Abstract:
:Analysis of the initial rates of 45Ca2+ uptake by rat brain mitochondria in Ca2+-1,2-bis(o-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid buffers indicated that nontelencephalic mitochondria exhibited both a much less pronounced stimulatory effect of spermine and significantly more hyperbolic kinetics of Ca2+ uptake than telencephalic mitochondria. Nontelencephalic mitochondria were also markedly less susceptible to a Ca2+-induced hysteretic allosteric activation of the Ca2+ uniporter. A new Ca2+ loading procedure, which strikingly illustrates differences in mitochondrial Ca2+ buffering characteristics, is also described. In this procedure, low concentrations of Ca2+ (1, 2, or 5 microM) were repetitively added to mitochondria every 30 s while changes in free Ca2+ concentration were recorded. Spermine induced a marked attenuation of the rise in free Ca2+ level under these conditions. Steady-state rates of Ca2+ uptake were determined by a quantitative analysis of the buffering of repetitive Ca2+ additions, and, again, brain regional differences were qualitatively similar to those observed in the initial rate kinetics; Ca2+ uptake by nontelencephalic mitochondria in the steady state was markedly less responsive to stimulation by spermine and appeared to have a more hyperbolic dependence on Ca2+ in the absence of spermine. These results also suggest that there is a lag time in the activation of the uniporter by Ca2+, in addition to the hysteresis that has previously been observed in the deactivation of the uniporter.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
