Mitochondrial ATP production rates. An age-related decline in mitochondrial ATP production was observed using substrates glutamate plus malate (GM) (A), succinate plus rotenone (SR) (B), and palmitoyl-l-carnitine plus malate (PCM) (C) in sedentary subjects. These effects of age were not apparent in endurance-trained subjects. Data are presented as means ± SEM. *Pairwise comparisons revealed significant (P < 0.05) effects of age within activity groups; **significant (P < 0.05) main effects of training. ▪, young; □, older.
