Why does NADH yield more ATP than FADH2?
Because NADH is oxidized by complex I and protons are generated whereas FADH2 enters the pathway further down at complex II and generates 4 less protons
What effect does rotenone have on ox phos?
Inhibits complex I and blocks e* transfer and also effects p-ways that require NAD(TCA cycle) because NADH is no longer being reduced
Other inhibitors of ox phos include?
MACO
Malonate II, Anitmycin A III, Cynaide IV, Oligomycin V or atp synthase

Carbon monoxide also inhibts complex 4
What other way can ox phos be inhibited?
By uncoupling proteins or agents. 2,4-DNP and thermogenin
How do brown and white adipose tissue?
Brown tissue is more prevalent in infants and is loaded with mitochondria which is repsonible for generating heat "non-shivering" type. White has considerably less mitochondria
What role do ROS play in the body?
There is a delicate balance between their action in cell defense, antioxidants, enzymes and as free radicals.
Is oxidative phosphorylation a major site of ROS production?
Yes
What are sources of free radicals?
Coenzyme Q
Peroxisome
NADPH oxidase
Myeloperoxidase
Ionizeing Radiation
What are free radicals?
Superoxide
OH*
OONO*
NO*
Which free radical can act as neurotransmitter in normal state?
Nitric Oxide
What problems can be associated with ROS overproduction?
Protein, Membrane, DNA, Mt Damage, Lipid peroxidation, Cell swelling, INflux Ca, Na, H2O cell swells

Know lipid and DNA damage..... can result in base pair change and possible mutation
Nitric oxide normal functions as NT, Hormone, Muscle contraction, signal transduction molecule but can be deleterious if overproduced. what pway results in NO produciton?
Arginine -> Citrulline
NO is byproduct of rxn
NO synthase is involved
ROS are us in normal defense of what and pway used to produce?
Oxygen is used by NADPH oxidase to reduce it to NADP resulting in O*

Neutrophils use this byproduct to neutralize bacteria by with produciton of ONO
If a patient is deficient in NADPH oxidase possible consequences?
Chronic Granulomous Disease CGD
NADPH Oxidase Deficiency
Name antioxidant enzymes?
Super Oxide Dismutase, Catalase, Glutathione reductase, Glutathione Peroxidase, Viatmin E
what occcurs during MI on molecular level?
Loss of ox-phos, ^lactic acid, dec. ATP, dec. adenine nucleotide (Purine degrad. pway), ^calcium
How does reperfusion injury result?
Upon return of Oxygen the ox phos pway is overloaded and large increase of ROS produced.

Inhib. of ox-phos allows ubiquinone to form ubisemiubiauinone

Mt perm. transition pore (MPTP) opens serving as uncoupler AND also allows cyt C to leak out of the mitochondria (APOPTOSIS)
How does mt DNA differ from nuclear DNA?
Lacks histones, repair system, and has 10x mutation rate.
Maternal Inheritance
Mt myopathies include what clinical manifestations?
Drooping eyelids, muscel weakness, GI upset, Liver failure, cardiomyopathy, and nervous system involvement (seizure, tremor, dementia).
What happens when the ETC is decreased?
Pyruvate and FA accumulate, Lactate acidosis, accum. TG, ATP syn decreased (muscle weakness, exercise tolerance, formation of ragged red fibers, due to increased mt proliferation
What complex is affected in Leber's heriditary optic neuropathy (LHON)?
COMPLEX I (point mutatn)
Pt presents with loss of vision (optic nerve death)

Muscle biopsy normal

NO ragged red fibers
What syndrome is inherited via a mutation in ATPase, severe clinical presentation at 1-2 yrs, with dev. delay, hypotonia, ataxia, spasticity, and respiratory defects?
MILS- Maternally inherited leigh's syndrome
What condition presents with MERRF? Onset in early childhood or adult. Muscles have RRF and are COX deficient. Most frequent mutations occurs in the lysine tRNA gene?
MERRF= Myoclonus Epilepsy with Ragged Red Fibers


Myoclonus siezures cerebellar ataxia, myopathy
Mt myopathies include what clinical manifestations?
Drooping eyelids, muscel weakness, GI upset, Liver failure, cardiomyopathy, and nervous system involvement (seizure, tremor, dementia).
What happens when the ETC is decreased?
Pyruvate and FA accumulate, Lactate acidosis, accum. TG, ATP syn decreased (muscle weakness, exercise tolerance, formation of ragged red fibers, due to increased mt proliferation
What complex is affected in Leber's heriditary optic neuropathy (LHON)?
COMPLEX I (point mutatn)
Pt presents with loss of vision (optic nerve death)

Muscle biopsy normal

NO ragged red fibers
What syndrome is inherited via a mutation in ATPase, severe clinical presentation at 1-2 yrs, with dev. delay, hypotonia, ataxia, spasticity, and respiratory defects?
MILS- Maternally inherited leigh's syndrome
What condition presents with MERRF? Onset in early childhood or adult. Muscles have RRF and are COX deficient. Most frequent mutations occurs in the lysine tRNA gene?
MERRF= Myoclonus Epilepsy with Ragged Red Fibers


Myoclonus siezures cerebellar ataxia, myopathy
What symptoms are linked with Parkinsons disease?
Bradykinesia, rigidity, tremor, degeneration of dopaminergic neurons. Primary substantia nigra ars compacta (SNc)
What chemical when administered to people would result in Parkinson's like symptoms?
MPTP
What results can oxidative stress have on SNc?
Dopamine oxidation H2O2 and ROS

Reason SNC most severe damage
Cell death results from increased dopamine turnover, deficiency of glutathione, increased in reactive Fe, and greater production of ROS due to complex I defeciency
What does the free radical insuate about Parkinson's disease cuasuality?
30-40% reduction in complx I actvity
PD results in defect in mt genome

PD pt show selecitve decrease in glutathione (result of lewy bodies)
What is usually found in PD pt to suggest oxidative damage?
Lipid peroxidation found in SNc but not cerebellum, protein arbonyls increased, 8-hydroxy-2-d-guanosine found within PD pt (DNA adduct), decreased glutathione activity, SNc dopaminergic neurons are rich in glutmate R, increase in intracell Ca activates NO sythase to from NO
NO plus superoxide forms peroxynitrite ONOO & OH
NO damages ETC and no GSH to prevent SNc
MPTP toxicity is lowwered in NOS KO mice
What complex does rotenone effect?
complex I mimics Parkinson's disease so used in induction of models
