The mitochondria of adult and plerocercoid Spirometramansoniwere characterized in isolated mitochondria andin situby electron microscopic histochemistry with special attention to the respiratory chain. Although the specific activities of the constituent enzyme complexes of succinate oxidase are fairly similar in adult and plerocercoid mitochondria, those of succinate oxidase and NADH-FRD are approximately 4- and 25-fold higher in adult mitochondria than in plerocercoid mitochondria, respectively. Quinone analysis by high performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry showed that adult and plerocercoid mitochondria contained both rhodoquinone-10 and ubiquinone-10 at concentrations of 4.98 and 0.106 nmol mg−1for adult, and 0.677 and 0.137 nmol mg−1for plerocercoid, respectively. Inhibition studies on the succinate-oxidase system of adult mitochondria showed that they possessed both cyanide-sensitive and -insensitive succinate oxidases, the latter of which produces hydrogen peroxide. Adult mitochondria, when NADH was used as a substrate, were shown to produce hydrogen peroxide, and the production of hydrogen peroxide decreased to undetectable levels in the presence of fumarate. The specific activities of NADH-fumarate reductase and cytochromecoxidase were significantly higher in mature proglottids than in immature and gravid proglottids. Isopycnic density-gradient centrifugation analyses andin situelectron microscopic histochemistry revealed that both adult and plerocercoid mitochondria were heterogeneous in terms of respiratory function and physicochemical properties. The physiological significance of adult and plerocercoid mitochondria is discussed in relation to the oxygen tension of their parasitic habitats.
