Agaric acid (Agaricic acid), an inducer of mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT), is used to study the MPT process at the level of the ADP and ATP exchange via the adenine nucleotide carrier/translocase.

In this work, we studied the effect of N-ethylmaleimide on permeability transition. The findings indicate that the amine inhibited the effects of carboxyatractyloside and agaric acid. It is known that these reagents interact with the adenine nucleotide carrier through the

Nonesterified long-chain fatty acids have long been known as uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation. They are efficient protonophores in the inner mitochondrial membrane but not so in artificial phospholipid membranes. In the un-ionized form, they undergo a rapid spontaneous transbilayer movement

The metabolic inter-relationships between malarial parasites and their host erythrocytes are poorly understood. They have been investigated hitherto mostly by observing parasite behavior in erythrocyte variants, in metabolically altered erythrocytes, or in cell-free in vitro systems. We have studied the
