Abstract
The effect of hypoxen on the oxygen consumption and activity of dehydrogenases in rat liver mitochondria has been studied. The addition of hypoxen to mitochondria caused a reduction of the rate of phosphorylating and uncoupling respiration. The minimal effective concentration of hypoxen was 15 μg/ml with succinate, 60 μg/ml with pyruvate or palmitoylcarnitine, and 120 μg/ml with glutamate as the substrates. The activities of malate, glutamate, and succinate dehydrogenases in mitochondria were significantly decreased by the effect of hypoxen.
