Adaptation to salinity by fish: Alterations in energy transducing status of muscle mitochondria
Indu Bashyam Suresh Narayan J Jayaraman
The functional status of fish muscle mitochondria during exposure of the organism to salinity stress was studied. No alterations were observed in the substrate oxidation capacity. However, the mitochondria appear to be in an uncoupled state during the first few days of exposure and recover thereafter. This could be correlated to high endogenous Ca2+ levels in the mitochondria in the early period. A Na+-Ca2+ antiport in these mitochondria is shown. Evidence is also presented to show that the mitochondria isolated during the early stages of stress are in a swollen state and are unable to contract on addition of ATP and Mg2+ Continued exposure to the stress, however, reverses the situation.

To trigger further research on plant mitochondria, the Journal of Biosciences is bringing out a special issue titled "Plant Mitochondria: Properties and Interactions with Other Organelles".
Plant mitochondria are quite distinct and have unique features, such as a cyanide-insensitive alternate pathway. They also interact with chloroplasts to optimize photosynthetic carbon assimilation.
Submissions are welcome until 30 July 2023. The contributions can be original articles, short communications, reviews, or mini-reviews on any topic related to plant mitochondria.
Authors can submit their articles online at https://www.editorialmanager.com/jbsc/default2.aspx
