Abstract

Changes in cytosolic and mitochondrial calcium content were studied in an endothelial cell model after simulating cold ischemia reperfusion injury. Image analysis demonstrated that only a subpopulation of mitochondria in endothelial cells accumulate calcium. Observations led to the hypothesis that mitochondria which are in close contact with the plasma membrane are mainly affected by the Ca2+ efflux across that membrane, while those in other parts of the cell remain unaffected.
