RESUMO

Mitochondria utilize the majority of oxygen (O2) consumed by aerobic organisms as the final electron acceptor for oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) but also to generate reactive oxygen species (mtROS) that participate in cell signaling, physiological hormesis, and disease pathogenesis. Simultaneous monitoring of mtROS production and oxygen consumption (Jo2) from tissue mitochondrial preparations is an attractive investigative approach, but it introduces dynamic changes in media O2 concentration ([O2]) that can confound experimental results and interpretation. We utilized high-resolution fluorespirometry to evaluate Jo2 and hydrogen peroxide release (Jh2o2) from isolated mitochondria (Mt), permeabilized fibers (Pf), and tissue homogenates (Hm) prepared from murine heart and skeletal muscle across a range of experimental [O2]s typically encountered during respirometry protocols (400-50 µM). Results demonstrate notable variations in Jh2o2 across tissues and sample preparations during nonphosphorylating (LEAK) and OXPHOS-linked respiration states at 250 µM [O2] but a linear decline in Jh2o2 of 5-15% per 50-µM decrease in chamber [O2] in all samples. Jo2 was generally stable in Mt and Hm across [O2]s above 50 µM but tended to decline below 250 µM in Pf, leading to wide variations in assayed rates of Jh2o2/O2 across chamber [O2]s and sample preparations. Development of chemical background fluorescence from the H2O2 probe (Amplex Red) was also O2 sensitive, emphasizing relevant calibration considerations. This study highlights the importance of monitoring and reporting the chamber [O2] at which Jo2 and Jh2o2 are recorded during fluorespirometry experiments and provides a basis for selecting sample preparations for studies addressing the role of mtROS in physiology and disease.

RESUMO

Lisano, JK, Smith, JD, Mathias, AB, Christensen, M, Smoak, P, Phillips, KT, Quinn, CJ, and Stewart, LK. Performance and health-related characteristics of physically active men using marijuana. J Strength Cond Res 33(6): 1659-1669, 2019-The influence of chronic marijuana use on the performance and health of physically active individuals has yet to be fully elucidated. The purpose of this study was to explore pulmonary function, aerobic and anaerobic fitness, strength, serum testosterone, cortisol, C-reactive protein (CRP), Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), 11-nor-9-carboxy-Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC-COOH), and 11-hydroxy-Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC-OH) concentrations in a physically active population either using or not using marijuana. Healthy, physically active males (N = 24) were compared based on their marijuana-use status: marijuana users (MU; n = 12) and nonusers (NU; n = 12). Statistical analysis (p = 0.05) revealed no difference between groups for age, body mass, body mass index, body fat, forced expiratory volume in 1 second percentage, VO2max, anaerobic power output, strength measures, testosterone, or cortisol concentrations. Although not statistically significant, MU showed a trend to fatigue to a greater percentage of absolute power output than NU from the beginning to the end of the Wingate Anaerobic Power Assessment (p = 0.08, effect size = 0.75). C-reactive protein in MU (1.76 ± 2.81 mg·L) and NU (0.86 ± 1.49 mg·L) was not significantly different (p = 0.60) but placed MU at moderate risk and NU at low risk for cardiovascular disease. Anaerobic fatigue was the only performance variable to show a trend for difference between groups. These results suggest that marijuana use in physically active males may not have significant effects on performance; however, it may be linked to elevated concentrations of CRP which place users at a higher risk for cardiovascular disease.
