• The antioxidant effect of succinate and 3-hydroxybutyrate oxidation on the kinetics of lipid peroxidation induced by ATP-Fe2+ complex in isolated rat liver mitochondria of old (1.0-1.5 years) and young (3 months) male rats was investigated. The rate of induced lipid peroxidation V(LPO) in rat liver mitochondria and the half-time of oxygen consumption Δt50, which included the lag period and the initiation. phase, was recorded polarographically. Without exogenous oxidative-substrates V(LPO) was slightly higher in mitochondria of old animals, but the onset of lipid peroxidation cascade was significantly earlier than in young animals. Incubation of mitochondria with 5mM succinate for 1 min inhibited V(LPO) by 15% in young animals and by 35% in old animals. However, only in mitochondria of old animals Δt50 increased by 19% as compared to lipid peroxidation without substrates. V(LPO) in mitochondria of young animals did not significantly change during 3-hydroxybutyrate oxidation, while in mitochondria of old animals it was reduced by 19% with a slight increase in Δt50. To simulate age-dependent dysfunction we damaged isolated mitochondria by a series of freeze-thaw cycles, which caused a significant increase of V(LPO) of.both age groups. Succinate oxidation inhibited V(LPO) in damaged mitochondria in all cases by 56%, as compared to V(LPO) without oxidative substrates and extended At50 twofold in mitochondria of young animals. Oxidation of 3-hydroxybutyrate had no effect on V(LPO) in damaged mitochondria regardless of animal, age and extended Δt50 by 48% in mitochondria of young animals. Thus, the antioxidant effect of succinate oxidation can prevent lipid peroxidation damage and may exhibit geroprotective action at the level of aging mitochondria. Therefore, the antioxidant effect is due to the process of substrate oxidation in the respiratory chain but not because of an interaction of their structures with membrane lipids per se.
