Note.— Mitochondrial hemes were extracted and analyzed, as described in the “Material and Methods” section. The values reported in the table are calculated from integrals of hemes A, B, and O. The value in control heart is an average of eight independent measurements, the values in patient heart are result of two independent measurements.
