Abstract: | Cardiac mitochondria provide energy for the contraction/relaxation cycle. The aim of our study was to isolate and characterize
mitochondria from Caprine hearts under control and in-vitro induced ischemia. A decrease in activities of all the enzymes
was observed in the ischemic models. Further characterization of proteins was done by SDS-PAGE and BN-PAGE. Lipids have been
characterized by analyzing the phospholipids by HPTLC and fatty acids by GLC in both groups. Our results indicated that injury
occurs early in the course of ischemia and progresses during ischemia. TBARS and carbonyl content have also been measured.
The in-vitro effects of fatty acids have been studied on the enzymes and complexes of mitochondria. |
