In the present work, it has been shown that the isolated mitochondria can undergo transformation to lipofuscin granules without any additional factors (oxygen saturation, prooxidants). The process occurs spontaneously and slowly at low temperature, and rapidly--by heating (thermo-lipofuscin) or under UV irradiation (photo-lipofuscin). The main contribution to the formation of mitochondrial lipofuscin comes from denatured proteins. Thermo-formation of lipofuscin depends on lipid peroxidation, while the presence of lipids is not required for photo-lipofuscin formation. It is shown that the use of detergent able to degrade mitochondria is necessary to measure lipofuscin content properly. |
