Altered catalytic and electron transferring activities of mitochondrial complexes I-V have been associated with MD, and physiological consequences of MRC defects include reduced metabolic capacity, reduced ATP synthesis, and increased oxidative and nitrosative stress.
Mitochondrial diseases (MD) can arise where depletion of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), or mutations in mtDNA and/or nuclear DNA lead to altered mitochondrial function. Other non-MRC metalloproteins, particularly aconitase and catalase, provide distinct and specific biomarkers for oxidative stress. Each of these can exist in distinct oxidation states with environmental dependencies that include (1) the redox environment of the mitochondrion and the cell (2) the oxidative stress burden and history (3) the integrity of the mitochondrial membrane and (4) the functionality of the individual MRC components and the electron transfer chain overall. The MRC proteins contain a variety of redox-active centers, including iron-sulfur clusters, heme, copper ions, and quinones. Mitochondria are characterized by mitochondrial respiratory chain (MRC) complexes that catalyze redox reactions and act as electron transfer conduits during energy metabolism, driving ATP synthesis while closely chaperoning potentially toxic one-electron redox equivalents. An introduction to mitochondrial disease is followed by a description of EPR, a summary of the EPR signals that can be expected from tissue samples, sample preparation and analytical methods, and a case study in which EPR and complementary techniques were employed on a rat model to study human mitochondrial disease. EPR, therefore, has a role to play in the characterization, diagnosis, and ongoing evaluation of therapies for mitochondrial disease in human patients and model systems. A compromised ability to synthesize ATP and oxidative stress are two of the characteristic sequelae of mitochondrial disease and therapeutic approaches may differ widely depending on which of these is dominant. Quantitative information on the thermodynamic potential of the mitochondrion to synthesize ATP, and the extent of reactive oxygen species-mediated oxidative stress on the mitochondrion and the cell at large, can be obtained. To diagnose a panic, a feature called kdump is available which uses a second Linux kernel running in a reserved region of memory to save a core dump of the failed kernel for analysis.Electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR) is an analytical technique that, uniquely, can be used to directly interrogate flash-frozen tissue. Your system log may contain more information however, systemd-based distributions may not be able to write the information to disk because buffers are not synced on a panic (to prevent data corruption in the event the panic is caused by a filesystem bug).
#Flashfrozen drivers
As such, it blinks the Caps Lock and Scroll Lock lights on the keyboard continuously to indicate that the system has crashed.Ī kernel panic can occur for a wide variety of reasons, ranging from hardware problems to faulty drivers to filesystem corruption. However, because the Linux kernel is only able to directly output text on a console, it cannot signal a panic on the screen when the X server is running. This means that the Linux kernel has experienced an unrecoverable error and cannot continue, a condition equivalent to a Stop error ("BSOD" or "blue screen") on Windows. It looks like lots of people are finding this via Google and the accepted answer isn't particularly precise, so I'll post my own answer.įlashing caps lock and scroll lock lights signal a kernel panic.
