Background: Mitochondria are a source of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and several natural compounds are used as antioxidant agents. This study aimed to investigate and compare the effects of fresh grape juice red wine on oxidative stress biomarkers in rat liver mitochondria. Materials and Methods: In this regard, mitochondria were isolated from the liver of 27 male Wistar rats (220-250 g). The isolated mitochondria were cultured in different doses of red wine and fresh red grape juice for 24, 48, and 72 h. After treatment, total antioxidant capacity, lipid peroxidation, total thiol groups, and catalase activity were determined in the isolated mitochondria of the rat liver. Results: The results confirmed the oxidant/antioxidant effects of red wine and fresh red grape juice at different times. Conclusion: According to the results, the fresh red grape juice showed higher antioxidant properties than red wine in the liver mitochondrial samples.

The NADPH oxidase enzyme system is the main source of superoxide anions in phagocytic and vascular cells. NADPH oxidase-dependent superoxide generation has been found to be abnormally enhanced in several chronic diseases. Evidence is accumulating that polyphenols may have the potential to improve cardiovascular health, although the mechanism is not fully established. Consumption of concentrated red grape juice, rich in polyphenols, has been recently shown to reduce NADPH oxidase activity in circulating neutrophils from human subjects. In the present work we studied whether red grape juice polyphenols affected NADPH oxidase subunit expression at the transcription level. For this, we used human neutrophils and mononuclear cells from peripheral blood, HL-60-derived neutrophils and the endothelial cell line EA.hy926.Superoxide production was measured with 2′7′-dichlorofluorescein diacetate or lucigenin, mRNA expression by real-time RT-PCR and protein expression by Western blot. Each experiment was performed at least three times. In all cell types tested, red grape juice, dealcoholised red wine and pure polyphenols decreased superoxide anion production. Red grape juice and dealcoholised red wine selectively reduced p47phox, p22phox and gp91phox expression at both mRNA and protein levels, without affecting the expression of p67phox. Pure polyphenols, particularly quercetin, also reduced NADPH oxidase subunit expression, especially p47phox, in all cell types tested. The present results showing that red grape juice polyphenols reduce superoxide anion production provide an alternative mechanism by which consumption of grape derivatives may account for a reduction of oxidative stress associated with cardiovascular and/or inflammatory diseases related to NADPH oxidase superoxide overproduction.

Abstract Protein-mediated B12 uptake by isolated rat liver mitochondria has been shown to be enhanced by plasma transcobalamin (TC-II) but not by salivary R binder in vitro. The process is enhanced by calcium and depends on active mitochondrial respiration. Following uptake, cyanocobalamin is converted to adenosyl and methylcobalamins and released from the mitochondria. TC-II appears to be required for both cellular and mitochondrial uptake of vitamin B12.

Nadph Cytochrome C Reductase

The enzymatic activities of marker enzymes (NADPH – cytochrome c reductase and glucose-6-phosphatase) and synthetic enzymes (acyl-CoA:sn-glycero-3-phosphate acyltransferase, CTP:sn-3-phosphatidic acid cytidyltransferase, and CDP-diglyceride:sn-glycero-3-phosphate phosphatidyltransferase) were measured in both isolated mitochondria and microsomes from liver of guinea pig and rat. Results thus obtained show a significant difference in activities of these enzymes between subcellular particles within species and between two examined species. The activity of acyl-CoA:glycero-3-phosphate acyltransferase in guinea-pig mitochondria parallels the activity of microsomal marker enzymes in this fraction, while in rat liver mitochondria the activity is relatively higher and cannot be accounted for by the microsomal content as determined by marker enzymes. Implications of these results regarding mitochondrial autonomy in the biosynthesis of polyglycero-phosphatides and their precursors are discussed.

Tocopheryl Succinate

We compared the effect of α-tocopheryl succinate (TOS) on succinate-dependent respiration in rat liver mitochondria, homogenate and permeabilized hepatocytes in both a coupled and uncoupled state. In isolated mitochondria, a significant inhibitory effect was observed at a concentration of 5 µM, in liver homogenate at 25 µM and in permeabilized hepatocytes at 50 µM. The inhibitory effect of TOS on succinate respiration in an uncoupled state was less pronounced than in a coupled state in all the experimental models tested. When the concentration dependence of the TOS inhibitory effect was tested, the most sensitive in both states were isolated mitochondria; the most resistant were permeabilized hepatocytes.

: In recent years, the applications of nanoparticles have received a great attention due to their industrial and biomedical applications, while their beneficial effects suffer from controversial results at clinical stages. In the current study, cytotoxicity of cerium oxide (CeNP) nanoparticles (100 nm) were evaluated using mitochondria derived from wistar rat's liver. Isolated mitochondria from rat’s liver were divided into 7 groups including group 1 as control and group 2 to 7 as treatment group with different doses of CeNP (5, 10, 50, 100, 250 and 500mg/ml, respectively), for 24,48 and 72 hours. After exposure, oxidative stress biomarkers such as total ‎antioxidant capacity (TAC), lipid peroxidation (LPO), total thiol groups (TTG), catalase activity (CAT) and mitochondrial viability, were determined in isolated rat liver mitochondria. Results have shown that CeNPs increase TAC, TTG, CAT, LPO and viability of mitochondria in various exposure times and confirm antioxidant properties of CeNPs in mithocondria while mitochondria is a main source for the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Mitochondrial Malate Dehydrogenase

The binding of 14C-labelled bovine and porcine malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37) to rat liver mitochondria and mitoplasts was examined. The bovine enzyme was found to associate nonspecifically with isolated mitochondria and sonicated mitoplasts. Scatchard plot analysis suggested a specific binding to mitoplasts of the order of 5 pmol malate dehydrogenase per milligram of mitoplast protein. Porcine malate dehydrogenase dimer but not monomer exhibited a similar binding. The results are discussed in relation to the mechanism of uptake of the enzyme by mitochondria after synthesis on cytosolic ribosomes.

Pharmacokinetic parameters and the bioavailability of several dietary anthocyanins following consumption of red wine and red grape juice were compared in nine healthy volunteers. They were given a single oral dose of either 400 mL of red wine (279.6 mg total anthocyanins) or 400 mL of red grape juice (283.5 mg total anthocyanins). Within 7 h, the urinary excretion of total anthocyanins was 0.23 and 0.18% of the administered dose following red grape juice and red wine ingestion, respectively. Pharmacokinetic parameters derived from plasma and urine concentrations exhibited higher variability after ingestion of red grape juice. Compared to red grape juice anthocyanins, the relative bioavailability of red wine anthocyanins was calculated to be 65.7, 61.3, 61.9, 291.5, 57.1, and 76.3% for the glucosides of cyanidin, delphinidin, malvidin, peonidin, petunidin, and its sum (referred to as total anthocyanins), respectively. Bioequivalence was established for none of the anthocyanins. On a low level, urinary excretion of anthocyanins was fast, and the excretion rates seem to exhibit monoexponential characteristics over time after ingestion of both red grape juice and red wine. Due to low bioavailability, any significant contribution of anthocyanins to health protecting properties of red wine or red grape juice seems questionable, but the clinical relevance of these findings awaits further investigation.Key words: pharmacokinetics, anthocyanins, glycosides, bioavailability, humans.
