Invasive and noninvasive markers of human skeletal muscle mitochondrial function
Physiological Reports, 2023 Mitochondria are organelles that fuel cellular energy requirements by ATP formation via aerobic metabolism. Given the wide variety of methods to assess skeletal muscle mitochondrial capacity, we tested how well different invasive and noninvasive markers ...

Circadian rhythms in mitochondrial respiration [PDF]
Journal of Molecular Endocrinology, 2018 Many physiological processes are regulated with a 24-h periodicity to anticipate the environmental changes of daytime to nighttime and vice versa. These 24-h regulations, commonly termed circadian rhythms, among others control the sleep–wake cycle, locomotor activity and preparation for food availability during the active phase (daytime for humans and ...

Metformin Improves Mitochondrial Respiratory Activity through Activation of AMPK
Cell Reports, 2019 Summary: Impaired mitochondrial respiratory activity contributes to the development of insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes. Metformin, a first-line antidiabetic drug, functions mainly by improving patients’ hyperglycemia and insulin resistance. However,

Modulation of Human Sperm Mitochondrial Respiration Efficiency by Plant Polyphenols
Antioxidants, 2021 Plant bioactives, such as polyphenols, can differentially affect (positively or negatively) sperm quality, depending on their concentration. These molecules have been proposed as natural scavengers of reactive oxygen species (ROS) for male infertility ...

Superior Intrinsic Mitochondrial Respiration in Women Than in Men
Frontiers in Physiology, 2018 Sexual dimorphism is apparent in humans, however, to date no studies have investigated mitochondrial function focusing on intrinsic mitochondrial respiration (i.e., mitochondrial respiration for a given amount of mitochondrial protein) and mitochondrial ...
