2-Oxoglutarate carrier dependence on membrane dynamics. A decrease in membrane fluidity in mitochondria, or an increased cholesterol/phospholipids molar ratio, such as that observed in rat liver mitochondria after chronic alcohol intake, results in impairment of the mitochondrial GSH transport through the 2-oxoglutarate carrier and, therefore, in a decrease in mGSH levels.
