Bioblast alert 2021(02) - Permeabilized fibers: 2021-01-21

A quote from MitoPathways Chapter 3. Normalization:
Respiratory OXPHOS capacity P in human skeletal muscle ranges from 60 to 160 pmol∙s-1∙mg-1 based on wet muscle mass of permeabilized fibers. By comparison, mass-specific electron transfer capacity E is approximately 25 pmol∙s-1∙mg-1 in platelets and senescent fibroblasts and 40 to 80 pmol∙s-1∙mg-1 in PBMC, HEK, CEM, HUVEC, and young fibroblasts. ― Are these values comparable? - »Gnaiger 2020 BEC MitoPathways«.

What is the optimal ADP concentration to evaluate OXPHOS capacity in permeabilized muscle fibers (pfi)?
For the evaluation of OXPHOS capacity, the limitation of respiratory fluxes must be avoided by using a kinetically-saturating ADP concentration. In permeabilized muscle fibers, an ADP concentration of 5 mM or higher is needed to reach kinetically-saturating levels.
