Abstract: As the knowledge base and importance of mitochondrial physiology to human health expands, the necessity for harmonizing nomenclature concerning mitochondrial respiratory states and rates has become increasingly apparent. Clarity of concept and consistency of nomenclature are key trademarks of a research field. These trademarks facilitate effective transdisciplinary communication, education, and ultimately further discovery. Peter Mitchell’s chemiosmotic theory establishes the mechanism of energy transformation and coupling in oxidative phosphorylation. The unifying concept of the protonmotive force provides the framework for developing a consistent theoretical foundation of mitochondrial physiology and bioenergetics. We follow IUPAC guidelines on terminology in physical chemistry, extended by considerations on open systems and irreversible thermodynamics. The concept-driven constructive terminology incorporates the meaning of each quantity and aligns concepts and symbols to the nomenclature of classical bioenergetics. In the frame of COST Action MitoEAGLE open to global bottom-up input, we endeavour to provide a balanced view on mitochondrial respiratory control and a critical discussion on reporting data of mitochondrial respiration in terms of metabolic flows and fluxes. Uniform standards for evaluation of respiratory states and rates will ultimately support the development of databases of mitochondrial respiratory function in species, tissues, and cells.

Executive summary

 Updated 2018-02-25
Fig. 1. Respiration in the framework of cellular catabolic energy metabolism. Aerobic respiration is the utilization of the products of extra-mitochondrial catabolism as fuel substrates for electron transfer to O2 as the electron acceptor. In core pathways of energy metabolism, catabolic reactions are coupled to the phosphorylation of ADP to ATP, with energy transformation mediated by the protonmotive force, ∆p. Anabolic reactions are tightly integrated with catabolism, both by ATP as the intermediary energy currency and by small organic precursor molecules as building blocks for biosynthesis (not shown). Glycolysis involves substrate-level phosphorylation of ADP to ATP in anaerobic fermentation. In contrast, partial extra-mitochondrial oxidation of fatty acids and amino acids proceeds in peroxisomes without coupling to ATP production: acyl-CoA oxidase catalyzes the oxidation of FADH2 with electron transfer to O2; amino acid oxidases oxidize FMNH2 or FADH2. Mitochondrial outer and inner membrane, mtOM and mtIM. Coenzyme Q, Q, and the cytochromes b, c, and aa3 are redox systems of the mtIM. Dashed arrows indicate the connection between the proton pumps (respiratory Complexes CI, CIII and CIV) and the transmembrane ∆p. Glycerol-3-phosphate, Gp; tricarboxylic acid cycle, TCA cycle. Mitochondria and peroxisomes are maintained intact and associated in various mitochondrial preperations used in respiratory studies, whereas the cytosolic components are separated from the mitochondria for the analysis of oxidative phosphorylation.
  1. In view of broad implications on health care, mitochondrial researchers face an increasing responsibility to disseminate their fundamental knowledge and novel discoveries to a wide range of stakeholders and scientists beyond the group of specialists. This requires implementation of a commonly accepted terminology within the discipline and standardization in the translational context. Authors, reviewers, journal editors, and lecturers are challenged to collaborate with the aim to harmonize the nomenclature in the growing field of mitochondrial physiology and bioenergetics.
  2. Aerobic energy metabolism in mitochondria of most eukaryotic cells depends on the coupling of ADP → ATP phosphorylation to oxygen consumption in catabolic reactions. In this process of oxidative phosphorylation, coupling is mediated by translocation of protons through respiratory proton pumps operating across the inner mitochondrial membrane and generating or utilizing the protonmotive force measured between the mitochondrial matrix and intermembrane compartment. Compartmental coupling thus distinguishes vectorial oxidative phosphorylation from fermentation as the counterpart of cellular core energy metabolism (Fig. 1).
  3. To exclude fermentation and other cytosolic interactions from exerting an effect on mitochondrial metabolism, the barrier function of the plasma membrane must be disrupted. Selective removal or permeabilization of the plasma membrane yields mitochondrial preparations—including isolated mitochondria, tissue and cellular preparations—with structural and functional integrity. Then extra-mitochondrial concentrations of fuel substrates transported into the mitochondrial matrix, ADP, ATP, inorganic phosphate, and cations including H+ can be controlled to determine mitochondrial function under a set of conditions defined as coupling control states. A concept-driven terminology of bioenergetics incorporates in its terms and symbols explicitly information on the nature of respiratory states, that makes the technical terms readily recognized and easy to understand.
  4. Mitochondrial coupling states are defined according to the control of respiratory oxygen consumption by the protonmotive force. Capacities of oxidative phosphorylation and electron transfer capacities are measured at kinetically saturating concentrations of fuel substrates, ADP and inorganic phosphate, or at optimal uncoupler concentrations, respectively. Respiratory capacities are a measure of the upper bound of the rates of respiration, providing reference values for the diagnosis of health and disease, and for evaluation of the effects of Evolutionary background, Age, Gender and sex, Lifestyle and Environment (EAGLE).
  5. Some degree of uncoupling is a characteristic of energy-transformations across membranes. Uncoupling is caused by a variety of physiological, pathological, toxicological, pharmacological and environmental conditions that exert an influence not only on the proton leak and cation cycling, but also on proton slip within the proton pumps and the structural integrity of the mitochondria. A more loosely coupled state is induced by stimulation of mitochondrial superoxide formation and the bypass of proton pumps. In addition, uncoupling by application of protonophores represents an experimental intervention for the transition from a well-coupled to the noncoupled state of mitochondrial respiration.
  6. Respiratory oxygen consumption rates have to be carefully normalized to enable meta-analytic studies beyond the specific question of a particular experiment. Therefore, all raw data should be published in a supplemental table or open access data repository. Normalization of rates for the volume of the experimental chamber (the measuring system) is distinguished from normalization for (1) the volume or mass of the experimental sample, (2) the number of objects (cells, organisms), and (3) the concentration of mitochondrial markers in the chamber.
  7. The consistent use of terms and symbols discussed in this MitoEAGLE position statement will facilitate transdisciplinary communication and support further development of a database on bioenergetics and mitochondrial physiology. The present considerations are focused on studies with mitochondrial preparations. These will be extended in a series of reports on pathway control of mitochondrial respiration, the protonmotive force, respiratory states in intact cells, and harmonization of experimental procedures.

To co-authors, editors, reviewers, and readers
The global MitoEAGLE network made it possible to collaborate with more than 250 co-authors to reach consensus on the present manuscript. Nevertheless, we do not consider scientific progress to be supported by ‘declaration’ statements (other than on ethical or political issues). Our manuscript aims at providing arguments for further debate rather than pushing opinions. We hope to initiate a much broader process of discussion and want to raise the awareness on the importance of a consistent terminology for the reporting of scientific data in the field of bioenergetics, mitochondrial physiology and pathology. Quality of research requires quality of communication. Some established researchers in the field may not want to re-consider the use of jargon which has become established despite deficiencies of accuracy and meaning. In the long run, superior standards will become accepted. We hope to contribute to this evolutionary process, with an emphasis on harmonization rather than standardization.

Letter to the Editors of scientific journals

Dear Editors:
We would like to ask you for your opinion about the increasingly urgent issue of nomenclature in mitochondrial physiology.
With your collaboration our goal is to make publications with data on mitochondrial respiration more generally comprehensible and data more universally useful by bringing better standardization of nomenclature and data presentation to the field.
As the knowledge base and importance of mitochondrial physiology to human health expand, the necessity for harmonizing nomenclature concerning mitochondrial respiratory states and rates has become increasingly apparent. In the frame of COST Action MitoEAGLE, we endeavour to provide a balanced view on mitochondrial respiratory control and a critical discussion on reporting data of mitochondrial respiration. Uniform standards for evaluation of respiratory states and rates will ultimately support the development of databases of mitochondrial respiratory function in species, tissues, and cells.
A Working Group of the COST Action MitoEAGLE is preparing a document on ‘Mitochondrial respiratory states and rates’. The group is working on it with Open Access as a ‘MitoEAGLE preprint’ and the ultimate aim of publication in a scientific journal:
We would like to include your opinion as editor. We aim at providing a list of journals, from whom we received valuable feedback:
  1. Do you recognize a general need for a consensus on nomenclature and standards of reporting in the field of mitochondrial respiratory physiology?
  2. Can you provide comments and suggestions for the MitoEAGLE preprint: 'Mitochondrial respiratory states and rates’ from your point of view as an editor?
  3. Which further steps do you suggest towards implementing a harmonized terminology on mitochondrial states and rates in your editorial policy?
I thank you for your considerations.
With kind regards,

  • Dear Dr. Sharma,
Thank you for asking us to consider your paper, “Mitochondrial respiratory states and rates: Building blocks of mitochondrial physiology”, for Cell Metabolism. In principle, we find the topic to be relevant and the work to be of interest. It is, however, somewhat difficult for us, based on the information you sent, to determine whether the paper would be a strong candidate for Cell Metabolism. I would therefore recommend you send us the full paper to be evaluated as part of our in-house editorial review system.
Before submission of the article online at our EM site, please make sure that the article conforms to the format guidelines for the journal. Please mention this correspondence in the cover letter.
We look forward to reading the full paper.
Sincerely, Nikla Emambokus, Ph.D. - Editor-in-Chief, Cell Metabolism

  • Dear Dr. Sokolova
I have given this some thought and, after some delay for which I apologize, would like to offer a response. It is a personal one that in no way represents the views of editors of the JEB.
I can understand why some would wish to standardize nomenclature in mitochondrial physiology. Over the years, I have come across submissions and published papers that make claims about rates measured in "state 4" when the conditions actually did not fit the definition of state 4 established decades ago and widely accepted by mitochondrial biochemists.
However, there are terms in the list provided that are not generally accepted and I doubt whether these should be 'made standard by official declaration'. Adopting standard nomenclature would mean that deviation from it would be frowned upon by reviewers and editors. I would be more comfortable with the idea of having authors refer to (cite) your document should they wish to use any or all the terms in it. ::::: If, over time, people in the field choose to use the terms and cite the document, then the terms become accepted by consensus, rather than by declaration. This would be consistent with our wish for clarity and precision in the use of language in papers concerning mitochondrial physiology and biochemistry.
I hope this feedback shall be of some use.
With best wishes, Raul - Editor 'Journal of Experimental Biology'
