The mitochondrial permeability transition pore in cell death: A promising drug binding bioarchitecture

Abstract: Bioenergetic failure often features programmed cell death involved in some severe pathologies. When the cell is fated to die, the inner mitochondrial membrane becomes permeable to ions and solutes, due to the formation and opening of a channel known as mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP). Up to now, the still‐elusive mPTP structure and mechanism prevented any attempt to identify/design drugs to rule its formation and limit cell death. Latest advances, which strongly suggest that the F1FO‐ATPase c… Show more

“…Future studies, aiming at enlightening the supramolecular F 1 F O -ATPase organization, are expected to add further details to shed light on the structural changes in the enzyme complex and on its relationship with the mPTP. On these bases, the multi-tasking F 1 F O -ATPase may emerge as a promising drug binding bioarchitecture to counteract mPTP-related diseases [38].…”

“…The F 1 domain which hydrolyzes ATP in the presence of Ca 2+ drives the mechanical‐power transmission which results in F O conductance to H + . Consistently, the poor H + ‐pumping activity of the Ca 2+ ‐dependent F 1 F O ‐ATP(hydrol)ase fails to energize the IMM, mainly because the same enzyme activity is a key PTP constituent, and most likely the PTP opening prevents and masks Δ p formation 33,36 …”

“…The pore's molecular composition and architecture are being studied in some leading laboratories; however, they remain unknown. Non-specific transition is supposed to be provided by a multi-protein complex, which is composed of an anion channel in an outer mitochondrial membrane (VDAC), ANT, and cyclophilin D (CyPD), as well as hexokinase and proteins Bcl-2 [18,19].…”
