[Catecholamine metabolism and mitochondrial enzyme activity].

Specific effects of various catecholamines as well as functional dependence of mitochondrial enzymes activity on catecholamine metabolism were studied. Dopamine activated cytochrome c oxidase in heart mitochondria and decreased this enzymatic activity in liver tissue. Noradrenaline and adrenaline activated cytochrome c oxidase in liver, brain and kidney tissues. The effect of dopamine on cytochrome c oxidase was prevented by activation of dopamine beta-hydroxylase. Increased activity of monoamine oxidase caused accumulation of catecholamine metabolites, which inhibited the succinate dehydrogenase activity in liver tissue and the cytochrome c oxidase activity in brain, kidney and liver tissues. In the catecholamine regulation of succinate dehydrogenase and ATPase activities in all the tissues studied as well as of cytochrome c oxidase activity in heart tissue the quinoid oxidation products were apparently involved.

[Formation of superoxide radicals in the mitochondria of skeletal muscle].

The superoxide-dependent oxidation of adrenaline by skeletal muscle mitochondria (maximal inhibition by superoxide dismutase from 50 to 80%) is described. The oxidation reaction is initiated by antimycin A but not by rotenone. It was assumed that the main source of superoxide radicals in skeletal muscle mitochondria is the site of the respiratory chain between the rotenone and antimycin block. It was found that skeletal muscle mitochondria are characterized by a higher rate of superoxide anion formation and by a lower activity of superoxide dismutase as compared to heart mitochondria.
