Mitochondrial ROS dependent functional deficiency and structural impairment in cardiac mitochondria after sepsis.
Mitchondiral fractions from the heart tissue of Rats infected by S. pneumoniae, or given PBS sham control, were subjected to measurements of complex I-V activities. Complex I was measured with ab109721 (top left), Complex II + III were measured using ab109905 (top right), Complex IV was measured using ab109911 (bottom left) and Complex V was measured using ab109714 (bottom right).
Freshly isolated mitochondrial pellets were resuspened in PBS supplemented with 10% detergent provided in the kits. Protein concentrations of these mitochondrial lysates were estimated and 25 μg (for complex I, IV and V) or 100 μg (for complex II+III) mitochondrial protein was used per reaction. Enzyme activities were measured spectrophotometricly in triplicate and expressed as changes of absorbance per minute per mg protein

Typical dose response curve for antimycin A. Assay was performed following the Dose Response Assay Procedure using antimycin A, a well known Complex III inhibitor. Antimycin A was prepared in DMSO to generate a 10 mM stock. Starting with a 150 μM final concentration in well, 1 : 4 serial dilutions of antimycin A were generated.

製品の詳細
MitoTox™ Complex II+ III OXPHOS Activity Assay Kit (ab109905) is designed for testing the direct inhibitory effect of compounds on Complex III activity in only 30 minutes. The assay is performed using whole bovine heart mitochondria, a rich source of OXPHOS complex. Succinate (electron donor of Complex II) and oxidized cytochrome c (electron acceptor of Complex III) are added to the mitochondria to start the electron transfer pathway that takes place during oxidative phosphorylation. The rate of couple Complex II + III reaction is measured by monitoring the conversion of oxidized cytochrome c into reduced form, which can be observed as increase in absorbance at OD 550 nm. The assay requires rotenone and KCN (not supplied): rotenone (Complex I inhibitor) blocks electron transfer to ubiquinone, ensuring that all reduction of cytochrome c happens via Complex II. The addition of KCN (Complex IV inhibitor) ensures that there is no re-oxidation of cytochrome c. The intra-assay and inter-assay variation of this assay are both < 10%.
Inhibitory effects of compounds on Complex III activity can be tested in two different ways: 1. Screening format, where up to 23 compounds can be tested at a single concentration in triplicate; 2. Dose response (IC50) format, where two compounds known to affect Complex III activity can be tested at 11 different data points in triplicate.
Testing for mitochondrial function has become a key aspect of drug discovery. Mitochondria can be affected by drug treatment, resulting into cardio- and hepatotoxic side effects that can lead to drug withdrawal from the market. Therefore, there is increasing emphasis on testing the impact on mitochondria early on in the drug development process to reduce failure rates during preclinical and clinical phases.
Store Bovine Heart Mitochondria and Cytochrome c (oxidized) at -80°C. Store all other components at 4°C.

Biological function summary
Complex III transfers electrons and contributes to proton translocation across the mitochondrial membrane. This process generates the proton gradient needed for ATP synthesis via oxidative phosphorylation often referred to as OXPHOS. As a core component of the mitochondrial respiratory chain Complex III interacts closely with other complexes mainly Complexes I and IV to maintain efficient energy conversion.
Pathways
Complex III is integral to the oxidative phosphorylation pathway and the respiratory electron transport chain. It ensures efficient electron transport working closely with Complexes I II and IV. Cytochrome c acts as an electron carrier between Complex III and Complex IV in this pathway. This coordinated interaction is essential for ATP generation meeting cellular energy demands.
