Abbreviation: RET

Reference: A - SUIT-026

SUIT number: D064_1S;2Rot;3D;4Ama

SUIT protocol pattern: 1S;2Rot;3D;4Ama

SUIT-026 AmR mt D064 has been designed to study the RET production of ROS in isolated mitochondria. The protocol is focused on LEAK state for the S-pathway to provide the conditions of high membrane potential, redox power in the Q-junction and no presence of reduced NADH. Under these conditions, in several samples has been described that a reverse flow of the electrons into the membrane arm and the quinone binding site of the Complex I occurs, promoting the production of ROS. The addition of rotenone provides excellent control to this mechanism because this compound blocks the point on which the electrons leak from the Complex I. The last step, the titration of ADP at saturating concentrations to reach OXPHOS allow us to harmonize this protocol with SUIT-006 O2 mt D022 for quality control and a full assessment of the coupling control.

Steps and respiratory states

Step State Pathway Q-junction Comment - Events (E) and Marks (M)
0DTPA
  • DTPA is an iron chelator, which decreases the chemical fluorescence background created by the Amplex UltraRed assay. Administration of DTPA into the O2k-chamber is recommended before all other chemicals because the iron chelation capacity of the compound is time-dependent (approx. 10-15 min). However, the experiments can be carried out in the absence of DTPA.
0SOD
  • SOD or superoxide dismutase converts the anion superoxide released by the mitochondria into H2O2, making it accessible to the Amplex UltraRed assay.
0HRP
  • HRP or horseradish peroxidase catalyses the conversion of Amplex UltraRed and H2O2 towards the fluorescent resorufin.

3D SP S CII 1S;2Rot;3D
4Ama ROX 1S;2Rot;3D;4Ama
  • Rox is the residual oxygen consumption in the ROX state, due to oxidative side reactions, estimated after addition of antimycin A (inhibitor of CIII). Rox is subtracted from oxygen flux as a baseline for all respiratory states, to obtain mitochondrial respiration (mt).

Strengths and limitations

  • The conditions under RET is observable in isolated mitochondria are not physiological but it has been suggested that corresponds to some pathological states.
+ This protocol must be run parallel with SUIT-026 O2 mt D063 to have a respiratory control.
+ Short protocol.
+ Rotenone provides an excellent control step for RET.
- The protocol does not allow to obtain all the coupling states of the sample.
