Description

General description

A cell-permeable oxygen bridged dinuclear ruthenium amine complex that has been shown to bind to mitochondria with high affinity (K_d = 0.34 nM) and specifically blocks Ca²⁺ uptake into mitochondria in vitro (IC₅₀ = 184 pM) and in situ in intact myocytes (for complete block after incubation with ~10 µM of Ru360 for 30 min. Does not affect other cellular Ca²⁺ transport processes involved in cardiac muscle contraction even at micromolar levels.
