07/01/1998 - "The present study has therefore examined in more detail PHEC-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, both in vivo and in vitro, using isolated renal cortical mitochondria. "
07/01/1998 - "Previous studies from our laboratory have shown that mitochondrial dysfunction may be an important early event in S-[(1 and 2)-phenyl-2-hydroxyethyl]cysteine (PHEC)-induced cytotoxicity in isolated rat renal proximal tubules. "
04/01/1996 - "Pretreatment of renal tubules with aminooxyacetic acid failed to prevent the mitochondrial dysfunction induced by 1 mM PHEC, indicating an absence of further metabolism of PHEC by a beta-lyase-dependent pathway. "
07/01/1998 - "Renal cortical mitochondria isolated from PHEC-treated rats in vivo showed depressed effects on the mitochondrial respiration and oxidative phosphorylation in both a dose (0, 250, and 500 micromol/kg iv)- and time (0-24 h)-dependent manner in the presence of both succinate (Site 2) and malate plus alpha-ketoglutarate (Site 1) as respiratory substrates, with initial significant depression occurring as early as 4 h following treatment with 500 micromol PHEC/kg. Similar mitochondrial dysfunctions were observed in vitro in concentration- and time-dependent manners with both respiratory substrates. "
04/01/1996 - "Pretreatment with 1 mM deferoxamine prevented PHEC-induced lipid peroxidation but did not prevent PHEC-induced cytotoxicity, whereas deferoxamine pretreatment prevented lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and cytotoxicity after exposure to 0.5 mM tertiary-butyl hydroperoxide, suggesting that iron-mediated lipid peroxidation does not contribute to PHEC-induced proximal tubule cell death.
