title: [Dynamics of structural and functional changes in wheat root cells under the action of protonophore].
abstract: Structural and functional changes in wheat root cells during long-term action of a protonophore--carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP)--were studied. It was demonstrated that CCCP affected the electrical potential and inward resistance of cells, increased K+ ions release to the incubation medium, inhibits oxygen uptake for 1-4 h, which was followed by oxygen uptake stimulation for 6 h of treatment. These changes of physiological processes were accompanied with a variety of ultrastructural changes in cell organization, namely in the structure of mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum canals, and the nucleus. The role of protons is discussed, in particular, in the regulation of metabolic state of mitochondria, and in general regulation of structural and functional conditions of cells.
