Bufei Jianpi formula (BJF) restored mitochondrial respiration in cigarette smoke extract (CSE)-exposed L6 cells. (A) Schematic representation of the mitochondrial functional assay, and (B) mitochondrial respiration under CSE conditions. L6 cells were treated with 10% CSE, 10% CSE +10% BJF-containing serum, or 10% CSE + 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide (AICAR) for 24 h. The cells were then switched to unbuffered Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium supplemented with pyruvate, followed by real-time analysis of oxygen consumption rate (OCR). Analysis of (C) basal respiration, (D) adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production, (E) proton leak, and (F) maximal respiration. Data are presented as mean ± SD. ∗∗p < 0.01, ∗p < 0.05 vs. control group; ## p < 0.01, # p < 0.05 vs. model group; ΔΔ P < 0.01, Δ P < 0.05 vs. BJF group.
