Mitochondrial energetics is impaired in vivo in aged skeletal muscle
With aging, most skeletal muscles undergo a progressive loss of mass and strength, a process termed sarcopenia. Aging-related defects in mitochondrial energetics have been proposed to be causally involved in sarcopenia. However, changes in muscle mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation with aging remain a highly controversial issue, creating a pressing need for integrative approaches to determi...
متن کاملReduced amount of mitochondrial DNA in aged human muscle.
Muscle concentrations of mRNAs encoded by mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) decline with aging. To determine whether this can be explained by diminished mtDNA levels, we measured the relative concentrations of mtDNA and a representative mtDNA transcript [encoding cytochrome-c oxidase, subunit 2 (COX-2)] in muscle of young (21-27 yr) and older subjects (65-75 yr). The amount of COX-2 mRNA (relative to 2...
متن کاملMitochondrial coupling in vivo in mouse skeletal muscle.
The coupling of mitochondrial ATP synthesis and oxygen consumption (ratio of ATP and oxygen fluxes, P/O) plays a central role in cellular bioenergetics. Reduced P/O values are associated with mitochondrial pathologies that can lead to reduced capacity for ATP synthesis and tissue degeneration. Previous work found a wide range of values for P/O in normal mitochondria. To measure mitochondrial co...
متن کاملAcute exercise remodels mitochondrial membrane interactions in mouse skeletal muscle
A unique property of mitochondria in mammalian cells is their ability to physically interact and undergo dynamic events of fusion/fission that remodel their morphology and possibly their function. In cultured cells, metabolic perturbations similar to those incurred during exercise influence mitochondrial fusion and fission processes, but it is unknown whether exercise acutely alters mitochondri...
متن کاملMitochondrial energetics in liver and skeletal muscle after energy restriction in young rats.
The present study investigated the effect of 2 weeks of energy restriction on whole body, liver and skeletal muscle energy handling. We measured whole-body oxygen consumption, as well as mitochondrial protein mass, respiratory capacity and energetic coupling in liver and skeletal muscle from food-restricted (FR) rats, age- and weight-matched controls. We also assessed markers of oxidative damag...
