This updated volume provides a concise set of protocols on the conceptual principles and practical considerations pertinent to research in mitochondrial function. Driven by the impact of drug- and environmental chemical-induced disturbances on mitochondrial function, hereditary deficiencies, and the age-related decline in bioenergetic performance, this book explores the latest approaches developed in this field by presenting practical principles and assays for quantitative assessments of various parameters reflecting aspects of mitochondrial bioenergetics. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step and readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Authoritative and up-to-date, Mitochondrial Bioenergetics: Methods and Protocols, Third Edition serves as an ideal guide for scientists endeavoring to enhance the quality of mitochondrial research.

In this volume expert researchers in the field detail the many methods for further research into regulation of mitochondrial function. Chapters focus on mitochondria with other cellular components, discussing how these interactions influence the dynamics of mitochondrial structure and biogenesis. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and key tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Authoritative and practical, Mitochondrial Regulation: Methods and Protocols seeks to aid advanced undergraduates, graduates, postgraduates, and beginning researchers in the areas of molecular and cellular biology, biochemistry and bioenergetics.

This second edition volume expands on the previous edition with chapters discussing the latest developments and research initiatives in mitochondrial functions. The chapters in this book explore topics such as high-resolution fluorespirometry and OXPHOS protocols in human cells, analysis of mitochondrial oxygen consumption, mitochondrial bioenergetics, and mitochondrial dynamics in mammalian cells. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.Cutting-edge and practical, Mitochondrial Bioenergetics: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition is a valuable resource for students, and practitioners in the pharmaceutical sciences, environmental sciences, and mitochondrial genetics industries.
