This review summarizes recent work on the regulation of the permeability transition pore, a cyclosporin A-sensitive mitochondrial channel that may play a role in intracellular calcium homeostasis and in a variety of forms of cell death. The basic bioenergetics aspects of pore modulation are discussed, with some emphasis on the links between oxidative stress and pore dysregulation as a potential cause of mitochondrial dysfunction that may be relevant to cell injury.

Abstract
This review summarizes recent work on the regulation of the permeability transition pore, a cyclosporin A-sensitive mitochondrial channel that may play a role in intracellular calcium homeostasis and in a variety of forms of cell death. The basic bioenergetics aspects of pore modulation are discussed, with some emphasis on the links between oxidative stress and pore dysregulation as a potential cause of mitochondrial dysfunction that may be relevant to cell injury.File in questo prodotto:
