Glutamate-mediated inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation in cultured retinal cells

Glutamate is an excitotoxin responsible for causing neuronal damage associated with mitochondria dysfunction. We have analyzed the relationship between the mitochondrial respiratory rate, the membrane potential ([Delta][Psi]) and the activity of mitochondrial complexes in retinal cells in culture, u...
