Estrogens prevent calcium-induced release of cytochrome c from heart mitochondria.

Abstract

We investigated the effect of estrogens on heart mitochondrial functions and whether estrogens can prevent calcium-induced release of cytochrome c from mitochondria. 10 nM-10 microM 17beta-estradiol or 4-hydroxytamoxifen did not affect mitochondrial respiration rate and membrane potential in state 3 and state 4. Higher concentrations of both agents decreased state 3 respiration rate and membrane potential. 100 nM 17beta-estradiol and 4-hydroxytamoxifen blocked high calcium-induced cytochrome c release from mitochondria but not mitochondrial swelling. Thus, at physiological concentrations estrogens do not affect mitochondrial respiratory functions but protect heart mitochondria from high calcium-induced release of cytochrome c.
