inhibited the steroidogenic response to exogenous pregnenolone, thereby suggesting that the cells were still viable. Only when A23187 was used in the presence of a 15-fold increase in extracellular calcium (4.8 mM) was the response to pregnenolone diminished. The data are interpreted as a further indication that, in intact cells, intracellular calcium plays a role in the steroidogenic pathway.

Abstract
Addition of ruthenium red to mitochondria isolated from brain, adrenal cortex, parotid gland and skeletal muscle inhibits further uptake of Ca2+ by these mitochondria but induces little or no net Ca2+ efflux; the further addition of Na+, however, induces rapid efflux of Ca2+. The velocity of the Na+-induced efflux of Ca2+ from these mitochondria exhibits a sigmoidal dependence on the [Na+]. Addition of Na+ to mitochondria exhibiting the most active Na+-dependent efflux of Ca2+ (brain and adrenal cortex) also releases Ca2+ in the absence of ruthenium red and, under these conditions, the mitochondria become uncoupled. It is concluded that the efflux of Ca2+ from these mitochondria occurs via a Na+-dependent pathway, possibly a Na+-Ca2+ antiporter, that is distinct from the ruthenium-red-sensitive carrier that catalyses energy-linked Ca2+-influx. The possible role of the Na+-dependent efflux process in the distribution of Ca2+ between the mitochondria and the cytosol is discussed. In contrast, mitochondria from liver, kidney, lung, uterus muscle and ileum muscle exhibit no Na+-dependent efflux of Ca2+.

Abstract
1. In resting cells of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, the uptake of calcium is stimulated by the addition of 90 mM glucose in the presence as in the absence of respiration and inhibited by Antimycin A in the absence of exogenous carbon source. This uptake therefore requires fermentative or respiratory metabolic energy. 2. The calcium uptake by S. pombe exhibits saturation kinetics and high affinity for calcium. At external pH 4.5, the apparent Km is 45 muM ca2+ 400 muM of other divalent cations exert competitive inhibitions of calcium uptake in the following order of affinities: Sr2+ greater than Mn2+ greater than Co2+ greater than Mg2+. Inhibition by KCl is also observed but is of non-competitive type and requires high concentrations of the order of 40 mM. 3. At 30 degrees C, the uptake rate of calcium is about 10-times higher at pH 8925 than at pH 4.0. An extrusion of 45Ca2+, the rate of which is estimated to be lower than one-fifth of the uptake, is observed in the presence of glucose when the external pH is acid. 4. At external pH 4.5, low concentrations of lanthanum chloride, ruthenium red and hexamine cobaltichloride are inhibitory for the uptake of calcium by the yeast cells. 5. In presence of Antimycin A, the uncouplers: NaN3, dinitrophenol, and concentrations of crobonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone higher than 80 muM inhibit the calcium uptake by glycolysing cells. In the presence of glucose, the K+ ionophore Dio-9 dnhances severalfold the uptake of calcium even at 2 degrees C. 6. It is concluded that S. pombe possess an active transport system for low concentrations of calcium. This transport seems to be dependent on an electric potential (negative inside) across the cellular membrane.

Abstract
The kinetic plot (initial rate of Ca2+ transport versus concentration) of mitochondrial Ca2+ transport is hyperbolic in a sucrose medium. The plot becomes sigmoidal in the presence of competitive inhibitors of Ca2+ binding to low affinity sites of the membrane surface such as Mg2+ and K+. The plot also becomes sigmoidal in the presence of Ba2+. Ba2+ is a competitive inhibitor of both Ca2+ transport and Ca2+ binding to the low affinity sites. The 5i for the inhibition of Ca2+ transport by Ba2+ increases in the presence of K+ and Mg2+, which suggests a competition for the low affinity sites between the cations. The plot is still hyperbolic in the presence of La3+, which inhibits Ca2+ transport competitively. Ruthenium red which is a pure non-competitive inhibitor of mitochondrial Ca2+ transport, does not affect the shape of the kinetic plot. These results indicate that the surface potential, which depends on the ions bound to the low affinity sites, determines whether the kinetics of Ca2+ uptake in mitochondria is sigmoidal or hyperbolic.
