Mitochondrial and cytosolic glutathione after depletion by phorone in isolated hepatocytes. 1984

F J Romero, and S Soboll, and H Sies

The glutathione content of cytosol and mitochondria of isolated hepatocytes was depleted by addition of a low concentration of phorone (0.5 mM) by 75% and 40% respectively. Different rates of replenishment indicate metabolic separation of cytosolic and mitochondrial glutathione pools. The release from hepatocytes occurred at a rate of about 8 nmol/g wet weight/min, both in controls and after phorone depletion.

D008930 Mitochondria, Liver Mitochondria in hepatocytes. As in all mitochondria, there are an outer membrane and an inner membrane, together creating two separate mitochondrial compartments: the internal matrix space and a much narrower intermembrane space. In the liver mitochondrion, an estimated 67% of the total mitochondrial proteins is located in the matrix.
