ABSTRACT
AIM:
High-resolution respirometry in human permeabilized muscle fibers is extensively used for analysis of mitochondrial adaptions to nutrition and exercise interventions, and is linked to athletic performance. However, the lack of standardization of experimental conditions limits quantitative inter- and intra-laboratory comparisons.METHODS:
In our study, an international team of investigators measured mitochondrial respiration of permeabilized muscle fibers obtained from three biopsies (vastus lateralis) from the same healthy volunteer to avoid inter-individual variability. High-resolution respirometry assays were performed together at the same laboratory to assess whether the heterogenity in published results are due to the effects of respiration media (MiR05 versus Z) with or without the myosin inhibitor blebbistatin at low- and high-oxygen regimes.RESULTS:
Our findings reveal significant differences between respiration media for OXPHOS and ETcapacities supported by NADH&succinate-linked substrates at different oxygen concentrations. Respiratory capacities were approximately 1.5-fold higher in MiR05 at high-oxygen regimes compared to medium Z near air saturation. The presence or absence of blebbistatin in human permeabilized muscle fiber preparations was without effect on oxygen flux.CONCLUSION:
Our study constitutes a basis to harmonize and establish optimum experimental conditions for respirometric studies of permeabilized human skeletal muscle fibers to improve reproducibility.Palavras-chave
