The medical community and our society are becoming increasingly aware of the role of mitochondria in pharmacology, diseases, and healthy aging. In contrast, mitochondrial diagnostics remain largely neglected in clinical trials: diagnostic services fail to support large- and small-scale projects and pilot studies. Quality control β necessary for clinical trials and highly deserved in any scientific study to ensure reproducibility [1] β is hardly affordable in the typical research laboratory [2].
In a meta-analysis of human skin fibroblasts, high-resolution respirometry and polarography covering cell senescence and the human age range were compared with multiwell respirometry to evaluate published data on mitochondrial function in relation to clinical diagnostic standards [3]. The common coupling control protocol measures ROUTINE respiration of living cells followed by sequential titrations of oligomycin, uncoupler, and inhibitors of electron transfer [4].
Bioenergetic cluster analysis BCA increases the resolution of outliers. Isolinear clusters are separated by variations in quantities that correlate with rates, whereas heterolinear clusters fall on different regression lines. Dispersed clusters are separated by critical threshold values. BCA provides guidelines for establishing quality control for bioenergetic databases in mitochondrial physiology. The present example on human fibroblasts as models of diseases may serve as a reference for bioenergetic mitochondrial diagnostics complementary to genomic or proteomic standards.
