Coenzyme Q(1) as a probe for mitochondrial complex I activity in the intact perfused hyperoxia-exposed wild-type and Nqo1-null mouse lungRobert D Bongard
Medical College of Wisconsin, Zablocki VAMC, Milwaukee, WI 53295, USA
Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 302:L949-58. 2012..This study provides new evidence for the potential utility of CoQ(1) as a nondestructive indicator of the impact of pharmacological or pathological exposures on complex I activity in the intact perfused mouse lung...
Influence of pulmonary arterial endothelial cells on quinone redox status: effect of hyperoxia-induced NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1Marilyn P Merker
Department of Anesthesiology, Medical College of Wisconsin, VA Medical Center, Research Service 151, Milwaukee, WI 53295, USA
Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 290:L607-19. 2006..This study demonstrates that exposure to chronic hyperoxia increases the capacity of pulmonary arterial endothelial cells to reduce DQ to DQH2 via a hyperoxia-induced increase in NQO1 protein and total activity...
Impact of pulmonary arterial endothelial cells on duroquinone redox statusMarilyn P Merker
Department of Anesthesiology, Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, WI, USA
Free Radic Biol Med 37:86-103. 2004..These endothelial redox functions and their apposition to the vessel lumen are consistent with the pulmonary endothelium being an important site of DQ reduction to DQH2 observed in the lungs...
Lung redox homeostasis: emerging conceptsM P Merker
Departments of Anesthesiology, Pharmacology Toxicology, and Physiology, Medical College of Wisconsin and Zablocki Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53295, USA
Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 279:L413-7. 2000..Although the lung endothelium was the predominant cell type under consideration, at least some of the proposed mechanisms operate in or affect other cell types and organs as well...
Intracellular redox status affects transplasma membrane electron transport in pulmonary arterial endothelial cellsMarilyn P Merker
Department of Physiology, Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53295, USA
Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 282:L36-43. 2002..The results suggest that cellular redox status is a determinant of pulmonary arterial endothelial cell TPMET activity, with TPMET activity more highly correlated with the poise of the NADH/NAD(+) redox pair...
Preferential utilization of NADPH as the endogenous electron donor for NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) in intact pulmonary arterial endothelial cellsRobert D Bongard
Department of Pulmonary Medicine, Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, USA

Department of Biomedical Engineering, Marquette University, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53201, USA
Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 285:L1116-31. 2003..For DQ, the effect is conversion of a redox-cycling, oxygen-activating quinone into a stable hydroquinone...
Effect of chronic hyperoxic exposure on duroquinone reduction in adult rat lungsSaid H Audi
Department of Biomedical Engineering, Marquette University, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA
Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 289:L788-97. 2005..The increase in Kma could be accounted for by approximately 40% increase in vascular transit time heterogeneity in 21-day hyperoxic lungs...
Pulmonary arterial endothelial cells affect the redox status of coenzyme Q0Said H Audi
Department of Biomedical Engineering, Marquette University, Milwaukee, WI, USA
Free Radic Biol Med 34:892-907. 2003..In addition, once formed the QH2 undergoes a cyanide-sensitive oxidation by the cells. Thus, the actual rate of Q reduction by the cells is greater than the net QH2 output from the cells...
