Mitochondrial deficits are related with an altered ETC complex I activity. (A) Immunoblot for mitochondrial markers (Hsp60, VDAC/Porin, TOM20, COXIV) from CT and sPD cybrids. (B) Densitometric analysis of mitochondrial marker levels (n= 8, *P< 0.05, versus CT cybrids). (C) Mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I activity. Data are reported in nmol/min/mg as the mean ± SEM (n= 12; **P< 0.01, versus CT cybrids). (D) TOM20 immunostaining (green) of CT and sPD cybrids showing alterations in mitochondria distribution, elongation and interconnectivity in sPD cybrids. Hoechst 33342- stained nuclei are in blue (n= 3, ***P< 0.001, mitochondrial elongation sPD versus CT cybrids; *P< 0.05, mitochondrial interconnectivity sPD versus CT cybrids). Scale bar: 20 µm.
