Did you know that keeping your mitochondria fit is essential for quality of life, brain and muscle function, and resistance against preventable, immunological, and age-related degenerative diseases?

The capacity of cellular oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) — a direct measure of mitochondrial function — is a result of evolution, age, gender, lifestyle, and environment (EAGLE). Increasingly, western lifestyle and aging contribute to mitochondrial dysfunction and the current epidemic of preventable diseases, including neurodegenerative and cardiovascular diseases, obesity, diabetes, and various types of cancer. The mitObesity epidemic leads to multimorbidity in aging and threatens to overwhelm the capacity of healthcare systems.

Training in mitochondrial physiology and bioenergetics, therefore, has high relevance to society. The ‘Blue Book’ on Mitochondrial Pathways and Respiratory Control presents a fundamental introduction to OXPHOS analysis for students and researchers in life sciences ― from evolutionary biology to medical and environmental applications. It combines concepts of bioenergetics and biochemical pathways related to mitochondrial core energy metabolism, provides the basis for substrate-uncoupler-inhibitor titration (SUIT) protocols, and updates the terminology consistent with the MitoEAGLE white paper on Mitochondrial Physiology.

It is now our responsibility to transfer the enthusiasm for innovation, reproducibility, and quality in science, and to translate mitochondrial research into visionary healthcare solutions.

A guide through the chapters


  1. Real-time OXPHOS analysis. — Richard Altmann’s bioblasts are the systematic unit of bioenergetics and chemiosmotic coupling studied in living cells and mitochondrial preparations. A rigorous understanding of mitochondrial respiratory control relies on a clear concept of metabolic states and rates, accurate measurement and normalization of oxygen flux, and analysis of mitochondrial pathways.
  2. Respiratory states and rates: coupling control. — A concept-driven terminology frames our perception of the meaning of respiratory states and rates, from ROUTINE respiration of living cells to the capacity of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) determined in mitochondrial preparations, electron transfer (ET) capacity, LEAK respiration, and the distinction of uncoupled, noncoupled, or dyscoupled respiration.
  3. Normalization of rate: flow, flux, and flux ratios. — ‘The challenges of measuring respiratory rate are matched by those of normalization’ (Gnaiger et al 2000). The effect of metabolic control variables on flow or flux can be expressed by normalization for rate in a reference state, and is evaluated relative to a background state. The concept of flux control efficiency is based on principles of thermodynamics and is guided by statistical considerations, to remove the bias of the classical respiratory control ratio.
  4. NADH-linked pathways through Complex CI: respiratory pathway control with pyruvate, glutamate, malate. — Substrate combinations feeding electrons into the ET system through NADH have been considered to reflect physiological respiratory states in mitochondrial preparations. These protocols ignored the importance of cataplerotic metabolite depletion in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle.
  5. S-pathway through Complex CII, F-pathway through CETF, Gp-pathway through CGpDH. — Succinate as the substrate of CII is at a level comparable to NADH as the substrate for CI. Too many textbooks and publications propagate the error of comparing NADH in the N-pathway with FADH2 in the S-pathway ― together with fumarate, FADH2 is a product but not a substrate of CII.
  6. NS-pathway through Complexes CI & CII: convergent electron transfer at the Q-junction. — The term ‘electron transport chain’ is a misnomer in bioenergetics, conceiling the convergent pathway architecture of the electron transfer system (ETS). This has direct implications on the design of substrate-uncoupler-inhibitor titration (SUIT) protocols, for reconstitution of TCA cycle function, and sequential separation of branches of mitochondrial pathways for OXPHOS analysis.
  7. Additivity of convergent electron transfer. — OXPHOS capacity depends on the degree of additivity of pathways converging at the Q-junction. Paradoxically, current concepts on interaction do not agree whether to categorize incompletely additive effects as synergistic or antagonistic. A new mathematical definition of additivity bridges the gap between these apparently incompatible models of interaction.
  8. Protonmotive pressure and respiratory control. — Why is thermodynamics scary? The driving force of chemical reactions is confusingly called an energy (Gibbs energy), whereas it is actually an isomorphic force, linked to the electric and chemical terms of the protonmotive force pmF. The gas law represents chemical force and gas pressure. Flux-force relations are non-linear. Why should we consider Fick’s linear law of diffusion and protonmotive pressure in the control of flux?

Mitochondrial physiology is part of our lives. Mitochondrial fitness — the capacity of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) — is essential for the quality of your life, for brain and muscle function, for resistance against preventable and age-related degenerative diseases. Evolutionary background, age, gender (sex), lifestyle, and environmental factors (EAGLE) determine mitochondrial fitness, which is OXPHOS capacity and multiple mitochondrial functions. Comprehensive OXPHOS analysis is vital for understanding your cells, vital for our health care systems, and vitally deserves reliability and reproducibility of analytical and diagnostic studies.
The Blue Book on Mitochondrial Pathways and Respiratory Control presents a fundamental introduction to OXPHOS analysis. It combines concepts of bioenergetics and biochemical pathways related to mitochondrial (mt) core energy metabolism and provides the basis for the substrate-uncoupler-inhibitor titration (SUIT) protocols in high-resolution respirometry, which have been established since publication of the first edition of MitoPathways in 2007 (Figure 1).
Figure 2.
Application of SUIT protocols for real-time OXPHOS analysis is a component of metabolic phenotyping (Figure 2). OXPHOS analysis extends conventional bioenergetics to the level of mitochondrial physiology for functional diagnosis in health and disease. The Oroboros O2k for HRR has the high signal stability and unrestricted flexibility of titrations suited for application of elementary and complex SUIT protocols.
Since 2007, research in mitochondrial physiology sparked a revolution of bioenergetics by experimental design that appreciates the convergent architecture of the electron transfer system (ETS) with multiple branches of mitochondrial pathways converging at the Q-junction, leading to a novel concept of additivity introduced in the new Chapter 7 of the Blue Book. These advancements are documented by >1 000 reports listed under 'NS-pathway control state' in MitoPedia. To study respiratory control at the Q-junction, SUIT protocols are applied with physiological substrate cocktails, particularly NADH-linked substrates (N) in combination with succinate (NS), fatty acids (FNS), and glycerophosphate (FNSGp), which have been introduced for the first time in the 1st edition of MitoPathways (2007).
Since then, ‘MitoPedia’ was initiated and the COST Action MitoEAGLE flies. 666 coauthors joined forces to present a harmonized nomenclature on Mitochondrial Physiology (Bioenerg Commun 2020.1), with an emphasis on conceptual consistency for establishing a quality-controlled database on mitochondrial respiratory physiology. The 5th edition of MitoPathways gained from this collaboration. Many terms and symbols are simplified or presented in a more explicit form compared to the 2014 edition. Terms and iconic symbols develop meaning in context. Contextual meaning is best communicated by stories told in entertaining lectures, or by equations even if they turn off the most motivated student. Motivation is never enough. We need passion, persistence, resilience to transpose equations, terms and stories into the domain of personal experience, gaining perspective from perception to conception. The best scientific experience is the experiment driven by a hypothetical story written in clear words and forged into meaningful equations. This may provide a guideline to the critical discussion of the ergodynamic concept of the protonmotive force and chemiosmotic pressure, inspired by the Grey Book of Peter Mitchell and added as the new Chapter 8 of the Blue Book.
Mitochondria are the structural and functional elementary units of cell respiration. MitoPathways is an element of the Oroboros Ecosystem driven by high-resolution respirometry and shaping mitochondrial physiology. A mosaic evolves by combining the elements into a picture of modern mitochondrial respiratory physiology.
I thank all collaborators of the NextGen-O2k project and the authors and coauthors of various publications emerging from international cooperations, particularly the Horizon 2020 funded COST Action CA15203 MitoEAGLE. Without the team at Oroboros Instruments, including our partners in electromechanical engineering (O2k; WGT-Elektronik, Kolsass, Austria) and DatLab software development the experimental advances on MitoPathways would not have been possible.

  1. A colour code is used with red and green in analogy to the states at a traffic light: at red, the motor is running in neutral gear (uncoupled) at minimum turnover without output (producing some heat) just to keep the engine running; at green, the motor is switched into gear and driven in a coupled state with full output. The blue colour is used to indicate a state of maximum input in neutral gear, or pressing fully the accelerator and the clutch simultaneously, which yields maximum turnover without output and produces a maximum of heat. The analogy for coupling in OXPHOS and in cars has its limitations but may help to memories the red/green colour code - you may think of it when your car is in a LEAK at the next red traffic light.

  3. The metabolic maps in this and the following chapters have been modified and extended in comparison to previous editions. Added substrates are printed in blue in contrast to intermediates printed in black. CI-linked substrates and intermediates are shown with white background, whereas added succinate and consecutively formed fumarate are distinguished with a yellow background (FADH2 and the corresponding arrows are emphasized by yellow shades). Intermediates with grey background are considered to be present at low concentrations due to metabolite depletion, whereas products with blue background are considered to accumulate in the matrix space or in equilibrium with the large volume of incubation medium or to increase in equilibrium with the supplied substrate.
  4. Schwerzmann et al (1989) Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 86:1583-7. - “Of the substrates used here, pyruvate/malate activates the chain at complex I, glutamate/malate and succinate at complexes II and III, ..” - This consideration of glutamate&malate requires correction.
  5. Ponsot et al (2005) J Cell Physiol 203:479-86. - (a) Respiration (State 3) in permeabilized fibres with malate alone gave 25-50 % of the flux with pyruvate+malate. This needs to be discussed in terms of endogenous mitochondrial substrates, which interfere to an unknown degree with the kinetics of respiration after addition of exogenous substrates, or the activity of malic enzyme. (b) Maximal respiration rates in muscle should be evaluated at saturating or high Pi, since at a Pi concentration of 3 mM OXPHOS respiration may be phosphate limited.
  6. Hulbert et al (2006) J Comp Physiol B 176:93-105. Addition of ‘sparking malate concentrations’. This term can probably be derived from the misconception that tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates are conserved during respiration of isolated mitochondria. 380 µM malate in conjunction with 2.4 mM pyruvate were used, which makes a comparison difficult between different tissues and different species: the low substrate concentrations may limit PMP flux at various degrees in the different sources of mitochondria, and GMP or PGMP may support higher fluxes than PMP at tissue- and species-specific degrees.

FADH2 is not produced within the mitochondrial matrix. Electron transfer takes place from the mitochondrial inner membrane flavoprotein-linked glycerophosphate dehydrogenase complex to CoQ.
