Figure 1

Cellular mitochondrial respiration. In (A) intact cells and (B) permeabilized cells from healthy controls and sepsis patients at three different time points. Control ratios for maximal respiration of (C) the oxidative phosphorylation system (OXPHOS) and (D) electron-transfer system (ETS). Graphs presented as mean ± SD. *P < 0.05 as compared with controls; #P < 0.05 as compared with days 1 to 2. The different respiratory states are explained in the Methods section.
