    Abstract Mitochondria are involved in multiple cellular tasks, such as ATP synthesis, metabolism, metabolite and ion transport, regulation of apoptosis, inflammation, signaling, and inheritance of mitochondrial DNA. The majority of the correct functioning of mitochondria is based on the large electrochemical proton gradient, whose component, the inner mitochondrial membrane potential, is strictly controlled by ion transport through mitochondrial membranes. Consequently, mitochondrial function is critically dependent on ion homeostasis, the disturbance of which leads to abnormal cell functions. Therefore, the discovery of mitochondrial ion channels influencing ion permeability through the membrane has defined a new dimension of the function of ion channels in different cell types, mainly linked to the important tasks that mitochondrial ion channels perform in cell life and death. This review summarizes studies on animal mitochondrial ion channels with special focus on their biophysical properties, molecular identity, and regulation. Additionally, the potential of mitochondrial ion channels as therapeutic targets for several diseases is briefly discussed.

    Abstract Redox reactions exert a profound influence on numerous cellular functions with mitochondria playing a central role in orchestrating these processes. This pivotal involvement arises from three primary factors: (1) the synthesis of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by mitochondria, (2) the presence of a substantial array of redox enzymes such as respiratory chain, and (3) the responsiveness of mitochondria to the cellular redox state. Within the inner mitochondrial membrane, a group of potassium channels, including ATP-regulated, large conductance calcium-activated, and voltage-regulated channels, is present. These channels play a crucial role in conditions such as cytoprotection, ischemia/reperfusion injury, and inflammation. Notably, the activity of mitochondrial potassium channels is intricately governed by redox reactions. Furthermore, the regulatory influence extends to other proteins, such as kinases, which undergo redox modifications. This review aims to offer a comprehensive exploration of the modulation of mitochondrial potassium channels through diverse redox reactions with a specific focus on the involvement of ROS.

  6. Article: Identification of information about adverse drug reactions in local medical journals using MEDLINE and Embase versus manual full text review.

    Abstract Introduction: Collecting information about drugs in clinical practice is essential for ongoing riskbenefit analysis of the drug use. Medical literature is an important source of new information on drug safety, in particular for the signal assessment. A signal is an information about a new potentially causal association, or a new aspect of a known association (e.g. change in frequency or severity of the reaction) between a drug and an adverse event (AE).
    Aim of the study: To verify the effectiveness of the identification of adverse drug reaction (ADR) reports published in the local medical literature using MEDLINE and Embase, versus manual full text review of journals.
    Material and methods: The study was performed for 20 randomly selected drugs and 84 Polish medical journals and covers a review of 1,576 individual journal issues with 20,146 articles. Retrospective analysis of literature reports collected during manual full text review was performed and compared to the outcome of database search.
    Results: ADRs for analyzed drugs were identified only in 17 out of 84 journals, as a result of which 66 reports were analyzed. The majority of reports (55%) were found in local non-indexed journals. Three reports originated from journals indexed in MEDLINE and 9 reports from journals indexed in Embase were not found in these databases because databases do not fully cover conference abstracts and journal supplements. Moreover, while using databases for ADR report search there is a risk of missing up to 30% of ADR reports. The average gap between article publication date and database entry was 119 days.
    Conclusions: We verified that the effectiveness of the identification of ADR reports published in the local medical literature is more accurate based on manual full text review than by searching in bibliographic databases.

    Abstract The renal-outer-medullary‑potassium (ROMK2) channel modulates potassium transport in the kidney. It has been postulated that the ROMK2 is the pore-forming subunit of the mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channel as a mediator of cardioprotection. In this study, cell-free synthesis of the ROMK2 was performed in presence of membrane scaffold protein (MSP1D1) nanodiscs. Activity measurements were achieved after channel reconstitution into the planar lipid bilayer and tethered bilayer lipid membranes. Both methods allowed for monitoring of channel function, verified with channel blocking and activation/re-activation experiments. The primary function of the mitochondrial potassium channels is to regulate the potential of the mitochondrial membrane, which allows them to play an important role in cytoprotection. This work focuses on obtaining the ROMK2 using a cell-free expression system, followed by the incorporation of the channel protein into the lipid bilayer and studying the influence of voltage changes and molecular modulators on channel activity. Channel activity was measured after its reconstitution into two models of lipid bilayers - BLM (Bilayer Lipid Membrane) and tBLM (Tethered Bilayer Lipid Membrane) deposited on a solid gold electrode. These two model membranes and electrochemical measurements made it possible to measure the flux of K
