Masini A, Ceccarelli-Stanzani D, Trenti T, Rocchi E, Ventura E: Structural and functional properties of rat liver mitochondria in hexachlorobenzene induced experimental porphyria. Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 1984 Jan 13;118(1):356-63. A possible link between changes in iron and porphyrin content in liver mitochondria, from rats treated with either hexachlorobenzene, iron, or hexachlorobenzene plus iron, as a function of treatment time and their structural-functional properties, has been investigated. Normal oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria from rats treated with iron has been shown. By contrast a significant and constant uncoupling of the phosphorylative process, fully reversed by albumin, in mitochondria from rats treated with hexachlorobenzene and hexachlorobenzene plus iron has been presented. A possible involvement of pentachlorophenol in causing these abnormalities has been proposed. |
