Application

Bz-423 has been used as a mitochondrial inner membrane pore (MIMP) reagent to study its effect on oxygen consumption rate (OCR) and ATP synthesis in HepG2 cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Bz-423 is an inhibitor of mitochondrial F1F0 ATP synthase. It binds the oligomycin sensitivity conferring protein (OSCP) component of mitochondrial F1F0-ATPase, resulting in superoxide generation and apoptosis. BZ-423 was shown to block multidrug-resistant melanoma cells. In another study, Bz-423 selectively increased superoxide and induced the apoptosis of alloreactive T cells, which arrested established Graft versus Host Disease.
Bz-423 stimulates mitochondrial inner membrane pore (MIMP) opening in isolated mitochondria.

Gut bacteria-derived short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) play crucial roles in the maintenance of intestinal homeostasis. However, how SCFAs regulate epithelial turnover and tissue repair remain incompletely understood. In this study, we investigated how the SCFA propionate regulates cell migration to

Oligomycin is a classical mitochondrial reagent that binds to the proton channel on the Fo component of ATP synthase. As a result, oligomycin blocks mitochondrial ATP synthesis, proton translocation, and O2 uptake. Here we show that oligomycin induces proton uncoupling
