Abstract
The myocardium cannot maintain its normal energetic state without oxidative energy production by the mitochondria. Therefore, during insufficient oxygen supply, the myocardial cell becomes progressively depleted of its energy reserves and ultimately deteriorates. Recovery of the myocardium from a period of oxygen depletion requires sufficient preservation of mitochondrial function. Apart from their central role in energy metabolism, mitochondria also perform a vital function in cellular Ca2+ homeostasis, since the mitochondria represent the largest intracellular compartment for the sequestration of excess Ca2+ from the cytosol. Control of cytosolic Ca2+ concentration becomes disturbed in energy deficiency and can be re-normalized when mitochondrial energy production is restored. For these reasons, damage of the mitochondria may be of crucial importance for recovery from states of cellular oxygen deprivation (anoxia, ischemia).
