This review summarizes recent work on the regulation of the permeability
transition pore, a cyclosporin A-sensitive mitochondrial channel that may play a
role in intracellular calcium homeostasis and in a variety of forms of cell
death. The basic bioenergetics aspects of pore modulation are discussed, with
some emphasis on the links between oxidative stress and pore dysregulation as a
potential cause of mitochondrial dysfunction that may be relevant to cell injury.
