Mitochondria work like an electrical circuit. • The 'battery' is the respiratory chain Electrical circuit Mitochondrion Proton current Electron current + + Voltage 1.5V Voltage 0.2V Mitochondrial membrane _ _
The respiratory chain has 3 proton pumps in parallel with respect to the proton circuit Mitochondrion Proton current + Voltage 0.2V III I IV Mitochondrial membrane _
The proton circuit is governed by Ohm’s law: Current = voltage/resistance roughly: Respiration rate = constant x membrane potential / resistance to proton re-entry* *through ATP synthase or leakage across membrane

Langston JW, Ballard P, Tetrud JW, Irwin I (1983) Chronic Parkinsonism in humans due to a product of meperidine-analog synthesis. Science 219: 979-980. Four persons developed marked parkinsonism after using an illicit drug intravenously. Analysis of the substance injected by two of these patients revealed primarily 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) with trace amounts of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-4-propionoxy-piperidine (MPP+). it is proposed that this chemical selectively damages cells in the substantia nigra Nicklas WJ, Vyas I, Heikkila RE (1985) Inhibition of NADH-linked oxidation in brain mitochondria by 1-methyl-4-phenyl-pyridine, a metabolite of the neurotoxin, 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridine. Life Sci 36: 2503-2508. (MPP+), a major metabolite of the neurotoxin, (MPTP) inhibited the oxidation of NADH-linked substrates by brain mitochondrial preparations. Compromise of mitochondrial oxidative capacity by MPP+ could be an important factor in mechanisms underlying the toxicity of MPTP
Betarbet R, Sherer TB, MacKenzie G, Garcia-Osuna M, Panov AV, Greenamyre JT (2000) Chronic systemic pesticide exposure reproduces features of Parkinson's disease. Nat Neurosci 3: 1301-1306. chronic, systemic inhibition of complex I by the lipophilic pesticide, rotenone, causes highly selective nigrostriatal dopaminergic degeneration. These results indicate that chronic exposure to a common pesticide can reproduce the anatomical, neurochemical, behavioral and neuropathological features of PD.
Beal MF, Brouillet E, Jenkins B, Henshaw R, Rosen B, Hyman BT (1993) Age-dependent striatal excitotoxic lesions produced by the endogenous mitochondrial inhibitor malonate. J Neurochem 61: 1147-1150. Abstract: Intrastriatal injection of malonate, a reversible inhibitor of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), produced age dependent striatal lesions… The results strengthen the possibility that a subtle impairment of energy metabolism may play a role in the pathogenesis of Huntington's disease.

Schapira AHV (1998) Mitochondrial dysfunction in neurodegenerative disorders. Biochim Biophys Acta Bio-Energetics 1366: 225-233 Mutations of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) are associated with a wide spectrum of disorders encompassing the myopathies, encephalopathies and cardiomyopathies, in addition to organ specific presentations such as diabetes mellitus and deafness. Parkinson's disease , Huntington's disease , Friedreich's ataxia. In any event, mitochondria present an important target for future strategies for 'neuroprotection' to prevent or retard neurodegeneration.
