Abstract：
:Treatment of isolated mitochondria from rat hepatoma tumor cells (AS-30D) with the oxidant, t-butyl hydroperoxide (tBuOOH, 1 or 5 mumol/ml) resulted in the oxidation of glutathione (GSH to GSSG) and the formation of protein-glutathione mixed disulfides (ProSSG). The GSSG was retained inside of the hepatoma mitochondria. In the presence of ADP+succinate (5 or 10 mM), or ketoglutarate (10 mM) or malate (5 mM), the GSSG was reduced to GSH, but the amount of ProSSG stayed constant. With saline or ADP+glutamate (10 mM)/malate (0.1 mm) no reduction of GSSG to GSH occurred. The presence of antimycin (5 micrograms/ml) with ADP+succinate inhibited reduction. At a concentration of 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea (BCNU, 0.5 mM) which inhibited a major portion of the glutathione reductase activity, the reduction of GSSG to replenish GSH was also inhibited. NADPH may play a critical role as well, for the addition of 2.4 mM NADPH to permeabilized hepatoma mitochondria fostered the reduction of GSSG after tBuOOH treatment. Therefore, hepatoma mitochondria possess a glutathione reductase-dependent system to reduce GSSG to GSH. The reaction only occurs with actively respiring mitochondria.
