  • Alternative Oxidase: a Mitochondrial Respiratory Pathway to Maintain Metabolic and Signaling Homeostasis During Abiotic and Biotic Stress in Plants

While respiratory carbon oxidation pathways, electron transport, and ATP turnover are tightly coupled processes, AOX provides a means to relax this coupling, thus providing a degree of metabolic homeostasis to carbon and energy metabolism. Beside their role in primary metabolism, plant mitochondria also act as “signaling organelles”, able to influence processes such as nuclear gene expression. AOX activity can control the level of potential mitochondrial signaling molecules such as superoxide, nitric oxide and important redox couples. In this way, AOX also provides a degree of signaling homeostasis to the organelle. Evidence suggests that AOX function in metabolic and signaling homeostasis is particularly important during stress. These include abiotic stresses such as low temperature, drought, and nutrient deficiency, as well as biotic stresses such as bacterial infection. This review provides an introduction to the genetic and biochemical control of AOX respiration, as well as providing generalized examples of how AOX activity can provide metabolic and signaling homeostasis.

As mitochondrial dysfunction may also lead to oxidative stress, production of reactive oxygen species was monitored simultaneously. All inhibitors reduced ATP content, but oligomycin-A did so most profoundly. Oligomycin-A and CCCP also significantly reduced mitochondrial membrane potential. Sperm motility almost completely ceased after the inhibition of mitochondrial respiration and both percentage of motile sperm and sperm velocity were reduced in the presence of mitochondrial uncouplers.

For example, production of ROS leads to an overwhelmed antioxidant system and during migration, a trade-off may occur between individual oxidative stress. In this Commentary, we describe a more nuanced performance and survival or reproductive fitness, owing to model of mitochondrial ROS metabolism, where integration of ROS oxidative damage accrued during intense exercise. Publications in production with consumption by the mitochondrial antioxidant these areas, and many others, often describe mitochondria as the ‘ ’ pathways may lead to the regulation of ROS levels. Superoxide and major source of ROS in animal cells, despite the high antioxidant capacity of mitochondria (Zoccorato et al., 2004; Dreschel and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) are the main ROS formed by mitochondria.

However, the rationale behind the notion of mitochondria as the major source of ROS in membrane-permeant H2O2; consequently, ROS may readily cross cellular compartments.

Oxidative stress seems to be the most important predictor of gestational diabetes mellitus development. Disturbances in the cell caused by oxidative stress lead to different changes in biomolecules, including DNA. The nucleobase which is most susceptible to oxidative stress is guanine. Its damage results in two main modifications: 8-hydroxy-20-deoxyguanosineor 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-20-deoxyguanosine. Their significant level can indicate pathological processes during pregnancy, like gestational diabetes mellitus and probably, type 2 diabetes mellitus after pregnancy. This review provides an overview of current knowledge on the use of 8-hydroxy-20-deoxyguanosineand/or 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-20-deoxyguanosine as a biomarker in gestational diabetes mellitus and allows us to understand the mechanism of 8-hydroxy-20-deoxyguanosineand/or 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-20-deoxyguanosine generation during this disease.

The ROS production Carmen Arena, University of Naples in plants is mainly localized in the chloroplast, mitochondria and peroxisomes. There Federico II, Italy are secondary sites as well like the endoplasmic reticulum, cell membrane, cell wall Sarvajeet Singh Gill, Maharshi and the apoplast. The role of the ROS family is that of a double edged sword; while Dayanand University, India they act as secondary messengers in various key physiological phenomena, they also *Correspondence: Aryadeep Roychoudhury, Post induce oxidative damages under several environmental stress conditions like salinity, Graduate Department of drought, cold, heavy metals, UV irradiation etc., when the delicate balance between Biotechnology, St. Xavier’s College ROS production and elimination, necessary for normal cellular homeostasis, is disturbed.
