Effects of Local Anesthetics on Electron Transport and Generation of Superoxide Radicals in Mitochondria

국소마취제가 Mitochondria에서의 전자이동 및 Superoxide Radicals의 생성에 미치는 영향

Local anesthetics were investigated for their effects on mitochondrial electron transport system, production of superoxide radical from submitochondrial particles and malondialdehyde production through lipid per oxidation. Local anesthetics had various effects on activities of enzymes in electron transport chain. The activities of NADH dehydrogenase, NADH oxidase and NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase were effectively inhibited by lidocaine, procaine and dibucaine but slightly influenced by cocaine. The activities of succinate dehydrogenase, succinate-cytochrome c oxidoreductase and succinate-ubiquinone oxidoreductase were inhibited by lidocaine and dibucaine, but the succinate oxidase activity was stimulated by local anesthetics. Both dihydroubiquinone-cytochrome c oxidoreductase and cytochrome c oxidase activities were inhibited by local anesthetics. In these reactions, the response of Complex I segment to local anesthetics was greater than other Complex segments. Local anesthetics inhibited both the superoxide production from submitochondrial particles supplemented with succinate or NADH and the enhanced production of superoxide radicals by antimycin. The malondialdehyde production by oxygen free radicals was inhibited by local anesthetics. These results suggest that the inhibition of superoxide and malondialdehyde production caused by local anesthetics may be brought by suppression of the electron transport in mitochondria at sites in or near complex I segment.

국소마취제가 mitochondria에서의 전자이동 및 superoxide라디칼의 생성 그리고 지질의 과산화에 따른 malondialdehyde생성에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. 국소마취제는 전자이동계 의 효소활성도에 영향을 나타내었다. NADH dehydrogenase, NADH oxidase와 NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase의 활성도는 lidocaine, procaine과 dibucaine에 의하여 효과적으로 억제되었고 cocaine에 의하여 약간 억제되었다. Succinate dehydrogenase, succinate cytochrome c oxidoreductase와 succinate-ubiquinone oxidoreductase 활성도는 lidocaine 과 dibucaine에 의하여 억제되었으나 succinate oxidase는 국소마취제에 의하여 활성화되었다. 국소마취제는 dihydroubiquinone-cytochrome c oxidoreducatse와 cytochrome c oxidase의 활성도를 억제하였다. 이와 같은 반응에서 국소마취제에 대한 complex I segment의 반응이 다른 complex segment보다 크게 나타났다. 국소마취제는 succinate 또는 NADH에 의한 superoxide 생성과 이에 대한 antimycin의 자극효과를 억제하였다. 또한 국소마취제는 산소라디칼에 의한 지질의 과산화를 억제하였다. 이상의 결과로부터 국소마취제는 mitochondria의 전자전달 과정 중 Complex I segment때 또는 인접한 부위에 작용하여 전자이동을 억제함으로써 superoxide 생성과 지질의 과산화를 억제할 것으로 시사되었다.
