Notes:
Summary The incubation of rabbit heart mitochondria in the presence of ferrous ions induced lipid peroxidation which was accompanied by a reduction of mitochondrial respiratory capacity and Ca+- transport. The effects were more evident, when pyruvate was employed as respiratory substrate, and were partially prevented by catalase, while superoxide dismutase was ineffective.
