<jats:p> Mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium (mitoK <jats:sub>ATP</jats:sub> ) channels have been suggested as triggers and end effectors in myocardial ischemic preconditioning. However, the intracellular mechanism regulating mitoK <jats:sub>ATP</jats:sub> channels remains unclear. In the present study, mitoK <jats:sub>ATP</jats:sub> channels from bovine ventricular myocardium were reconstituted using planar lipid bilayers, and the effect of superoxide (O <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> <jats:sup>−·</jats:sup> ) on the activity of these reconstituted channels was examined. After incorporation, a potassium-selective current was recorded. The mean conductance of this current was 56 pS at 150 mmol/L KCl, which was substantially inhibited by 1 mmol/L MgATP. 5-Hydroxydecanoate (5-HD, 10 to 100 μmol/L), a selective mitoK <jats:sub>ATP</jats:sub> antagonist, reduced the open state probability (NPo) of these channels in a concentration-dependent manner, whereas diazoxide (10 μmol/L), a selective mitoK <jats:sub>ATP</jats:sub> agonist, significantly increased channel activity. HMR-1098 (100 μmol/L), a selective sarcolemmal K <jats:sub>ATP</jats:sub> antagonist, had no effect on the activity of reconstituted channels. Addition of xanthine/xanthine oxidase (100 μmol/L per 0.038 U/mL), an O <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> <jats:sup>−·</jats:sup> -generating system, resulted in a marked activation of mitoK <jats:sub>ATP</jats:sub> channels; the NPo of the channels was increased from 0.60±0.10 to 1.94±0.02. This O <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> <jats:sup>−·</jats:sup> -induced channel activation was completely abolished by pretreatment with 5-HD (100 μmol/L) or a sulfhydryl alkylating compound, <jats:italic>N</jats:italic> -ethylmaleimide (2 mmol/L). It is concluded that myocardial mitoK <jats:sub>ATP</jats:sub> channels can be reconstituted into lipid bilayers and that O <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> <jats:sup>−·</jats:sup> activates these channels. The effect of O <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> <jats:sup>−·</jats:sup> may be associated with its direct action on the sulfhydryl groups of the channel protein. </jats:p>
