Glutathione-mediated effects of lithium in decreasing protein oxidation induced by mitochondrial complex I dysfunction

The aim of this study was to elucidate whether glutathione is involved in lithium’s ability to decrease carbonylation and nitration produced by complex I inhibition, which is consistently found in BD. Neuroblastoma cells were treated with rotenone, a complex I inhibitor. Our results suggest that glu...

Zusammenfassung:The aim of this study was to elucidate whether glutathione is involved in lithium’s ability to decrease carbonylation and nitration produced by complex I inhibition, which is consistently found in BD. Neuroblastoma cells were treated with rotenone, a complex I inhibitor. Our results suggest that glutathione is essential for lithium’s ability to ameliorate rotenone-induced protein carbonylation, but not nitration.
