Abstract
The effect of diterpenoids from plants of the genus Rabdosia (Labiatae) on the energy-linked functions in mitochondria from termite queen ovary has been investigated polarographicallv with an oxygen electrode. Some Rabdosia diterpenoids inhibited oxidative phosphorylation and significantly depressed the rate of respiration in state 3 and in 2, 4-dinitrophenol uncoupled mitochondria (state 4U) without depressing the respiration rate in state 4. © 1981, American Chemical Society.
