Here we show that both Antimycin A, a respiratory chain inhibitor inducing apoptosis, and endotoxic shock, a syndrome accompanied by both necrosis and apoptosis, cause not only an increase but also the leakage of superoxide radicals (O-2(center dot-)) from rat heart mitochondria (RHM), while O-2(center dot-) generated in intact REM do not escape from mitochondria. This was shown by a set of O-2(center dot-)-sensitive spin probes with varying hydrophobicity. The levels of O-2(center dot-) detected in intact RHM gradually increase as the hydrophobicity of spin probes increases and were not sensitive to superoxide dismutase (SOD) added to the incubation medium. Both Antimycin A and endotoxic shock elevated O-2(center dot-) levels. Elevated O-2(center dot-) levels became sensitive to SOD but in a different manner. The determination of O-2(center dot-) with water-soluble PPH was fully sensitive to SOD, while the determination of O-2(center dot-) with the more hydrophobic CMH and CPH was only partially sensitive to SOD, suggesting the release of a portion of O-2(center dot-) into the surrounding medium.
