Animal group	N	State 3 respirationb	State 4 respirationb
Young acute control	5	9.62 ± 0.84	2.05 ± 0.39
Young acute MPD	5	4.20 ± 0.64*	1.40 ± 0.15
Young chronic control	6	10.55 ± 0.71	1.65 ± 0.12
Young chronic MPD	5	10.33 ± 0.69	1.80 ± 0.11

^aSee legends under Table 1 for animal treatment protocols.

^bRate of mitochondrial oxygen consumption in presence (state 3) or absence (state 4) of ADP (150 μM). Data are expressed as mean ± SEM in nmol/min/mg protein.

*Significantly lower than the acute saline control group (P < 0.001).
