The influence of AX and ISO on the respiratory activities of RHM isolated from every group of rats.
| Parameters | Group № | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 (Control) | 2 (AX) | 3 (ISO) | 4 (ISO + AX) | |
| Vst2, ng-atom O min−1 mg−1 of protein |
7.25 ± 0.46 | 8.33 ± 0.47 | 4.52 ± 0.28 * | 7.11 ± 0.32 # |
| Vst3, ng-atom O min−1 mg−1 of protein |
43.70 ± 2.28 | 48.71 ± 4.11 | 34.36 ± 4.01 * | 40.98 ± 2.75 # |
| Vst4, ng-atom O min−1 mg−1 of protein |
7.48 ± 0.31 | 9.56 ± 0.37 | 12.58 ± 0.83 * | 8.51 ± 0.86 # |
| Respiratory control index | 5.84 ± 0.88 | 5.10 ± 0.51 | 2.73 ± 0.21 * | 4.81 ± 0.51 # |
The indicators of respiratory activity in states 2 (Vst.2), 3 (Vst.3), and 4 (Vst.4) were determined as the number of ng-oxygen atoms consumed by mitochondria per minute per mg of protein. RCI was calculated as a ration of Vst.3 to Vst.4. * p < 0.05, a significant difference compared to the control (group 1); # p < 0.05, a significant difference relative to RHM isolated from the group of rats that were injected with ISO (group 3).
