Abstract: O2k-Protocol for Mitochondrial Respiration in Permeabilized Fibres: Needle Biopsies from Horse Skeletal Muscle

Methodological and conceptual features of highresolution respirometry are illustrated in an experiment with permeabilized fibres in the OROBOROS Oxygraph- 2k (O2k). The experiment demonstrates manual titrations applied to study respiratory capacity in permeabilized fibres. Application of the DatLab 4 software is shown for on-line data analysis MiPNet12.09 The following guideline describes the experimental protocol and includes a short discussion of results. The experiments was carried out by participants of an O2k-Course on HRR in December 2007 (IOC44; Schroecken, Austria).

Figure 1. Oxygen concentration ([μM] blue line) and oxygen flux per mg wet weight of muscle ([pmol∙s-1∙mg-1] red lines) in O2k chamber B, in permeabilized fibres from horse skeletal muscle with the standard titration protocol.

A multiple substrate-uncoupler-inhibitor titration protocol (Fig. 1) was developed for respiratory studies of permeabilized muscle fibres. The experiment was aimed at an assessment of a sequence of titrations, inducing stepwise defined respiratory states.


  1. LEAK state, L: Non-phosphorylating resting state with substrates for Complex I (glutamate+malate; GMN; without adenalytes, N).
  2. OXPHOS capacity with Complex I substrates, P: Respiratory capacity in the active coupled state (with ADP, GMD).
  3. Cytochrome c test for quality control: Further addition of cytochrome c yields a test for integrity of the outer mitochondrial membrane (loss of cytochrome c would be indicated by a stimulation of respiration).
  4. OXPHOS capacity with Complex I+II substrates, P: Respiratory stimulation by convergent electron flow from Complexes I+II at the Q-junction, in the coupled state after further addition of succinate, as an estimate of OXPHOS capacity (Gnaiger 2009).
  5. Electron transfer system (ETS) capacity with CI+II substrates, E: Uncoupling by FCCP titration (avoiding inhibition by high FCCP concentrations), as a test for limitation of OXPHOS relative to ETS capacity by the phosphorylation system.
  6. ETS capacity with CII substrate, E: ETS capacity with succinate, after blocking Complex I with rotenone.
  7. Residual oxygen consumption (ROX) due to oxidative side reactions in the permeabilized fibres, estimated after addition of Antimycin A (Inhibitor of Complex III).
