Mitochondrial Uncoupling Proteins (UCP1-UCP3) and Adenine Nucleotide Translocase (ANT1) Enhance the Protonophoric Action of 2,4-Dinitrophenol in Mitochondria and Planar Bilayer Membranes.

Abstract
2,4-Dinitrophenol (DNP) is a classic uncoupler of oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria which is still used in “diet pills”, despite its high toxicity and lack of antidotes. DNP increases the proton current through pure lipid membranes, similar to other chemical uncouplers. However, the molecular mechanism of its action in the mitochondria is far from being understood. The sensitivity of DNP’s uncoupling action in mitochondria to carboxyatractyloside, a specific inhibitor of adenine nucleotide translocase (ANT), suggests the involvement of ANT and probably other mitochondrial proton-transporting proteins in the DNP’s protonophoric activity. To test this hypothesis, we investigated the contribution of recombinant ANT1 and the uncoupling proteins UCP1-UCP3 to DNP-mediated proton leakage using the well-defined model of planar bilayer lipid membranes. All four proteins significantly enhanced the protonophoric effect of DNP. Notably, only long-chain free fatty acids were previously shown to be co-factors of UCPs and ANT1. Using site-directed mutagenesis and molecular dynamics simulations, we showed that arginine 79 of ANT1 is crucial for the DNP-mediated increase of membrane conductance, implying that this amino acid participates in DNP binding to ANT1.

Abstract
The effect of pinacidil was studied on calcium-loaded rat heart mitochondria (RHM) in the presence of succinate and rotenone. In experiments with pinacidil, the swelling of these mitochondria increased in media with NH4NO3 or K-acetate, but the inner membrane potential (ΔΨmito) and the respiration in 3 or 2,4-dinitrophenol-stimulated states of these organelles decreased due to the opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) in their inner membrane. These effects were inhibited by cyclosporin A and ADP. It was concluded that the protective effect of pinacidil in the cardiac muscle under ischemia/reperfusion may be associated with both the stimulation of mitochondrial swelling and a decrease in RHM calcium overload resulted in ΔΨmito fall due to mild uncoupling effect of pinacidil.

Abstract
A substantial body of evidence indicates that pharmacological activation of mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channels (mKATP) in the heart is protective in conditions associated with ischemia/reperfusion injury. Several mechanisms have been postulated to be responsible for cardioprotection, including the modulation of mitochondrial respiratory function. The aim of the present study was to characterize the dose-dependent effects of novel synthetic benzopyran analogues, derived from a BMS-191095, a selective mKATP opener, on mitochondrial respiration and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in isolated rat heart mitochondria. Mitochondrial respiratory function was assessed by high-resolution respirometry, and H2O2 production was measured by the Amplex Red fluorescence assay. Four compounds, namely KL-1487, KL-1492, KL-1495, and KL-1507, applied in increasing concentrations (50, 75, 100, and 150 μmol/L, respectively) were investigated. When added in the last two concentrations, all compounds significantly increased State 2 and 4 respiratory rates, an effect that was not abolished by 5-hydroxydecanoate (5-HD, 100 μmol/L), the classic mKATP inhibitor. The highest concentration also elicited an important decrease of the oxidative phosphorylation in a K+ independent manner. Both concentrations of 100 and 150 μmol/L for KL-1487, KL-1492, and KL-1495, and the concentration of 150 μmol/L for KL-1507, respectively, mitigated the mitochondrial H2O2 release. In isolated rat heart mitochondria, the novel benzopyran analogues act as protonophoric uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation and decrease the generation of reactive oxygen species in a dose-dependent manner.

Abstract
The field of mitochondrial ion channels has recently seen substantial progress, including the molecular identification of some of the channels. An integrative approach using genetics, electrophysiology, pharmacology, and cell biology to clarify the roles of these channels has thus become possible. It is by now clear that many of these channels are important for energy supply by the mitochondria and have a major impact on the fate of the entire cell as well. The purpose of this review is to provide an up-to-date overview of the electrophysiological properties, molecular identity, and pathophysiological functions of the mitochondrial ion channels studied so far and to highlight possible therapeutic perspectives based on current information.

Abstract
Diazoxide, a mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium (mitoK(ATP)) channel opener, protects the heart from ischemia-reperfusion injury. Diazoxide also inhibits mitochondrial complex II-dependent respiration in addition to its preconditioning effect. However, there are no prior studies of the role of diazoxide on post-ischemic myocardial oxygenation. In the current study, we determined the effect of diazoxide on the suppression of post-ischemic myocardial tissue hyperoxygenation in vivo, superoxide (O(2)(-*)) generation in isolated mitochondria, and impairment of the interaction between complex II and complex III in purified mitochondrial proteins. It was observed that diazoxide totally suppressed the post-ischemic myocardial hyperoxygenation. With succinate but not glutamate/malate as the substrate, diazoxide significantly increased ubisemiquinone-dependent O(2)(-*) generation, which was not blocked by 5-HD and glibenclamide. Using a model system, the super complex of succinate-cytochrome c reductase (SCR) hosting complex II and complex III, we also observed that diazoxide impaired complex II and its interaction with complex III with no effect on complex III. UV-visible spectral analysis revealed that diazoxide decreased succinate-mediated ferricytochrome b reduction in SCR. In conclusion, our results demonstrated that diazoxide suppressed the in vivo post-ischemic myocardial hyperoxygenation through opening the mitoK(ATP) channel and ubisemiquinone-dependent O(2)(-*) generation via inhibiting mitochondrial complex II-dependent respiration.

Abstract
Mitochondrial (m) KATP channel opening has been implicated in triggering cardiac preconditioning. Its consequence on mitochondrial respiration, however, remains unclear. We investigated the effects of two different KATP channel openers and antagonists on mitochondrial respiration under two different energetic conditions. Oxygen consumption was measured for complex I (pyruvate/malate) or complex II (succinate with rotenone) substrates in mitochondria from fresh guinea pig hearts. One of two mKATP channel openers, pinacidil or diazoxide, was given before adenosine diphosphate in the absence or presence of an mKATP channel antagonist, glibenclamide or 5-hydroxydecanoate. Without ATP synthase inhibition, both mKATP channel openers differentially attenuated mitochondrial respiration. Neither mKATP channel antagonist abolished these effects. When ATP synthase was inhibited by oligomycin to decrease [ATP], both mKATP channel openers accelerated respiration for both substrate groups. This was abolished by mKATP channel blockade. Thus, under energetically more physiological conditions, the main effect of mKATP channel openers on mitochondrial respiration is differential inhibition independent of mKATP channel opening. In contrast, under energetically less physiological conditions, mKATP channel opening can be evidenced by accelerated respiration and blockade by antagonists. Therefore, the effects of mKATP channel openers on mitochondrial function likely depend on the experimental conditions and the cell's underlying energetic state.

Abstract
Both ATP-regulated (mitoK(ATP)) and large conductance calcium-activated (mitoBK(Ca)) potassium channels have been proposed to regulate mitochondrial K(+) influx and matrix volume and to mediate cardiac ischaemic preconditioning (IP). However, the specificity of the pharmacological agents used in these studies and the mechanisms underlying their effects on IP remain controversial. Here we used increasing concentrations of K(+)-ionophore (valinomycin) to stimulate respiration by rat liver and heart mitochondria in the presence of the K(+)/H(+) exchanger nigericin. This allowed rates of valinomycin-induced K(+) influx to be determined whilst parallel measurements of light scattering (A(520)) and matrix volume ((3)H(2)O and [(14)C]-sucrose) enabled rates of K(+) influx to be correlated with increases in matrix volume. Light scattering readily detected an increase in K(+) influx of <5 nmol K(+) min(-1) per mg protein corresponding to <2% mitochondrial matrix volume increase. In agreement with earlier data no light-scattering changes were observed in response to any mitoK(ATP) channel openers or blockers. However, the mitoBK(Ca) opener NS1619 (10-50 microM) did decrease light scattering slightly, but this was also seen in K(+)-free medium and was accompanied by uncoupling. Contrary to prediction, the mitoBK(Ca) blocker paxilline (10-50 microM) decreased rather than increased light scattering, and it also slightly uncoupled respiration. Our data argue against the presence of significant activities of either the mitoK(ATP) or the mitoBK(Ca) channel in rat liver and heart mitochondria and provide further evidence that preconditioning induced by pharmacological openers of these channels is more likely to involve alternative mechanisms.

Abstract
A prolonged period of ischaemia followed by reperfusion irreversibly damages the heart. Such reperfusion injury (RI) involves opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) under the conditions of calcium overload and oxidative stress that accompany reperfusion. Protection from MPTP opening and hence RI can be mediated by ischaemic preconditioning (IP) where the prolonged ischaemic period is preceded by one or more brief (2–5 min) cycles of ischaemia and reperfusion. Following a brief overview of the molecular characterisation and regulation of the MPTP, the proposed mechanisms by which IP reduces pore opening are reviewed including the potential roles for reactive oxygen species (ROS), protein kinase cascades, and mitochondrial potassium channels. It is proposed that IP-mediated inhibition of MPTP opening at reperfusion does not involve direct phosphorylation of mitochondrial proteins, but rather reflects diminished oxidative stress during prolonged ischaemia and reperfusion. This causes less oxidation of critical thiol groups on the MPTP that are known to sensitise pore opening to calcium. The mechanisms by which ROS levels are decreased in the IP hearts during prolonged ischaemia and reperfusion are not known, but appear to require activation of protein kinase Cε, either by receptor-mediated events or through transient increases in ROS during the IP protocol. Other signalling pathways may show cross-talk with this primary mechanism, but we suggest that a role for mitochondrial potassium channels is unlikely. The evidence for their activity in isolated mitochondria and cardiac myocytes is reviewed and the lack of specificity of the pharmacological agents used to implicate them in IP is noted. Some K+ channel openers uncouple mitochondria and others inhibit respiratory chain complexes, and their ability to produce ROS and precondition hearts is mimicked by bona fide uncouplers and respiratory chain inhibitors. IP may also provide continuing protection during reperfusion by preventing a cascade of MPTP-induced ROS production followed by further MPTP opening. This phase of protection may involve survival kinase pathways such as Akt and glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) either increasing ROS removal or reducing mitochondrial ROS production.

Abstract
1. This study aimed to investigate the protective effects of isosteviol against myocardial ischaemia-reperfusion (IR) injury and its effects on mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-sensitive potassium channel (mitoK(ATP)) activity in vitro. 2. Groups of eight guinea pigs were treated as follows: constant perfusion control (PC), IR control, ischaemic preconditioning (IPC) + IR, isosteviol (50, 250 or 500 nmol) + IR, 5-hydroxydecanoate acid (5-HD) (5 micromol) + isosteviol (500 nmol) + IR. The guinea pig heart was isolated and perfused in Langendorff mode with modified Tyrode solution at a flow rate of 10 mL/min. Ischaemia was introduced for 30 min followed by reperfusion for 20 min. Cardiac function, coronary arterial flow rate, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine kinase (CK) activities in the perfusate were measured prior to ischaemia and at the end of reperfusion. 3. There were no significant (P > 0.05) changes in cardiac function or markers of cell damage (i.e. activities of LDH and CK) in the PC group. In contrast, cardiac function was adversely affected in the IR group, with significant (P < 0.05) decreases in left ventricular developing pressure (LVDevP), dP/dt(max) and dP/dt(min) compared with baseline and the PC group. In addition, there were increases in activity of LDH (20%) and CK (67%) compared with baseline and the PC group. 4. Ischaemic preconditioning and pretreatment with isosteviol, at all dose levels, resulted in a significant (P < 0.05) attenuation of IR injury. Lactate dehydrogenase and CK activities were not significantly (P < 0.05) different compared with baseline. Isosteviol did not increase coronary flow, suggesting that the protective effect of isosteviol on the myocardium was not mediated by dilation of the coronary blood vessels. 5. Pretreatment with the mitoK(ATP) blocker 5-HD partially antagonized the effects of 500 nmol isosteviol, with a statistically significant attenuation of its protective effects on HR, LVDevP, dP/dt(max) and dP/dt(min) compared with isosteviol alone pretreatment. 6. The IR injury on the Langendorff perfused guinea pig heart was alleviated by isosteviol, which appears to mediate its effects through mitoK(ATP) channels. Future research might aim to investigate the interaction of isosteviol with mitoK(ATP) channels in order to clarify its mechanism of action.

Abstract
Pharmacological modulation of the mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K+ channel (mitoKATP) sensitive to diazoxide and 5-hydroxydecanoate (5-HD) represents an attractive strategy to protect cells against ischaemia/reperfusion- and stroke-related injury. To re-evaluate a functional role for the mitoKATP in brain, we used Percoll-gradient-purified brain nonsynaptosomal mitochondria in a light absorbance assay, in radioisotope measurements of matrix volume, and in measurements of respiration, membrane potential (DeltaPsi) and depolarization-induced K+ efflux. The changes in mitochondrial morphology were evaluated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Polyclonal antibodies raised against certain fragments of known sulphonylurea receptor subunits, SUR1 and SUR2, and against different epitopes of K+ inward rectifier subunits Kir 6.1 and Kir 6.2 of the ATP-sensitive K+ channel of the plasma membrane (cellKATP), were employed to detect similar subunits in brain mitochondria. A variety of plausible blockers (ATP, 5-hydroxydecanoate, glibenclamide, tetraphenylphosphonium cation) and openers (diazoxide, pinacidil, chromakalim, minoxidil, testosterone) of the putative mitoKATP were applied to show the role of the channel in regulating matrix volume, respiration, and DeltaPsi and K+ fluxes across the inner mitochondrial membrane. None of the pharmacological agents applied to brain mitochondria in the various assays pinpointed processes that could be unequivocally associated with mitoKATP activity. In addition, immunoblotting analysis did not provide explicit evidence for the presence of the mitoKATP, similar to the cellKATP, in brain mitochondria. On the other hand, the depolarization-evoked release of K+ suppressed by ATP could be re-activated by carboxyatractyloside, an inhibitor of the adenine nucleotide translocase (ANT). Moreover, bongkrekic acid, another inhibitor of the ANT, inhibited K+ efflux similarly to ATP. These observations implicate the ANT in ATP-sensitive K+ transport in brain mitochondria.

Abstract
Treatment of various types of cells with the mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K+ channel opener, diazoxide, preconditions cells to subsequent injuries and inhibits apoptosis. The mechanism of such preconditioning is not well understood. We have studied the effect of diazoxide pretreatment on mitochondrial morphology and function in HL60 cells and on susceptibility of these cells to apoptosis. We have found that diazoxide pretreatment inhibited etoposide-induced apoptosis and mitochondrial dysfunction. Diazoxide induced moderate mitochondrial swelling and increase in the cytosolic fraction of mitochondrial intermembrane proteins including cytochrome c without any significant effect on the oxidative phosphorylation function or membrane potential. Possibly as an adaptive response, total protein and mRNA levels of cytochrome c and of the anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family member, Bcl-xl, increased. These effects coincided with activation of the transcription factors cAMP-response element-binding protein (CREB) and NFkappaB. The gene encoding cytochrome c carries the cAMP-response element (CRE), and the gene encoding Bcl-xl carries both the CRE and NFkappaB response elements. The inability of etoposide to trigger apoptosis in preconditioned cells was most likely because of prosurvival signaling by CREB and NFkappaB, which included up-regulation of cytochrome c and Bcl-xl. All described effects were reversed by a specific mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K+ channel inhibitor, 5-hydroxydecanoate, proving the specificity of the action of diazoxide. Preconditioning was also reversed by a specific NFkappaB inhibitor, SN50, proving the importance of this transcription factor for the phenomenon of preconditioning. CREB and NFkappaB were activated most likely in response to an observed elevation in cytosolic calcium following diazoxide treatment. We, therefore, conclude that diazoxide-mediated preconditioning against apoptosis involves activation of the pro-survival transcription factors CREB and NFkappaB.

Abstract
Excessive build-up of mitochondrial protonic potential is harmful to cellular homeostasis, and modulation of inner membrane permeability a proposed countermeasure. Here, we demonstrate that structurally distinct potassium channel openers, diazoxide and pinacidil, facilitated transmembrane proton translocation generating H(+)-selective current through planar phospholipid membrane. Both openers depolarized mitochondria, activated state 4 respiration and reduced oxidative phosphorylation, recapitulating the signature of mitochondrial uncoupling. This effect was maintained in K(+)-free conditions and shared with the prototypic protonophore 2,4-dinitrophenol. Diazoxide, pinacidil and 2,4-dinitrophenol, but not 2,4-dinitrotoluene lacking protonophoric properties, preserved functional recovery of ischemic heart. The identified protonophoric property of potassium channel openers, thus, implicates a previously unrecognized component in their mechanism of cardioprotection.

Abstract
The mitochondrial effects of two fluoride curcumin derivatives were studied. They induced the collapse of mitochondrial membrane potential (DeltaPsi), increased mitochondrial respiration, and decreased O(2)*- production and promoted Ca(2+) release. These effects were reversed by the recoupling agent 6-Ketocholestanol, but not by cyclosporin A, an inhibitor of the permeability transition pore (PTP), suggesting that these compounds act as uncoupling agents. This idea was reinforced by the analysis of the physico-chemical properties of the compounds indicating, that they are mainly in the anionic form in the mitochondrial membrane. Moreover, they are able to induce PTP opening by promoting the oxidation of thiol groups and the release of cytochrome c, making these two molecules potential candidates for induction of apoptosis.

Abstract
Coronary artery disease and its sequelae-ischemia, myocardial infarction, and heart failure-are leading causes of morbidity and mortality in man. Considerable effort has been devoted toward improving functional recovery and reducing the extent of infarction after ischemic episodes. As a step in this direction, it was found that the heart was significantly protected against ischemia-reperfusion injury if it was first preconditioned by brief ischemia or by administering a potassium channel opener. Both of these preconditioning strategies were found to require opening of a K(ATP) channel, and in 1997 we showed that this pivotal role was mediated by the mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K(+) channel (mitoK(ATP)). This paper will review the evidence showing that opening mitoK(ATP) is cardioprotective against ischemia-reperfusion injury and, moreover, that mitoK(ATP) plays this role during all three phases of the natural history of ischemia-reperfusion injury preconditioning, ischemia, and reperfusion. We discuss two distinct mechanisms by which mitoK(ATP) opening protects the heart-increased mitochondrial production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) during the preconditioning phase and regulation of intermembrane space (IMS) volume during the ischemic and reperfusion phases. It is likely that cardioprotection by ischemic preconditioning (IPC) and K(ATP) channel openers (KCOs) arises from utilization of normal physiological processes. Accordingly, we summarize the results of new studies that focus on the role of mitoK(ATP) in normal cardiomyocyte physiology. Here, we observe the same two mechanisms at work. In low-energy states, mitoK(ATP) opening triggers increased mitochondrial ROS production, thereby amplifying a cell signaling pathway leading to gene transcription and cell growth. In high-energy states, mitoK(ATP) opening prevents the matrix contraction that would otherwise occur during high rates of electron transport. MitoK(ATP)-mediated volume regulation, in turn, prevents disruption of the structure-function of the IMS and facilitates efficient energy transfers between mitochondria and myofibrillar ATPases.

Abstract
Evidence has been presented that mitochondria contain ATP sensitive potassium channels (mK-ATP channels), which may confer tissue protection upon activation. It is, however, not known whether activation of mK-ATP channels has a direct effect on mitochondrial ATP production. This study was performed to define the effect of pinacidil (PIN) on ATP production by oxidative phosphorylation in isolated cardiomyocyte or pancreatic beta-cell mitochondria. Cardiomyocyte mitochondria produced seven times more ATP than beta-cell mitochondria in the presence of pyruvate/malate. PIN inhibited pyruvate/malate-induced mitochondrial ATP production with half maximal effect at 360 microM in both cell types. The inclusion of 5-hydroxydecanoate (5-HD) did not prevent this inhibition. Succinate induced a similar ATP production in cardiomyocyte or beta-cell mitochondria. In beta-cell mitochondria succinate-induced ATP production was inhibited by PIN with half maximal effects at 500 microM PIN. However, in cardiomyocyte mitochondria PIN stimulated succinate-induced ATP production 3-fold with half maximal effect at 100 microM and maximal effect at 200 microM. This PIN-dependent stimulation was mimicked by rotenone. The inclusion of 5-HD could not prevent these PIN effects. In conclusion, PIN may inhibit complex 1 of the respiratory chain without indications of opening mK-ATP channels. In cardiomyocytes with metabolically inhibited succinate dehydrogenase this results in a stimulation of ATP production conferring tissue protection. In beta-cells without a metabolically inhibited succinate dehydrogenase, there is no stimulation by PIN and tissue protection by PIN is not to be expected.

Abstract
KATP channel openers have been shown to protect ischemic-reperfused myocardium by mimicking ischemic preconditioning, although their mechanisms of action have not been fully clarified. In this study we investigated the influence of the adenine nucleotide translocase (ANT) inhibitors--carboxyatractyloside (CAT) and bongkrekic acid (BA)--on the diazoxide- and pinacidil-induced uncoupling of isolated rat heart mitochondria respiring on pyruvate and malate (6 + 6 mM). We found that both CAT (1.3 microM) and BA (20 microM) markedly reduced the uncoupling of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation induced by the K(ATP) channel openers. Thus, the uncoupling effect of diazoxide and pinacidil is evident only when ANT is not fixed by inhibitors in neither the C- nor the M-conformation. Moreover, the uncoupling effect of diazoxide and pinacidil was diminished in the presence of ADP or ATP, indicating a competition of K(ATP) channel openers with adenine nucleotides. CAT also abolished K+-dependent mitochondrial respiratory changes. Thus ANT could also be involved in the regulation of K(ATP)-channel-openers-induced K+ flux through the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Abstract
Modulation of mitochondrial respiratory chain, dehydrogenase, and nucleotide-metabolizing enzyme activities is fundamental to cellular protection. Here, we demonstrate that the potassium channel opener diazoxide, within its cardioprotective concentration range, modulated the activity of flavin adenine dinucleotide-dependent succinate dehydrogenase with an IC50 of 32 microM and reduced the rate of succinate-supported generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in heart mitochondria. 5-Hydroxydecanoic fatty acid circumvented diazoxide-inhibited succinate dehydrogenase-driven electron flow, indicating a metabolism-dependent supply of redox equivalents to the respiratory chain. In perfused rat hearts, diazoxide diminished the generation of malondialdehyde, a marker of oxidative stress, which, however, increased on diazoxide washout. This effect of diazoxide mimicked ischemic preconditioning and was associated with reduced oxidative damage on ischemia-reperfusion. Diazoxide reduced cellular and mitochondrial ATPase activities, along with nucleotide degradation, contributing to preservation of myocardial ATP levels during ischemia. Thus, by targeting nucleotide-requiring enzymes, particularly mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase and cellular ATPases, diazoxide reduces ROS generation and nucleotide degradation, resulting in preservation of myocardial energetics under stress.
