This study reports an investigation on the effect of the seleno-organic compound ebselen on rat liver mitochondria. We show that low concentrations of ebselen induced an increase in rat liver mitochondrial membrane permeability, resulting in swelling and loss of membrane potential. These effects were mediated by the opening of the permeability transition pore. They required Ca 2+ , were...
Curcumin is a natural compound showing antiproliferative properties. Recent studies suggest that these properties might be due to its ability to induce apoptosis in tumor cells. As mitochondria play a pivotal role in the induction of the apoptotic process, we analyzed the effect of curcumin on mitochondrial function. Curcumin induced an increase in rat liver mitochondrial membrane permeability, resulting...
