Cytochrome c Oxidase Inhibition by ATP Decreases Mitochondrial ROS Production. Cells 2022; 11:cells11060992.

Abstract
This study addresses the eventual consequence of cytochrome c oxidase (CytOx) inhibition by ATP at high ATP/ADP ratio in isolated rat heart mitochondria. Earlier, it has been demonstrated that the mechanism of allosteric ATP inhibition of CytOx is one of the key regulations of mitochondrial functions. It is relevant that aiming to maintain a high ATP/ADP ratio for the measurement of CytOx activity effectuating the enzymatic inhibition as well as mitochondrial respiration, optimal concentration of mitochondria is critically important. Likewise, only at this concentration, were the differences in ΔΨm and ROS concentrations measured under various conditions significant. Moreover, when CytOx activity was inhibited in the presence of ATP, mitochondrial respiration and ΔΨm both remained static, while the ROS production was markedly decreased. Consubstantial results were found when the electron transport chain was inhibited by antimycin A, letting only CytOx remain functional to support the energy production. This seems to corroborate that the decrease in mitochondrial ROS production is solely the effect of ATP binding to CytOx which results in static respiration as well as membrane potential.

Abstract
Cytochrome c oxidase (CytOx), the oxygen-accepting and rate-limiting enzyme of mitochondrial respiration, binds with 10 molecules of ADP, 7 of which are exchanged by ATP at high ATP/ADP-ratios. These bound ATP and ADP can be exchanged by cholate, which is generally used for the purification of CytOx. Many crystal structures of isolated CytOx were performed with the enzyme isolated from mitochondria using sodium cholate as a detergent. Cholate, however, dimerizes the enzyme isolated in non-ionic detergents and induces a structural change as evident from a spectral change. Consequently, it turns off the "allosteric ATP-inhibition of CytOx", which is reversibly switched on under relaxed conditions via cAMP-dependent phosphorylation and keeps the membrane potential and ROS formation in mitochondria at low levels. This cholate effect gives an insight into the structural-functional relationship of the enzyme with respect to ATP inhibition and its role in mitochondrial respiration and energy production.

Abstract
Almost all energy consumed by higher organisms, either in the form of ATP or heat, is produced in mitochondria by respiration and oxidative phosphorylation through five protein complexes in the inner membrane. High-resolution x-ray analysis of crystallized cytochrome c oxidase (CytOx), the final oxygen-accepting complex of the respiratory chain, isolated by using cholate as detergent, revealed a dimeric structure with 13 subunits in each monomer. In contrast, CytOx isolated with non-ionic detergents appeared to be monomeric. Our data indicate in vivo a continuous transition between CytOx monomers and dimers via reversible phosphorylation. Increased intracellular calcium, as a consequence of stress, dephosphorylates and monomerises CytOx, whereas cAMP rephosphorylates and dimerises it. Only dimeric CytOx exhibits an "allosteric ATP-inhibition" which inhibits respiration at high cellular ATP/ADP-ratios and could prevent oxygen radical formation and the generation of diseases.

Abstract
Induction of Heat Shock Proteins results in cytoprotection. Beneficial effect results from transcription and translational cellular components' involvement that defends metabolism and thus induce ischemic protection of the tissue. Mitochondrial respiration is also involved in stress- induced conditions. It is not a uniform process. Cytochrome c Oxidase (CytOx) representing complex IV of the Electron Transfer Chain (ETC) has a regulatory role for mitochondrial respiratory activity, which is tested in our study after hsp induction. Moreover, protein translation for mitochondrial components was probed by the detection of MT-CO1 for Subunit 1 of CytOx neosynthesis. Wistar rats were subjected to whole-body hyperthermia at 42.0-42.5 °C for 15 min followed by a normothermic recovery period. Heat shock response was monitored time dependent from LV biopsies of all control and heat treated animals with PCR-analysis for hsp 32, 60, 70.1, 70.2, 90 and MT-CO1 expression at 15, 30, 45, 60, 120 and 360 min recovery (n = 5 in each group), respectively. Enzymatic activity of CytOx were evaluated polarographically. High energy phosphates were detected by chromatographic analysis. The mRNA expression of MT-CO1 peaked at 60 min and was accompanied by hsp 32 (r = 0.457; p = 0.037) and hsp 70.2 (r = 0.615; p = 0.003) upregulation. With hsp induction, mitochondrial respiration was increased initially. Enzymatic activity reconciled from active into relaxed status wherein CytOx activity was completely inhibited by ATP. Myocardial ATP content increased from stress induced point i.e. < 1 µmol g-1 protein w/w to finally 1.5 ± 0.53 µmol g-1 protein w/w at 120 min recovery interval. Hyperthermic, myocardial hsp- induction goes along with increased CytOx activity representing an increased "active" mitochondrial respiration. In parallel, de -novo holoenzyme assembly of CytOx begins as shown by MT-CO1 upregulation at 60 min recovery time crossing with a final return to the physiological "relaxed" state and ATP -inhibited respiration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment of heart failure remains one of the most challenging task for intensive care medicine, cardiology and cardiac surgery. New options and better indicators are always required. Understanding the basic mechanisms underlying heart failure promote the development of adjusted therapy e.g. assist devices and monitoring of recovery. If cardiac failure is related to compromised cellular respiration of the heart, remains unclear. Myocardial respiration depends on Cytochrome c- Oxidase (CytOx) activity representing the rate limiting step for the mitochondrial respiratory chain. The enzymatic activity as well as mRNA expression of enzyme's mitochondrial encoded catalytic subunit 2, nuclear encoded regulatory subunit 4 and protein contents were studied in biopsies of cardiac patients suffering from myocardial insufficiency and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). METHODS Fifty-four patients were enrolled in the study and underwent coronary angiography. Thirty male patients (mean age: 45 +/- 15 yrs.) had a reduced ejection fraction (EF) 35 ± 12% below 45% and a left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD) of 71 ± 10 mm bigger than 56 mm. They were diagnosed as having idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) without coronary heart disease and NYHA-class 3 and 4. Additionally, 24 male patients (mean age: 52 +/- 11 yrs.) after exclusion of secondary cardiomyopathies, coronary artery or valve disease, served as control (EF: 68 ± 7, LVEDD: 51 ± 7 mm). Total RNA was extracted from two biopsies of each person. Real-time PCR analysis was performed with specific primers followed by a melt curve analysis. Corresponding protein expression in the tissue was studied with immune-histochemistry while enzymatic activity was evaluated by spectroscopy. RESULTS Gene and protein expression analysis of patients showed a significant decrease of subunit 4 (1.1 vs. 0.6, p < 0.001; 7.7 ± 3.1% vs. 2.8 ± 1.4%, p < 0.0001) but no differences in subunit 2. Correlations were found between reduced subunit 2 expression, low EF (r = 0.766, p < 0.00045) and increased LVEDD (r = 0.492, p < 0.0068). In case of DCM less subunit 4 expression and reduced shortening fraction (r = 0.524, p < 0.017) was found, but enzymatic activity was higher (0.08 ± 0.06 vs. 0.26 ± 0.08 U/mg, p < 0.001) although myocardial oxygen consumption continued to the same extent. CONCLUSION In case of myocardial insufficiency and DCM, decreased expression of COX 4 results in an impaired CytOx activity. Higher enzymatic activity but equal oxygen consumption contribute to the pathophysiology of the myocardial insufficiency and appears as an indicator of oxidative stress. This kind of dysregulation should be in the focus for the development of diagnostic and therapy procedures.
