This study investigates the role of ANT in proton leak in muscle and liver mitochondria from WT and Grx2-/- mice, along with UCP3 protein levels using immunoblot analysis. Results provide insights into mitochondrial function and proton leak regulation.

Following a measure of state 3 respiration, mitochondria were sequentially treated with oligomycin (Oligo; 2.5 μg/mL), carboxyatractyloside (CAT; 5 μM), and antimycin A (4 μM). Oxygen consumption rate (OCR) values were corrected for background (antimycin A) respiration. n=4, mean±SEM, 2-way ANOVA with Fisher’s posthoc test. B) Contribution of ANT to proton leak in muscle mitochondria from WT and Grx2-/- mice. Following a measure of state 3 respiration, mitochondria were sequentially treated with oligomycin (Oligo; 2.5 μg/mL), carboxyatractyloside (CAT; 5 μM), and antimycin A (4 μM). OCR values were corrected for respiration not associated with the electron transport chain (antimycin A).
