Hydrogen peroxide produced from electron transport chain derived superoxide is a relatively mild oxidant, and as such, the majority of mitochondrial enzyme activities are impervious to physiological concentrations. Previous studies, however, have suggested that complex II (succinate dehydrogenase) is
sensitive to H2O2-mediated inhibition. Nevertheless, the effects of H2O2 on succinate-linked respiration
and complex II activity have not been examined in intact mitochondria. Results presented indicate that
H2O2 inhibits succinate-linked state 3 mitochondrial respiration in a concentration dependent manner.
H2O2 has no effect on complex II activity during state 2 respiration, but inhibits activity during state 3.
It was found that conditions which prevent oxaloacetate accumulation during state 3 respiration, such
as inclusion of rotenone, glutamate, or ATP, blunted the effect of H2O2 on succinate-linked respiration
and complex II activity. It is concluded that H2O2 inhibits succinate-linked respiration indirectly by sustaining and enhancing oxaloacetate-mediated inactivation of complex II.

Introduction
Complex II (succinate dehydrogenase, succinateubiquinone
oxidoreductase) is a multifunctional enzyme, catalyzing the oxidation of succinate to fumarate as part of the Krebs cycle and concurrently introducing electrons into the electron transport chain via
reduction of ubiquinone. As a source of electrons, complex II can
drive both oxidative phosphorylation and the complex I mediated
reduction of NAD to NADH via reverse electron ow [1,2]. Reverse
electron ow is also responsible, in part, for the production of reactive oxygen species produced in mitochondria respiring on succinate as an energy source [39]. Thus, regulation of complex II
activity is critical to both modulate its activity in response to energetic demands and also to regulate or limit ROS production.
The activity of complex II is regulated by numerous factors,
including both Krebs cycle and electron transport chain intermediates. The multifaceted regulation of complex II is most apparent in
isolated, respiring cardiac mitochondria. Complex II in isolated
mitochondria is found predominantly in an inactive state [10,11]
that is bound to oxaloacetate, a Krebs cycle intermediate and potent inhibitor of complex II activity [1113]. Complex II is activated
upon addition of succinate, malonate, or, to a lesser extent, NADH
linked substrates, to coupled mitochondria. These ligands activate
complex II by promoting dissociation of oxaloacetate. Disassocia* Corresponding author. Address: Free Radical Biology and Aging Research

thenoyltriuoroacetone (TTFA) sensitive reduction of ubiquinone1 (50 lM) at 280 nm (e = 13,700 M 1 cm 1) [27]. The presence of
0.1% Triton X-100 completely blocked ubiquinone reduction by
complex I [28]. Malate dehydrogenase (MDH):mitochondria were
diluted to a nal concentration of 0.1 mg/mL in a buffer containing
25 mM MOPS pH 7.4, 0.1% Triton X-100, 5.0 mM malate and indicated concentrations of ATP. Malate dehydrogenase activity was
measured spectrophotometrically as the rate of NADH production
at 340 nm upon addition of 1.0 mM NAD+.

Mitochondrial succinate-linked respiratory rates in the presence or absence of H2O2.
Rat heart mitochondria (0.25 mg/mL) were incubated at 25 C with 10 mM succinate
in the presence or absence of 50 lM H2O2 and/or 1.0 lM rotenone. Oxygen
consumption was measured polarographically with a Clark-style oxygen electrode
and state 3 respiration initiated by the addition of 0.5 mM ADP. Values are given as
nmol O2 min 1 mg 1 SE (n P 5 for each experimental condition).

Fig. 5. Glutamate prevents H2O2-mediated inhibition of succinate-linked respiration and decreases inactivation of complex II during state 3 respiration. (A)
Mitochondria (0.25 mg/mL) were incubated in the absence (black) or presence of
50 lM H2O2 (red) and respiration measured as in Fig. 1, with state 3 respiration
initiated at 2.0 min by addition of ADP (0.5 mM). Solid traces represent samples
respiring on 10 mM succinate alone, hatched lines had 10 mM succinate and
1.0 mM glutamate, and the blue trace had only 1.0 mM glutamate. (B) Mitochondria
(0.25 mg/mL) were incubated with 10 mM succinate and 1.0 mM glutamate in the
absence (dark bars) or presence (light bars) of 50 lM H2O2 added at t = 0. At times
indicated on the abscissa, an aliquot of sample was removed and complex II assayed
as in Fig. 4. Values are means SE (n P 3 for each experimental condition).

Fig. 6. H2O2 induces rotenone-insensitive consumption of NAD(P)H in mitochondria respiring on succinate. Mitochondria (0.25 mg/mL) were incubated in the
absence (black traces) or presence of 50 lM H2O2 (red traces) as in Fig. 1. NAD(P)H
autouorescence was measured using 340 nm excitation/460 nm emission [29].
NADH and NADPH autouorescence are indistinguishable, and therefore measurements are referred to as NAD(P)H. (A) ADP (0.5 mM) was added at 2.0 min. (B) ADP
(0.5 mM) was added at 2.0 min, and then rotenone (1.0 lM) was added at 4.0 min
while mitochondria were still in state 3 respiration. Catalase (200 U) was added at
10 min.
conditions (Fig. 6B). This consumption of NAD(P)H is likely attributable to malate dehydrogenase catalyzing the consumption of
oxaloacetate to malate.
The uorescence measurements in Fig. 6 represent the sum of
autouorescence contributions from NADH and NADPH, although
the concentration of NADH is much higher than NADPH in mitochondria [29,40]. Nevertheless, it may be expected that H2O2-driven decrease in NAD(P)H uorescence is attributable to the
activities of glutathione reductase or thioredoxin reductase which
consume NADPH as part of the mitochondrial glutathione peroxidase and peroxiredoxin 3 H2O2 detoxication systems, respectively. NADH and NADPH were therefore extracted and analyzed
by reverse-phase HPLC to determine the redox status of each
nucleotide pool. Results indicate that the H2O2-driven decrease in
NAD(P)H autouorescence seen in Fig. 6B are due to a decrease
in NADH, while NADPH levels are unchanged (results now shown).
This result supports an MDH-dependent decrease in NADH, but
cannot conclusively exclude a contribution from a transhydrogenase reaction that replenishes NADPH at the expense of NADH.
Discussion
The present report demonstrates that H2O2 inhibits succinatelinked respiration. The data supports a mechanism whereby oxalo-
