Monitoring of relative mitochondrial membrane potential in living cells by fluorescence microscopy.

TL;DR: Permeant cationic fluorescent probes are shown to be selectively accumulated by the mitochondria of living cells and application of such potential-dependent probes in conjunction with fluorescence microscopy allows the monitoring of mitochondrial membrane potential in individual living cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitochondria-Targeted Triphenylphosphonium-Based Compounds: Syntheses, Mechanisms of Action, and Therapeutic and Diagnostic Applications

TL;DR: The physicochemical basis for mitochondrial accumulation of lipophilic cations, synthetic chemistry strategies to target compounds to mitochondria, mitochondrial probes, and sensors, and examples of mitochondrial targeting of bioactive compounds are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting an antioxidant to mitochondria decreases cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury

TL;DR: Developing mitochondria‐targeted antioxidants, typified by MitoQ, which comprises a lipophilic triphenylphosphonium (TPP) cation covalently attached to a ubiquinol antioxidant, significantly decreased heart dysfunction, cell death, and mitochondrial damage after ischemia‐reperfusion injury.

Optical measurement of membrane potential.

TL;DR: The use of redistribution signals, which are slower, and thus more likely to represent to secondary effects of changes in membrane potential, and require permeant dyes with access to the internal millieu, may be more hazardous than the use of either fast or intrinsic signals.

Conservation and transformation of energy by bacterial membranes.

F M Harold
TL;DR: Energy Transductions in Mitochondria and the Role of the Membrane in Motility, Bacteriocins and the Energized State are studied.

Diffusion of Univalent Ions Across the Lamellae of Swollen Phospholipids

TL;DR: It is found that as the surface charge of the lipid lamellae is increased, the amount of cation per μmle of lipid increases, and the phospholipid liquid crystalline structures appear to “bind” or “capture” cations.

Coupling of Phosphorylation to Electron and Hydrogen Transfer by a Chemi-Osmotic type of Mechanism

TL;DR: Coupling of Phosphorylation to Electron and Hydrogen Transfer by a Chemi-Osmotic type of Mechanism is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Studies on the electron transfer system. IV. The electron transfer particle.

TL;DR: The preparation and properties of an electron transfer particle (ETP) obtained from beef heart mitochondria are described and the significance of the fact of the constant composition of ETP for the dynamics of electron transport is discussed.
