Decreased Bioenergetic Health Index in monocytes isolated from the pericardial fluid and blood of post-operative cardiac surgery patients

Abstract: SynopsisMonitoring the bioenergetics of leucocytes is now emerging as an important approach in translational research to detect mitochondrial dysfunction in blood or other patient samples. Using the mitochondrial stress test, which involves the sequential addition of mitochondrial inhibitors to adherent leucocytes, we have calculated a single value, the Bioenergetic Health Index (BHI), which represents the mitochondrial function in cells isolated from patients. In the present report, we assess the BHI of monoc… Show more

“…The strength of this study lies in the evaluation and utility of PBMCs as a surrogate for insulin-sensitive tissues, the procurement of which is difficult or prohibitive, especially in children. Similar mitochondrial studies are being done with monocytes from patients procured postoperatively after cardiac surgery [23]. Collectively, findings from this study set the foundation to further characterize mitochondrial molecular underpinnings as mechanisms of metabolic disease with minimal invasiveness.…”

“…The index represents the mitochondrial energy production corrected for oxygen consumption by sources which do not produce energy. The BHI has been developed using the Seahorse platform to measure mitochondrial function in peripheral immune cells 34 and is proposed as a biomarker of bioenergetic health 35–38 BHI=(reserve capacity×ATP-linked respiration)/(proton-leak respiration×non-mitochondrial OCR) Proton efflux rate : A measure of proton flux corrected for important assay factors.…”
