Abstract
Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a rising threat to global health because the number of essential antibiotics used for treating MDR infections is increasingly compromised. In this work we report a group of new amphiphilic peptides (AMPs) derived from the well-studied G3 (G(IIKK)3I-NH2) to fight infections from Gram-positive bacteria including susceptible Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), focusing on membrane interactions. Time-dependent killing experiments revealed that substitutions of II by WW (GWK), II by FF (GFK) and KK by RR (GIR) resulted in improved bactericidal efficiencies compared to G3 (GIK) on both S. aureus and MRSA, with the order of GWK > GIR > GFK > GIK. Electronic microscopy imaging revealed structural disruptions of AMP binding to bacterial cell walls. Fluorescence assays including AMP binding to anionic lipoteichoic acids (LTA) in cell-free and cell systems indicated concentration and time-dependent membrane destabilization associated with bacterial killing. Furthermore, AMP's binding to anionic plasma membrane via similar fluorescence assays revealed a different extent of membrane depolarization and leakage. These observations were supported by the penetration of AMPs into the LTA barrier and the subsequent structural compromise to the cytoplasmic membrane as revealed from SANS (small angle neutron scattering). Both experiments and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations revealed that GWK and GIR could make the membrane more rigid but less effective in diffusive efficiency than GIK and GFK through forming intramembrane peptide nanoaggregates associated with hydrophobic mismatch and formation of fluidic and rigid patches. The reported peptide-aggregate-induced phase-separation emerged as a crucial factor in accelerated membrane disintegration and fast bacterial killing. This work has demonstrated the importance of membrane interactions to the development of more effective AMPs and the relevance of the approaches as reported in assisting this area of research.

Abstract
Cardiolipin, the mitochondria marker lipid, is crucially involved in stabilizing the inner mitochondrial membrane and is vital for the activity of mitochondrial proteins and protein complexes. Directly targeting cardiolipin by a chemical-biology approach and thereby altering the cellular concentration of "available" cardiolipin eventually allows to systematically study the dependence of cellular processes on cardiolipin availability. In the present study, physics-based coarse-grained free energy calculations allowed us to identify the physical and chemical properties indicative of cardiolipin selectivity and to apply these to screen a compound database for putative cardiolipin-binders. The membrane binding properties of the 22 most promising molecules identified in the in silico approach were screened in vitro, using model membrane systems finally resulting in the identification of a single molecule, CLiB (CardioLipin-Binder). CLiB clearly affects respiration of cardiolipin-containing intact bacterial cells as well as of isolated mitochondria. Thus, the structure and function of mitochondrial membranes and membrane proteins might be (indirectly) targeted and controlled by CLiB for basic research and, potentially, also for therapeutic purposes.

Abstract
Nonyl acridine orange (NAO) is a lipophilic and positively charged molecule widely used as a mitochondrial fluorescent probe. NAO is cytotoxic at micromolar concentration and might be potentially used as a mitochondria-targeted drug for cancer therapy. However, the use of NAO under in vivo conditions would be compromised by the unspecific interactions with off-target cells and negatively charged proteins present in the bloodstream. To tackle this limitation, we have synthesized NAO analogues carrying an imidazole group for their specific binding to nitrilotriacetic (NTA) functionalized gold nanorods (AuNRs). We demonstrate that AuNRs provide 104 binding sites and a controlled delivery under acidic conditions. Upon incubation with mouse embryonic fibroblasts, the endosomal acidic environment releases the NAO analogues from AuNRs, as visualized through the staining of the mitochondrial network. The addition of the monoclonal antibody Cetuximab to the conjugates enhanced their uptake within lung cancer cells and the conjugates were cytotoxic at subnanomolar concentrations (c50 ≈ 0.06 nM). Moreover, the specific interactions of Cetuximab with the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) provided a specific targeting of EGFR-expressing lung cancer cells. After intravenous administration in patient-derived xenografts (PDX) mouse models, the conjugates reduced the progression of EGFR-positive tumors. Overall, the NAO-AuNRs provide a promising strategy to realize membrane mitochondria-targeted conjugates for lung cancer therapy.

Abstract
Dynamins are targeted to specific cellular membranes that they remodel via membrane fusion or fission. The molecular basis of conferring specificity to dynamins for their target membrane selection is not known. Here, we report a mechanism of nuclear membrane recruitment of Drp6, a dynamin member in Tetrahymena thermophila. Recruitment of Drp6 depends on a domain that binds to cardiolipin (CL)-rich bilayers. Consistent with this, nuclear localization of Drp6 was inhibited either by depleting cellular CL or by substituting a single amino acid residue that abolished Drp6 interactions with CL. Inhibition of CL synthesis, or perturbation in Drp6 recruitment to nuclear membrane, caused defects in the formation of new macronuclei post-conjugation. Taken together, our results elucidate a molecular basis of target membrane selection by a nuclear dynamin and establish the importance of a defined membrane-binding domain and its target lipid in facilitating nuclear expansion.

Abstract
Misfolding and aggregate formation by the tau protein has been closely related with neurotoxicity in a large group of human neurodegenerative disorders, which includes Alzheimer's disease. Here, we investigate the membrane-active properties of tau oligomers on mitochondrial membranes, using minimalist in vitro model systems. Thus, exposure of isolated mitochondria to oligomeric tau evoked a disruption of mitochondrial membrane integrity, as evidenced by a combination of organelle swelling, efflux of cytochrome c and loss of the mitochondrial membrane potential. Tau-induced mitochondrial dysfunction occurred independently of the mitochondrial permeability transition (mPT) pore complex. Notably, mitochondria were rescued by pre-incubation with 10-N-nonyl acridine orange (NAO), a molecule that specifically binds cardiolipin (CL), the signature phospholipid of mitochondrial membranes. Additionally, NAO prevented direct binding of tau oligomers to isolated mitochondria. At the same time, tau proteins exhibited high affinity to CL-enriched membranes, whilst permeabilisation of lipid vesicles also strongly correlated with CL content. Intriguingly, using single-channel electrophysiology, we could demonstrate the formation of non-selective ion-conducting tau nanopores exhibiting multilevel conductances in mito-mimetic bilayers. Taken together, the data presented here advances a scenario in which toxic cytosolic entities of tau protein would target mitochondrial organelles by associating with their CL-rich membrane domains, leading to membrane poration and compromised mitochondrial structural integrity.

Abstract
Aggregation of the amyloid-forming α-synuclein (αS) protein is closely associated with the etiology of Parkinson's disease (PD), the most common motor neurodegenerative disorder. Many studies have shown that soluble aggregation intermediates of αS, termed oligomers, permeabilize a variety of phospholipid membranes; thus, membrane disruption may represent a key pathogenic mechanism of αS toxicity. Given the centrality of mitochondrial dysfunction in PD, we therefore probed the formation of ion-permeable pores by αS oligomers in planar lipid bilayers reflecting the complex phospholipid composition of mitochondrial membranes. Using single-channel electrophysiology, we recorded distinct multilevel conductances (100-400 pS) with stepwise current transitions, typical of protein-bound nanopores, in mitochondrial-like membranes. Crucially, we observed that the presence of cardiolipin (CL), the signature phospholipid of mitochondrial membranes, enhanced αS-lipid interaction and the membrane pore-forming activity of αS oligomers. Further, preincubation of isolated mitochondria with a CL-specific dye protected against αS oligomer-induced mitochondrial swelling and release of cytochrome c. Hence, we favor a scenario in which αS oligomers directly porate a local lipid environment rich in CL, for instance outer mitochondrial contact sites or the inner mitochondrial membrane, to induce mitochondrial dysfunction. Pharmacological modulation of αS pore complex formation might thus preserve mitochondrial membrane integrity and alleviate mitochondrial dysfunction in PD.

Abstract
A series of benzothiazolium-based hemicyanines (3a-3f) have been synthesized. Evaluation of their photophysical properties shows that they exhibit improved photophysical characteristics. In comparison with the available commercial MitoTrackers, the new probes revealed an enhanced Stokes shift (Δλ ∼ 80 nm) and minimized aggregation for increased sensitivity. The synthesized probes are found to exhibit excellent selectivity for mitochondrial staining in an oligodendrocyte cell line. Probes show almost no fluorescence in aqueous environments, while the fluorescence is increased by ∼10-fold in organic solvents, making it possible for mitochondrial imaging without the need for post-staining washing. Since the absorption peaks of probes are close to the laser wavelengths of 561 and 640 nm on a commercial confocal microscope, e.g.3a exhibits λabs ∼ 620 nm and λem ∼ 702 nm, they could be useful probes for mitochondrial tracking in live cells.

Abstract
Cancer cell mitochondria represent an attractive target for oncological treatment as they have unique hallmarks that differ from their healthy counterparts, as the presence of a stronger membrane potential that can be exploited to specifically accumulate cytotoxic cationic molecules. Here, we explore the selective cytotoxic effect of 10-N-nonyl acridine orange (NAO) on human lung carcinoma H520 cells and compare them with healthy human lung primary fibroblasts. NAO is a lipophilic and positively charged molecule that promotes mitochondrial membrane adhesion that eventually leads to apoptosis when incubated at high micromolar concentration. We found an enhanced cytotoxicity of NAO in H520 cancer cells. By means Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) we also confirmed the formation of H-dimeric aggregates originating from opposing adjacent membranes that interfere with the mitochondrial membrane structure. Based on our results, we suggest the mitochondrial membrane as a potential target in cancer therapy to mechanically control the cell proliferation of cancer cells.

Abstract
Background The fluorescent dye 10-N-nonyl acridine orange (NAO) is widely used as a mitochondrial marker. NAO was reported to have cytotoxic effects in cultured eukaryotic cells when incubated at high concentrations. Although the biochemical response of NAO-induced toxicity has been well identified, the underlying molecular mechanism has not yet been explored in detail. Methods We use optical techniques, including fluorescence confocal microscopy and lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) both in model membranes built up as giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) and cultured cells. These experiments are complemented with computational studies to unravel the molecular mechanism that makes NAO cytotoxic. Results We have obtained direct evidence that NAO promotes strong membrane adhesion of negatively charged vesicles. The attractive forces are derived from van der Waals interactions between anti-parallel H-dimers of NAO molecules from opposing bilayers. Semi-empirical calculations have confirmed the supramolecular scenario by which anti-parallel NAO molecules form a zipper of bonds at the contact region. The membrane remodeling effect of NAO, as well as the formation of H-dimers, was also confirmed in cultured fibroblasts, as shown by the ultrastructure alteration of the mitochondrial cristae. Conclusions We conclude that membrane adhesion induced by NAO stacking accounts for the supramolecular basis of its cytotoxicity. General significance Mitochondria are a potential target for cancer and gene therapies. The alteration of the mitochondrial structure by membrane remodeling agents able to form supramolecular assemblies via adhesion properties could be envisaged as a new therapeutic strategy. NAO promotes interbilayer adhesion of negatively charged lipid vesicles. Membrane adhesion derives from the self-assembly of NAO into antiparallel H-dimers. The adhesion strength promoted by antiparallel H-aggregates is 10−6 J/m2. The formation of NAO H-aggregates produces cell death in fibroblasts. The molecular mechanism of NAO cytotoxicity relies on the adhesion ability of H-dimers.

Abstract
Mitochondria are most important organelles in the survival of eukaryotic aerobic cells because they are the primary producers of ATP, regulators of ion homeostasis or redox state, and producers of free radicals. The key role of mitochondria in the generation of primordial ATP for the survival and proliferation of eukaryotic cells has been proven by extensive biochemical studies. In this context, it is crucial to understand the complexity of the mitochondrial compartment and its functionality and to develop experimental tools allowing the assessment of its nature and its function and metabolism. This review covers the role of the mitochondria in the cell, focusing on its structure, the mechanism of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, the maintenance of the transmembrane potential and the production of reactive oxygen species. The main probes used for mitochondrial compartment monitoring are described. In addition, various applications using mitochondrial-specific probes are detailed to illustrate the potential of flow and image cytometry in the study of the mitochondrial compartment. This review contains a panel of tools to explore mitochondria and to help researchers design experiments, determine the approach to be employed, and interpret their results.

Abstract
The release of cytochrome c from the mitochondria to the cytosol is a critical step for downstream caspase-mediated apoptotic signal transduction in ischemia-reperfusion (I/R)-induced myocardial tissue injury. 10-N-nonyl acridine orange (NAO), a cardiolipin-specific dye, has been shown to inhibit Bid-mediated cytochrome c release from isolated mitochondria in vitro; however, the possible protective effects of NAO and the mechanisms underlying the protection from myocardial I/R-induced tissue injury in a rat model are unknown. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to a 30-min coronary arterial occlusion followed by reperfusion. All rats received either vehicle or NAO (100 microg/kg iv) 10 min before the occlusion. The infarct size in the heart at 24 h after reperfusion was significantly reduced in NAO-treated rats compared with vehicle-treated rats. NAO treatment significantly reduced the cytosolic cytochrome c contents and caspase-9 activity in the ischemic region but did not affect caspase-8 activity. Furthermore, NAO treatment markedly suppressed the translocation of truncated Bid, a proapoptotic Bcl-2 family member, to the mitochondrial fraction. NAO also suppressed the mitochondrial swelling and oxygen uptake stimulated by calcium overload. The results suggest that NAO possesses protective effects against myocardial I/R injury, which may be due to the suppression of cytochrome c release through blockade of truncated Bid translocation to mitochondria and inhibition of the opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pores.

Abstract
10-N-Nonyl acridine orange (NAO) is used as a mitochondrial probe because of its high affinity for cardiolipin (CL). Targeting of NAO may also depend on mitochondrial membrane potential. As the nonyl group has been considered essential for targeting, a systematic study of alkyl chain length was undertaken; three analogues (10-methyl-, 10-hexyl-, and 10-hexadecyl-acridine orange) were synthesized and their properties studied in phospholipid monolayers and breast cancer cells. The shortest and longest alkyl chains reduced targeting, whereas the hexyl group was superior to the nonyl group, allowing very clear and specific targeting to mitochondria at concentrations of 20-100 nM, where no evidence of toxicity was apparent. Additional studies in wild-type and cardiolipin-deficient yeast cells suggested that cellular binding was not absolutely dependent upon cardiolipin.

Abstract
Cardiolipin (CL) plays an essential role as a marker for cell apoptosis. Quantitative detection of phospholipids (PLs) by UV absorbance is problematic due to the presence of few double bonds in the structure. Although 10-N-nonyl acridine orange (NAO) has been utilized for fluorescent visualization of liposomes and mitochondria through its interaction with CL, in this work, we have developed a specific fluorescent method for CL in solution using NAO. The interaction of sodium n-dodecyl sulfate (SDS), used to treat cells prior to lipid extraction, and other PLs found in cell membranes such as phosphatidic acid (PA), phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), phosphatidiylserine (PS), and sphingomyelin (SM) with NAO is investigated. The fluorescence intensity of the 0.5 microM NAO signal is strongly quenched by SDS below 25% methanol in water but with a methanol content above 50%, no quenching of NAO by SDS is observed. No fluorescence quenching of NAO with a 50% methanol/50% water solvent by the previously mentioned PLs or 4-20 microM cholesterol with the exception of PG at above 8 microM is noted. Using this 50% methanol/50% water solvent, the fluorescence signal due to the NAO-CL interaction is quite stable from 3 to at least 15 min. With excitation and emission wavelengths set at 518 and 530 nm, respectively, 20 microM NAO provides an inverse linear fluorescence response at 0.2-10 microM CL with a correlation coefficient of 0.9929. The detection limit is 0.2 microM and the limit of quantification is 0.6 microM. Structurally analogous acridine orange and phenosafranin dyes are less effective as fluorescent probes for CL. The CL in the whole cell and membrane samples is quantitatively determined by standard addition to range from 0.2 to 1.5 microM. The level of CL in cell membrane samples, previously subjected to staurosporine which initiates cell apoptosis, is increased but not significantly through use of the t-test.

Abstract
The significance of fluorescence anisotropy in fluorescence intensity and lifetime measurements, and erroneous measurements and interpretations resulting from its disregard, are thoroughly discussed, formulated and quantified. In all fluorescence-related measurements--including excitation and emission spectra, relative fluorescence intensity (FI), fluorescenc life time (FLT), fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), etc., with the exception of fluorescence polarization and anisotropy--it is generally true that the higher the fluorescence anisotropy, the greater the distortion of fluorescence measurements. Quantifiable distortions occur when fluorescence measurements are conducted without considering the influence of fluorescence anisotropy. Here, this influence is described by numerous newly developed mathematical expressions which are simulated and experimentally confirmed utilizing single and binary fluorescent solutions of fluorophores with different spectroscopic characteristics. A marked agreement is shown between the theory and experimental data, clearly indicating the legitimacy of the physical suppositions and the mathematical expressions presented in this paper. Practical and instructive implications are discussed. The following findings are of special applicative importance: 1) the existence of an infinite number of couples of Magic Angles; 2) the deviation between two equally fluorescing particles having different fluorescence anisotropies; 3) the relation between the detected fluorescence intensity and anisotropy when measured under various setups of emission and excitation polarizers; 4) the dependence of the artificial normalized steady-state weight of a single-exponentially decaying fluorophore on its fluorescence anisotropy.

Abstract
The fluorescent dye 10-N-nonyl acridine orange (NAO) is extensively used for location and quantitative assays of cardiolipin in living cells on the assumption of its high specificity for cardiolipin; however, the limits and the mechanism of this specificity are not clear. Moreover, whether factors such as the membrane potential in mitochondria may limit the consistency of the results obtained by this method is open to discussion. The aim of this research was to investigate the effects of some experimental factors on the selective fluorescence of NAO in the presence of cardiolipin in artificial and natural membranes (mitochondria). The results show that the fluorescence of NAO, due to interaction with cardiolipin, is significantly modified by factors that control the spatial arrangement of cardiolipin molecules within the space of the membrane under investigation. Moreover, the present observations suggest that the specific effect of cardiolipin is to facilitate the dimerization of this fluorescent dye, thus confirming that reliable measurements of cardiolipin concentration can be obtained only when the NAO/cardiolipin molar ratio is equal to 2. The finding is also reported that in isolated respiring mitochondria the interaction of NAO with cardiolipin is somewhat related to the respiratory state of mitochondria.

Abstract
cellular level is not completely understood, but both aging and loading-induced stresses have been shown to undermine cell functions related to the maintenance and restoration of the cartilage matrix. Based on precedents set by studies of other age-related degenerative diseases, we have focused our laboratory work on senescence as the cause of age-dependent decline in chondrocytes and on the impact of excessive mechanical stresses in promoting senescence. We hypothesized that senescent chondrocytes accumulate with age in articular cartilage and we propose that excessive mechanical stress plays a role in this process by promoting oxidative damage in chondrocytes that ultimately causes them to senesce. To test this hypothesis, we measured cell senescence markers (beta-galactosidase expression, mitotic activity, and telomere length) in human articular cartilage chondrocytes, and determined the effects of chronic exposure to oxidative stress on chondrocyte growth and senescence. In addition, we measured the effects of abnormally high levels of mechanical shear stress on the release of oxidants in cartilage explants. We found that senescent chondrocytes accumulated with age in articular cartilage. In vitro studies showed that chronic oxidative stress caused by repeated exposure to peroxide, or by growth under superphysiologic oxygen tension caused chondrocyte populations to senesce prematurely, before extensive telomere erosion occurred. Mechanical shear stress applied to cartilage explants considerably increased the production of oxidants. These observations support the hypothesis that senescence accounts for age-related decline in chondrocyte function and indicate that mechanically induced oxidative damage plays a role in this process. This suggests that new efforts to prevent the development and progression of osteoarthritis should include strategies that slow the progression of chondrocyte senescence or replace senescent cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND With increasing age, the prevalence of osteoarthritis increases and the efficacy of articular cartilage repair decreases. As chondrocytes age, they synthesize smaller, less uniform aggrecan molecules and less functional link proteins, their mitotic and synthetic activity decline, and their responsiveness to anabolic mechanical stimuli and growth factors decreases. These observations led us to hypothesize that progressive cell senescence decreases the ability of chondrocytes to maintain and to restore articular cartilage. METHODS To test this hypothesis, we measured cell senescence markers (beta-galactosidase expression, mitotic activity, and telomere length) in human articular cartilage chondrocytes from twenty-seven donors ranging in age from one to eighty-seven years. We also assessed mitochondrial DNA, membrane potential, and numerical density. To determine if chondrocyte age changes are reversible, we transfected human articular cartilage chondrocytes with the human telomerase gene (hTERT) and human papilloma virus oncogenes (E6 and E7). RESULTS Beta-galactosidase expression increased with age (r = 0.84, p = 0.0001), while mitotic activity and telomere length declined (r = -0.77, p = 0.001 and r = -0.71, p = 0.0004, respectively). Decreasing telomere length was closely correlated with increasing expression of beta-galactosidase and decreasing mitotic activity. As the number of population doublings increased, mitochondrial DNA was degraded, mitochondrial membrane potential was lost, and the number of mitochondria per cell declined. Transfection of human articular cartilage chondrocytes from a forty-seven-year-old donor with hTERT and human papilloma virus proto-oncogenes E6 and E7 created a cell line that has completed more than 300 population doublings as compared with an upper limit of twenty-five population doublings for normal cells. Telomere length increased in cells transduced with hTERT. CONCLUSIONS These findings help to explain the previously reported age-related declines in chondrocyte synthetic activity, mitotic activity, and responsiveness to anabolic cytokines and mechanical stimuli. They also suggest that in vivo chondrocyte senescence contributes to the age-related increase in the prevalence of osteoarthritis and decrease in the efficacy of cartilage repair. The creation of immortal cells with increased telomere length suggests that the progression of human chondrocytes toward senescence is not inevitable.

Abstract
10-N-Nonyl acridine orange (NAO) has been used at low concentrations as a fluorescent indicator for cardiolipin (CL) in membranes and bilayers. The mechanism of its selective fluorescence in the presence of CL, and not any other phospholipids, is not understood. The dye might recognize CL by its high pK (pK(2)>8.5). To investigate that, we established that NAO does not exhibit a pK in a pH range between 2.3 and 10.0. A second explanation is that the dye aggregates at hydrophobic domains on bilayers exposed by the CL. We found that a similar spectral shift occurs in the absence of CL in a concentrated solution of the dye in methanol and in the solid state. A model is proposed in which the nonyl group inserts in the bilayer at the hydrophobic surface generated by the presence of four chains on the phospholipid.

Abstract
Fluorescent DeltapH and DeltaPsi indicators have been screened for the non-invasive monitoring of bioenergetic processes in whole cells of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. Acridine yellow and Acridine orange proved to be the best DeltapH indicators for the investigation of thylakoid and cytoplasmic membrane energization: While Acridine yellow indicated only cytosolic energization, Acridine orange showed signals from both the thylakoid lumen and the cytosol that could be separated kinetically. Both indicators were applied successfully to monitor cellular energetics, such as the interplay of linear and cyclic photosynthetic electron transport, osmotic adaptation and solute transport across the cytoplasmic membrane. In contrast, useful membrane potential indicators were more difficult to find, with Di-4-ANEPPS and Brilliant cresyl blue being the only promising candidates for further studies. Finally, Acridine yellow and Acridine orange could also be applied successfully for the thermophilic cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus. Different from Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, where both respiration and ATP hydrolysis could be utilized for cytoplasmic membrane energization, proton extrusion at the cytoplasmic membrane in Synechococcus elongatus was preferentially driven by ATP hydrolysis.

Abstract
Mitochondrial function is central to a range of cell processes and mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to a number of human diseases. Consequently there is growing interest in delivering large molecules such as nucleic acids, proteins, enzyme mimetics, drugs and probes to mitochondria within cells. The reasons for doing this are to understand how mitochondria function in the cell and to develop therapies for diseases involving mitochondrial damage. Here we review the methods that have been used to target large molecules to mitochondria and discuss some approaches under development.

Abstract
Using a cytofluorimetric approach, we studied intramitochondrial cardiolipin (CL) distribution in HCW-2 cells, an apoptosis-resistant clone of human HL-60 cells. In HL-60, about 50% of total CL is distributed in the outer leaflet of mitochondrial inner membrane, while in HCW-2 a significantly higher amount of CL (about 65%) is in that site. In basal conditions, HSW-2 cells also show a reduced mitochondrial membrane potential even if they are able to proliferate as the parental line. Taking into account the complex functions that CL plays in the regulation of mitochondrial activity, it is likely that HCW-2 could produce ATP utilizing more glycolytic pathways rather than mitochondrial respiratory chain.

Abstract
The major function of mitochondria in human cells is to provide ATP by oxidative phosphorylation. However, mitochondria have many other roles including the modulation of intracellular calcium concentration and the regulation of apoptotic cell death. Furthermore, the mitochondrial respiratory chain is a major source of damaging free radicals. Consequently, mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to a number of human diseases, ranging from neurodegenerative diseases and ischaemia-reperfusion injury to obesity and diabetes. In addition, mutations to nuclear or mitochondrial DNA cause a number of human diseases. Therefore, strategies to prevent mitochondrial damage or to manipulate mitochondrial function in clinically useful ways may provide new therapies for a range of human disorders. Here we outline why mitochondria are a potentially important target for drug delivery and discuss how to deliver bioactive molecules selectively to mitochondria within cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We set out to develop an assay for the simultaneous analysis of mitochondrial membrane potential and mass using the probes 10-nonyl acridine orange (NAO), MitoFluor Green (MFG), and MitoTracker Green (MTG) in HL60 cells. However, in experiments in which NAO and MFG were combined with orange emitting mitochondrial membrane potential (DeltaPsi(m)) probes, we found clear responses to DeltaPsi(m) altering drugs for both probes. METHODS The three probes were titrated to determine whether saturation played a role in the response to drugs. The effects of a variety of DeltaPsi(m) altering drugs were tested for MFG and MTG at probe concentrations of 20 nM and 200 nM and for NAO at 0.1 microM and 5 microM, using rhodamine 123 at 0.1 microM as a reference probe. RESULTS Incubation of GM130, HL60, and U937 cells with 2,3-butanedione monoxime (BDM), nigericin, carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP), carbonyl cyanide p-(trifluoromethoxy)phenylhydrazone (FCCP), 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP), gramicidin, ouabain, and valinomycin resulted in increases of the fluorescence intensity for MFG or MTG with only a few exceptions. The fluorescence intensity of cells stained with 0.1 microM NAO increased following incubation with BDM, nigericin, and decreased for FCCP, CCCP, DNP, gramicidin, and valinomycin. The results with 5 microM NAO were similar. CONCLUSIONS MFG, MTG, and NAO appeared poor choices for the membrane potential independent analysis of mitochondrial membrane mass. Considering the molecular structure of these probes that favor accumulation in the mitochondrial membrane because of a positive charge, our results are not surprising. Cytometry 39:203-210, 2000.

Abstract
Cells in the inner region of multicellular spheroids markedly reduce their oxygen consumption rate, presumably in response to their stressful microenvironment. To determine the mechanism behind this metabolic adaptation, we have investigated relative mitochondrial mass and mitochondrial function in cells isolated from different regions of tumor spheroids by using a combination of mitochondrial-specific fluorescent stains and flow cytometric analysis. Uptake of rhodamine 123 (R123) is driven by the mitochondrial membrane potential and thus reflects mitochondrial activity. Uptake of 10-nonyl-acridine orange (NAO) reflects total mitochondrial mass independently of activity because this compound binds to cardiolipin in the inner mitochondrial membrane. NAO fluorescence per unit cell volume only decreased 10-20% for cells from the inner spheroid region compared with those near the surface. There was greater than a twofold reduction in R123 fluorescence in the inner region cells, however. Thus, tumor cells in spheroids alter their rate of respiration predominately by downregulating mitochondrial function as opposed to degradation of mitochondria. There was a correlation between R123 staining per unit cell volume and the growth fraction of the cells from spheroids, but not for monolayer cultures. We also show a linear correlation between R123 staining and the rate of oxygen consumption for both monolayer- and spheroid-derived cells. After separating the inner region cells from the spheroid and replating them in monolayer culture, the R123 uptake recovered to normal levels prior to entry of the cells into S-phase. This reduction in mitochondrial function in quiescent cells from spheroids can explain the long period required for these cells to re-enter the cell cycle and may have important implications for the regulation of tumor cell oxygenation in vivo.

Abstract
Administration of sublethal doses of endotoxin produces tolerance to subsequent oxidative stress in diverse animal models. Although endotoxin induces antioxidant enzymes, particularly manganous superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD), the phenomenon of tolerance remains incompletely understood. Previously I determined that endotoxin treatment in rats increased lung mitochondrial respiration-dependent (i.e., independent of Mn-SOD) scavenging of superoxide anion. Because nonenzymatic scavenging of superoxide anion correlates with the mitochondrial membrane energy gradient, I hypothesized that endotoxin increases the mitochondrial transmembrane potential. Endotoxin treatment (500 micrograms/kg intraperitoneally 48 h earlier) increased the hepatocyte mitochondrial transmembrane potential as determined by two separate methods: the intramitochondrial sequestration of triphenylmethylphosphonium (electrical potential or delta psi) and the fluorescence intensity of the hepatocyte mitochondria when stained with rhodamine-123 and examined by confocal microscopy. These findings suggest that endotoxin treatment increased the total mitochondrial membrane potential per hepatocyte. In parallel, endotoxin treatment increased the fluorescence intensity of hepatocyte mitochondria after staining with 10-N-nonyl-acridine orange, a dye that binds to the mitochondrial inner membrane independently of the transmembrane potential. This suggests that an increase in mitochondrial inner membrane mass is responsible for the net increase in inner membrane potential per cell following endotoxin pretreatment. These findings complement previous studies in which endotoxin treatment increased the mitochondrial-specific antioxidant Mn-SOD and support the more recent finding that endotoxin treatment also increased nonenzymatic scavenging of superoxide by lung mitochondria. Taken, together, these observations suggest that mitochondrial biogenesis, and the subsequent increase in both enzymatic and nonenzymatic scavenging of superoxide anion, is a central feature of endotoxin-mediated tolerance to oxidative stress.

Abstract
The deuteroporphyrin-IX derivative Dimegin [2,4-di-(alpha-methoxyethyl)-deuteroporphyrin IX] was investigated with respect to cellular uptake, intracellular localization and cell survival following photodynamic treatment in human cell lines derived from the skin (SCL1 and SCL2, squamous cell carcinoma; HaCaT keratinocytes; N1 fibroblasts). Using flow cytometry, we determined the cellular fluorescence as a marker of the uptake of Dimegin after incubation for 24 h. The intracellular localization of Dimegin was analysed using fluorescence microscopy and co-staining with fluorescent dyes specific for cell organelles. Following irradiation with an incoherent light source (580-740 nm) using a light dose of 24 J/cm2, phototoxicity was determined by means of trypan blue dye exclusion, MTT assays and growth curves. The relative Dimegin fluorescence of the different cell lines declined as follows: SCL1 > HaCaT > N1 > SCL2. Intracellular localization of Dimegin was found in the mitochondria. For all cell lines Dimegin concentrations above 15 microM yielded a significant phototoxic effect. The EC50 for SCL1 cells was 8.9 +/- 2.0 microM Dimegin. The EC50 for the cell lines increased as follows: SCL1 < HaCaT < N1 < SCL2, thus correlating with the cellular fluorescence of Dimegin. The results of the MTT assay were confirmed by trypan blue dye exclusion assay and growth curves. In conclusion, the study shows that Dimegin is an effective photosensitizer with a rapid mechanism of action in vitro, resulting in an immediate loss of plasma membrane integrity following irradiation.

Abstract
Mitochondria of rapidly developing mungbean seedlings were fractionated into four populations: two density classes, each from a 1500S and a 150S pellet. Each of the four populations exhibited cytochrome c oxidase (COX) activity and contained mitochondrial DNA and cardiolipin; plastid and glyoxysome content were found to be relatively low. Five mitochondrial membrane proteins, COXII/III, ATPase alpha/beta and porin, and a matrix enzyme, manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), were detected by immunoblots in all four populations. Another matrix enzyme, pyruvate dehydrogenase was detected only in the two respiratory-competent 1500S populations. The two 150S populations contained a previously unidentified organelle that lacked demonstrable respiratory capability. This organelle, which we have tentatively referred to as "slow-sedimenting (ss-) mitochondrion", was small in size (below light-optics resolution, 70-300nm, majority < or =200nm) and possessed a peculiar looking boundary membrane, ribosomes, and an occasional prominent electron-dense spot. Characteristically, ss-mitochondria were almost always in contact with a filament-aligned membrane-like structure of varying length. Cristae structure, while undetected in small ss-mitochondria, appeared in larger individuals. Typical mitochondria were found in the denser 1500S population, while the lighter 1500S population consisted of 300-800 nm mitochondria exhibiting a varying degree of size-dependent inner membrane folding. Using electron microscopy (EM) immunolocalization and serial sectioning, we have identified in situ organelles resembling in size and in fine structure the ss-mitochondria, which also exhibit a size-dependent folding of the inner membrane. These results suggest that small ss-mitochondria may undergo a progressive development in situ. Taken together, our findings demonstrate the existence of a pattern of structure-function-coordinated gross heterogeneity among mitochondria. This pattern of mitochondrial heterogeneity, characterized both in isolated mitochondria and in situ, implies that small ss-mitochondria may represent a type of "nascent mitochondria" derived from a yet unidentified mitochondria-propagation mode operating during rapid seedling growth. Mitochondrial division by binary fission, characterized by the appearance of dumbbell-shaped intermediates, was also detected.

Abstract
Two mitochondrion-specific fluorochromes, 10-N-nonyl acridine orange (NAO) and rhodamine 123 (Rh123), were used to determine the mechanism responsible for alterations in energy metabolism of transformed rat embryo fibroblast cells isolated from different locations within multicellular spheroids. Accumulation of Rh123 depends on intact mitochondrial membrane potential, whereas NAO is taken up by mitochondria independently of their function and thus represents mitochondrial distribution only. A reproducible selective dissociation procedure was used to isolate cells from different locations within the spheroids. After isolation, cells were simultaneously stained with one mitochondrial stain and the DNA dye Hoechst 33342, and several parameters, including cell volume, were monitored via multilaser-multiparameter flow cytometry. Our data clearly show a decrease in the uptake of Rh123 in cells from the periphery to the inner regions of the tumor spheroids, reflecting a persistent alteration in mitochondrial function. However, NAO staining experiments showed no reduction in the total mitochondrial mass per unit cell volume. Because cells were exposed to stain under uniform conditions after isolation from the spheroid, these data indicate the downregulation of mitochondrial function is associated with cell quiescence rather than a transient effect of reduced nutrient availability. This result, which is in accordance with data from two other cell lines (EMT6 and 9L), might reflect a general phenomenon in multicellular spheroids, supporting the hypothesis that quiescent cells in the innermost viable spheroid layer stably reduce their mitochondrial function, presumably to compensate for lower nutrient supply and/or decreased energy demand.

Abstract
A gene from Saccharomyces cerevisiae whose overexpression confers resistance to 10-N-nonyl acridine orange (NAO) has been isolated. This cationic dye binds acidic phospholipids and more specifically cardiolipin (Petit, J. M., Maftah, A., Ratinaud, M. H. and Julien, R. Eur. J. Biochem. 209, 267-273, 1992). The isolated gene was found to be identical to SGE1, a partial multicopy suppressor of the gal11 mutation (Amakasu, H., Suzuki, Y., Nishizawa, M. and Fukasawa, T. Genetics 134, 675-683, 1993), that also confers crystal violet resistance to a supersensitive strain (Ehrenhofer-Murray, A. E., Wurgler, F. E. and Sengstag, C. Mol. Gen. Genet. 244, 287-294, 1994). The data presented in this paper show that the SGE1 gene product, a member of the major facilitator superfamily, confers a pleiotropic drug-resistance phenotype when present in high copy number. The results also demonstrate that Sge1p acts as an extrusion permease whose specificity seems restricted to dye molecules possessing a large unsaturated domain that stabilizes a permanent positive charge such as NAO, crystal violet, ethidium bromide or malachite green.

Abstract
Eighteen generations of divergent selection for residual feed intake have been completed in two Rhode Island Red lines of domestic fowl. The high intake R+ line and the low intake R- line cocks used to sire Generation 19 of the selection experiment have been compared for associated responses on fertility, hatching, and sperm quality. Evaluations of sperm samples were based on volume, cell concentration, biochemical parameters (pH, uric acid and protein concentrations), and motility and morphology of spermatozoa. Finally, individual spermatozoa were analyzed by flow-cytometry (FCM) using Rhodamine 123 (Rh123) and nonyl-acrydine-orange (NAO) specific fluorochromes to assess, respectively, overall mitochondrial activity and overall mitochondrial content. Hatchability of incubated eggs was 20 points higher for the R- line, mainly because unfertilized eggs were only 6 vs 30% in the R+ line. Early embryo mortality was also twice as high in the R+ line (21%). The ratio of Rh123 to NAO fluorescence was identical for both lines. This result suggests that there was no difference in the energy producing potential of the individual mitochondria. Therefore, the difference seen for both dyes between the two lines might be attributed to a difference in the quantity of mitochondrial inner membranes present in the cell (with 17% less for the R+ line). In the R+ line, the poor performance at fertilization and during early embryonic development was associated with lower production of motile spermatozoa, possibly in relation to a lower quantity of mitochondria in spermatozoa from R+ cocks. Although the female contribution to the differences between lines was not explored separately, results suggest that selection for residual feed intake may have altered some cellular function related to the production of energy in the R+ line.

Abstract
Lipophilic dye cations specifically bind to the mitochondria of living cells. Using fluorescent dyes, the mitochondria can easily be observed with a fluorescence microscope. Electron microscopy has shown that the dyes are bound to the inner mitochondrial membranes and the cristae. Using time-resolved fluorescence microscopy we have investigated, whether the dye molecules are preferentially accumulated at the strongly hydrophobic protein complexes of energy metabolism or at the lipids of the inner membrane system. In order to use our nanosecond-pulsed laser fluorometer we synthesized specially designed lipophilic pyrene cations with S1 lifetimes in the nanosecond domain, which specifically stain mitochondria in living HeLa cells. Model experiments with artificial membranes such as liposomes, proteoliposomes and also protein complexes have shown that the fluorescence is strongly quenched by oxygen if the pyrene probes are bound to lipids. Binding to proteins causes a much smaller quenching effect. In artificial systems, all decays were single exponential. This is in contrast with incubated HeLa cells, which showed double-exponential fluorescence decays. Comparing these with the artificial systems we came to the conclusion that in HeLa cells the long-lived species 1 are pyrene probes preferentially bound to the proteins of the inner mitochondrial membranes. The short-lived species 2 is caused by fluorescence resonance energy transfer from the pyrene probes as donors to cytochromes of the inner membranes as acceptors. From our decay data we estimated a mean distance between donor and acceptor of about 40 A. This is the same order of magnitude as the mean diameters of several mitochondrial protein complexes. Therefore we assumed that species 2 are pyrene probes bound either to mitochondrial proteins with cytochromes as constituents or to the interface between these proteins and the phospholipids of the membranes. Thus both species 1 and species 2 are spatially related to mitochrondrial proteins. This agrees with the observation that respiration of HeLa cells as well as cytochrome c oxidase vesicles (COVs) are inhibited with increasing concentration of pyrene probes. Finally, we studied the photodynamic effect on irradiation of HeLa cells and of COVs after incubation with lipophilic pyrene and porphyrine cations.

Abstract
The dye 10-N-nonyl-3,6-bis(dimethylamino)acridine (10-N-nonyl acridine orange) has been recently identified as a specific probe for cardiolipin (Ka = 2 x 10(6) M-1). It also interacts, at lower affinity (Ka = 7 x 10(4) M-1), with other acidic phospholipids [Petit, J. M., Maftah, A., Ratinaud, M. H. & Julien, R. (1992) Eur. J. Biochem. 209, 267-273]. In order to reduce the interference corresponding to monoacidic phospholipid binding, we have quantified cardiolipin by using a fluorimetric method based on the red fluorescence of the dye dimers formed at the diacidic phospholipid contact. Hence we have demonstrated that: (a) in yeast, the mitochondrion is the target of the dye whatever the cell metabolism; (b) membrane or protein organization and fatty acid unsaturation do not significantly modify the binding of 10-N-nonyl acridine orange. Using thin-walled vesicles, a linear relationship was established between the amount of cardiolipin and the red fluorescence emitted by the dye. Low red fluorescences were also observed with vesicles containing phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol. However, at the same acidic phospholipid concentration, the fluorescence was much higher using cardiolipin-containing vesicles (fivefold that observed with phosphatidylserine-containing vesicles). Thus, 10-N-nonyl acridine orange was applied to cardiolipin quantification in yeast. This new method revealed that cells growing with a high glucose concentration contained 2.2 +/- 0.3 nmol cardiolipin/10(6) cells, whereas with lactate they contained about twice this amount (3.9 +/- 0.3 nmol cardiolipin).

Abstract
The lipophilic cationic fluorescent dye azopentylmethylindocarbocyanine (APMC) specifically stains the mitochondria in living cells. The dye contains a photosensitive diazirine ring and is suitable for photoaffinity labelling of mitochondrial proteins. By a combination of photoaffinity labelling cell cultures of mouse fibroblasts (LM) with APMC, lysis of the labelled cells, subsequent micro-gel electrophoresis and detection of the fluorescence of the labelled proteins in the gel lanes with a sensitive microfluorimeter, we determined the number, apparent molecular masses, and relative intensity of the labelled proteins. In LM cells, three proteins with apparent molecular masses of 31, 40, and 74 kDa were labelled with high intensity, and proteins of 28, 29, 44, 48, 49, 66, and 105 kDa with low intensity. Two effects mainly determine the binding of lipophilic dye cations to mitochondrial proteins in living cells: (1) interaction of the trans-membrane potential of the inner mitochondrial membrane with the dye cations; and (2) hydrophobic interactions between the strongly lipophilic proteins of the inner membrane and the lipophilic dye molecules. Preincubation of the cell cultures with drugs that dissipate the trans-membrane potential, such as valinomycin, 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) and 3-chlorcarbonyl-cyanide-phenylhydrazone (CCCP), strongly reduces or even prevents APMC labelling of mitochondrial proteins. The influence of hydrophobic interactions was investigated by competitive staining experiments using dyes with very different lipophilic properties. The lipophilicity of the dyes was characterized by their Rm values in reversed phase thin-layer chromatography.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The distribution of cardiolipin across the inner mitochondrial membrane was directly determined by using the ability of the fluorescent dye 10-N-nonyl-3,6-bis(dimethylamino)acridine (10-N-nonyl acridine orange) to form dimers when it interacts with the diacidic phospholipid. Two independent methods were employed: (a) a spectrophotometric measurement of 10-N-nonyl acridine orange binding to isolated rat liver mitochondria, mitoplasts and inside-out submitochondrial particles, and (b) a flow-cytometric analysis of specific red fluorescence, emitted when two dye molecules are bound to one membrane cardiolipin; the stoichiometry of 10-N-nonyl acridine orange binding to phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol, 1 mol dye/mol phospholipid, prevented dye dimerisation and subsequent red-fluorescence appearance. 57% total cardiolipin was present in the outer leaflets of inner membranes of isolated organelles, a distribution confirmed by saturation measurements for mitoplasts and inside-out submitochondrial particles. The same asymmetry was directly observed in situ with mitochondrial membranes of quiescent L1210 cells, and with mitochondrial membranes of respiring yeasts. Nevertheless, alterations in ATP synthesis and inhibition of mitochondrial protein synthesis revealed that cardiolipin distribution was apparently tightly correlated with mitochondrial membrane assembly and activity.

Abstract
A micromethod was developed for investigating the interactions between fluorescent dyes and cellular proteins. The lipophilic cationic dye APMC (azopentylmethylcarbocyanine) contains a photosensitive diazirine ring and is suitable for photoaffinity labelling. By combining photoaffinity labelling of cultured cells, micro-gel electrophoresis and detection of the fluorescence with a microfluorimeter, we established a highly sensitive and rapid procedure to identify APMC labelled proteins. Cells which had been incubated for 10 min with 10(-8) M APMC could be analysed for APMC binding without difficulty. Under our experimental conditions this corresponds to about 0.2 nmol APMC per mg protein. The lipophilic APMC specifically stains the mitochondria in living HeLa and LM cells. The fluorescing mitochondria can be easily detected under a fluorescence microscope. By photoaffinity labelling we were able to show that at low dye concentrations APMC preferentially marks four proteins with apparent molecular masses of 31, 40, 66, and 74 kDa. In order to establish that these are mitochondrial proteins, we isolated and analysed the mitochondria from incubated HeLa and LM cells; again, the same four proteins were detected. They are most probably proteins of the inner mitochondrial membranes, which accumulate the lipophilic APMC cations.

Abstract
To better understand quinolone-related arthropathy, we conceived an experimental ex vivo model using cell cultures of articular chondrocytes issued from pretreated New Zealand White rabbits (NZW). Juvenile (4- to 5-week-old) NZW were orally dosed with ofloxacin or pefloxacin (300 mg/kg of body weight for 1 day) or with pefloxacin (300 mg/kg for 7 days). Adult (5-month-old) NZW were treated with pefloxacin (300 mg/kg for 1 day). Chondrocytes were enzymatically recovered from cartilage and were analyzed by cytofluorometry using 2',7'-dichlorofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA) and dihydrorhodamine 123 (DHR), reflecting cellular respiratory-burst activity, and rhodamine 123 (Rh123) and 10-N-nonyl-acridine orange (NAO), specific for the mitochondrial activity and mass, respectively. A significant increase in the respiratory burst was detected by DCFH-DA and DHR in all treated groups of young animals, compared with untreated control groups. No significant increase of respiratory burst was noted in older treated rabbits. The 7-day treatment resulted in a decrease in mitochondrial uptake of Rh123 and an increase in NAO uptake. Fluoroquinolone arthrotoxicity seems to involve in its early phase the respiratory burst of immature articular chondrocytes.

Abstract
Lipophilic cationic fluorescent dyes (D) specifically stain the mitochondria of living cells. A perfusion chamber for cell cultures is described, which can be used to determine the kinetics of vital staining of the mitochondria of single selected cells in situ. In these experiments styrylpyridinium dyes and cultures of HeLa cells were used. The dyes differ strongly in their lipophilic properties; Rm values and the partition coefficients Po/w between n-octanol (o) and water (w) were determined in order to characterize their lipophilicity. In the thermostat-regulated chamber the concentration of the dye CD can be increased from CD = 0 to CD > 0 within a few seconds (concentration jump). Thus, the time t = 0 for the beginning of the vital staining and the dye concentration in the cell medium during the staining experiment, CD = const., are unambiguously defined. The concentration of the dye, Cb, which is bound to the mitochondria (b), is proportional to the intensity of the fluorescence Ib. On the other hand, the free dye molecules (f) in the aqueous medium exhibit practically no fluorescence, I(f) << Ib. The intensity of the fluorescence I = Ib was measured as a function of time t; the measured values were corrected for photobleaching. The fluorescence intensity I(t) at first increases linearly with t and reaches a saturation value for t-->infinity. In the linear range of I(t) the flow J(o) = (dI/dt)o of the dye into the cell depends strongly on the dye concentration and increases linearly with CD. The concentration range CD = 10(-9)-10(-5) M at 37 degrees C was investigated. From the linear correlation between J(o) and CD it follows that the kinetics of the vital staining of mitochondria is controlled by diffusion. At t = 0 the flow of the xenobiotic agent through the cell membrane determines the rate of staining. The slope dJ(o)/dCD of the plot J(o) vs CD describes the efficiency of dye accumulation at the mitochondria and strongly increases with increasing lipophilicity of the dye molecules. Thus lipophilic dyes pass through the cell membrane more easily than less lipophilic molecules.

Abstract
The urf13TW gene, which is derived from the mitochondrial T-urf13 gene responsible for Texas cytoplasmic male sterility in maize, was expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by targeting its translation product into mitochondria. Analysis by oxygraphy at the population level revealed that in the presence of methomyl the oxygen uptake of intact yeast cells carrying the targeted protein is strongly stimulated only with ethanol as respiratory substrate and not with glycerol, lactate, pyruvate, or acetate. When malate is the substrate oxidized by isolated mitochondria, interaction between the targeted protein and methomyl results in significant inhibition of oxygen uptake. This inhibition is eliminated and oxygen uptake is stimulated by subsequent addition of NAD+. Using 3,3'-dihexyloxacarbocyanine iodide [DiOC6(3)] as probe, interactive laser scanning and flow cytometry, which permit analysis at the individual cell level, demonstrated that specific staining of the mitochondrial compartment is obtained and that DiOC6(3) fluorescence serves as a measure of the membrane potential. Finally, it was shown that, as in T cytoplasm maize mitochondria, HmT toxin and methomyl dissipate the membrane potential of yeast mitochondria that carry the foreign protein. Furthermore, the results suggest that the HmT toxin and methomyl response is related to the plasmid copy number per cell and that the deleterious effect induced by HmT toxin is stronger than that of methomyl.

Abstract
The acridine orange derivative, 10N-nonyl acridine orange, is an appropriate marker of the inner mitochondrial membrane in whole cells. We use membrane model systems to demonstrate that 10N-nonyl acridine orange binds to negatively charged phospholipids (cardiolipin, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylserine). The stoichiometry has been found to be 2 mol 10N-nonyl acridine orange/mol cardiolipin and 1 mol dye/mol phosphatidylserine or phosphatidylinositol, while, with zwitterionic phospholipids, significant binding could not be detected. The affinity constants were 2 x 10(6) M-1 for cardiolipin-10N-nonyl-acridine-orange association and only 7 x 10(4) M-1 for that of phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol association. The high affinity of the dye for cardiolipin may be explained by two essential interactions; firstly an electrostatic interaction between the quaternary ammonium of nonyl acridine orange and the ionized phosphate residues of cardiolipin and secondly, hydrophobic interactions between adjacent chromophores. A linear relationship was demonstrated between the cardiolipin content of model membranes and the incorporated dye. Consequently, a convenient and rapid method for cardiolipin quantification in membranes was established and applied to the cardiolipin-containing organelle, the mitochondrion.

Abstract
MTT reduction is usually analysed by colorimetric assay to study mitochondrial dehydrogenase activity as a test of cytotoxicity. This enzymatic reaction produces dark-blue granules of formazan, which increase cell refringency. In this work, we define the conditions for MTT use in quantitative flow cytometric analysis. MTT reduction provides a non-fluorescent dye usable by this technique to study an intracellular NADH-dependent dehydrogenase activity in vital cells. We observe that formazan production increases asymptotically with cell concentration and that this temperature-dependent Michaelis enzymatic reduction is produced essentially by mitochondrial dehydrogenases. In isolated mitochondria from rat hepatocytes and in whole L1210 murine leukemia cells, the Michaelis constants (KM) observed in the presence of respiratory substrates were, respectively, 10 microM and 500 microM. The inhibition of mitochondrial protein synthesis by chloramphenicol, which induces a rise of MTT reduction due to the correlative stimulation of glycolysis (Pasteur effect), is a limit of the MTT assay as a cytotoxicity test.
