Amyl rhodamine may promote mitochondrial respiration in liver mitochondria. Amyl rhodamine is responsible for uncoupling (respiratory stimulation in state 4) by two distinct processes. Immediately after amylrhodamine addition stimulation of respiration takes place. The second phase of the respiratory stimulation is not linear in time. Respiration rate within this phase increases with rising of potassium and phosphate content in the medium. The beginning of respiratory increment coincides with the second phase of Ca2+ release from mitochondria. References: Krasnikov BF, Avad AS, Zorov DB, Yaguzhinsky LS.
