The effect of inorganic orthophosphate (Pi) on iron-induced lipid peroxidation in non-respiring rat liver mitochondria was studied and compared with that of adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP) at pH 7.4. Under the experimental conditions used, lipid peroxidation was induced by Fe2+ in conjunction with Pi and/or ADP, but not by Fe2+ alone. The characteristics of Fe(2+)-induced lipid peroxidation supported by Pi and by ADP were different: ADP-supported peroxidation took place after a lag-time and proceeded until all the O2 in the incubation medium was consumed, whereas the Pi-supported peroxidation exhibited a longer lag-time and a higher rate, but stopped when half the O2 was consumed. These features were ascribed to the fact that Pi forms active iron-oxygen complexes more rapidly than ADP, but the lifetimes of these complexes are less than those of the complexes with ADP. Furthermore, the ability of Pi to form active iron-oxygen complexes was found to be less than that of ADP. Fe2+, in conjunction with Pi and/or ADP, was found to induce lipid peroxidation in respiring mitochondria, although to a lesser extent than in non-respiring mitochondria.

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.

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
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.
