Isorhamnetin do not affect respiration and ROS metabolism of the P. anserina WT. (A) Complex I-dependent OCR of mitochondria from WT cultures treated with isorhamnetin (Isor, n = 4 biological replicates, each with three to six technical replicates) compared to mitochondria from DMSO-treated cultures (Con; n = 3 biological replicates, each with five technical replicates). State 4 OCR of DMSO-treated mitochondria was set to 100%. (B) Representative BN-PAGE analysis of isolated mitochondria from WT cultures treated with isorhamnetin (Isor) compared to DMSO (Con) treated. The CI1CIII2CIV0-2 (S0-2) supercomplexes, dimeric complexes III and V (III2 and V2) as well as monomeric complexes I1, IV1, and V1 are visualized by Coomassie staining. (C) Densitometric quantification of relative protein levels of ETC complexes and supercomplexes in mitochondrial extracts from isorhamnetin-treated cultures compared to DMSO-treated cultures. Optical densities of the different complexes were normalized to the total Coomassie staining of the corresponding lane. The mean abundance in the DMSO control was set to 1. (D) Qualitative determination of superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide release in P. anserina WT cultures (n = 4) treated with isorhamnetin (Isor) or DMSO (Con) by a histochemical staining protocol using NBT and DAB. (E) Quantification of H2O2 release measurement from P. anserina PaMth1_OEx cultures treated with quercetin (Quer; n = 4) compared to DMSO (Con; n = 4) treatment. The mean release of the DMSO-treated cultures was set to 1. (F) Representative “in-gel” SOD (PaSOD1 and PaSOD2) activity staining, (G) representative “in-gel” peroxidase activity staining from total protein extract of P. anserina WT cultures treated with isorhamnetin (Isor) or DMSO (Con).
