Cellular energetic parameters including the intramitochondria and cytosolic [NAD+]/[NADH] ratios, the cellular [ATP]/[ADP][Pi] and [creatine phosphate]/[creatine] ratios, the concentration of cytochrome c and its redox state, and the respiratory rate were studied in suspensions of rat brain synaptosomes isolated from nembutal-anesthetized and nonanesthetized animals. The ratio of [3-hydroxybutyrate] to [acetoacetate] was 2.0 in synaptosomes isolated from nonanesthetized rats and 5.55 in those from anesthetized animals. The [lactate]/[pyruvate] ratio was 3.8 in the former and 10.9 in the latter preparation. The [ATP]/[ADP][Pi] was 3838 M in the synaptosomes from anesthetized rats and 840 M in those from nonanesthetized animals: the [creatine phosphate]/[creatine] ratios were 0.79 and 0.39, respectively. Cytochrome c was about 15% reduced in both preparations; the mitochondrial cytochrome concentration was almost 2-fold higher in the synaptosomes from nonanesthetized animals. The free energy relationships between the mitochondrial redox reactions and ATP synthesis showed that in synaptosomes isolated from the brains of nembutal-anesthetized rats the first 2 sites of oxidative phosphorylation were at near-equilibrium, corresponding to intact cells and tissues. The energetic parameters for synaptosomes from anesthetized rats are very similar to the values for intact whole brain. Those for synaptosomes from nonanesthetized rats are lower. Nembutal anesthesia apparently protects against some irreversible damage to the synaptosome during isolation. Synaptosomes isolated from brains of nembutal-anesthetized rats apparently can be used as a convenient model system for studies of neuronal metabolism.
