Effect of furosemide on mitochondrial electron transport system and oxidative phosphorylation. 1983

Y Orita, and Y Fukuhara, and M Yanase, and A Ando, and N Okada, and H Abe

The effects of furosemide on the mitochondrial electron transport system and on oxidative phosphorylation were explored. Furosemide above the concentration of 2 X 10(-3) mol/l was found to inhibit state 3 (ADP-dependent) respiration of the rat liver, renal cortex, renal medulla mitochondria. State 4 (resting) respiration was not affected by furosemide. Furosemide above the concentration of 7.5 X 10(-6) mol/l (substrate: glutamate-malate), and above 5 X 10(-6) mol/l (substrate: succinate) inhibited the respiration of rat liver mitochondria released by 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzylidenemalononitrile (SF 6847). This fact exactly indicates that furosemide inhibits the electron transport system in mitochondria. Furosemide at the concentration of 4 X 10(-3) mol/l inhibited the activities of NADH cytochrome c reductase and succinate cytochrome c reductase in sonicated mitochondrial subparticles of beef heart by 78.2% and 79.2% of control, respectively.

D008928 Mitochondria Semiautonomous, self-reproducing organelles that occur in the cytoplasm of all cells of most, but not all, eukaryotes. Each mitochondrion is surrounded by a double limiting membrane. The inner membrane is highly invaginated, and its projections are called cristae. Mitochondria are the sites of the reactions of oxidative phosphorylation, which result in the formation of ATP. They contain distinctive RIBOSOMES, transfer RNAs (RNA, TRANSFER); AMINO ACYL T RNA SYNTHETASES; and elongation and termination factors. Mitochondria depend upon genes within the nucleus of the cells in which they reside for many essential messenger RNAs (RNA, MESSENGER). Mitochondria are believed to have arisen from aerobic bacteria that established a symbiotic relationship with primitive protoeukaryotes.

D010084 Oxidation-Reduction A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471). Redox,Oxidation Reduction
D010085 Oxidative Phosphorylation Electron transfer through the cytochrome system liberating free energy which is transformed into high-energy phosphate bonds. Phosphorylation, Oxidative,Oxidative Phosphorylations,Phosphorylations, Oxidative
D010101 Oxygen Consumption The rate at which oxygen is used by a tissue; microliters of oxygen STPD used per milligram of tissue per hour; the rate at which oxygen enters the blood from alveolar gas, equal in the steady state to the consumption of oxygen by tissue metabolism throughout the body.
