Comparative mitochondrial physiology strongly relies on quantitative data sets for comparison of OXPHOS capacities and respiratory control patterns between species and tissues. Combination and interpretation of a wide variety of studies requires standardization of respiratory protocols, implementation of quality control criteria, and consistency of normalization. Previously, we described a reference method for the application of a cytochrome c threshold as exclusion criterion in mitochondrial OXPHOS analyses [1]. Alaskan sled dogs (N=6) were studied 72 to 120 h after finishing a competitive 1,000 mile race within less than nine days. Permeabilized fibers (0.81-1.28 mg Β± 0.12 SD wet weight per assay) were prepared from needle biopsies and immediately studied by high-resolution respirometry [2] using 12 chambers in parallel (Oroboros Oxygraph-2k). Compared to human skeletal muscle fibers, the canine samples were more delicate to handle, highly sticky and appeared to be fragile, disintegrating to various degrees during substrate-uncoupler-inhibitor titration (SUIT) protocols in mt-respiration medium MiR06Cr. Two substrate-uncoupler-inhibitor titration protocols were applied (Fig. 1). SUIT1 emphasized substrate control with fatty acid oxidation (FAO) versus carbohydrate oxidation capacity, whereas the focus of SUIT2 was on coupling control with CI-linked substrates. Both protocols were designed to provide a common reference state of CI&II-linked ET capacity, in comparison to separate Complex I- and Complex II-linked substrate states (CI versus CII).

CI&II-linked ET capacity was 262Β±41 pmolβˆ™s-1βˆ™mg-1 Ww independent of the presence or absence of 0.2 mM octanoyl carnitine (FAO). This is the highest value so far reported for mammalian skeletal muscle. Top human endurance athletes have a CI&II-linked ET capacity approaching 200 pmolβˆ™-11βˆ™mg-1 Ww [3], compared to 153Β±19 pmolβˆ™s-1βˆ™mg-1 Ww in competitive racing horses [4].
