... the sensitivity of mitochondrial respiration to nitric oxide (i.e. the NO IC 50 ), and assessed the mitochondrial response to anoxia–reoxygenation (AR). Acute exposure to 20°C increased maximal mitochondrial respiration by ∼55%; however, the mitochondria's complex I respiratory control ratio was 17% lower and ROS...
