title: The effect of the lipid peroxidation product 4-hydroxynonenal and of its metabolite 4-hydroxynonenoic acid on respiration of rat kidney cortex mitochondria.
abstract: In rat kidney cortex mitochondria, 4-hydroxynonenal inhibits state 3 respiration as well as uncoupled respiration at micromolar concentrations. The inhibition is more distinct for NAD-linked than for FAD-linked respiration. 4-Hydroxynonenal increases the state 4 respiration. It is assumed that 4-hydroxynonenal behaves like a decoupling agent. 4-Hydroxynonenal augments the inhibitory effect of 2,4-dinitrophenol observed at superoptimal concentrations. 4-Hydroxynonenal is metabolised by renal mitochondria, and 4-hydroxynonenoic acid is one of the metabolites generated. This metabolite is without effect on respiration at concentrations up to 50 microM. Therefore, the effect of 4-hydroxynonenal on respiration is not mediated by this fatty acid derivative formed during respiratory measurements.
