Abstract
Mitochondrial (m) Ca2+ influx is largely dependent on membrane potential (ΔΨm), whereas mCa2+ efflux occurs primarily via Ca2+ ion exchangers. We probed the kinetics of Ca2+/H+ exchange (CHEm) in guinea pig cardiac muscle mitochondria. We tested if net mCa2+ flux is altered during a matrix inward H+ leak that is dependent on matrix H+ pumping by ATPm hydrolysis at complex V (FOF1-ATPase). We measured [Ca2+]m, extra-mitochondrial (e) [Ca2+]e, ΔΨm, pHm, pHe, NADH, respiration, ADP/ATP ratios, and total [ATP]m in the presence or absence of protonophore dinitrophenol (DNP), mitochondrial uniporter (MCU) blocker Ru360, and complex V blocker oligomycin (OMN). We proposed that net slow influx/efflux of Ca2+ after adding DNP and CaCl2 is dependent on whether the ΔpHm gradient is/is not maintained by reciprocal outward H+ pumping by complex V. We found that adding CaCl2 enhanced DNP-induced increases in respiration and decreases in ΔΨm while [ATP]m decreased, ΔpHm gradient was maintained, and [Ca2+]m continued to increase slowly, indicating net mCa2+ influx via MCU. In contrast, with complex V blocked by OMN, adding DNP and CaCl2 caused larger declines in ΔΨm as well as a slow fall in pHm to near pHe while [Ca2+]m continued to decrease slowly, indicating net mCa2+ efflux in exchange for H+ influx (CHEm) until the ΔpHm gradient was abolished. The kinetics of slow mCa2+ efflux with slow H+ influx via CHEm was also observed at pHe 6.9 vs. 7.6 by the slow fall in pHm until ΔpHm was abolished; if Ca2+ reuptake via the MCU was also blocked, mCa2+ efflux via CHEm became more evident. Of the two components of the proton electrochemical gradient, our results indicate that CHEm activity is driven largely by the ΔpHm chemical gradient with H+ leak, while mCa2+ entry via MCU depends largely on the charge gradient ΔΨm. A fall in ΔΨm with excess mCa2+ loading can occur during cardiac cell stress. Cardiac cell injury due to mCa2+ overload may be reduced by temporarily inhibiting FOF1-ATPase from pumping H+ due to ΔΨm depolarization. This action would prevent additional slow mCa2+ loading via MCU and permit activation of CHEm to mediate efflux of mCa2+. HIGHLIGHTSWe examined how slow mitochondrial (m) Ca2+ efflux via Ca2+/H+ exchange (CHEm) is triggered by matrix acidity after a rapid increase in [Ca2+]m by adding CaCl2 in the presence of dinitrophenol (DNP) to permit H+ influx, and oligomycin (OMN) to block H+ pumping via FOF1-ATP synthase/ase (complex V). Declines in ΔΨm and pHm after DNP and added CaCl2 were larger when complex V was blocked. [Ca2+]m slowly increased despite a fall in ΔΨm but maintained pHm when H+ pumping by complex V was permitted. [Ca2+]m slowly decreased and external [Ca2+]e increased with declines in both ΔΨm and pHm when complex V was blocked. ATPm hydrolysis supports a falling pHm and redox state and promotes a slow increase in [Ca2+]m. After rapid Ca2+ influx due to a bolus of CaCl2, slow mCa2+ efflux by CHEm occurs directly if pHe is low.

Excitation-contraction coupling in ventricular myocytes is enhanced by paracrine signaling from mesenchymal stem cells. J Mol Cell Cardiol 2012; 52:1249-56. [PMID: 22465692 DOI: 10.1016/j.yjmcc.2012.03.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2011] [Revised: 02/14/2012] [Accepted: 03/12/2012] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
In clinical trials mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are transplanted into cardiac ischemic regions to decrease infarct size and improve contractility. However, the mechanism and time course of MSC-mediated cardioprotection are incompletely understood. We tested the hypothesis that paracrine signaling by MSCs promotes changes in cardiac excitation-contraction (EC) coupling that protects myocytes from cell death and enhances contractility. Isolated mouse ventricular myocytes (VMs) were treated with control tyrode, MSC conditioned-tyrode (ConT) or co-cultured with MSCs. The Ca handling properties of VMs were monitored by laser scanning confocal microscopy and whole cell voltage clamp. ConT superfusion of VMs resulted in a time dependent increase of the Ca transient amplitude (ConT(15min): ΔF/F(0)=3.52±0.38, n=14; Ctrl(15min): ΔF/F(0)=2.41±0.35, n=14) and acceleration of the Ca transient decay (τ: ConT: 269±18ms n=14; vs. Ctrl: 315±57ms, n=14). Voltage clamp recordings confirmed a ConT induced increase in I(Ca,L) (ConT: -5.9±0.5 pA/pF n=11; vs. Ctrl: -4.04±0.3 pA/pF, n=12). The change of τ resulted from increased SERCA activity. Changes in the Ca transient amplitude and τ were prevented by the PI3K inhibitors Wortmannin (100nmol/L) and LY294002 (10μmol/L) and the Akt inhibitor V (20μmol/L) indicating regulation through PI3K signal transduction and Akt activation which was confirmed by western blotting. A change in τ was also prevented in eNOS(-/-) myocytes or by inhibition of eNOS suggesting an NO mediated regulation of SERCA activity. Since paracrine signaling further resulted in increased survival of VMs we propose that the Akt induced change in Ca signaling is also a mechanism by which MSCs mediate an anti-apoptotic effect.

Abstract
As Giardia lamblia is unable to synthesize cholesterol de novo, this steroid might be obtained from the host's intestinal milieu by endocytosis of lipoproteins. In this work, we identified a putative Giardia lamblia low-density lipoprotein receptor-related proteins (GlLRP), a type I membrane protein, which shares the substrate N-terminal binding domain and a FXNPXY-type endocytic motif with human LRPs. Expression of tagged GlLRP showed that it was localized predominantly in the endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomal-like peripheral vacuoles and plasma membrane. However, the FXNPXY-deleted GlLRP was retained at the plasma membrane suggesting that it is abnormally transported and processed. The low-density lipoprotein and chylomicrons interacted with GlLRP, with this interaction being necessary for lipoprotein internalization and cell proliferation. Finally, we show that GlLRP binds directly to the medium subunit of Giardia adaptor protein 2, indicating that receptor-mediated internalization occurs through an adaptin mechanism.

Abstract
Cardiac dysfunction and mortality associated with trauma and sepsis increase with age. Mitochondria play a critical role in the energy demand of cardiac muscles, and thereby on the function of the heart. Specific molecular pathways responsible for mitochondrial functional alterations after injury in relation to aging are largely unknown. To further investigate this, 6- and 22-month-old rats were subjected to trauma-hemorrhage (T-H) or sham operation and euthanized following resuscitation. Left ventricular tissue was profiled using our custom rodent mitochondrial gene chip (RoMitochip). Our experiments demonstrated a declined left ventricular performance and decreased alteration in mitochondrial gene expression with age following T-H and we have identified c-Myc, a pleotropic transcription factor, to be the most upregulated gene in 6- and 22-month-old rats after T-H. Following T-H, while 142 probe sets were altered significantly (39 up and 103 down) in 6-month-old rats, only 66 were altered (30 up and 36 down) in 22-month-old rats; 36 probe sets (11 up and 25 down) showed the same trend in both groups. The expression of c-Myc and cardiac death promoting gene Bnip3 were increased, and Pgc1-α and Ppar-α a decreased following T-H. Eleven tRNA transcripts on mtDNA were upregulated following T-H in the aged animals, compared with the sham group. Our observations suggest a c-myc-regulated mitochondrial dysfunction following T-H injury and marked decrease in age-dependent changes in the transcriptional profile of mitochondrial genes following T-H, possibly indicating cellular senescence. To our knowledge, this is the first report on mitochondrial gene expression profile following T-H in relation to aging.

Abstract
Excessive production of free radicals by mitochondria is associated with, and likely contributes to, the progression of numerous pathological conditions. Nevertheless, the production of free radicals by the mitochondria may have important biological functions under normal or stressed conditions by activating or modulating redox-sensitive cellular signaling pathways. This raises the intriguing possibility that regulated mitochondrial free radical production occurs via mechanisms that are distinct from pathologies associated with oxidative damage. Indeed, the capacity of mitochondria to produce free radicals in a limited manner may play a role in ischemic preconditioning, the phenomenon whereby short bouts of ischemia protect from subsequent prolonged ischemia and reperfusion. Ischemic preconditioning can thus serve as an important model system for defining regulatory mechanisms that allow for transient, signal-inducing, production of free radicals by mitochondria. Defining how these mechanism(s) occur will provide insight into therapeutic approaches that minimize oxidative damage without altering normal cellular redox biology. The aim of this review is to present and discuss evidence for the regulated production of superoxide by the electron transport chain within the ischemic preconditioning paradigm of redox regulation.

Abstract
Flow-induced cytosolic Ca2+ Ca(i)2+ signaling in renal tubular epithelial cells is mediated in part through P2 receptor (P2R) activation by locally released ATP. The ability of P2R to regulate salt and water reabsorption has suggested a possible contribution of ATP release and paracrine P2R activation to cystogenesis and/or enlargement in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). We and others have demonstrated in human ADPKD cyst cells the absence of flow-induced Ca(i)2+ signaling exhibited by normal renal epithelial cells. We now extend these findings to primary and telomerase-immortalized normal and ADPKD epithelial cells of different genotype and of both proximal and distal origins. Flow-induced elevation of Ca(i)2+ concentration ([Ca2+](i)) was absent from ADPKD cyst cells, but in normal cells was mediated by flow-sensitive ATP release and paracrine P2R activation, modulated by ecto-nucleotidase activity, and abrogated by P2R inhibition or extracellular ATP hydrolysis. In contrast to the elevated ATP release from ADPKD cells in static isotonic conditions or in hypotonic conditions, flow-induced ATP release from cyst cells was lower than from normal cells. Extracellular ATP rapidly reduced thapsigargin-elevated [Ca2+](i) in both ADPKD cyst and normal cells, but cyst cells lacked the subsequent, slow, oxidized ATP-sensitive [Ca2+](i) recovery present in normal cells. Telomerase-immortalized cyst cells also exhibited altered CD39 and P2X7 mRNA levels. Thus the loss of flow-induced, P2R-mediated Ca(i)2+ signaling in human ADPKD cyst epithelial cells was accompanied by reduced flow-sensitive ATP release, altered purinergic regulation of store-operated Ca2+ entry, and altered expression of gene products controlling extracellular nucleotide signaling.

Abstract
We investigated the role of the mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K+(KATP) channel, the mitochondrial big-conductance Ca2+-activated K+(BKCa) channel, and the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) in the ouabain-induced increase of mitochondrial Ca2+in native rat ventricular myocytes by loading cells with rhod 2-AM. To overload mitochondrial Ca2+, we pretreated cells with ouabain before applying mitochondrial KATPor BKCachannel and/or MPTP opener. Ouabain (1 mM) increased the rhod 2-sensitive fluorescence intensity (160 ± 5.0% of control), which was dramatically decreased to the control level on application of diazoxide and NS-1619 in a dose-dependent manner (half-inhibition concentrations of 78.3 and 7.78 μM for diazoxide and NS-1619, respectively). This effect was reversed by selective inhibition of the mitochondrial KATPchannel by 5-hydroxydecanoate, the mitochondrial BKCachannel by paxilline, and the MPTP by cyclosporin A. Although diazoxide did not efficiently reduce mitochondrial Ca2+during prolonged exposure to ouabain, NS-1619 reduced mitochondrial Ca2+. These results suggest that although mitochondrial BKCaand KATPchannels contribute to reduction of ouabain-induced mitochondrial Ca2+overload, activation of the mitochondrial BKCachannel more efficiently reduces ouabain-induced mitochondrial Ca2+overload in our experimental model.

Abstract
c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK), a member of the MAPK family of protein kinases, is a stress-response kinase that is activated by proinflammatory cytokines and growth factors coupled to membrane receptors or through nonreceptor pathways by stimuli such as heat shock, UV irradiation, protein synthesis inhibitors, and conditions that elevate the levels of reactive oxygen intermediates (ROI). Ischemia followed by reperfusion or hypoxia with reoxygenation represents a condition of high oxidative stress where JNK activation is associated with elevated ROI. We recently demonstrated that the activation of JNK by this condition is initiated by ROI generated by mitochondrial electron transport and involves sequential activation of the proline-rich kinase 2 and the small GTP-binding factors Rac-1 and Cdc42. Here we present evidence that protein kinase C (PKC) and transforming growth factor-β-activated kinase-1 (TAK-1) are also components of this pathway. Inhibition of PKC with the broad-range inhibitor calphostin C, the PKC-α/β-selective inhibitor Go9367, or adenovirus-expressing dominant-negative PKC-α blocked the phosphorylation of proline-rich kinase 2 and JNK. Reoxygenation activated the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase, TAK-1, and promoted the formation of a complex containing Rac-1, TAK-1, and JNK but not apoptosis-stimulating kinase-1 or p21-activated kinase-1, which was detected within the first 10 min of reoxygenation. These results identify two new components, PKC and TAK-1, that have not been previously described in this signaling pathway.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) gene products polycystin-1 (PC1) and polycystin-2 (PC2) colocalize in the apical monocilia of renal epithelial cells. Mouse and human renal cells without PC1 protein show impaired ciliary mechanosensation, and this impairment has been proposed to promote cystogenesis. However, most cyst epithelia of human ADPKD kidneys appear to express full-length PC1 and PC2 in normal or increased abundance. We show that confluent primary ADPKD cyst cells with the novel PC1 mutation DeltaL2433 and with normal abundance of PC1 and PC2 polypeptides lack ciliary PC1 and often lack ciliary PC2, whereas PC1 and PC2 are both present in cilia of confluent normal human kidney (NK) epithelial cells in primary culture. Confluent NK cells respond to shear stress with transient increases in cytoplasmic Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)), dependent on both extracellular Ca(2+) and release from intracellular stores. In contrast, ADPKD cyst cells lack flow-sensitive [Ca(2+)](i) signaling and exhibit reduced endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) stores and store-depletion-operated Ca(2+) entry but retain near-normal [Ca(2+)](i) responses to ANG II and to vasopressin. Expression of wild-type and mutant CD16.7-PKD1(115-226) fusion proteins reveals within the COOH-terminal 112 amino acids of PC1 a coiled-coil domain-independent ciliary localization signal. However, the coiled-coil domain is required for CD16.7-PKD1(115-226) expression to accelerate decay of the flow-induced Ca(2+) signal in NK cells. These data provide evidence for ciliary dysfunction and polycystin mislocalization in human ADPKD cells with normal levels of PC1.

Abstract
During acute exacerbations of inflammatory bowel diseases, oxidants are generated through the interactions of bacteria in the lumen, activated granulocytes, and cells of the colon mucosa. In this study we explored the ability of one such class of oxidants, represented by monochloramine (NH(2)Cl), to serve as agonists of Ca(2+) and Zn(2+) accumulation within the colonocyte. Individual colon crypts prepared from Sprague-Dawley rats were mounted in perfusion chambers after loading with fluorescent reporters fura 2-AM and fluozin 3-AM. These reporters were characterized, in situ, for responsiveness to Ca(2+) and Zn(2+) in the cytoplasm. Responses to different concentrations of NH(2)Cl (50, 100, and 200 microM) were monitored. Subsequent studies were designed to identify the sources and mechanisms of NH(2)Cl-induced increases in Ca(2+) and Zn(2+) in the cytoplasm. Exposure to NH(2)Cl led to dose-dependent increases in intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in the range of 200-400 nM above baseline levels. Further studies indicated that NH(2)Cl-induced accumulation of Ca(2+) in the cytoplasm is the result of release from intracellular stores and basolateral entry of extracellular Ca(2+) through store-operated channels. In addition, exposure to NH(2)Cl resulted in dose-dependent and sustained increases in intracellular Zn(2+) concentration ([Zn(2+)](i)) in the nanomolar range. These alterations were neutralized by dithiothreitol, which shields intracellular thiol groups from oxidation. We conclude that Ca(2+)- and Zn(2+)-handling proteins are susceptible to oxidation by chloramines, leading to sustained, but not necessarily toxic, increases in [Ca(2+)](i) and [Zn(2+)](i). Under certain conditions, NH(2)Cl may act not as a toxin but as an agent that activates intracellular signaling pathways.

Abstract
C-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) is part of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family of signaling pathways that are induced in response to extracellular stimuli. JNK is primarily a stress-response pathway and can be activated by proinflammatory cytokines and growth factors coupled to membrane receptors or through non-receptor pathways by stimuli such as heat shock, UV irradiation, protein synthesis inhibitors, and conditions that elevate the levels of reactive oxygen intermediates (ROI). The molecular initiators of MAPKs by non-receptor stimuli have not been described. Ischemia followed by reperfusion or hypoxia with reoxygenation represents a condition of high oxidative stress where JNK activation is associated with elevated ROI. We show here that the activation of JNK by this condition is initiated in the mitochondria and requires coupled electron transport, ROI generation, and calcium flux. These signals cause the selective, sequential activation of the calcium-dependent, proline-rich kinase Pyk2 and the small GTP binding factors Rac-1 and Cdc42. Interruption of these interactions with inactivated dominant negative mutant proteins, blocking calcium flux, or inhibiting electron transport through mitochondrial complexes II, III, or IV prevents JNK activation and results in a proapoptotic phenotype that is characteristic of JNK inhibition in this model of ischemia-reperfusion. The signaling pathway is unique for the reoxygenation stimulus and provides a framework for other non-receptor-mediated pathways of MAPK activation.

Abstract
Cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is accompanied by intracellular acidification that can lead to cytosolic and mitochondrial calcium overload. However, the effect of cytosolic acidification on mitochondrial pH (pHm) and mitochondrial Ca2+(Cam2+) handling is not well understood. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that changes in pHmduring cytosolic acidification can modulate Cam2+handling in cardiac mitochondria. pHmwas measured in permeabilized rat ventricular myocytes with the use of confocal microscopy and the pH-sensitive fluorescent probe carboxyseminaphthorhodafluor-1. The contributions of the mitochondrial Na+/H+exchanger (NHEm) and the K+/H+exchanger (KHEm) to pHmregulation were evaluated using acidification and recovery protocols to mimic the changes in pH observed during I/R. Cam2+transport in isolated mitochondria was measured using spectrophotometry and fluorimetry, and the mitochondrial membrane potential was measured using a tetraphenylphosphonium electrode. Cytosolic acidification (pH 6.8) resulted in acidification of mitochondria. The degree of mitochondrial acidification and recovery was found to be largely dependent on the activity of the KHEm. However, the NHEmwas observed to contribute to the recovery of pHmfollowing acidification in K+-free solutions as well as the maintenance of pHmduring respiratory inhibition. Acidification resulted in mitochondrial depolarization and a decrease in the rate of net Cam2+uptake, whereas restoration of pH following acidification increased Cam2+uptake. These findings are consistent with an important role for cytosolic acidification in determining pHmand Cam2+handling in cardiac mitochondria under conditions of Ca2+overload. Consequently, interventions that alter pHmcan limit Cam2+overload and injury during I/R.

Abstract
Altered Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX) protein expression or activity is thought to contribute to various aspects of cardiac pathology. In guinea pig ventricular myocytes, NCX-mediated Ca(2+) entry is almost entirely responsible for Ca(2+) overload during hypoxia-reoxygenation. Because Ca(2+) overload is a common initiator of apoptosis, the purpose of this study was to test the hypotheses that NCX activity is critically involved in initiating apoptosis after hypoxia-reoxygenation and that hypoxia-reoxygenation-induced apoptosis can be modulated by changes in NCX protein expression or activity. An NCX antisense oligonucleotide was used to reduce NCX protein expression in cultured adult guinea pig ventricular myocytes. Caspase-3 activation and cytochrome c release were used as markers of apoptosis. Hypoxia-reoxygenation-induced apoptosis was significantly decreased in antisense-treated myocytes compared with untreated control or nonsense-treated myocytes. Pretreatment of cultured myocytes for 24 h with either endothelin-1 or phenylephrine was found to increase both NCX protein expression and evoked NCX activity as well as enhance hypoxia-reoxygenation-induced apoptosis. Control experiments demonstrated that endothelin-1 and phenylephrine did not induce apoptosis on their own nor did they enhance the apoptotic response in a model of Ca(2+)-dependent, NCX-independent apoptosis. Additional control experiments demonstrated that the NCX antisense oligonucleotide did not alter the apoptotic response of myocytes to either H(2)O(2) or isoproterenol. Taken together, these data suggest that the NCX has a critical and specific role in the initiation of apoptosis after hypoxia-reoxygenation in guinea pig myocytes and that hypoxia-reoxygenation-induced apoptosis is quite sensitive to changes in NCX activity.

Abstract
Aspartyl protease inhibitors (APIs) effectively extend the length and quality of life in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients, but dose-limiting side effects such as lipodystrophy, insulin resistance, and diarrhea have limited their clinical utility. Here, we show that the API nelfinavir induces a secretory form of diarrhea in HIV-infected patients. In vitro studies demonstrate that nelfinavir potentiates muscarinic stimulation of Cl(-) secretion by T84 human intestinal cell monolayers through amplification and prolongation of an apical membrane Ca(2+)-dependent Cl(-) conductance. This stimulated ion secretion is associated with increased magnitude and duration of muscarinically induced intracellular Ca(2+) transients via activation of a long-lived, store-operated Ca(2+) entry pathway. The enhanced intracellular Ca(2+) signal is associated with uncoupling of the Cl(-) conductance from downregulatory intracellular mediators generated normally by muscarinic activation. These data show that APIs modulate Ca(2+) signaling in secretory epithelial cells and identify a novel target for treatment of clinically important API side effects.

Abstract
Pancreatic duct cells express a Ca2+-activated Cl- conductance (CaCC), upregulation of which may be beneficial to patients with cystic fibrosis. Here, we report that HPAF, a human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cell line that expresses CaCC, develops into a high-resistance, anion-secreting epithelium. Mucosal ATP (50 microM) caused a fourfold increase in short-circuit current (Isc), a hyperpolarization of transepithelial potential difference (from -4.9 +/- 0.73 to -8.5 +/- 0.84 mV), and a fall in resistance to less than one-half of resting values. The effects of ATP were inhibited by mucosal niflumic acid (100 microM), implicating an apical CaCC in the response. RT-PCR indicated expression of hClC-2, hClC-3, and hClC-5, but surprisingly not hCLCA-1 or hCLCA-2. K+ channel activity was necessary to maintain the ATP-stimulated Isc. Using a pharmacological approach, we found evidence for two types of K+ channels in the mucosal and serosal membranes of HPAF cells, one activated by chlorzoxazone (500 microM) and sensitive to clotrimazole (30 microM), as well as one blocked by clofilium (100 microM) but not chromanol 293B (5 microM). RT-PCR indicated expression of the Ca2+-activated K+ channel KCNN4, as well as the acid-sensitive, four transmembrane domain, two pore K+ channel, KCNK5 (hTASK-2). Western blot analysis verified the expression of CLC channels, as well as KCNK5. We conclude that HPAF will be a useful model system for studying channels pertinent to anion secretion in human pancreatic duct cells.

Abstract
Exacerbation of hypoxic injury after restoration of oxygenation (reoxygenation) is an important mechanism of cellular injury in transplantation and in myocardial, hepatic, intestinal, cerebral, renal, and other ischemic syndromes. Cellular hypoxia and reoxygenation are two essential elements of ischemia-reperfusion injury. Activated neutrophils contribute to vascular reperfusion injury, yet posthypoxic cellular injury occurs in the absence of inflammatory cells through mechanisms involving reactive oxygen (ROS) or nitrogen species (RNS). Xanthine oxidase (XO) produces ROS in some reoxygenated cells, but other intracellular sources of ROS are abundant, and XO is not required for reoxygenation injury. Hypoxic or reoxygenated mitochondria may produce excess superoxide (O) and release H(2)O(2), a diffusible long-lived oxidant that can activate signaling pathways or react vicinally with proteins and lipid membranes. This review focuses on the specific roles of ROS and RNS in the cellular response to hypoxia and subsequent cytolytic injury during reoxygenation.

Abstract
With the use of markers of sarcolemmal membrane permeability, cardiomyocyte models of ischemic injury have primarily addressed necrotic death during ischemia. In the present study, we used annexin V-propidium iodide staining to examine apoptosis and necrosis after simulated ischemia and simulated reperfusion in rat ventricular myocytes. Annexin V binds phosphatidylserine, a phosphoaminolipid thought to be externalized during apoptosis or programmed cell death. Propidium iodide is a marker of cell necrosis. Under baseline conditions, <1% of cardiomyocytes stained positive for annexin V. After 20 or 60 min of simulated ischemia, there was no increase in annexin V staining, although 60-min simulated ischemia resulted in significant propidium iodide staining. Twenty minutes of simulated ischemia, followed by 20 or 60 min of simulated reperfusion, resulted in 8-10% of myocytes staining positive for annexin V. Annexin V-positive cells retained both rod-shaped morphology and contractile function but exhibited the decreased cell width indicative of cell shrinkage. Baseline mitochondrial free Ca2+ (111 +/- 14 nM) was elevated in reperfused annexin V-negative cells (214 +/- 22 nM), and further elevated in annexin V-positive myocytes (382 +/- 9 nM). After 60 min of simulated reperfusion, caspase-3-like activity was observed in approximately 3% of myocytes, which had a rounded appearance and membrane blebs. These results suggest that the use of annexin V after simulated ischemia-reperfusion uncovers a population of cardiomyocytes whose characteristics appear to be consistent with cells undergoing apoptosis.

Abstract
This study investigated the role of the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX) in regulating cytosolic intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) during anoxia/reoxygenation in guinea pig ventricular myocytes. The hypothesis that the NCX is the predominant mechanism mediating [Ca2+]i overload in this model was tested through inhibition of NCX expression by an antisense oligonucleotide. Immunocytochemistry revealed that this antisense oligonucleotide, directed at the area around the start site of the guinea pig NCX1, specifically reduced NCX expression in cultured adult myocytes by 90 +/- 4%. Antisense treatment inhibited evoked NCX activity by 94 +/- 3% and decreased the rise in [Ca2+]i during anoxia/reoxygenation by 95 +/- 3%. These data suggest that NCX is the predominant mechanism mediating Ca2+ overload during anoxia/reoxygenation in guinea-pig ventricular myocytes.

Abstract
Mitochondrial membrane potential (DeltaPsi(m)) is severely compromised in the myocardium after ischemia-reperfusion and triggers apoptotic events leading to cell demise. This study tests the hypothesis that mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K(+) (mitoK(ATP)) channel activation prevents the collapse of DeltaPsi(m) in myocytes during anoxia-reoxygenation (A-R) and is responsible for cell protection via inhibition of apoptosis. After 3-h anoxia and 2-h reoxygenation, the cultured myocytes underwent extensive damage, as evidenced by decreased cell viability, compromised membrane permeability, increased apoptosis, and decreased ATP concentration. Mitochondria in A-R myocytes were swollen and fuzzy as shown after staining with Mito Tracker Orange CMTMRos and in an electron microscope and exhibited a collapsed DeltaPsi(m), as monitored by 5,5',6,6'-tetrachloro-1,1',3,3'-tetraethylbenzimidazolcarbocyanine iodide (JC-1). Cytochrome c was released from mitochondria into the cytosol as demonstrated by cytochrome c immunostaining. Activation of mitoK(ATP) channel with diazoxide (100 micromol/l) resulted in a significant protection against mitochondrial damage, ATP depletion, cytochrome c loss, and stabilized DeltaPsi(m). This protection was blocked by 5-hydroxydecanoate (500 micromol/l), a mitoK(ATP) channel-selective inhibitor, but not by HMR-1098 (30 micromol/l), a putative sarcolemmal K(ATP) channel-selective inhibitor. Dissipation of DeltaPsi(m) also leads to opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pore, which was prevented by cyclosporin A. The data support the hypothesis that A-R disrupts DeltaPsi(m) and induces apoptosis, which are prevented by the activation of the mitoK(ATP) channel. This further emphasizes the therapeutic significance of mitoK(ATP) channel agonists in the prevention of ischemia-reperfusion cell injury.

Abstract
The mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) is implicated in cardiac reperfusion/reoxygenation injury. In isolated ventricular myocytes, the sulfhydryl (SH) group modifier and MPT inducer phenylarsine oxide (PAO) caused MPT, severe hypercontracture, and irreversible membrane injury associated with increased cytoplasmic free [Ca(2+)]. Removal of extracellular Ca(2+) or depletion of nonmitochondrial Ca(2+) pools did not prevent these effects, whereas the MPT inhibitor cyclosporin A was partially protective and the SH-reducing agent dithiothreitol fully protective. In permeabilized myocytes, PAO caused hypercontracture at much lower free [Ca(2+)] than in its absence. Thus PAO induced hypercontracture by both increasing myofibrillar Ca(2+) sensitivity and promoting mitochondrial Ca(2+) efflux during MPT. Hypercontracture did not directly cause irreversible membrane injury because lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release was not prevented by abolishing hypercontracture with 2,3-butanedione monoxime. However, loading myocytes with the membrane-permeable Ca(2+) chelator 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid-acetoxymethyl ester (BAPTA-AM) prevented PAO-induced LDH release, thus implicating the PAO-induced rise in cytoplasmic [Ca(2+)] as obligatory for irreversible membrane injury. In conclusion, PAO induces MPT and enhanced susceptibility to hypercontracture in isolated cardiac myocytes, both key features also implicated in cardiac reperfusion and reoxygenation injury.

Abstract
We studied the interplay between matrix Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)]) and mitochondrial membrane potential (Deltapsi) in regulation of the mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) during anoxia and reoxygenation. Without Ca(2+) loading, anoxia caused near-synchronous Deltapsi dissipation, mitochondrial Ca(2+) efflux, and matrix volume shrinkage when a critically low PO(2) was reached, which was rapidly reversible upon reoxygenation. These changes were related to electron transport inhibition, not MPT. Cyclosporin A-sensitive MPT did occur when extramitochondrial [Ca(2+)] was increased to promote significant Ca(2+) uptake during anoxia, depending on the Ca(2+) load size and ability to maintain Deltapsi. However, when [Ca(2+)] was increased after complete Deltapsi dissipation, MPT did not occur until reoxygenation, at which time reactivation of electron transport led to partial Deltapsi regeneration. In the setting of elevated extramitochondrial Ca(2+), this enhanced matrix Ca(2+) uptake while promoting MPT because of less than full recovery of Deltapsi. The interplay between Deltapsi and matrix [Ca(2+)] in accelerating or inhibiting MPT during anoxia/reoxygenation has implications for preventing reoxygenation injury associated with MPT.

Abstract
1. Mitochondrial dysfunction, secondary to excessive accumulation of Ca2+, has been implicated in cardiac injury. We here examined the action of potassium channel openers on mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis, as these cardioprotective ion channel modulators have recently been shown to target a mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K+ channel. 2. In isolated cardiac mitochondria, diazoxide and pinacidil decreased the rate and magnitude of Ca2+ uptake into the mitochondrial matrix with an IC50 of 65 and 128 microM, respectively. At all stages of Ca2+ uptake, the potassium channel openers depolarized the mitochondrial membrane thereby reducing Ca2+ influx through the potential-dependent mitochondrial uniporter. 3. Diazoxide and pinacidil, in a concentration-dependent manner, also activated release of Ca2+ from mitochondria. This was prevented by cyclosporin A, an inhibitor of Ca2+ release through the mitochondrial permeability transition pore. 4. Replacement of extramitochondrial K+ with mannitol abolished the effects of diazoxide and pinacidil on mitochondrial Ca2+, while the K+ ionophore valinomycin mimicked the effects of the potassium channel openers. 5. ATP and ADP, which block K+ flux through mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K+ channels, inhibited the effects of potassium channel openers, without preventing the action of valinomycin. 6. In intact cardiomyocytes, diazoxide also induced mitochondrial depolarization and decreased mitochondrial Ca2+ content. These effects were inhibited by the mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K+ channel blocker 5-hydroxydecanoic acid. 7. Thus, potassium channel openers prevent mitochondrial Ca2+ overload by reducing the driving force for Ca2+ uptake and by activating cyclosporin-sensitive Ca2+ release. In this regard, modulators of an ATP-sensitive mitochondrial K+ conductance may contribute to the maintenance of mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis.
