What is The effects of temperature and thermal acclimation upon the osmotic properties and nonelectrolyte permeability of liver and gill mitochondria from rainbow trout ( Salmo gairdneri ) about?
Thermal acclimation of rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) taken from 20 degrees C to 7 degrees C resulted in adaptation of mitochondrial function, as evidenced by increases in the specific activities of NADH- and succinate-cytochrome c reductase of 1.93- and 2.7-fold respectively. Mitochondria from both gill and liver obeyed the Boyle-van't Hoff relationship in the range from 400 to 60 mosM. Thermal acclimation had no effect on the osmotic properties of liver mitochondria, whereas gill mitochondria from cold-acclimated trout were more sensitive to osmotic swelling than mitochondria from warm-acclimated individuals. The non-electrolyte permeability of liver mitochondria was assessed by optically monitoring mitochondrial swelling rates in isosmotic solutions of urea, glycerol, mannitol and glucose. Two parameters of mitochondrial swelling were determined: (a) initial swelling rates, d(1/A)dt, and (b) swelling constants, ks, derived from the time required to swell a fixed volume. Regardless of the assay temperature or the permeant employed, liver mitochondria from cold-acclimated trout exhibited greater initial swelling rates than mitochondria from warm-acclimated trout, indicating prope
