The energy-dependent, respiration-supported uptake and the uncoupler- or Na+-induced release of Ca2+ and Mn2+ by mitochondria from rat liver, heart and brain were investigated, using as indicators radioisotopes (45Ca and 54Mn), proton ejection, oxygen consumption, nicotinamide nucleotide oxidation-reduction and, in the case of Ca2+, the metallochromic dye Arsenazo III. Ca2+ uptake in the presence of Pi was rapid in mitochondria from liver and brain, and less rapid in those from heart. Mn2+ uptake was much slower than that of Ca2+ in liver and heart, but only slightly slower in brain. When added together, Ca2+ accelerated the uptake of Mn2+, and Mn2+ retarded the uptake of Ca2+, by mitochondria from all three tissues. When Mn2+ was present during Ca2+ uptake, its own uptake remained accelerated even after Ca2+ uptake was terminated. Mg2+, which was not taken up, inhibited Ca2+ uptake by mitochondria from all three tissues, and, when present during Ca2+ uptake, accelerated the subsequent uptake of Mn2+. The uncoupler CCCP induced a release of both Ca2+ and Mn2+ from all three sources of mitochondria; yet, release of Mn2+ took place only in the absence of Pi. The release followed the same pattern as the uptake, i.e., Ca2+ accelerated the release of Mn2+ and Mn2+ retarded the release of Ca2+. Na+ induced a release of both Ca2+ and Mn2+ from heart and brain but not from liver mitochondria; again, Mn2+ release occurred only in the absence of Pi. The Na+-induced release of Ca2+ was inhibited by Mn2+, but the Na+-induced release of Mn2+ was not accelerated by Ca2+.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
