Abstract：
:MPTP is a neurotoxin thought to damage dopaminergic neurons through free radical formation. MPTP is metabolized in the brain to MPP(+), which is taken up into dopaminergic neurons via the dopamine transporter and assumed to impair mitochondrial function. We used striatal synaptosomes and telencephalic mitochondria to further investigate MPP(+) mechanism of action. For comparison, the respiratory toxins FCCP, a cyanide analog that uncouples mitochondrial ATP production, and rotenone, a NADH dehydrogenase inhibitor, were also tested. FCCP, MPP(+) and rotenone caused a rapid but stable decrease in [3H]dopamine (DA) uptake by striatal synaptosomes. Two free radical scavengers, the salen-manganese complex EUK-134, and the spin trap s-PBN, did not prevent MPP(+)-induced decrease in DA uptake. However, addition of ATP during synaptosome preparation resulted in partial recovery of MPP(+)-induced [3H]DA uptake decrease. Generation of oxygen free radicals by treatment of telencephalic mitochondria with MPP(+), FCCP, or rotenone, was evaluated by measuring DCF fluorescence, while light emission by the luciferin-luciferase complex was used to determine ATP levels. MPP(+), unlike rotenone, did not produce oxygen free radicals, but rather blocked ATP production in mitochondria, as did FCCP and rotenone. Taken together, these results suggest that MPP(+) toxicity, at least during its initial stages, is primarily due to a decrease in ATP synthesis by mitochondria and not to free radical formation.
