States of mitochondrial respiration of skeletal muscle tissue obtained from older adults with compromised physical function administered supplemental niacin equivalents and placebo, each for 32 days. (A) State 2 respiration. (B) State 3 respiration under ADP stimulation with lipid substrates. (C) State 3 respiration with substrates focusing on Complex I. (D) State 3 respiration with parallel substrates focus on Complex I and II. (E) Uncoupled respiration under FCCP addition. (F) State 4o respiration uncoupled from ATP synthase. Values are represented as means ± SDs, n = 13. *P < 0.05. Abbreviations: FCCP, carbonylcyanide-4-(trifluoromethoxy)-phenylhydrazone; G, glutamate; M, malate; O, octanoyl-carnitine; S, succinate.
