We have examined the substrate specificity and inhibitor sensitivity of H2O2 formation by rat heart mitochondria. Active H2O2 production requires both a high fractional reduction of Complex I (indexed by NADH/NAD+ + NADH ratio) and a high membrane potential, ΔΨ. These conditions are achieved with supraphysiological concentrations of succinate. With physiological concentrations of NAD-linked substr...... hiện toàn bộ
