ATP=adenosine triphosphate, CII=complex 2, FCCP=Carbonyl cyanide-4-(trifluoromethoxy) phenylhydrazone, MAX=FCCP-linked respiration, OCR=oxygen consumption rate, OXPHOS=oxidative phosphorylation capacity, RCR=respiratory control ratio.

Respiration is measured as oxygen consumption rate (pmol/min/mg protein [platelets], pmol/min/250,000 cells [monocytes], pmol/min/mg dry weight [permeabilized fibers], pmol/min/5 µg mitochondrial protein [left vastus and cardiac tissues]).

In blood cell respiration, Reserve capacity is calculated as the difference between MAX and Basal respiration and Leak is calculated as the difference between Oligo and A/R respiration.

RCRs are calculated as ADP-stimulated State 3 respiration divided by oligomycin-linked respiration (RCR-A) and by MAX respiration divided by oligomycin-linked respiration (RCR-F).

In permeabilized muscle fiber preparations, basal respiration was measured with no added substrates, leak was measured with malate added, complex I OXPHOS capacity was measured using pyruvate, glutamate, and malate with a saturating amount of ADP. Complex I+II OXPHOS capacity was measured using complex I substrates with succinate added. Cytochrome C Membrane Integrity was measured with Complex I+II substrates with cytochrome c added. MAX respiration was measured using complex I+II substrates with FCCP titrations added. Non-mitochondrial respiration was measured with MAX substrates with antimycin-A and rotenone substrates added.

In isolated mitochondrial preparations, CII respiration was measured using succinate and rotenone as substrates and using ADP, oligomycin, and FCCP injections to measure State 3, oligomycin, and MAX, respectively.
