Abstract
The alkyltriphenylphosphonium (TPP) group is the most widely used vector targeted to mitochondria. Previously, the length of the alkyl linker was varied as well as structural modifications in the TPP phenyl rings to obtain the optimal therapeutic effect of a pharmacophore conjugated with a lipophilic cation. In the present work, we synthesized butyltriphenylphosphonium cations halogenated and methylated in phenyl rings (C4TPP-X) and measured electrical current through a planar lipid bilayer in the presence of C4TPP-X. The permeability of C4TPP-X varied in the range of 6 orders of magnitude and correlates well with the previously measured translocation rate constant for dodecyltriphenylphosphonium analogues. The partition coefficient of the butyltriphenylphosphonium analogues obtained by calculating the difference in the free energy of cation solvation in water and octane using quantum chemical methods correlates well with the permeability values. Using an ion-selective electrode, a lower degree of accumulation of analogues with halogenated phenyl groups was found on isolated mitochondria of rat liver, which is in agreement with their permeability decrease. Our results indicate the translocation of the butyltriphenylphosphonium cations across the hydrophobic membrane core as rate-limiting stage in the permeability process rather than their binding/release to/from the membrane.

Abstract
Diseases of the cornea are a frequent cause of blindness worldwide. Keratoplasty is an efficient method for treating severely damaged cornea. The functional competence of corneal endothelial cells is crucial for successful grafting, which requires improving the media for the hypothermic cornea preservation, as well as developing the methods for the evaluation of the corneal functional properties. The transport of water and ions by the corneal endothelium is important for the viability and optic properties of the cornea. We studied the impact of SkQ1 on the equilibrium sodium concentration in the endothelial cells after hypothermic preservation of pig cornea at 4°C for 1, 5, and 10 days in standard Eusol-C solution. The intracellular sodium concentration in the endothelial cells was assayed using the fluorescent dye Sodium Green; the images were analyzed with the custom-designed CytoDynamics computer program. The concentrations of sodium in the pig corneal endothelium significantly increased after 10 days of hypothermic preservation, while addition of 1.0 nM SkQ1 to the preservation medium decreased the equilibrium concentration of intracellular sodium (at 37°C). After 10 days of hypothermic preservation, the permeability of the plasma membrane for sodium decreased in the control cells, but not in the cells preserved in the presence of 1 nM SkQ1. Therefore, SkQ1 increased the ability of endothelial cells to restore the intracellular sodium concentration, which makes SkQ1 a promising agent for facilitating retention of the functional competence of endothelial cells during cold preservation.

Abstract
To clarify the contribution of charge delocalization in a lipophilic ion to the efficacy of its permeation through a lipid membrane, we compared the behavior of alkyl derivatives of triphenylphosphonium, tricyclohexylphosphonium and trihexylphosphonium both in natural and artificial membranes. Exploring accumulation of the lipophilic cations in response to inside-negative membrane potential generation in mitochondria by using an ion-selective electrode revealed similar mitochondrial uptake of butyltricyclohexylphosphonium (C4TCHP) and butyltriphenylphosphonium (C4TPP). Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy also demonstrated similar membrane potential-dependent accumulation of fluorescein derivatives of tricyclohexyldecylphosphonium and decyltriphenylphosphonium in mitochondria. The rate constant of lipophilic cation translocation across the bilayer lipid membrane (BLM), measured by the current relaxation method, moderately increased in the following sequence: trihexyltetradecylphosphonium ([P6,6,6,14]) < triphenyltetradecylphosphonium (C14TPP) < tricyclohexyldodecylphosphonium (C12TCHP). In line with these results, measurements of the BLM stationary conductance indicated that membrane permeability for C4TCHP is 2.5 times higher than that for C4TPP. Values of the difference in the free energy of ion solvation in water and octane calculated using the density functional theory and the polarizable continuum solvent model were similar for methyltriphenylphosphonium, tricyclohexylmethylphosphonium and trihexylmethylphosphonium. Our results prove that both cyclic and aromatic moieties are not necessary for lipophilic ions to effectively permeate through lipid membranes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a critical health issue worldwide. The high rate of liver and lung metastasis associated with CRC creates a significant barrier to effective and efficient therapy. Tumour cells, including CRC cells, have metabolic alterations, such as high levels of glycolytic activity, increased cell proliferation and invasiveness, and chemo- and radio-resistance. However, the abnormally elevated mitochondrial transmembrane potential of these cells also provides an opportunity to develop drugs that selectively target the mitochondrial functions of tumour cells. METHODS In this work, we used a new batch of benzoic acid esters with cytotoxic activities attached to the triphenylphosphonium group as a vehicle to target tumour mitochondria and improve their activity. We evaluated the cytotoxicity, selectivity, and mechanism of action of these derivatives, including the effects on energy stress-induced apoptosis and metabolic behaviour in the human CRC cell lines HCT-15 and COLO-205. RESULTS The benzoic acid derivatives selectively targeted the tumour cells with high potency and efficacy. The derivatives induced the uncoupling of the oxidative phosphorylation system, decreased the transmembrane potential, and reduced ATP levels while increasing AMPK activation, thereby triggering tumour cell apoptosis in both tumour cell lines tested. CONCLUSION The benzoic acid derivatives studied here are promising candidates for assessing in vivo models of CRC, despite the diverse metabolic characteristics of these tumour cells.

Abstract
With water providing a highly favored solution environment for industrial processes (and in biological processes), it is interesting to develop water-based electrolysis processes for the synthesis and conversion of organic and biomass-based molecules. Molecules with low solubility in aqueous media can be dispersed/solubilized (i) by physical dispersion tools (e.g., milling, power ultrasound, or high-shear ultraturrax processing), (ii) in some cases by pressurization/supersaturation (e.g., for gases), (iii) by adding cosolvents or "carriers" such as chremophor EL, or (iv) by adding surfactants to generate micelles, microemulsions, and/or stabilized biphasic conditions. This Account examines and compares methodologies to bring the dispersed or multiphase system into contact with an electrode. Both the microscopic process based on individual particle impact and the overall electro-organic transformation are of interest. Distinct mechanistic cases for multiphase redox processes are considered. Most traditional electro-organic transformations are performed in homogeneous solution with reagents, products, electrolyte, and possibly mediators or redox catalysts all in the same (usually organic) solution phase. This may lead to challenges in the product separation step and in the reuse of solvents and electrolytes. When aqueous electrolyte media are used, reagents and products (or even the electrolyte) may be present as microdroplets or nanoparticles. Redox transformations then occur during interfacial "collisions" under multiphase conditions or within a reaction layer when a redox mediator is present. Benefits of this approach can be (i) the use of a highly conducting aqueous electrolyte, (ii) simple separation of products and reuse of the electrolyte, (iii) phase-transfer conditions in redox catalysis, (iv) new reaction pathways, and (v) improved sustainability. In some cases, a surface phase or phase boundary processes can lead to interesting changes in reaction pathways. Controlling the reaction zone within the multiphase redox system poses a challenge, and methods based on microchannel flow reactors have been developed to provide a higher degree of control. However, detrimental effects in microchannel systems are also observed, in particular for limited current densities (which can be very low in microchannel multiphase flow) or in the development of technical solutions for scale-up of multiphase redox transformations. This Account describes physical approaches (and reactor designs) to bring multiphase redox systems into effective contact with the electrode surface as well as cases of important electro-organic multiphase transformations. Mechanistic cases considered are "impacts" by microdroplets or particles at the electrode, effects of dissolved intermediates or redox mediators, and effects of dissolved redox catalysts. These mechanistic cases are discussed for important multiphase transformations for gaseous, liquid, and solid dispersed phases. Processes based on mesoporous membranes and hydrogen-permeable palladium membranes are discussed.

Abstract
Mitochondria are recognized as one of the most important targets for new drug design in cancer, cardiovascular, and neurological diseases. Currently, the most effective way to deliver drugs specifically to mitochondria is by covalent linking a lipophilic cation such as an alkyltriphenylphosphonium moiety to a pharmacophore of interest. Other delocalized lipophilic cations, such as rhodamine, natural and synthetic mitochondria-targeting peptides, and nanoparticle vehicles, have also been used for mitochondrial delivery of small molecules. Depending on the approach used, and the cell and mitochondrial membrane potentials, more than 1000-fold higher mitochondrial concentration can be achieved. Mitochondrial targeting has been developed to study mitochondrial physiology and dysfunction and the interaction between mitochondria and other subcellular organelles and for treatment of a variety of diseases such as neurodegeneration and cancer. In this Review, we discuss efforts to target small-molecule compounds to mitochondria for probing mitochondria function, as diagnostic tools and potential therapeutics. We describe the physicochemical basis for mitochondrial accumulation of lipophilic cations, synthetic chemistry strategies to target compounds to mitochondria, mitochondrial probes, and sensors, and examples of mitochondrial targeting of bioactive compounds. Finally, we review published attempts to apply mitochondria-targeted agents for the treatment of cancer and neurodegenerative diseases.
