title: The role of phospholipase A2 in lipid peroxidation-induced fall of membrane potential of rat liver mitochondria.
abstract: Cumene hydroperoxide (230 microM)-induced fall of the membrane potential takes place only in Ca2(+)-loaded mitochondria. Inhibitor of phospholipase A2 p-bromphenacyl bromide prevents uncoupling of mitochondria, having no effect on the accumulation of lipid peroxidation products.
