Stimulation of mitochondrial respiration by physiological concentrations of Ca2+ was studied to determine which components of oxidative phosphorylation are affected by Ca2+. The kinetic dependence of the respiratory chain, phosphorylation subsystem and proton leak on the mitochondrial membrane potential in isolated rat heart mitochondria respiring on 2-oxoglutarate or succinate was measured at two different concentrations of external free Ca2+. The results show that proton leak is not directly affected by Ca2+, but that both the respiratory and phosphorylation systems can be directly stimulated by Ca2+ depending on conditions. Although Ca2+ directly stimulates the phosphorylation system, this has relatively little effect on respiration rate with 2-oxoglutarate in States 3 and 4 because the subsystem has little control over respiration. However, in intermediate states, the phosphorylation system has greater control and Ca2+ stimulation of this system contributes substantially to the stimulation of respiration and phosphorylation. In the case of succinate oxidation neither the respiratory subsystem nor the phosphorylation system is stimulated by Ca2+.

The action of the creatine analogue beta-guanidinopropionic acid (beta-GPA) was examined in rat heart mitochondria and in isolated cardiomyocytes or fibres which were permeabilized with the non-ionic detergent saponin to determine the kinetics of mitochondrial creatine kinase for beta-GPA. Fibres and myocytes were subjected to increasing [ADP] in the presence and absence of beta-GPA or creatine, whereas isolated mitochondria received a similar protocol with increasing [ATP]. In isolated mitochondria given ATP, there was a stimulation of respiration by creatine, but no significant stimulation of respiration by beta-GPA. Further studies on fibres from control and beta-GPA-fed rats also found that beta-GPA is not utilized by the mitochondria, as evidenced by a lack of beta-GPA-stimulated respiration (Km for ADP = 142 +/- 23 microM) compared with control (Km for ADP from 161 +/- 23 microM), but no significant change in Vmax. Therefore the rat heart mitochondria are not responsive to beta-GPA as compared with creatine. Interestingly, the fibres from beta-GPA-fed rats had no creatine- or beta-GPA-stimulated respiration (Km for ADP = 57.3 +/- 7.2 microM for control, 54.2 +/- 7.2 microM with creatine, and 53.5 +/- 7.8 microM with beta-GPA). The mitochondria prepared from the hearts of rats exposed for 10 weeks to 1% beta-GPA in their diet had a significant decrease in Vmax. and a significant decrease in Km for ADP. Thus the hearts from beta-GPA-fed animals may be pathologic, due to a disruption of the creatine kinase energy circuit.

Deterioration of the contractile parameters of the heart muscle caused by ischemia and followed reperfusion is known as the main postoperative complication which is related to Ca 2+ and Na + overload in cardiomyocytes and mitochondria. Pinacidil reduced the overload in ischemia/reperfusion experiments. The mechanism of this phenomenon is still not clear. We hypothesized that increased ion permeability of the inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM) followed drop of electrochemical potential (ΔΨ mito ) can reduce the calcium. The aim of the study was to elucidate the effect of pinacidil (100 μM) and Ca 2+ (100 μM ) on swelling, oxygen consumption and ΔΨ mito of isolated sodium-loaded rat heart mitochondria (RHM(Na)) energized glutamate and malate. Pinacidil significantly enchanced the permeability of IMM to protons in ammonium nitrate medium. Also increased swelling of RHM(Na) energized with substrates in potassium acetate medium revealed that pinacidil increased potassium transport into matrix. Pinacidil stimulated oxygen consumption of RHM(Na) in State 4 and detained Ca 2+ -induced dissipation of ΔΨ mito . Under condition of Ca 2+ and Na + overload simulating ischemia/reperfusion, RHM(Na) oxygen consumption was not affected with pinacidil in State 3 and in the presence of 2,4-dinitrophenol. Cyclosporin A and ADP, the inhibitors of mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP), markedly decreased Ca 2+ - induced swelling of RHM(Na) in nitrate ammonium or potassium acetate medium in the presence of pinacidil. Carboxyatractyloside, an inhibitor of cytosolic side-specific adenine nucleotide translocase, eliminated a pinacidil-stimulated oxygen consumption of succinate-energized RHMNa in State 4 regardless of the presence of Ca 2+ . Pinacidil was also concluded to accelerat potassium flux into energized RHM(Na) and promot MPTP opening in the low conduction state. Based on our data we suggested that the effect of pharmacological preconditioning induced by pinacidil could be due to it’s direct effect on mitochondria which is connected with above stimulation of the potassium permeability of the inner mitochondrial membrane and following reduce of the ΔΨ mito that thus prevent calcium overload of cardiomyocytes after ischemia/reperfusion in turn.
