Mitochondrial function and respiratory dysfunction after short periods of ischemia has been implicated as major determinants of ischemic cell injury [1]. In vitro models of isolated mitochondria subjected to anoxia-reoxygenation are routinely used to study mitochondrial abnormalities and pharmacological approaches to attenuate ischemic injury [2]. Mice and rat mitochondria are by far the most common animal model in this area of research. We here show, in agreement with a plethora of other studies, that respiration of mice and rat mitochondria decreases after a brief period of in vitro anoxia-reoxygenation, an effect most often related to ROS injury of Complex I. Conversely, human mitochondria demonstrate a unique feature with increased respiration after anoxia-reoxygenation. This effect is increasing with longer anoxic periods, independent of uncoupling of the mitochondrial membrane potential or potassium channel activation and cannot be inhibited by in vitro application of antioxidants. The increase in respiration is also present regardless of the route of electron-entry into the ET-pathway and cannot be inhibited by any known inhibitors of the mitochondrial complexes. Instead, the differing responses seem to be associated with interspecific differences in the function of cytochrome c oxidase.
