Mitochondrial Respiration in Human Colorectal and Breast Cancer Clinical Material Is Regulated Differently
Figure 6
(a) Dependence of maximal rate of mitochondrial respiration (Vmax) compared with the HCC at different stages. Stage I was calculated as the mean of 13 patients, IIA, IIB - 13 patients, IIIB-4 patients, IIIC-3 patients and IVB-1 patient. Control colon tissue is obtained from 34 patients. Maximal respiration rate Vmax is compared with that in control tissue. Bars are SEM; . (b) Vmax in HCC patients based on disease state in follow-up setting. Seven patients out of 32 are confirmed to have succumbed to HCC (Vmax = 3.19 ± 0.34); 25 patients out of 32 stay in remission (Vmax = 1.70 ± 0.17), .
