The concentration of oxidized mitochondrial cytochrome a,a3 decreased at all work loads relative to resting state and demonstrated a near-linear relationship with muscle VO2 (r2 = 0.99).

Overview

Hypothesis-generating for O2 delivery limiting VO2max in canine muscle; leaves open human translation.

Structured PICO

P
Population
20 adult dogs, anesthetized with alpha-chloralose, intubated, and mechanically ventilated on room air
I
Intervention
5-minute electrical stimulation periods at rates of 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, or 12 stimuli/s
C
Comparator
Resting state
O
Outcome
Oxidation-reduction state of cytochrome a,a3 monitored by near-infrared spectroscopysurrogate

In canine skeletal muscle, maximal exercise leads to near-complete reduction of cytochrome a,a3, indicating that VO2max is primarily limited by O2 delivery rather than mitochondrial ATP production.
