SSB intake and effects on mitochondrial respiratory function. A) – D) glycolytic substrates, and E) – H) FA substrates. A- LEAK, B- OXPHOS, C- ETS capacity and D- excess E-R. The substrates used for these experiments included pyruvate (P), glutamate (G) and malate (M). E- LEAK, F- OXPHOS, G- ETS capacity and H- excess E-R. The substrates used for these experiments included octanoyl carnitine (Oct) and malate (M). A total number of n = 6 was used for all groups. Results are displayed as mean ± SEM and significance is shown as *P < 0.01 compared to Control.
